Influence of the cation disorder on the magnetic properties of underdoped cup...
We want to isolate the effects of doping, charge localization and local distortion on the transition from insulating antiferromagnet to superconducting metal in YBCO. We choose... -
Probing the glass transition in polymers using LF muSR
Nearly all polymers form glasses and the glass transition at temperature Tg dominates many physical properties of polymers that are relevant for their applications. The most... -
Interplay between magnetism and superconductivity in the FeYSr2Cu2Oy iron sub...
We want to address the problem of a possible coexistence of superconductivity and magnetism in the FeSr2YCu2Oy cuprate by means of a combined ZF/TF-muSR study. This compound... -

Motion of Diamagnetic Muonium Centres in II-IV-V2 Chalcopyrites
We propose to obtain the detailed temperature dependent diffusion characteristics for diamagnetic muonium defect centres, assumed to be a 'bare' muon, in selected members of the... -
An Investigation of Magnetic Transitions in NdMn1-xCoxAsO0.95F0.05 (x = 0.03,...
We have recently reported colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) in NdMnAsO0.95F0.05. The CMR in NdMnAsO1-xFx arises due to competition between a strongly correlated antiferromagnetic... -
MuSR investigations of TNO and LLZO diffusion mechanics above room temperature
Li-ion technologies are at the forefront of energy storage applications, including automotive and stationary storage, to meet global demand. TiNb2O7 (TNO) has recently garnered... -
Molecular Dynamics in Polystyrene
