This is an extention of the previous proposal (RB920385), which was awarded 7 days.The experiment has not been performed yet (scheduled in November), but we forsee... -
Impurity-induced frustration in La2CuO4
We plan to investigate by means of zero-field muSR the doping dependence of the sublatticemagnetization in La2Cu1-xZnxO4 and in La2Cu1-xMgxO4. In both systems Cu2+ S=1/2 spins... -
