Investigating the effect of magnetic impurities on P3HT ALC resonances.
Previous work on the polymer RR-P3HT has found that the ALC resonance collapses at 100K to ~80% of the 300K ALC magnitude, this is much larger than the decrease seen for small... -
The role of spin fluctuations, disorder and non-colinearity in the INVAR effect
The origin of the Invar effect, whereby certain ferromagnetic alloys exhibit near zero thermal expansion around room temperature is still not properly understood. Although the... -
