Ir-based d-band derived superconductivity in RIr3 (R= Ce, La)
Very recently Sato et al., JPSJ 2018 have investigated superconductivity in the single crystals of CeIr3 (Tc = 3.4 K, which is highest among Ce compounds), which shows a weak... -
Probing the Effect of Applied Field on Magnetocaloric TbOHCO3
There is a growing need to reduce dependence on liquid He for cooling applications below 20 K. Magnetocalorics, which exhibit an entropically driven cooling effect in a cycled... -
Giant exchange bias in antiperovskite Mn3Zn1-XCoXN: a neutron diffraction study
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... -
Searching for time-reversal symmetry breaking pairing state in non-centrosymm...
LuPdBi, a ternary half-Heusler compound, is superconducting at 1.7 K and has an upper critical field of 2.2 T. Specific heat data suggests that superconductivity of LuPdBi is... -
Investigation of Bose-Einstein condensation of magnons through temperature-fi...
YbAl3C3 exhibits a spin gap formation due to spin dimer ground state below 10 K. In zero-field the ground state is paramagnetic and no sign of long range magnetic ordering down... -
Understanding the magnetic phase diagram in capped MnSi thin films
Skyrmions are a topologically non-trivial magnetisation pattern that form in crystal structures whose broken inversion symmetry gives rise to the Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya... -
Probing the meta-stable nature and time induced ferromagnetic phase growth in...
In recent years, the investigation of metamagnetic properties of first order magnetic systems has become revolutionary. The rare-earth based compound Nd5Ge3 exhibits a magnetic... -
Unveiling competing magnetic interactions in Nd5Ge3: Muon spin relaxation
The physics across the phase transitions in solids has been of topical interest in the condensed matter physics. For example, liquid and vapor coexist along the vapor pressure... -
Helimagnetic correlations in FeCl3
The recent discovery of skyrmions and skyrmion lattices in materials with no inversion symmetry and their corresponding potential applications of Skyrmions in magnetic... -
Spin orders in CaxMn2-xFeReO6 double perovskites
New manganese-based double perovskites Mn2-xCaxFeReO6 have been synthesised at high pressure. Mn2FeReO6 has spin-active cations at all sites; S = 5/2 Mn2+, S = 5/2 Fe3+ and S =... -
Coexistence of superconductivity and magnetism in the half-Heusler compound E...
This half-Heusler compound is also a semi-metal, with a low carrier density and non-trivial topological features. The crystal structure is also non-centrosymmetric, which is...
