Alpha-CaCr2O4: magnetic study of a new case of triangulaire Cr-lattice
We propose to study a layered oxide in which chromium cations describe a triangular array. Itseems us that no magnetic data are reported up to now for this alpha-CaCr2O4... -
A MuSR study of the non-centrosymmetric superconductor LaPtSi3
Non-centrosymmetric superconductors (NCS) are believed to be good candidates for unconventional superconductivity. In particular, there is the possibility of Cooper pairs with... -
Spin wave investigations of the electron (Si) doped CeRu2Al10
CeRu2Al10 belongs to the CeT2Al10 family (T: Ru, Os, Fe), which exhibits Kondo-insulator behavior and high magnetic ordering temperature (TN=27K), with an unusual competition of... -
The Interaction of Puroindoline-b with Model Phospholipid Bilayers
Puroindolines are basic cystiene rich proteins which possess unique Trp rich domains which are fully conserved in the predominant isoform Pin-a and partially in Pin-b. This... -
Thermal expansion and phase transition in magnesium sulfate trihydrate
A recent single-crystal study determined the crystal structure of MgSO4.3D2O, and discovered that a first-order phase transition occurs when the crystal is cooled below 245 K.... -
Dextran based "smart" microgels for controlled drug delivery
Controlled drug delivery must be supported by specialized multi-task devices for addressing a predetermined therapeutic dose in controlled physiological conditions. Combining... -
Detailed investigation of the magnetic interaction as a function of temperature
In the series R2PdSi3,the Nd compound is considered to be an anomalous as it orders ferromagnetically (TC= 16 K) with a weak frequency-dependent ac susceptibility (χ)... -
Energy gap formation in the anisotropic Kondo insulator CeRu4Sn6 using muSR
We propose to perform a survey of the zero-field and applied field muSR in CeRu4Sn6 single crystal. We will do the field dependence of the muSR response at base temperature in... -
INS studies of copper sulphate pentahydrate - two birds with one stone.
Copper sulphate pentahydrate is one of the iconic substances of chemistry. The characteristic dark blue colour is the result of the water present: four molecules are coordinated... -
A uSR study of the superconducting ground state in the ternary intermetallics...
The ternary intermetallics, which crystallise in the ThCr2Si2 structure, have been extensively studied mainly because these materials offer a rich variety of exotic ground... -
