Giant magnetoresistance (GMR) is observed up to -49% in RuSr2R1.8-xY0.2CexCu2O10-d ruthenocuprates. The magnetotransport is very sensitive to lattice effects. As , the mean A...

Fulleride superconductivity is experiencing a renaissance of interest following our recent discovery of superconductivity proximate to an antiferromagnetic Mott insulating state...

Recent research in to Carbon Nanotubes filled with magnetic materials has produced some interesting results that have the potential to bring about new computing technology. In...

While investigating the ordering and magnetic dynamics in La2-xSrxCoO4 we found some intriguing behaviour for samples with small x, which would imply that the phase diagram is...

This proposal aims to characterise the spin dynamics of three Pr-based pyrochlores that may be realisations of quantum spin ice materials. The lower moment and larger wave...

Properties of graphene that make it an important material are its exceptionally high conductivity, massless fermions and a high velocity of electrons near the Dirac points....

Pd-Ag alloys find technological applications in H uptake and purification. Among various peculiar properties, their electric resistivity variation as a function of the H loading...

We can trace the history of electrochemical cells just over two hundred years back to Luigi Galvani and Alessandro Volta¿s inventions, and perhaps more than a millennium further...

Multiferroic systems have been a long-lasting and productive research field of condensed matter physics in both fundamental and applied perspectives. Useful multiferroic systems...

Single-Molecular Magnets (SMMs) provide access to the mesoscopic world. They possess slow magnetization relaxation due to an energy barrier induced by axial magnetic anisotropy,...

Interactions between CO2 and clay have attracted interest in the scientific community recently. This is partly motivated by the presence of large amounts of clays in caprock...

Amongst layered materials, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are studied extensively due to their complex phase diagrams exhibiting competing phases. Intercalation...

This study involves attempting to understand the Li atom diffusion within Li-intercalated hexagonal boron nitride. Muons present a significant advantage as they are sensitive to...

The kappa structural phase of BEDT-TTF salts incorporating various anions X provides an extremely interesting series of layered-structure strongly-correlated materials, whose...

Cs2Cu3SnF12 and Rb2Cu3SnF12 have a distorted kagome structure and the latter exhibits a pinwheel valence bond solid (VBS) state that has been demonstrated by inelastic neutron...

The response of the magnetic ordering of layered cobalt oxide chalcogenides to changes in electron count will be investigated in detail following a preliminary experiment at...

Batteries are ubiquitous in everday applications but making them cheaper, safer, and able to store more energy could widen their use still further. Many rechargeable batteries...

The development of high energy density electrode materials is increasingly important for EV applications. Chief amongst these are the layered oxide materials LiNixMnyCozO2,...

Polar or non-centrosymmetric ferri(-o)magnets offer a plethora of potential technological devices; the inherent magnetoelectric effect can underpin both pyroelectric or...

It has been suggested that within green dipotase there the magnetism is dominated by quantum flucuations but evidence for this is not definitive. This means that in this...
