Magnetoelectric multiferroics have been recently the focus of a significant research effort. The experiment that we propose explores a new class of "magnetochiral" systems,...

We propose to use a pulsed magnet system tried and tested at several neutron and synchrotron facilities in conjunction with the new high flux diffractometer WISH to perform the...

We aim to study select samples of hole and electron doped (A,A')(Fe,B)2As2 (A=Ba, Sr, or Ca; A'=Na, K and B=Co, Ni, or Pt) iron pnictides. These materials exhibit robust...

Many novel electronic ground states form in close proximity to quantum critical points (QCPs), that is, the point where a continuous phase transition occurs at zero temperature....

In SrHo2O4, the Ho3+ ions are arranged in a network of triangles and hexagons, and coupled with antiferromagnetic exchange interactions, this gives rise to geometric...

Ammonia borane (AB) is one of the most promising hydrogen storage materials. We have extensively studied the low temperature behaviour of this material This proposal asks for 3...

In a previous WISH experiment, we have succeeded in determining the incommensurate cycloidal magnetic structure of AgFeO2, which induces a ferroelectric polarization[1]....

In this proposal, we would like to propose to perform neutron diffraction experiments on the powder samples of the frustrated antiferromagnets AFeO2 (A=Cu and Ag) using WISH. In...

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...

Short peptide sequences consisting of hydrophobic and hydrophilic amino acid units are capable of self-assembly to lead to interfacial adsorption and solution nano-aggregation....

We propose to study by powder neutron diffraction the ordered magnetic state of the pyrochlore compound Y2Ir2O7. There is currently an increasing interest in the condensed...

Perovskite-type compounds can be both very simple and tremendously complex. Remarkably, even binary perovskite-type compounds may exhibit high level of complexity that leads to...

Cubic A2B2O7 oxides with A standing for a rare-earth element and B for a transition or main block metal have been systematically studied for their frequently exotic...

Chlorite dismutases (Clds) are metalloproteins containing heme b (i.e. Fe(III) in a porphyrin system) as redox cofactor. Clds are able to degrade toxic chlorite to chloride and...

Geometrically frustrated magnets have attracted great interest because of their exotic orders at low temperatures. In case of classical Kagome Heisenberg antiferomagnet its...

Manganese oxides have attracted great interest in solid-state physics research owing to the diverse range of electronic ordering phenomena. Pb3Mn7O15 is a relatively...

Magnetic cooling promises efficiency savings at room temperature but requires rapid cycling of a magnetic refrigerant in a magnetic field. Refrigerants with first order...

-Fe3Sn2 is a rare example of a ferromagnetic metal. It features a giant Anomalous Hall Effect (AHE) at room temperature that makes it a candidate material for spintronics...

Back up experiment to fill gap in the schedule if beamtime is available

Bi0.7La0.3FeO3 has received extensive attention in the past years, since this compound exhibits simultaneously ferroelectricity and ferromagnetism at room temperature. Despite...
