This proposal is part of our project to investigate the unusual physics of 5d transition metal oxides (5dTMO).The compound of interest, Pr2Ir2O7, is an important member of the...

We observed linear magnetoelectric effect for the fist time in one of the well known green phases Sm2BaCuO5 which was seen as a secondary phase in the early synthesis of...

We are interested in a family of double perovskites which have remarkable properties. One member of this family, Pb2CaOsO6, transitions from behaving like a metal to being...

Transition metal oxides make up a remarkable group of materials, exhibiting a wide variety of unusual electronic and magnetic properties. They have generated much interest, in...

The mineral gaudefroyite contains parallel chains of linked MnO6 octahedra. The Mn magnetic moments order with parallel spins within a given chain at low temperature, but the...

Ba4Ru3O10 is a rather fascinating compound with quasi two dimensional crystal structure. Although the compound shows strong feature in the magnetization data at 105 K indicating...

We have identified new multi-anion solids with transition metals in unusual coordination environments and with apparently complex magnetic ordering. This experiment proposed for...

Magnetic equiatomic alloys (MEAs) of the general formula MM'X (M, M' = transition metals, X = Si, Ge, Sn) undergo martensitic transition on cooling from high temperature....

Our aim is to study with high resolution neutron powder diffraction the two orthorhombic phases of Mn2TeO6 at RT, so as to understand the origin of the observed structural...

Materials with the perovskite crystal structure are ubiquitous in condensed matter physics. Despite being known for several years, the quadruple perovskites, which afford...

Within the framework of multifunctional materials showing the presence of both magnetic and electrical properties, the lead¿based double perovskites Pb2BB¿O6 are recognized as...

Our objective is to determine the magnetic ground state of two isostructural magnetic materials. Both contain nickel(II) ions in octahedral environments, NiX2N4 (where X = Br or...

The spin-reorientation phase transition (SRPT) is an interesting phenomenon observed in rare-earth chromates. The test run scattering experiments done using high-resolution,...

One of the major themes in solid-state physics is the realisation of exotic types of relativistic electrons which travel at speeds much slower than the speed of light. These...

Multiferroics - where ferroelectric and magnetic orders co-exist - continue to be of technological and scientific importance, and of particular interest are the improper...

Research into the quadruple perovskite manganites has expanded, owing to recent discoveries of technologically relevant properties and entirely novel electronic states. Through...

Our objective is to determine the magnetic ground state of two isostructural magnetic materials. Both contain nickel(II) ions in octahedral environments, NiX2N4 (where X = Br or...

Chiral magnets with topologically protected states, such as magnetic Skyrmions in Cu2OSeO3, have been the center of attention of the scientific community in recent times due to...

Multiferroic materials which exhibit both magnetic and electric ordering offer the potential application in data storage, spintronics, and microelectronics. To date the most...

We observed reentrant superconductivity (SC) in Ir doped EuFe2As2 near 22 K in both resistivity and susceptibility. For the optimally doped sample, we witnessed two distinct...
