Mn have been found to be an interesting ion to be used as dopant in Lithium Niobate (LiNbO3) crystals in order to enhance their photorefractive properties. These materials are...

Previous muon experiments have identified a muonium state in the commonly occuring, but complex, beta rhombohedral form of elemental boron. To complement recent theoretical work...

Geometrically frustrated antiferromagnets RBa(Co/Fe)4O7 (R=rare earth or Y) exhibit a weak ferromagnetic component in the high-temperature spin-liquid phase. Based on a symmetry...

Recently there have been reports that high-temperature sodium order and dynamics in NaxCoO2 (NCO) can strongly influence both the electronic & magnetic properties at low...

The effect of electric field on the diamagnetic and paramagetic muon spin rotation signals will be investigated for the organic molecular semiconductors NPB and TPBi . These...

In a magnetic Weyl semimetal (WSM) with broken time-reversal symmetry, large intrinsic anomalous Hall effect is expected if the Weyl nodes are close to Fermi energy, which...

The aims of this proposal are to study the ALC resonance in crystalline and disordered P3HT at temperatures below 4.2K, as for crystalline P3HT a cross-over between localised...

Advanced health informatics is a grand challenge for 21st century medicine. The aim is to develop devices to enhance personalised healthcare. Part of such devices is selecting...

When we know an intrinsic diffusion coefficient of Li-ion (D) in an ionic conductor, we could estimate a number of mobile Li ions, i.e. carrier density (n), from ionic...

We have prepared a new family of electron-doped oxypnictides \RFeF\ with the same average Rare Earth radius as that yielding the highest superconducting Tc to date, i.e. the...

We have recently discovered a new family of geometric frustrated magnets starting from the parent system, RbFe2F6, with crystallizes in the defect or β-pyrochlore structure...

One of the technological goals is to create materials that show high permittivity and low dielectric loss, which has been achieved by the co-doping of Nb and In into rutile...

In the context of geometrically frustrated magnets, a new family of compounds A2R3Sb3O14 (A=Mn, Mg, Zn, Co; R=rare-earth ions) has been recently discovered, in which the...

In the 5d layered perovskite material, Sr2IrO4, spin orbit coupling and strong electron correlations combine to give rise to a spin-orbit coupled Mott insulator, with a...

Our previous work on sulfuric acid tetrahydrate (SAT) identified a monoclinic high-pressure polymorph, which forms at 5.35 kbar when the tetragonal low-pressure phase is warmed...

The overall aims of our project is to advance the performance of NIBs in terms of energy and power density by creating a closed-loop approach for materials design,...

A grand challenge facing society today is the need to develop green energy technologies. For instance, as we increase our use of renewable energy sources to cut our consumption...

We measure electron-hole recombination rate in low-temperature pure silicon using the photo-MuSR technique. The previous works have measured the recombination rate down to -30...

In order to improve the performance of future energy devices, nano-structuring materials is one of the most promising routes. LiFePO4 is a commercial battery cathode material...
