The NH4M(formate)3 (M = Mn, Fe, Co and Ni) series are the most promising members of a new family of multiferroics in which ferroelectric ordering is driven by hydrogen-bonding...

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...

Ni-Mn based Heusler alloys with composition related to the stoichiometry Ni2MnX, with X belonging to the IIIA-VA chemical species, are widely considered as a class of...

Negative thermal expansion (NTE) materials, the volume of a material abnormally contract with the increase of temperature, is closed related to the magnetovolume effect (MVE) in...

Exchange bias (EB) effect, characterized by a shift of the hysteresis loop along the magnetic field axis, has attracted considerable attention because of its significance in...

Magnetic equiatomic alloys (MEAs) of the general formula MM'X (M, M' = transition metals, X = Si, Ge, Sn) undergo magnetostructural transition of martensitic type on cooling...

The aim of the present proposal is to experimentally investigate the magnetic order below Tc in the cubic quasicrystal approximant Au5.027Si1.307Tb, which orders ferro- or...
