Muon spin relaxation study on cobalt arsenides ACo2As2 (A = Ca, Sr and Ba)
Recent investigations of physical properties of ACo2As2 (A = Ca, Sr, Ba) indicate that Co-based arsenides could be a potential parent compound like the parent AFe2As2. While... -
Quantum magnetism of the low-dimensional copper carbodiimide CuNCN
Our proposal aims at microscopic investigation of magnetism of the novel copper-based low-dimensional spin system CuNCN, the first compound with a pure nitride environment of... -
Disorder-induced suppression of magnetic ordering in frustrated Co(1/3-d)NbS2
Magnetic ordering in frustrated systems with large magnetic interactions remains a key question in condensed matter physics. Despite strong theoretical and experimental quest to... -
Muonium in cubic stabilized zirconia
This proposal is part of a long-range program aiming at determining the stable charge-stateconfigurations, site and impurity energy levels (donor and/or acceptor) of hydrogen in... -
Anisotropic Li+ diffusion in the cathode material LiFePO4
LiFePO4 is cathode material for Li ion batteries. One of the key functional properties is the Li-ion diffusion. Theoretical calculations showed that Li diffusion along the [010]... -
Local magnetism, magnetic fluctuations and disorder, and lattice distortions ...
We aim at performing temperature (2-300K) and magnetic field (0-5T) dependent muon SR on a 1X1 cm2 mosaic, made of 4* 5x5x2 mm3 TbMn0.98Fe0.02O3 single crystals (largest area... -
Investigating Magnetic Ordering in Ba2MnWO6 and Sr2MnWO6
Cubic double perovskites provide a rare example of an undistorted face-centred cubic lattice, made up of edge sharing regular tetrahedra. In Ba2MnWO6, antiferromagnetically... -
Coupling of chains in a new, highly tuneable, isostructural series of model q...
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... -
Short range magnetic order in the compositionally modulated Bi2Cr4/3Ni2/3O6 p...
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... -
muSR study of field-induced phases in a 1-dimensional Ising system
MV2O6 brannerites have a network structure in which chains of edge-sharing MO6 octahedra result in 1-dimensional magnetic properties. A recent study reported monoclinic CoV2O6... -
Spin liquid properties of the S=1/2 triangular lattice system Li2ZnMo3O8
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... -
Muon spin relaxation study of R2RuO5 (R = Pr, Nd, Sm, Tb)
R2RuO5 (R = Pr, Nd, Sm, Gd, Tb) are known to exhibit interesting physical properties. They all show magnetic ordering between 8 ¿ 24 K. They also show large Sommerfeld... -
2D vs. 3D ordering in CrCl3, a Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a honeycomb lattice
Van der Waals solids containing two-dimensional lattices of magnetic moments with only weak interlayer coupling have attracted significant scientific interest due to their... -
