This proposal requests time to investigate the influence of an applied magnetic field on the oxyselenide Pr2O2Fe2OSe2. A metamagnetic transition involving ordering of Pr3+...

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...

This experiment will probe the evolution of magnetic ordering in Sr2Cr3As2O3, a compound containing Cr3+ moments in Cr2O square layers and Cr2+ moments in CrO2 layers. We will...

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...

The late first row transition metal monoxides are the canonical antiferromagnets. Their magnetic structures were first determined many decades ago but contemporary studies have...

We will carry out a definitive local structure investigation of the ferroelectric transition in [ND4][Zn(DCOO)3]. This compound is seen as the canonical example of a...

Recently synthesized new perovskite TlMnO3 is distinct in respect of crystal structure (space group) and orbital ordering from those of the previously known trivalent perovskite...

Tetrahedrites are minerals which consist largely of earth-abundant and environmentally-friendly elements (copper and sulfur). This family of materials is attracting much...

A-site ordered quadruple perovskites, AA’3B4O12, show many interesting physical and chemical properties, for example, inter-site charge transfer and disproportionation, giant...

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

Our aim is to study with high resolution neutron powder diffraction the two orthorhombic phases of Mn2TeO6 at RT, so as to understand the origin of the observed structural...

Materials with the perovskite crystal structure are ubiquitous in condensed matter physics. Despite being known for several years, the quadruple perovskites, which afford...

Within the framework of multifunctional materials showing the presence of both magnetic and electrical properties, the lead¿based double perovskites Pb2BB¿O6 are recognized as...

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...

Perovskite oxides exhibit a large array of interesting electronic properties. Owing to their difficult synthesis (requiring extremely high pressures) the MOsO3 Osmates offer a...

Multiferroic materials which exhibit both magnetic and electric ordering offer the potential application in data storage, spintronics, and microelectronics. To date the most...

The magnetoelectric Y-type hexaferrites demonstrate coupling between magnetism and electric polarisation in relatively small applied magnetic fields, and are hence candidate...

The new compound Bi2CoTiO6 is synthesized using high pressure - high temperature techniques. Its properties were characterized by X-ray diffraction, magnetic measurements, and...

We have recently prepared a new strontium ruthenate, SrRu2O6, using hydrothermal chemistry. The material shows magnetic order, probably ferromagnetic, than persists above, and...

We propose to perform neutron diffraction experiments on a powder sample of a multiferroic hexaferrite PbFe12O19. A recent paper has reported room temperature multiferroic...
