Spin, charge and orbital ordering in the new LiMn7O12 perovskite
ABO3 perovskite oxides with Mn on A and B sites are of fundamental interest due tophenomena that emerge from the coupling of charge, orbital and spin orders. Wehave synthesized... -
Structure and magnetic order in chemically modified schafarzikites
Schafarzikite minerals are structurally interesting in having 1-D chains of edge-linked transition metal octahedra. This experiment aims to determine the cause of the... -
Subtle magnetic phase transitions in multiferroic BiFeO3
This experiment seeks to probe the magnetic structure of multiferroic BiFeO3 and its evolution on lowering temperature, with the specific aim of identifying magneto-structural... -
Magnetic Ordering in a Kagome-like Cobalt Sulphate
We have recently prepared a new cobalt sulphate, Co3(SO4)3(OH)2[enH2], under solvothermal conditions. The structure of this material consists of edge-sharing CoO6 octahedra that... -
Dynamical Transitions in the Ogg Glasses
We request 4 days on IRIS to study the temperature dependance of the structural dynamics in amorphous sodium-ammonia (Na-NH3). This will be the first investigation of the... -
Magnetic structure of the 1D spin chain system: Sr3NiRhO6
The spin-chain systems with general formula A¿3ABO6, crystallizing in the K4CdCl6 (space group R -3 c) type structure has started attracting a lot attention in recent years due... -
Vibrational spectra of acetylene in a novel iron metal-organic framework for ...
The energy costs associated with large-scale industrial separation of light hydrocarbons by cryogenic distillation could potentially be lowered through development of selective...
