The charge transfer compound CuTCNQ (TCNQ = 7,7,8,8-Tetracyanoquinodimethane) exhibits switching between two electrical resistance states when subject to an electric field. It...

The vast majority of known ferroelectrics are inorganic compounds such as barium titanate and potassium dihydrogen phosphate. Contrary to naïve expectation, ferroelectricity in...

TaS2 is a quasi-2D metallic compound revealing strong electron-phonon coupling responsible for charge-density-wave (CDW) instabilities. The compound undergoes 3 CDW transitions;...

Magnetic cooling has recently become the focus of cooling system technology as it boasts important advantages in terms of power consumption and for the environment e.g. not...

We propose longitudinal muon spin depolarization measurements for two additional samples of Si(1-x)Ge(x) alloys in order to complete our study of the dependence of Mu(-/0)...

This proposal is to explore the evolution of magnetic ordering in two members of the homologous series CaFe2O4(FeO)n with n = 1, & 3, and to correlation the behaviour of the...

Thermal, magnetic, neutron and muSR measurements all point towards a gapless or almost gapless spin liquid ground state for the triangular lattice spin system of S=1/2 Mo3...

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...

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 proposing team has a well established experience in the study on samples containingH_2 and D_2. Our recent neutron spectroscopic results on sII and sH H_2-filled clathrate...

The physisorptive capacity of graphite-based nanomaterials for hydrogen is strongly dependent on their internal surface areas and pore dimensions. We have made electrospun...

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 most unconventional superconductors, the importance of antiferromagnetic fluctuations is widely acknowledged. In addition, cuprate and iron-pnictide superconductors often...

MuSR is useful technique/probe in studying small magnetic moment and also identifying magnetic order (short-range or long-range) in a magnetic material.Earlier report on neutron...

It is particularly challenging to synthesize a novel multiferroic material as it seems that the mechanisms that allow ferromagnets and ferroelectrics to work are mutually...

To the best of our knowledge, there is no previous work on using muons to measure photo-excited states in organic semiconductors or related materials. Our photo-excitation ideas...

The spin ice compounds Dy2Ti2O7 and Ho2Ti2O7 have come to enormous attention in the past year with the observation of excitations resembling magnetic monopoles. Here we propose...

Here we propose measurements on a unique, newly synthesized series of coordination polymers based on chains of Cu2+ ions. These have been designed with the intention of...

In this continuation proposal we will conclude our muon study of FeCrAs, a recently re-examined material that displays many of the above characteristics, suggesting that it is a...

We propose an investigation of the magnitude and fluctuations of internal magnetic fields in Mn-doped ZnGeP2. This chalcopyrite structured semiconductor has a ferromagnetic (FM)...
