Magnetic Structure of the double charge ordered multiferroic perovskites HgMn...
Understanding the magnetic structure of the perovskite manganites has been a significant field of research over the past 20 year due of their numerous technologically relevant... -
A high pressure study of the novel hybrid improper ferroelectric HgMn7O12
We have recently discovered how a novel type of hybrid improper ferroelectricity can arise in the perovskite HgMn3Mn412. This ferroelectricity is driven by a highly unusual... -
Spin and cation order in AMn3B4O12 perovskites
A-site-ordered perovskite oxides with formula AA'3B4O12 have a rich variety of physical and chemical properties. Most have Jahn-Teller active Cu2+ or Mn3+ at the square-planar... -
High Pressure Structural Study of BiCoO3
BiCoO3 is a perovskite type material recently prepared by high pressure-high temperature synthesis in Kyoto. It has a distorted acentric perovskite structure with order of high... -
High-pressure neutron diffraction studies of valence transitions in ACu3Fe4O12
Two new A-site ordered perovskite structure oxides, CaCu3Fe4O12 and LaCu3Fe4O12, were recently synthesized under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions in Kyoto. These... -
Structural study of BiNiO3 at high pressures and low temperatures
BiNiO3, synthesized at high pressure, has the unusual charge distribution Bi3+0.5Bi5+0.5Ni2+O3 with ordering of Bi3+ and Bi5+ charges on the A sites of a highly distorted... -
Probing Charge, Orbital and Magnetic Ordering in the Solid Solution of the Mu...
Multiferroics materials where an electric polarisation may be switch by the application of a magnetic field will undoubtedly be the materials of choice for future...
