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... -
How complex is complex: an ALC study of a 10-mer helical peptide chain
There have been ALC studies on the interaction of muons with native proteins, but little systematic work that contributes understanding of how spectroscopic information alters... -
Magnetically frustrated coordination polymers as Quantum Spin Liquid candidates
Magnetic coordination polymers have emerged as potential candidates to behave as Quantum Spin Liquids (QSLs). The QSL is a state of matter proposed by Anderson in 1973, where,... -
