The vast majority of known ferroelectrics are inorganic compounds such as barium titanate and potassium dihydrogen phosphate. Contrary to naïve expectation, ferroelectricity in...

KMnF3 perovskite undergoes 3 structural, and two magnetic phase transitions on cooling from 300 K to 2 K. Above 185 K the compound is in the aristotype structure, on cooling...

We would like to investigate polycrystalline CaFe2O4 which undergoes two magnetic transitions to a B phase below 190 K and to a A phase below 160 K. Both phases coexist in a...

The family of guanadinium metal formates (M=Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu) are isostructural with the perovskites and are therefore of interest for potential applications: in particular,...

BiFeO3 is a room temperature multiferroic, displaying both ferroelectric and antiferromagnetic (AFE) ordering. x-BiFeO3 - (1-x)-PbTiO3 is also multiferroic at room temperature...

Recently a number of studies have been reported in FM/SC multilayers on proximity effect. Taking a step forward we propose to study coupling of SC and FM layers through an...

Sr3Ru2O7 is a layered Ruddlesden-Popper perovskite which displays intriguing behaviour at low temperatures and high magnetic field. It can be tuned close to a quantum critical...

YbAl3C3 undergoes a structural phase transition at 80 K and a spin-dimer formation below 10K. To gain more information on the nature of the spin-dimer state and the phase...

KMnF3 perovskite undergoes 3 structural, and two magnetic phase transitions on cooling from 300 K to 2 K. Above 185 K the compound is in the aristotype structure, on cooling...

20 years ago, Anderson proposed that the thermoelastic properties of the dominant (mantle) phase within the Earth, MgSiO3 perovskite, could be described as a simple Debye solid....

High resolution powder diffraction data will be used to obtain lattice parameter and atomic coordinate variations as a function of temperature for Pr0.6Ca0.4MnO3, which has a...

In 2010 several groups showed that iron selenide, already a superconductor at 8 K, could be charged with alkali cations leading to higher critical temperatures. These compounds...

In a previous experiment we measured the spin wave spectrum of the half-doped bilayer manganite Pr(Ca,Sr)2Mn2O7 in its spin, charge and orbital ordered phase. The data, which...

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...

Lu and Ho counterparts of RE3Fe5O12 will be an appropriate platform to reveal the complexmagnetic ground state of rare earth iron garnets with common formula RE3Fe5O12. Lu3+...

We recently used high-resolution neutron diffraction on HRPD to observe the largest magneto-elastic coupling ever seen in a metallic magnet. The material studied was CoMnSi, a...

The piloting experiments RB820478, RB610497 and RB 10067 on VESUVIO on (NH4)2PdCl6 and (NH4)2TeCl6 have shown that: (i) at 300 K, the dynamics of NH4+ and PdCl6- and TeCl6- is...

Methylammonium lead iodide is currently one of the most promising materials for solar energy applications, with light-conversion efficiencies exceeding 20%. Although insightful,...

KMnF3 perovskite undergoes 3 structural, and two magnetic phase transitions on cooling from 300 K to 2 K. Above 185 K the compound is in the aristotype structure, on cooling...

SrAl2O4 is a stuffed tridymite that has attracted a good deal of interest, since doping with Eu2+ leads to a material with elastic-luminescent response. The structure and phase...
