Fishing for a new magnetic phase in the Pr1-xCaxMnO3 manganites phase diagram
Based on old data and the recent litterature, we suspect the existence of a poorly documented low temperature magnetic phase transition (T<30K) in colossal magnetoresitve... -
Tuning B-B exchange in the R2MnMn(Mn4-xTix)O12 quadruple perovskite manganites
For the RMn3O6 manganites, we have shown that tuning A-B exchange, by choice of A-site cation or by doping magnetic impurities, gives rise to dramatically different magnetic... -
Magnetically Driven Ferroelectric Order in the 2D Antiferromagnet b-NaMnO2.
Incommensurate magnetic phases generated by frustrated magnetic exchange interactions can stabilise novel induced magnetoelectrics. We have recently found that the... -
Are La3Ni2NbO9 and La3Ni2TaO9 relaxor ferromagnets?
A relaxor ferroelectric exhibits a net polarisation only in an applied electric field due to the co-alignment of polar nanoregions. In La3Ni2SbO9 we found the magnetic... -
