The overall aims of our project is to advance the performance of NIBs in terms of energy and power density by creating a closed-loop approach for materials design,... -
Motion of Diamagnetic Muonium Centres in II-IV-V2 Chalcopyrites
We propose to obtain the detailed temperature dependent diffusion characteristics for diamagnetic muonium defect centres, assumed to be a 'bare' muon, in selected members of the... -
Cyclic Processes in Mid-Range SiGe Alloys
We propose longitudinal muon spin depolarization measurements to extract the energy for the T-site Mu acceptor level in mid-range SiGe alloys where a direct determination of the... -
An Investigation of Magnetic Transitions in NdMn1-xCoxAsO0.95F0.05 (x = 0.03,...
We have recently reported colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) in NdMnAsO0.95F0.05. The CMR in NdMnAsO1-xFx arises due to competition between a strongly correlated antiferromagnetic... -
Probing phase transitions in vanadium oxide polymorphs using muons
Vanadium oxides have attracted considerable attention, not only due to their potential technological applications, but also because of the rich variety of structures and... -
