We propose to use OSIRIS to determine the magnetic structures of a series of cobalt oxysulfides containing Co in square planar coordination. Several compositions...

In this proposal, we would like to propose to perform neutron diffraction experiments on the powder samples of the frustrated antiferromagnets AFeO2 (A=Cu and Ag) using WISH. In...

The subjects of this proposal, Ho2+xTi2-xO7-x/2, are brand new materials1 related to Ho2Ti2O7, a spin ice2,3. They have the remarkable property of remaining disordered at very...

The heat capacity and neutron powder diffraction measurements of the double perovskites La2NaB′O6 (B = Ru5+, Os5+) with S=3/2 on the B¿ reveal an incommensurate magnetic...

We request 4 days on HRPD with the IGAn apparatus to follow the structural changes of Me-ND4 11BD4 as a function of temperature. The high resolution of HRPD will allow us to...

Reflectin, so named because of its high refractive index, is a protein expressed exclusively in cephalopods and forms reflectors responsible for dynamic iridescence and...

The purpose of this project work is to establish a broader understanding of the magnetic proximity effect observed in a magnetic amorphous multilayer. This will be achieved by...

We propose to use GEM to study both the crystal structure of RbO1.75 between room temperature and 2 K and its low-temperature magnetic structure. Lab X-ray diffraction data show...

This proposal is part of our research efforts aimed at the understanding of the static and dynamic properties of cyclic polymers and their comparison to linear chains. Previous...

Low-dimensional quantum spin systems with introduced disorder are a fascinating playground for investigations of the interplay between quantum effects, strong correlations and...

A recent neutron study of a powder sample attests a splayed ferromagnetic structure for Yb2Ti2O7. However in the same work the authors report gapless magnetic excitations even...

The exchange-striction mechanism, where parallel or antiparallel alignment of an ion's spin with its neighbour leads to displacements away from or towards the neighbour which...

We aim at studying proximity effects between a ferromagnetic thin film (either metallic or insulating) and a topological insulator (either undoped, or magnetically homogeneously...

Green dioptase is a naturally occurring mineral, that has a deep green colour, similar to that of an emerald, and with a chemical formula of CuSiO3.H2O. The Cu lies in quasi-1D...

Strong magnets with a high energy product are vital when optimizing the efficiency in the electricindustry. This can be achieved by making spring-exchange coupled magnets....

Complex transition metal fluorides are of increasing interest to the solid-state chemistry and physics communities due to the diverse range of physical properties they exhibit....

The rise of quantum materials observed in the past decades has been a source of great excitement for condensed matter scientists, with the flourishing of new concepts and...

Recentely we have measured (RB 1620263) pressure dependence of phonon modes in both the protonated (H2O) and deuterated ice (D2O) (Fig. 2) at ambient, 0.3 kbar, 1.0 kbar and 1.6...

All of the known mechanisms for magnetically-driven ferroelectricity require a form of magnetic long range order (LRO). Recently however, a new mechanism has been proposed where...

Magnetic frustration is the phenomenon resulting from inability to satisfy all magnetic interactions present in a system. It has drawn lots of attention as it is the source of...
