This proposal forms part of an exploratory study of new mixed anion coordination compounds. We have prepared a family of oxalate-fluorides, which are anticipated to have... -
Investigation of the structural and magnetic properties of new Co based fluor...
We have recently managed to prepare powder samples and small single crystals of BaCoF4, BaNiF4, Ba2Co3F10, and the new tetragonal compound Ba2CoF6. These materials are... -
Phase Diagram of Ba1-xKxFe2As2
In the new class of iron pnictide superconductors, there is evidence of phase coexistence close to the phase boundary between the SDW and superconducting order produced by hole... -
Magnetic excitation in Sr2IrO4 : Establishing links to Cuprate superconductors
The strontium iridate Sr2IrO4 has recently received a special attention because of its closeresemblance to undoped high-Tc cuprate in terms of structural, electronic, and... -
Investigation of nonmagnetic degenerated ground state in a cubic 4f2 system P...
Praseodymium-based cubic compounds with a 4f2 configuration have attracted much attention. In case the crystalline electric field ground state is a nonmagnetic doublet, the... -
Investigating the magnetic structure of the solid solution PrCr(1-x)MnxO3
Rare-earth (A= La, Ce, Nd, Pr) orthochromites (A CrO3) and orthomanganites (A MnO3) are of interest due to the number of unusual physical properties they possess, displaying... -
Comparison of Dynamical Behaviour in MAPbX3 and FAPbX3: How Do They Differ ?
Organic-inorganic lead halide perovskite compounds are shown to be very promising candidates for low cost, solution-processable, highly efficient (>22%) solar cells with a... -
Stochastic Cation Dynamics in Photovoltaic Hybrid Perovskites under Pressure
Methylammonium lead iodide (MAPI) is one the most promising materials for photovoltaics. Notwithstanding the above, access to its phase diagram and the underlying structural...
