One-dimensional (1D) spin chain is important for understanding low-dimensional magnetism and useful for advancing quantum communications. In the present proposal we are...

This proposal describes a muSR experiment on Li-deficient Lix(Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3)O2 to determine a Li diffusion coefficient as a function of the Li content x, because muSR is a...

Superconductivity was recently discovered in alpha-phase FeSex with a Tc of 8 K. Selenium can be replaced with Tellurium (FeSe1-xTex) and this results in an increase in Tc to 15...

Topological insulators (TIs) are of inherent interest as they are conducting on the surface whilst insulating on the bulk. We would like to investigate magnetically doped...

Hydrogen storage materials with a low working temperature are strongly required for the application of the next generation on-board hydrogen storage system. Among several...

We propose to map out magnetic and lattice excitations in compounds Mn(5-x)Fe(x)Si3.Varying the Fe content, the system shows a tunable magneto-caloric effect, both in the...

Evidence of long-range order has been observed in the diffuse neutron scattering data for a single crystal of HoTbTi2O7.A spin ice like pattern and pinch points coexist with the...

We propose a continuation of longitudinal muon spin depolarization measurements on mid-range SiGe alloys where a direct observation of T-site ionization is not possible because...

CuTCNQ (TCNQ = 7,7,8,8-Tetracyanoquinodimethane) is material which exhibits electrical resistive switching at 300K and has two structural forms (I and II), each with very...

Spin ladders are excellent model systems for studying quantum phase transitions, as they exhibit a quantum critical point between non-magnetic spin singlet dimers to Néel...

An all solid state lithium ion battery (SSLIB) has an advantage in electrical capacity compared to the popular lithium ion battery (LIB) using a liquid electrolyte. However, a...

We intend the measure the neutron reflectivity of a purely magnetic interface generated at a ferromagnetic/antiferromagnet phase boundary within an FeRh epilayer, a material...

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 proposal is part of a long-range program aiming at determining the stable charge-state configurations, site and impurity energy levels (donor and/or acceptor) of hydrogen...

We have recently performed a ZF muon experiment on Ba3Dy2GaNb9O30 in EMU under the influence of electric fields and demonstrated that this material demonstrates multiferroic...

NaTiO2 has been predicted to have a variety of unusual magnetic states, depending sensitively on the details of the crystal structure and interaction strength between the...

Our susceptibility studies of the frustrated magnet Yb2Sn2O7 has revealed a spin glass transition of the Yb3+ magnetic lattice at T_g = 140 mK. To our knowledge, this...

Skyrmions are chiral spin textures that exist in a variety of magnetic materials. These states are topologically non-trivial, which gives them stability expected to be useful...

There is much debate about muon stopping sites within materials and in many cases knowing where the muon stops is crucial to understanding the physical properties of different...

We have recently prepared mesoporous forms of various metals oxides. In some cases the imposition of a mesostructure changes other properties of the material significantly. One...
