As part of a project to develop new electronic materials based on the coupling of electronic and structural properties in new perovskites we have been investigating the...

This proposal plans to investigate the superconducting ground state of the Heusler superconductors with a superconducting transition of ~2K. Heusler compounds have attracted a...

The quasi-kagome Kondo lattice CeRhSn exhibits quantum criticality induced by geometrical frustration. Divergent Grüneisen ratios provide evidence for a zero-field QCP. The...

A study of the ground state of the Ce5Rh4Sn10 is proposed. Compound belongs to the heavy fermion system with two magnetic phase transitions at 1.4 K and 4.3 K. While the...

In a recent letter to Nature, Boothroyd and coworkers have shown that the well known hour-glass spectrum, previously observed in some cuprate materials, occurs in a hole doped...

The organic-inorganic hybrid systems consist of organic and inorganic components forming a 2 D layered structure. The distance between adjacent magnetic layers is quite far,...

We propose to explore the spin dynamics in LiNiVO4, a system which we believe is a previously unobserved realization of a random distribution of 1D antiferromagnetic Heisenberg...

Recent investigations into spin ice suggest excitations that behave like magnetic monopoles, this has included a transverse field muon experiment. When zero field muon...

We are currently investigating Haldane spin-chain compounds [PRB 2017] of the type R2BaNiO5 (R = rare earth) using bulk measurements and have found the multifunctional...

Repolarisation and level crossing resonance will be studied for several different oxalate compounds where muon radical states are known to be formed. Such compounds form a...

The quantum spin liquid (QSL) state is one of the possible outcomes of quantum fluctuations advancing magnetic systems into a disordered phase. After more than 30 years of quest...

Nd2Ir2O7 stands out as a fascinating system among pyrochlore iridates because of its potential for realizing a new topological semimetal state which its emergence strongly...

The combination of magnetic frustration and low magnetic moment leads to non-classical magnetic behaviour such as spin liquid states. We have prepared polycrystalline samples of...

The recovery of the muon polarization in a longitudinal magnetic field has been used to obtain the muon hfcs of organic radicals. In pure benzene there is a single step in the...

RT2Al10 is a new series of rare-earth-based ternary aluminide compounds that show a variety of magnetic phenomena. This proposal is for a muSR study on three of its members to...

A new layered iridate material, Cu2IrO3, has been fabricated. This material is isostructural with the much-studied Na2IrO3 and has a nearly ideal honeycomb structure that should...

BeO is a promising material in order to improve HfO2-based MOSFET devices, and a candidate substitute of HfO2 as high-k gate material. The electrical properties of BeO can be...

This proposal plans to investigate the superconducting ground state of LaNiGa2 which is a centrosymmetric superconductor with a superconducting transition of ~2K. Heat capacity...

In the present project we will focus on critical behaviour of Cu3(pyrazine)[W(CN)8]2 revealing magnetic phase transition at Tc=43 K. The findings will be compared to those...

We propose to study PdxIrTe2, which evolves from a charge-orbital density wave state to a superconducting state with doping. It has a similar structural motif, doping-dependent...
