Search for Kitaev spin liquid in K2IrO3
Majorana fermion, proposed by Ettore Majorana in 1937, is a putative elementary spin-1/2 particle that is its own antiparticle. In condensed-matter systems, analogs of Majorana... -
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... -
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 glass behaviour in the disorder-free geometrically frustrated magnet Yb2...
Our susceptibility studies of the frustrated magnet Yb2Sn2O7 has revealed a spin glass transition of the Yb3+ magnetic lattice at T_g = 140 mK. To our knowledge, this... -
Probing the local magnetic structure and magnetic ground states in strongly s...
Strong spin-orbit coupling often leads to exotic properties in otherwise a well understood pool of 'paramagnetic' heavy ion oxides. For a 5d4 system a J=0 total angular momentum... -
Low Temperature Study of the Cluster Glass Phase in Ni(TCNQ)2
Recently there has been an M(TCNQ)2, where M=Mn, Co, Fe and Ni, series synthesised where all samples formed a stochiometric glassy ferromagnetic salt. We have focused on the... -
MuSR study to investigate a small moment magnetic ordering in Ce(Os1-xIrx)2Al...
Our muSR study on Ce(Os1-xFex)2Al10 with x=0.4, which reveals long range magnetic ordering below 24K from the heat capacity, shows unexpected behaviour. The muSR spectra only... -
Probing the superconducting ground state of the Heusler superconductors
This proposal plans to investigate the superconducting ground state of the Heusler superconductors with a superconducting transition of ~2K. Heusler compounds have attracted a... -
The nature of excitations in a molecular Haldane system
It is well known that an S = 1 antiferromagnetic spin chain is predicted to have a quantum disordered ground state and a gap in its excitation spectrum. This so-called Haldane... -
Dynamics in staggered molecular spin chains
The ability to manipulate quantum states of matter is a goal of condensed matter science. Recent progress in molecular magnetism has shown the potential for gaining control over...
