Spin dynamics in the zig-zag ladder beta-CaCr2O4
We propose to investigate the spin dynamics in the frustrated antiferromagnet beta-CaCr2O4. Its structure consist in one dimensional chains of Cr+3 forming the legs of zig-zag... -
Magnetic excitations in mesoporous hematite
We have recently prepared mesoporous forms of various metals oxides. In some cases the imposition of a mesostructure changes other properties of the material significantly. One... -
The collective spin excitations in the electron-doped superconductor BaFe2-xC...
We propose to measure the collective spin excitations over a wide energy range in BaFe2-xCoxAs2 (x=0.22). This compound is one of the FeAs based superconductors which have... -
Study of the protein denaturation in glassy matrices
The proposed experiment is addressed to use the MARI spectrometer to study the thermal denaturation process of the psychrophile enzyme alpha-amylase in presence of bioprotectant... -
Spin-orbit coupling and spin dynamics in hexagonal iridate
Hexagonal iridate Na2IrO3 has recently been proposed as a candidate material to exhibit strong spin-orbit coupling effects which may stabilize a Mott insulating state with...
