Magnetism in a charge doped cuprate chain
We have recently succeeded in measuring the excitation spectrum of charge doped cuprate chains with a 90 degree Cu-O-Cu bonding geometry. This study resolved a long standing... -
Lattice vibrations of hydrogen impurities in a solid neon matrix
In recent incoherent inelastic neutron scattering experiments we have shown that the anharmonic single-particle dynamics of H2 can be measured with high precision in quantum... -
The Effect of Pressure on the Crystal Structure of Serine Hydrate
Serine monohydrate undergoes a phase transition at 5.2 GPa which involves reorientation of water molecules. It appears that this disrupts H-bonding elsewhere in the crystal,... -
The ground state of a Kondo ion: V dissolved in the noble metal Au.
The 'non-magnetic' ground state of a Kondo ion is generally believed to consist of the localised spin surrounded by a compensating cloud of conduction electrons coupled...
