We aim to determine the magnetic excitation spectrum in single-crystals of the parent LaFeAsO compound and thereby address some basic issues concerning the nature of the...

Electron transport plays an important role especially to repair the damaged in DNA. µSR provides a means to microscopically study such phenomena. A systematic study on the...

Over the past few years, extensive developments have been made in the use of neutron diffraction for structural studies of liquids and amorphous materials at high pressure....

The unprecedented simultaneous accessibility of the low and high Q region available on NIMROD allows to tackle the issue of ageing of colloidal systems from the point of view of...

Most of the one dimensional spin chain compounds are antiferromagnetic with a rich magnetic phase diagram due to the magnetic frustration. We have synthesized Ba3CrS5 and...

Microwave techniques are of interest to the materials chemistry community as they allow access to new metastable materials, and offer synthetic routes that are considerably...

This proposal is concerned with determining variations in the high pressure structure of LaCoO3 and observing changes within this as the material undergoes some well...

Our objective is to determine structural models for some complex, mixed-metal oxide phases that are as complete as possible using analysis of PDFs produced from total neutron...

Spin dynamics of non-collinear magnetic structures can exhibit the rare phenomena which go beyond the linear spin wave theory. Our previous studies on non-collinear...

The proposed experiment aims to establish a detector system for a measurement of parity-violating effect in muonic atoms. A measurement of parity violation in atoms is a...

FCC Cs3C60 can be driven to a bulk superconducting state without symmetry change by the application of pressure. Its Tc passes through a maximum of 35 K at 6 kbar. We have been...

Materials that show fast oxide ion conduction have potential applications as electrolytes in devices such as solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), gas sensors and gas separation...

BeO is a promising material in order to improve HfO2-based MOSFET devices, and a candidate substitute of HfO2 as high-k gate material. The electrical properties of BeO can be...

Graphene is the single layer of honeycomb-shaped carbon network, for which 2010 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded thanks to its novel electronic properties. One of such...

The reported structural phase transition in YMnO3 from P63cm to P63/mmc space group occurs at 1258 ±14 K. For low temperature phase (space group P63cm) the phonon modes are...

We propose to microscopically study the role of defects on spin transport in one of the best approximations to the ideal antiferromagnetic Heisenberg s = ½ chain. By measuring...

Potassium tetracyanoquinodimenthane (KTCNQ) undergoes a spin-Peierls (SP) transition at 396K where a transformation from uniform to dimerised TCNQ- molecules in 1D columns...

We propose to use muons to probe the diffusion processes which occur within a battery anode during cycling in an all solid-state battery. Such solid-state battery configurations...

Heisenberg spin 1/2 systems show exotic nature of ground state, which gives rise to a number of interesting quantum phenomena, like being a state of quantum mechanically...

1T-TaS2 is a layered material with many intriguing properties that are after four decades still sparking controversial discussions. Due to a charge gap, it has been long...
