Study of vibron quasibound state in RAg1-xCuxAl3, 0<x<1 (R=Ce and La) through...
We propouse the study of crystal-field or vibron excitations along the series RAgxCu1-xAl3 (R=Ce and La, 0<x<1), where we expect to studing two main aspects. The first one... -
Further crystal field excitation data for pyrochlore zirconates.
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... -
Inelastic neutron scattering study of PrTSi3 (T = Ir, Rh and Ru)
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... -
Magnetic excitations in mesoporous hematite
We have recently prepared mesoporous forms of various metals oxides. In some cases the imposition of a mesostructure changes other properties of the material significantly. One... -
Melting point dynamics of Confined fluids
This proposal aims to investigate the dynamics of the melting transition in H2O and CO2 when confined in a vycor (SiO2) matrix. The field of fluids in confined geometries is... -
Inelastic neutron scattering study on CeMnAsO and LaMnAsO
RMnAsO (R = Ce and La) are isostructural compounds with Fe-based oxypnictides, but has a unique properties as Mott insulator unlike the nonsuperconducting parent compounds of... -
Crystal Field Splitting in Dysprosium Double Decker Single Molecule Magnets
We aim to elucidate the low-energy electronic structure of two distinct dysprosium bisphthalocyanine single-molecule magnets by direct observation of crystal field excitations... -
STUDY OF HYBRIDIZATION GAP IN THE FILLED SKUTTERUDITE COMPOUND: CeOs4As12
We have recently investigated a hybridization gap in Kondo systems using HET and several papers along with a review have been published. Our study shows a universal scaling... -
Phonon Density of States in Nanocrystalline YAG:Cr
Here we propose to measure the phonon density of states in nanocrystalline samples of YAG:Cr. Our parallel luminscence measurements have revealed dramatic changes in the phonon... -
EuCu2(Ge1-xSix)2 : from mixed valence to stable moment excitation spectrum
An inelastic neutron scattering experiment is proposed to study magnetic excitation spectra of representative EuCu2(Ge1-xSix)2 samples. These sytems provide the possibility to... -
Inelastic neutron scattering and µSR studies for the tetragonal layered compo...
Recently discovered tetragonal compounds CeRu2M2X (M=Al and Ga, X=B and C) provide new opportunity to investigate ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic ordering in the same... -
Spin-orbit coupling and spin dynamics in hexagonal iridate
Hexagonal iridate Na2IrO3 has recently been proposed as a candidate material to exhibit strong spin-orbit coupling effects which may stabilize a Mott insulating state with...
