Magnetic equiatomic alloys (MEAs) of the general formula MM'X (M, M' = transition metals, X = Si, Ge, Sn) undergo magnetostructural transition of martensitic type on cooling...

The enhancement of magnetic characteristics of Lu1-xA������xFeO3 (A������ = Sr, Zr, La, Nd) will be investigated in this work. Although substitution effects, in this case, are...

Our proposal is to use neutron total scattering on GEM to study framework flexibility and the phenomenology of the displacive phase transition in the cyanide-containing...

Coupling ferromagnatism and ferroelectriocity in a single phase material at or near room temperature has significant potential for the development of hybrid memory combining the...

In this proposal we request time on WISH to study the crystal structure and long range magnetic order on cooling, and the short range magnetic order above TN in an unusual iron...

Bismuth Ferrite (BiFeO3) is the archetypal multiferroic material and as such has been copiously studied using a wide variety of techniques. Despite this, new structural and...

Research to develop single phase materials that are polar and ferromagnetic at room temperature is driven by the hope of switching ferroelectric order with an applied electric...

The aim of the present proposal is to use total scattering to investigate changes in the local structure of Ba3BiRu2O9. This compound undergoes an unusual magnetovolume...

New layered perovskite compounds LaBaFeMnO5 and LaBaFeMnO6 were recently synthesized. They may be useful for future oxygen storage applications. Fe-Mössbauer spectroscopy has...

We propose to perform neutron diffraction experiments on a powder sample of a multiferroic hexaferrite PbFe12O19. A recent paper has reported room temperature multiferroic...

We have recently prepared a new strontium ruthenate, SrRu2O6, using hydrothermal chemistry. The material shows magnetic order, probably ferromagnetic, than persists above, and...

The new compound Bi2CoTiO6 is synthesized using high pressure - high temperature techniques. Its properties were characterized by X-ray diffraction, magnetic measurements, and...

In recent years, there has been a large research interest in noncentrosymmetric systems in part due to the exotic physics these systems display. Examples of chiral magnets...

The magnetoelectric Y-type hexaferrites demonstrate coupling between magnetism and electric polarisation in relatively small applied magnetic fields, and are hence candidate...

This experiment will probe the evolution of magnetic ordering in Sr2CrO3CrAs, a compound containing Cr2+ moments in arsenide layers and Cr3+ moments in oxide layers. We will use...

Multiferroic materials which exhibit both magnetic and electric ordering offer the potential application in data storage, spintronics, and microelectronics. To date the most...

Perovskite oxides exhibit a large array of interesting electronic properties. Owing to their difficult synthesis (requiring extremely high pressures) the MOsO3 Osmates offer a...

Because of the potential applications of multiferroicity, the discovery of a new multiferroic (MF) material is invariably met with great enthusiasm in the condensed matter...
