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...

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...

Recently a handful of non-centrosymmetric Ce-based HF compounds with general formula CeTX3 (T=transition mental and X=Si or Ge) have been reported to exhibit superconductivity...

The physics across the phase transitions in solids has been of topical interest in the condensed matter physics. For example, liquid and vapor coexist along the vapor pressure...

Whilst rechargeable batteries continue to take over the consumer electronics market, they are unsuitable to replace specific battery technologies, such as the thermal battery,...

We propose to characterize the two magnetic transitions in Nd0.75Gd0.25Rh3B2 and study the spin dynamics and field induced domain rotation via zero field (ZF) and longitudinal...

Our recent musr studies on CeT 2Al10 (T=Os and Ru) reveal a clear sign of long range magnetic ordering below 28 K in both the compounds. More interestingly the frequency...

Gaining control of the building blocks of magnetic materials will enable the design and growth of bespoke magnetic devices. However, the ability to tune the magnetic...

One of the technological goals is to create materials that show high permittivity and low dielectric loss, which has been achieved by the co-doping of Nb and In into rutile...

During the past decades, weakly coupled spin cluster systems have attracted much attention due to the possibility of observing concomitantly zero-dimensional quantum and...

Negative thermal expansion (NTE) materials, the volume of a material abnormally contract with the increase of temperature, is closed related to the magnetovolume effect (MVE) in...

NaxC60 and LixC60 are wide theoretically studied systems for hydrogen storage. We recently investigated the hydrogen absorption/desorption of Na10C60 and we found that up to 3.5...

The stratum corneum which is mainly composed of mixture of lipids, cholesterols and fatty provide a formidable barrier for drug penetration through skin. In this proposal, we...

This is an in depth study of magnetic fluctuations and local field dynamics leading into the low temperature magnetic phase of Vanadium Oxide compounds (VO2, VO2:W and VO2:Ti)...

Recently, there has been a significant amount of interest in quantum phase transitions and non-Fermi liquid (NFL) behavior exhibited by heavy-fermion compounds. Interestingly...

Using NMR spectroscopy, the possible existence of a new magnetic state has been suggested to exist in LaFeAs1-xPxO (for x near 0.5); however, other groups failed to detect any...

We are currently investigating Haldane spin-chain compounds [PRB 2017] of the type R2BaNiO5 (R = rare earth) using bulk measurements and have found the multifunctional...

All known iron-based superconductors comprise layers of FeAs or FeSe with some combination of group I, group II or lanthanide oxide layers, and usually some doping. To make...

In the series R2PdSi3,the Nd compound is considered to be an anomalous as it orders ferromagnetically (TC= 16 K) with a weak frequency-dependent ac susceptibility (χ)...

The main purpose of this investigation is to discern the localized and itinerant contributions in the ferromagnertic superconductor UIr.Field dependent MuSR measurments up to...
