This proposal describes a muSR experiment for studying a diffusive nature of Li ions in novel anode material for Li-ion batteries. The target compound, LixY2Ti2O5S2 (LxYTOS,...

Rare-earth delafossites were recently proposed as promising candidates for the realization of an effective S = 1/2 quantum spin liquid on the triangular lattice [1, 2]. In...

The geometric frustration, combined with other parameters like the net quantum spin state (1/2, 1 or 3/2) is expected to give rise the exotic magnetic ground states such as the...

We plan to study the non-thermal microwave (MW) effects on H2O2 through its reaction with muonium under MW irradiation. The key objectives are 1) for the first time definitively...

The recent interest in carbon-based materials like graphene stimulated a deeper analysis of the magnetism in graphite defects. In a previous µSR experiment we observed an...

This is a continuation proposal describing an "in situ" muSR experiment on hydrogen storage materials. For the two previous beam-time allocated for RB1510262 and RB1520259, we...

Magnetoelectric materials, combining properties associated with magnetic and ferroelectric memory applications (e.g. in hard drives) are difficult to prepare but would represent...

In this proposal, we want to explore the superconducting properties of noncentrosymmetric superconductors Re5.5Ta along with pure Re (99.99%) to understand the role of Re in...

We propose a detailed study of the motional dynamics of Mu and the low temperature Mu0-like states in anatase and rutile Titanium Dioxide (TiO2). An initial study on only rutile...

Properties of graphene that make it an important material are its exceptionally high conductivity, massless fermions and a high velocity of electrons near the Dirac points....

We have performed further measurements on Dy2Ti2O7 and confirmed the observation of magnetic charge transport. Given the time constraints of our previous experiment not all...

Common d5 pyrochlore iridates, A2Ir2O7 or A2Ir2O6O’, are reported to have long range magnetic order based on muSR experiment. Only Pr2Ir2O7 has been identified as a metallic...

The proposal is to measure the low-energy spin dynamics of the ferromagnetic superconductor UGe2 at the pressure which maximizes superconducting transition temperature and at...

At the heart of understanding collective phenomena in condensed matter physics is the search for emergent phases of matter formed by strong frustrations in geometrically...

FeSe is a superconductor below 8.5 K. Very recently, we have found superconductivity in a wide compositional range in a series of layered lithium iron selenide hydroxides....

Recently we have investigated Pr2Pd3Ge5 and Pr2Rh3Ge5 compounds which form in the orthorhombic structure. Pr2Pd3Ge5 exhibits two magnetic transitions at TN1 = 7.5 K and TN2 =...

Li2IrSi3 crystallizes to a novel trigonal structure with the space group P31c, which consists of an alternate stacking of planar silicon kagome planes and Li and Ir planes. The...

The aim of the experiment is to study, in low magnetic fields, the very slow spin fluctuation (MHz range) present in the normal phase of La0.8Y0.2LaFe1-xMnxAsO0.89F0.11...

This proposal aims to characterise the spin dynamics of three Pr-based pyrochlores that may be realisations of quantum spin ice materials. The lower moment and larger wave...

While investigating the ordering and magnetic dynamics in La2-xSrxCoO4 we found some intriguing behaviour for samples with small x, which would imply that the phase diagram is...
