The superexchange interaction - in which the intervening oxygen mediates magnetism between two partially filled d shells- is well described by the semi-empirical... -
Magnetism and electronic structure of 3d 5d double perovskites
Emerging technologies require increasingly unusual functional materials and so understanding the origins of complex magnetic and electronic behaviour, and how these can be... -
Diamond anvil cell for a combined X-ray and neutron diffraction study of glycine
High pressure is a powerful thermodynamic tool, like temperature, to vary the properties and structure of materials. X-ray and neutron diffraction can be used to measure certain... -

Investigation of the phase diagram of Ba1-xNaxTi2Sb2O (WISH portion)
We propose using WISH and HRPD to examine the structure of the Ba1-xNaxTi2Sb2O phase diagram as a function of temperature. The primary goals are the determination of the... -
Correlation of structural and magnetic properties in oxides containing 1-D ch...
Purely ferromagnetic (FM) oxides are uncommon but we recently reported FM behaviour in a mineral induced by quite small magnetic fields. This ability relates to the presence of... -

Dirac fermions with linear energy dispersion with momentum space have been of current interest for spintronic applications because a variety of quantum transport phenomena... -
Origin of giant ferroelectricity in perovskite-type Mn2O3
Perovskite-type compounds can be both very simple and tremendously complex. Remarkably, even binary perovskite-type compounds may exhibit high level of complexity that leads to... -
