Understanding of Competing Magnetic Processes in La0.7Sr0.3MnxFe1-xO3 Perovskite
Perovskite manganates with the general formula L1-xAxMnO3 (e.g. L=La, Pr , Nd and A=Ca and Sr) have attracted significant interest as a result of their unusual transport and... -
Structural phase diagram of rare earth substituted multiferroic BiFeO3
BiFeO3 is one of the most widely studied multiferroics (ferroelectric TC ~ 830°C, and antiferromagnetic TN ~ 370°C). Rare earth doping has been shown to be a suitable method of... -
From giant magneto-elastic coupling to negative thermal expansion
We recently used high-resolution neutron diffraction on HRPD to observe the largest magneto-elastic coupling ever seen in a metallic magnet. The material studied was CoMnSi, a... -
Strain analysis of commensurate charge order/zener polaron ordering transitio...
High resolution powder diffraction data will be used to obtain lattice parameter and atomic coordinate variations as a function of temperature for Pr0.6Ca0.4MnO3, which has a... -
Variable Temperature Study of thallium and caesium azides
This proposal seeks to investigate the effect of temperature on the structures of thallium and caesium azide. High-resolution neutron powder diffraction data are necessary to...
