Search for Antiferromagnetic order in ZrMn2
Today, about seventy years after Laves, there exists a fairly good knowledge about the basic structural principles of Laves phases but many questions still remain. AMn-type... -
Lattice dynamics study of filled-skutterudite compounds: RPt4Ge12 (R=Ba, La a...
The appearance of non-dispersive Einstein (¿rattling¿) modes, known as the phonon-glass paradigm in filled-skutterudite compounds, has been postulated as an origin of the high... -
Spin-orbit transitions of Co3+ in LaCoO3
In our first measurement of the high energy spectrum of LaCoO3 we observed a signal which is a promising candidate for an electronic transition from the low spin ground state of... -
Electronic state of Co3+ in LaCoO3
We will search for spin-orbit transitions of the Co3+ ions in LaCoO3. The ground state is a non-magnetic singlet, but there continues to be a debate about the nature of the...
