High pressure behaviour of ammonium carbonate monohydrate
A number of compounds crystallise in the NH3-H2O-CO2 ternary system, including ammonium carbonates and carbamates, these being closely related to the water-deficient compound... -
Neutron scattering study on noncollinear antiferromagnets D019 hcp-Mn3X (X = ...
Currently, we are reaching capacity limits in conventional Si-based memory devices, due to restrictions on further miniaturization. The concept of antiferromagnetic spin... -
Unraveling the magnetic structure of Na2RuO3
Special attention has been devoted to the honeycomb iridates (Na, Li)2IrO3, in which SOC, intrinsic geometric frustration, and other competing interactions favor a highly... -
Investigating the magnetic structure of the solid solution PrCr(1-x)MnxO3
Rare-earth (A= La, Ce, Nd, Pr) orthochromites (A CrO3) and orthomanganites (A MnO3) are of interest due to the number of unusual physical properties they possess, displaying... -
Magnetoelectric coupling in complex systems
Coupling ferromagnatism and ferroelectriocity in a single phase material at or near room temperature has significant potential for the development of hybrid memory combining the... -
INS of Ln(trensal-thiphene)
We have synthesised the series of lanthanide complexes Ln(trensal-thiophene), where Ln = Er, Dy, Yb and H3trensal = 2,2,2-tris(salicylideneimino)trimethylamine. These... -
Probing hybridization strength and homogeneity of valence mixing in magnetica...
The compounds we want to study belong to the well-known tetragonal RM2X2 family (R: rare earth, M: d element, X: Ge, Si). In EuCu2(SixGe1-x)2, the Eu valence changes, as a... -
Understanding the barocaloric effect in Mn3NiN using inelastic neutron scatte...
Materials with large caloric effects offer the opportunity to replace current refrigeration technologies that require the compression of hazardous gases. Whilst magnetocaloric... -
Stochastic Cation Dynamics in Photovoltaic Hybrid Perovskites under Pressure
Methylammonium lead iodide (MAPI) is one the most promising materials for photovoltaics. Notwithstanding the above, access to its phase diagram and the underlying structural... -
Multi-phonon scattering and anharmonicity in zinc oxide
Understanding the thermal conductivity of zinc oxide is of central importance in assessing its potential for a wide variety of applications in optoelectronics, power electronics...
