Doping effects in a S = 1/2 spin ladder system near quantum criticality
Spin ladders are excellent model systems for studying quantum phase transitions, as they exhibit a quantum critical point between non-magnetic spin singlet dimers to Néel... -
Understanding the superconductivity in YbSb2
The number of Type I binary of ternary alloys is small. Recently, YbSb2 is reported to be a type I superconductor. However, it has an unusual phase diagram, which might show a... -
Muon spin relaxation study of non-Fermi-liquid behaviour at the border magnet...
The understanding of mechanisms responsible for the formation of Non-Fermi Liquid state (NFL) and its relation to unconventional superconductivity is among the largest... -
A muSR Investigation of the Magnetic Ground State and Spin Dynamics in the Tr...
In a typical magnetic material the interactions between neighbouring magnetic moments will tend to lead to their ordered alignment throughout the entire structure as it is... -

We want to address the problem of a possible coexistence of superconductivity and magnetism in the FeSr2YCu2Oy cuprate by means of a combined ZF/TF-muSR study. This compound... -
muSR investigation of spin-orbit coupling driven magnetism of Ba3Zn1-xNixIr2O...
Strong spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in 5d transition metal oxides very often leads to unexpectedelectronic and magnetic ground state. While a nonmagnetic J=0 ground state can be... -
Neutron scattering and muSR studies of magnetic phenomena in YFe2Al10: case s...
In strongly correlated electron systems, the proximity to magnetic ordering has been of special interest. Magnetism in this class of systems is often suppressed by the Kondo... -
The nature of excitations in a molecular Haldane system
It is well known that an S = 1 antiferromagnetic spin chain is predicted to have a quantum disordered ground state and a gap in its excitation spectrum. This so-called Haldane... -

The 1T polytype of the transition-metal dichalchogenide TaS2 is a system with a very rich phase diagram. Upon cooling down, the crystal goes through a series of charge density... -
Completing the phase diagram of a 2D molecular antiferromagnet
Low-dimensional quantum magnetism continues to be of great theoretical and experimental interest as reduced dimensionality supports strong quantum fluctuations which can result... -

This proposal plans to investigate the superconducting ground state of the Heusler superconductors with a superconducting transition of ~2K. Heusler compounds have attracted a... -
Spin-liquid ground state on the perfect kagome lattice in YCu3(OH)6Cl3
Although spin-liquid ground state (GS) of a quantum kagome antiferromagnet has been well accepted, its exact nature remains elusive. Partially, this is due to theory being... -

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... -
Is there magnetic order in intrinsically frustrated rare earth bilayer alumin...
Compounds with formula R2SrAl2O7 (R=rare earth) look superficially similar to the well-known bilayer manganites, but here the perovskite bilayers contain Al and are nonmagnetic.... -
Geometrical frustration induced magnetism in single crystal of CeIrSn: A Muon...
The quasi-kagome Kondo lattice CeRhSn exhibits quantum criticality induced by geometrical frustration. Divergent Grüneisen ratios provide evidence for a zero-field QCP. The... -
Magnetic properties of yttrium diluted Ho2-xYxTi2O7 spin ice.
Pure Ho2Ti2O7 and Dy2Ti2O7 exhibit spin ice behaviour. The recent discovery of monopoles and "magnetricity" in Dy2Ti2O7 spin ice has only added to the interest in these... -
Frustration-stabilized skyrmions in centrosymmetric compounds
Skyrmions are chiral magnetic spin textures that exist in a variety of different magnetic materials. Skyrmions are usually stabilized in noncentrosymmetric chiral materials by... -
