Magnetic Properties of Functionalized Graphene
Recently, we have shown that if the graphene lattice is doped with sulphur, ferromagnetism can emerge once the doping threshold level is overcome [10]. In particular, graphenes... -

This is an in depth study of magnetic fluctuations and local field dynamics leading into the low temperature magnetic phase of Vanadium Oxide compounds (VO2, VO2:W and VO2:Ti)... -
µSR investigation of NaxLi12-xC60
An economy based on hydrogen as an energy carrier is one of the most promising solutions against the greenhouse effect problem, due to the large amount of energy produced by the... -
Continuing to Study the Nature of the Magnetic Transition in 1:2 TCNQ Salts
We have conducted a decent amount of work on a 1:1 and 1:2 TCNQ salts where we seek to identify whether the magnetic transition shows a universality. So far measurements on a... -

Our report of a novel cationic dipalladium(I) hydride in (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2010, 49, 6315) shows a linear Pd-Pd-H core with H-ligand dynamics (solution NMR). Ab-initio MD... -
MuSR study on the hidden order in Irridates
Recently the 5d transition metal oxide Sr2IrO4 has attracted much attention due to its close analogy with high-Tc cuprates. A hidden broken symmetry phase, which is similar to... -
muSR study of a relaxor ferromagnet
As a consequence of cation disorder, the compound La3Ni2SbO9 behaves as a new type of magnetic material, a "relaxor ferromagnet", somewhat analogous to a relaxor ferroelectric,... -

We have recently performed muon measurements on a member of a new class of multiferroic materials. We have shown that there is hysteretic behaviour to the internal field... -
Completing the magnetic ordering-crystal structure phase diagram of supercond...
We would like to complete the phase diagram by measuring one more sample of Fe1+xTe for x = 14 %, which represents a point at one extreme of the phase diagram. The simple binary... -
Magnetic field induced phase transition in two dimensional triangular lattice...
We propose to conduct an inelastic scattering study on NaVS2 and NaVSe2 in zero magnetic field on the MARI spectrometer. These compounds form triangular lattices which are... -
Quantum tunnelling of muonium via radical states in molecular solids
The extreme quantum nature of muons and muonium in condensed matter is the result of having a mass that is nine times lighter than that of a hydrogen atom. While this quantum... -
