YbPd crystallizes in the cubic CsCl-type structure and reported to have magnetically ordered ground state with the mixed valence of the Yb ion. Further, it under goes through...

The Shastry-Sutherland lattice (SSL) can be described as a 2D square lattice built up from a network of dimers disposed orthogonally and has been observed in SrCu2(BO2)3....

The proposal addresses the average structures of new lead-free ferroelectrics, low-temperature ionic conductors and mixed conductors which are candidate solid oxide fuel cell...

YbAl3C3 exhibits a spin gap formation due to spin dimer ground state below 10 K. In zero-field the ground state is paramagnetic and no sign of long range magnetic ordering down...

Recently it has been reported that YbAl3C3 undergoes an antiferromagnetic quadrupolar ordering transition at 80 K, Further study by Ochiai et al. revealed that the transition at...

Recently we have synthesized and investigated three new ternary intermetallic compounds PrTSi3 (T = Ir, Rh and Ru) which form in BaNiSn3-type tetragonal structure (space group...

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...

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...

Ru4+ ions in Li2RuO3 are on a bipartite lattice and have an orbital degeneracy. The four electrons of the magnetic Ru4+ ions in the threefold-orbitally degenerate t2g manifold...

The spontaneous formation of multilayer structures at interfaces from surfactant self-assembly has until recently been rarely observed. However, surface multilayer structures...

We propose to perform a neutron inelastic scattering study on the anisotropic triangular lattice system beta-NaMnO2. This work will be an extension of our previous study on...

Recent diffraction [GEM] and DINS [Vesuvio] studies of water in carbon nanohorns have suggested that there is substantial proton delocalisation along the H-bond between...

Iron is a canonical instance of an itinerant electron ferromagnet, and a classic correlated electron system. Our recent data from MAPS contradicts earlier triple-axis data that...

Polymorphism is a major problem in the pharmaceutical industry and also a conceptual bottleneck in the conversion of useful molecular properties into useful materials...

There has been much recent interest in the so-called ¿novel¿ or ¿type-II¿ multiferroics, in which electrical polarisation appears at the onset of a particular type of magnetic...

We have investigated the magnetic structure and crystal field excitations (CEF) of CeT2Al10 (T=Os and Ru). The observed magnetic moment along the c-axis does not agree with that...

Nd2Zr2O7 (NZO), synthesized and supplied to us by Tokura and Onose, is a new candidate spin ice while Pr2Zr2O7 (PZO) if anything even more promising is supplied to us by...

CeIr3Si2 exhibits highly anisotropic bulk properties with two magnetic transitions at TN1 ~ 3.9 K and TN2 ~ 3.1 K. The overall CEF splitting of the J=5/2 ground multiplet of...

We plan to investigate the interaction between amyloid proteins and model biomembranes deposited on solid surfaces. The model membranes will be single zwitterionic and mixed...

In view of the interesting magnetic properties observed in CeTSi3 (T=Pt and Pd) and superconductivity in LaPdSi3 (TSC= 2.6 K), as well as the theoretical interest in...
