The control of physical properties through cation ordering in perovskites often gives rise to unexpected and desirable functionality. Of particular interest in the preparation...

Based on old data and the recent litterature, we suspect the existence of a poorly documented low temperature magnetic phase transition (T<30K) in colossal magnetoresitve...

Recently, our combined diffraction and NMR experiments have shown that alpha-NaMnO2, an antiferromagnet with two-dimensional triangular stacked topology, is a striking example...

Non-coplanar magnetic orders in metallic helimagnets have been of great interest since the discovery of a vortex-like spin-swirling object called "skyrmion" and the resulting...

Ni rich layered oxides are promising cathode materials for Li-ion batteries since they fulfil the energy density requirements of the automobile industry but they tend to degrade...

We plan to investigate the low-temperature structure and magnetostructural coupling in PdCrO2, which is a quasi-2D material with strongly anisotropic physical properties. It is...

Manganese based oxides are of great interest for both spintronic and multiferroic applications.Pb2MnO4 crystallizes in the acentric but non-polar space group P-421c which allows...

Test of the NIMS low temperature pressure cell on WISH.

The spin Jahn-Teller effect stabilises 3D magnetic order in an otherwise frustrated system via magnetoelastic coupling, spontaneously at the magnetic phase transition. Examples...

This study is designed to identify relationships between structure and magnetic properties characteristic of coordination polymers (CPs). By determining the ground state 3D...

Understanding the magnetic structure of the perovskite manganites has been a significant field of research over the past 20 year due of their numerous technologically relevant...

A recent exciting development in magnetic materials was the discovery of a new iron oxide, Fe4O5, using high temperature and high pressure. A very recent structural study has...

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...

Unconventional superconductivity has recently been suggested in the new class of iron-based superconductors in which unusual gap symmetries have been observed together with...

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 interplay between orbital order and magnetism in insulating manganites has been extensively studied following the seminal neutron diffraction experiments of Wollan and...

Our aim is to investigate the evolution of super-lattice structure (i.e. charge/orbital ordered phase) as well as the associated magnetic structure in SrMn1-xWxO3 (x=0.1375...

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

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...

Metal-organic framework materials are a family of nanoporous solids that have potential applications in molecular storage, separation and catalysis. Some of these materials show...
