Magnetic correlations in yttrium diluted Ho2-xYxTi2O7 spin ice.
Pure Ho2Ti2O7 exhibits spin ice beahviour. Studies of doped spin ice, replacing Ho with non-magnetic Y, suggest that the spin ice state is present even when the amount of doping... -
Completing the phase diagram of a 2D molecular antiferromagnet
Low-dimensional quantum magnetism continues to be of great theoretical and experimental interest as reduced dimensionality supports strong quantum fluctuations which can result... -
Superconductivity and magnetism in Cu2+-based coordination polymer [Cu3C6S6]n
Cu-BHT exhibits perfect kagome lattice of Cu2+ and previous combined magnetization and specific heat results suggested the presence of strong spin fluctuations. If there are... -
Low Temperature Properties of a Uniform S=1/2 Triangular Lattice System
It is proposed to use TF muSR to study the low temperature, low field part of the phase diagram of Ba3CuSb2O9, a system with a uniform triangular lattice of S=1/2 Cu ions that... -
Spin-Luttinger Liquid phase in a model strong-rung quantum spin ladder
Spin ladders represent a class of low-dimensional quantum magnets that occupy a regime of subtle behaviour which lies between the stark extremes of the one-dimensional chain or... -
