Magnetic structure of a new quantum magnet
SrCuTe2O6 is a quantum magnet featuring spin-1/2 magnetic ions that are coupled intoantiferromagnetic chains with frustrated interchain coupling. An ideal... -
Interfacial Structures of Co-sensitized Dye-sensitized Solar Cell Working Ele...
Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) are promising candidates for building integrated photovoltaics. The use of multiple dyes simultaneously, co-sensitization, promises improved... -
Neutron Diffraction study of Highly Frustrated SrEr2O4
We propose to measure the neutron diffraction pattern of a single crystal sample of SrEr2O4, using the WISH diffractometer. As the magnetic Er ions in this compound are linked... -
Mapping the highly complex magnetic phase diagram of TmCu
This proposal forms part of our project to investigate the implications of non-trivial real-space topology in multi-k magnetic structures. We are here focusing on the rare earth... -
Verification of extended inverse Dzyloshinskii-Moriya mechanism by comparison...
We propose to perform neutron diffraction experiments on single crystals, 3R-AgFeO2 and 2H-AgFeO2 on WISH. Recently, we have studied magnetic orderings and ferroelectricity of... -
Commissioning of the Sputnik pressure cell at low temperatures
making it available to users in the future -
The Effect of Pressure on the Low Temperature Magnetic Structure of the CMR M...
Colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) is observed in the oxypnictide NdMnAsO1-xFx (x = 0 - 0.085) at low temperature. The CMR in NdMnAsO1-xFx arises due to competition between a... -
Muon Spin Relaxation detection of Spin-Polarized Conduction Electrons in Silicon
The proposed experiment is to observe optical spin-injection in Silicon through MuSR detection. An important part of research in next generation electronics focusses on the... -
Investigation for pressure-induced ferroelectric polarization flop phenomenon...
We propose to perform neutron diffraction experiments under high-pressure on multiferroic TbMnO3 using WISH in combination with hybrid-anvil-type high-pressure device. Recently,... -
Magnetic Structure of the double charge ordered multiferroic perovskites HgMn...
Understanding the magnetic structure of the perovskite manganites has been a significant field of research over the past 20 year due of their numerous technologically relevant... -
The phase diagram of the spin-density-wave metamagnet Sr3Ru2O7
Sr3Ru2O7 is an unusual layered oxide metamagnetic metal. It has been know for some time that the application of a large magnetic field (~8 T) perpendicular to the RuO2 planes... -
Investigation of antiferromagnetic long-range interactions in Co-based Heusle...
Ni-Mn based Heusler alloys with composition related to the stoichiometry Ni2MnX, with X belonging to the IIIA-VA chemical species, are widely considered as a class of... -
Search for the spin liquid phase in terbium gallium garnet.
Usually, magnetic materials can be understood by imagining them as orderly rows of communicating, atomic-sized bar magnets (or "spins") which organize themselves into a... -
Amorphous Micrometre-Sized Water Ice Particles for Planetary Science Experime...
We request 5 days on NIMROD to characterise the pressure and temperature dependent properties of amorphous icy particles generated in liquid ethane, as they will be used in... -
Muonium-photocarrier interaction in germanium
Having established the photo-MuSR method in intrinsic silicon to investigate excess carrier recombination lifetime and Mu-photocarrier dynamics in our previous experiments, we... -
Interlayer and Interparticle Water in Clays
Clay barriers are routinely used in nuclear waste repositories to isolate radionuclides from the biosphere. Such barriers have to be carefully designed to remain effective for... -
Magnetic and crystal structures of substituted BiFeO3 from high resolution ne...
The multiferroic perovskite BiFeO3 is the only material that displays both ferroelectric and antiferromagnetic order at RT. Significant efforts are aimed at better understanding... -
Motion of Diamagnetic Muonium Centres in II-IV-V2 Chalcopyrites
We propose to obtain the detailed temperature dependent diffusion characteristics for diamagnetic muonium defect centres, assumed to be a 'bare' muon, in selected members of the... -
Neutron diffraction of amorphous FePO4 and LiFePO4
We are convinced that a careful study of the atomic structure of a-FePO4 would provide very interesting insights into several phosphate systems, including phosphate glass...
