Spin-Driven Multiferroics CdMn7O12 and SrMn7O12
We propose to perform neutron diffraction experiments on powder samples of possible spin-induced multiferroic materials, 114CdMn7O12 and SrMn7O12, at ambient pressure and low... -
The magnetic structures of RMn7O12 (R = Nd, Sm, Dy, Y)
Materials with the perovskite crystal structure are ubiquitous in condensed matter physics. Despite being known for several years, the quadruple perovskites, which afford... -
Magnetic structure of new manganite TlMnO3
Recently synthesized new perovskite TlMnO3 is distinct in respect of crystal structure (space group) and orbital ordering from those of the previously known trivalent perovskite... -
Magneto-orbital coupling in PbMn7-xFexO12
The interplay between orbital order and magnetism in insulating manganites has been extensively studied following the seminal neutron diffraction experiments of Wollan and... -
Magnetoelastic Coupling and for Competing Ground States in (Ba1-xAx)Fe2As2 (A...
Unconventional superconductivity has recently been suggested in the new class of iron-based superconductors in which unusual gap symmetries have been observed together with... -
Understanding the role of lanthanides in magnetic oxyselenides: Pr2O2Fe2OSe2
This proposal requests time to investigate the influence of an applied magnetic field on the oxyselenide Pr2O2Fe2OSe2. A metamagnetic transition involving ordering of Pr3+... -
Pressure effect on high-temperature multiferroic CuO studied by a single crys...
We propose to perform neutron diffraction experiment under high pressure condition, using a single crystal of CuO on WISH beamline. This monoxide is known as a multiferroic... -
Neutron analysis of the structure of SrAl2O4 from 300 to 1273 K.
SrAl2O4 is a stuffed tridymite that has attracted a good deal of interest, since doping with Eu2+ leads to a material with elastic-luminescent response. The structure and phase... -
Determining the magnetic structure of Na0.5Ca0.5Mn7O12: A candidate material ...
Magnetic and orbital ordering in the manganese based perovskites has been of huge interest in solid-state physics since the 1950's. More recently, the family of AA′3Mn4O12... -
In-situ Specific Heat Measurements and Order Disorder Phase Transition Studie...
We request 4 days on HRPD to perform combined specific heat and neutron powder diffraction measurements of C60 and the molecular hydrogen storage materials, ammonia borane and... -
Novel quantum spin liquid state in the S=3/2 dimer lattice in Ba3ZnRu2O9
We have discovered a novel type of quantum spin liquid in a hexagonal lattice of Ru5+ dimers in Ba3ZnRu2O9, where any traces of the Curie tail or glassy behavior have not been... -
Neutron diffraction on filled ices with C_0 structure prepared between 3 and ...
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... -
Entangled superconductivity and magnetic and charge density waves in A1-xA'xF...
We aim to study select samples of hole and electron doped (A,A')(Fe,B)2As2 (A=Ba, Sr, or Ca; A'=Na, K and B=Co, Ni, or Pt) iron pnictides. These materials exhibit robust...
