Compressibility and Tilting of Polyhedra within Sr2NiMoO6 at High Pressure
Ordered double perovskites (also known as elpasolites) have the general formula A2BBO6 where A is generally a rare earth metal or alkaline earth metal and where B and B are... -
Exploring piezomagnetism in Mn3NiN thin films
The family of manganese antiperovskites with the formula Mn3+xT1-xN (T = Sn, Ni, Ga..) have recently attracted much attention due to the range of interesting properties they... -
Devil's staircase in the Kondo lattice semimetal CeSbSe
We propose to determine the magnetic structure of a new material, CeSbSe, at zero field and in magnetic fields up to 3 T, using the unique capabilities of the WISH... -
Magnetic order in the quantum critical phase of Sr3Ru2O7
Many novel electronic ground states form in close proximity to quantum critical points (QCPs), that is, the point where a continuous phase transition occurs at zero temperature.... -
Interactions of polyfluorinated substances with a phospholipid bilayer
Poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) have been used in various industrial applications and consumer products, but have received increasing global concern due to their... -
Neutron Powder Diffraction Experiments on Ternary Alkali Metal Palladium and ...
Na2PdC2 and Na2PtC2 are the first examples of ternary alkali metal transition metal acetylides. They were synthesized and structurally characterised by our group in 2001 based... -
Magnetic Excitations in an Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Kagome Lattice Antiferrom...
The material Cu(1,3-benzenedicarboxylate) (C8H4CuO4) features structurally perfect kagome lattice planes of spin-1/2 copper2+ ions, with the separated by organic linkers. High... -
Pair distribution function analysis of stacking disorder in ice
Very recently, the metastable cubic ice phase was renamed to stacking-disordered ice (ice Isd) in order to emphasise the fact that this form of ice contains not only cubic... -
Characterisation of Spin density Wave phase in Na2Ti2(Sb,As)2O
The formation of charge and spin density wave (CDW and SDW) states in metallic systems isdriven by Fermi surface instabilities that are often found to compete with... -
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... -
Correlation between crystalline and magnetic structures, and polarization in ...
TbMnO3 attracts special attention due to its large magnetoelectric coupling, polarization flop and ferro-paramagnetic phase transition, both induced by magnetic field. Despite... -
