This proposal seeks to establish the importance of orbital ordering on the stability of the tetragonal phase in Cu doped SrRiuO3. Orbital ordering is believed to be a...

We plan to investigate the use of the isotope 193Ir for studies of magnetism in iridium containing materials using Sr2IrO4 as a test case. This isotope is important for neutron...

The study of skyrmion (magnetic vortex) lattice formation below ~30 K in chiral magnet MnSi has gotten very good attention in the recent times. Few of the key questions concerns...

Via chi¿¿(Q,E) we aim to investigate the dependence of the Kondo temperature TK of YbInCu4 on external pressure and substitution. YbInCu4 undergoes a first-order isostructural...

One-dimensional magnetic materials have been widely studied due to their often remarkable ground states and excitations. Recent study of the triclinic form of CoV2O6 brannerite...

The proposing team is interested in exploring the low-temperature quantum "rattling" dynamics of helium atom(s) trapped in water-based cages (namely the so-called "clathrate...

We have reported magnetic structure of Sr3NiIrO6, which gives two possible solutions. Our theory shows that reported magnetic structure is not ground state magnetic structure....

Zeolites are porous framework materials that have active catalytic sites inside narrow channels. Unwanted reactions create coke in the pores which may block access to the active...

Molecular nanomagnets containing 4f ions are attracting an increasing interest because of their large magnetic anisotropy and slow relaxation of magnetization originating from...

This proposal is part of our research programme to explore novel phases stabilized by the combined effect of spin-orbit interaction and electron correlations. Here we aim to...

We request 5 days on VESUVIO in order to examine the sensitivity of 87Sr (n,) resonances and DINS to the metal-insulator and liquid-solid transitions in the Sr-NH3...

We have recently prepared mesoporous forms of various metals oxides. In some cases the imposition of a mesostructure changes other properties of the material significantly. One...

One-dimensional (1D) or two-dimensional (2D) topologies between magnetic ions generally favour strong magnetic anisotropy and offer exotic fundamental states and other phenomena...

Unconventional superconductivity has recently been suggested in the new class of iron-based superconductors in which unusual gap symmetries have been observed together with...

The present proposal is part of a larger EPSRC project advancing the vibrational spectroscopy of silicate glasses. The project involves the techniques of IR and Raman...

To our knowledge, the length of the U¿H single bond has never been accurately measured, at least not in a molecular compound by single-crystal neutron diffraction. We currently...

The high-pressure form of solid water, ice III, is the equilibrium phase in contact with liquid water at pressures from about 2.0 - 3.5 kbar. Consequently, its properties are...

This is an experiment to measure the crystal structures and the thermal evolution of the magnetic structures of two new layered oxide chalcogenides. In Ba2CoO2Cu2Te2 we will...

The formation of silk fibres in both spiders and silkworms is characterized by a conversion of short range ordered structures in solution into long range ordered beta-sheet rich...

The proposed experiment at ISIS aims at the characterization of the vibrational properties of ammonium borohydride, NH4BH4, which possess the highest gravimetric H density (~25...
