We propose a neutron diffraction experiment to investigate substrate control of multiferroic domains in (111)-oriented BiFeO3 films. This is a continuation of a series...

Recent single crystal work on α-CoV2O6 has found a significant enhancement of the nuclear Bragg peaks on entering the low temperature antiferromagnetic states. This...

UN is a prominent “advanced nuclear fuel”, due to its high uranium density and good thermal conductivity. However, its dissolution in water is worse than that of UO2 and is...

Test of the NIMS low temperature pressure cell on WISH.

The spin Jahn-Teller effect stabilises 3D magnetic order in an otherwise frustrated system via magnetoelastic coupling, spontaneously at the magnetic phase transition. Examples...

We propose to perform neutron diffraction experiments under high-pressure and magnetic field condition for multiferroic DyMnO3, using WISH beamline in combination with...

Control of magnetism purely with electric field is a key goal of spintronics as it offers low power alternatives to current computer memory devices. The piezomagnetic effect...

Hexaferrites are well known for their applications as permanent magnet and memory devices. In recent years, the interest in hexaferrite has grown from the point of view of...

We propose to probe the development of the magnetic correlations in SrTb2O4 using WISH neutron diffractometer. In a magnetic sense, SrTb2O4 consists of triangular zig-zag...

CeRhIn5 shows the rich phase diagram with superconductivity, spin density wave and charge density wave. The appearance of the Fermi surface nesting inside the antiferromagnetic...

The aim of the proposed experiment is to use single-crystal neutron magnetic scattering experiments to study spin correlations in the correlated paramagnet regime of a chiral...

This proposal is part of our research programme to explore novel ground states in frustrated quantum magnets. Strong spin-orbit coupling is predicted to stabilize composite...

Transition metal hydrides are critically involved in many stoichiometric and catalytic organometallic reactions, such as hydrogenation. In these reactions a crucial step is the...

One of the major themes in solid-state physics is the realisation of exotic types of relativistic electrons which travel at speeds much slower than the speed of light. These...

Valuable information is lost when the focus is put only on the average unit cell and not the long-range order of the whole crystal. Determination of the long-range ordering can...

UAu2 has an exceedingly simple crystalline structure comprised of columns of U arranged in a triangular lattice, raising the prospect of magnetic frustration. There is a clear...

Our aim is to study with high resolution neutron powder diffraction the two orthorhombic phases of Mn2TeO6 at RT, so as to understand the origin of the observed structural...

In recent years, there has been a large research interest in noncentrosymmetric systems in part due to the exotic physics these systems display. Examples of chiral magnets...

PbCuTe2O6 consists of a 3-dimensional arrangement of spin-1/2 Cu2+ ions coupled by 3 interactions. The 1st neighbor interaction couples Cu2+ into isolated triangles, 2nd nearest...

Geometrically frustrated lanthanide gallium garnets find practical applications as low temperature magnetocalorics, but the competing interactions in these materials may give...
