Multiferroics of spin origin, for which magnetic long-range order and electric polarization occur simultaneously, have attracted considerable interest. The strong coupling...

Iron tungstate Fe2WO6 attracts increasing interest in two areas of applications due to its photoelectrochemical behaviour. Fe2WO6 can act either as a photocatalyst for...

In the earlier studies, so far, condensed matter physicists and materials scientists have mainly explored the interesting physical properties of Ir-based double perovskites...

We have discovered a novel type of quantum spin liquid in a hexagonal lattice of Ru5+ dimers in Ba3ZnRu2O9, where any traces of the Curie tail or glassy behavior have not been...

Mn2Au has garnered a lot of interest as a promising material for the new field of antiferromagnetic spintronics. The symmetry of the crystal and magnetic order, already...

This project lies on the study of multiferroic materials in which both electric dipole order and magnetic order coexist. These materials are of the potential for new technology...

Every new triangular lattice (TL) antiferromagnet attracts considerable attention since they usually display rich physics due to the inherent frustration and degenerate ground...

This proposal is part of a project in which we explore the unusual physics of 5d transition metal oxides. Using a special high pressure technique, we have synthesised first...

The development of new porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is receiving considerable attention owing to their potential for energy-efficient gas storage and separation. We...

Although the systems of choice for the study of electronic correlations have traditionally been 3d transition metal oxides, the interest has recently been extended to 4d and 5d...

FeSe is structurally the simplest iron-based superconductor but one of the most intriguing electronically, with extreme tunability in its electronic and superconducting...

The objective of this proposal is to solve the field-induced magnetic structure of a newly synthesized brownmillerite. Under normal conditions there are three different magnetic...

We propose to perform a neutron diffraction experiment under magnetic fields using a single crystal sample of multiferroic alpha-NaFeO2 on WISH beamline. Recently, we have...

The variant of the Hexagonal perovskite oxides are characterised by chains of trigonal prisms and octahedra, leading to a number of fascinating properties. Using resonant x-ray...

To determine the crystal fields of hexagonal RRh3 (R=Pr, Nd) compounds showing ferromagnetic transitions at TC=3 and 6 K, respectively, we plan to perform inelastic neutron...

The main target of the proposal is to determine the magnetic phase diagram of multi-ferroic compound TbMnO3 in extremely high magnetic fields around 30 T by using a pulsed...

Emerging technologies require increasingly unusual functional materials and so understanding the origins of complex magnetic and electronic behaviour, and how these can be...

High pressure is a powerful thermodynamic tool, like temperature, to vary the properties and structure of materials. X-ray and neutron diffraction can be used to measure certain...

Three new doubly ordered perovskites NaYMWO6 (M=Mn, Co & Ni) have been synthesized by high pressure and high temperature. Analysis of room temperature laboratory X-ray...

Purely ferromagnetic (FM) oxides are uncommon but we recently reported FM behaviour in a mineral induced by quite small magnetic fields. This ability relates to the presence of...
