Alpha-CaCr2O4: magnetic study of a new case of triangulaire Cr-lattice
We propose to study a layered oxide in which chromium cations describe a triangular array. Itseems us that no magnetic data are reported up to now for this alpha-CaCr2O4... -
Neutron diffraction and µSR investigation on YbPd
YbPd crystallizes in the cubic CsCl-type structure and reported to have magnetically ordered ground state with the mixed valence of the Yb ion. Further, it under goes through... -
Structural phase diagram of rare earth substituted multiferroic BiFeO3 - revi...
BiFeO3 is the most widely studied multiferroic and rare earth doping overcomes problems associated with phase metastability and leakage which have hampered applications. We... -
Study of magnetic spiral in the room temperature multiferroic BiFeO3 - PbTiO3
BiFeO3 is a room temperature multiferroic, displaying both ferroelectric and antiferromagnetic (AFE) ordering. x-BiFeO3 - (1-x)-PbTiO3 is also multiferroic at room temperature... -
The origin of the ferromagnetic behavior in room temperature multiferroics Bi...
The long period cycloid in multiferroic BiFeO3 influences the potential applications of this material and it has been shown that doping (with La and Mn) enlarges the cycloid... -
Nature of the ground state of Dy2Ti2O7 spin ice
Spin ice (SI) is a state of matter characterized by a residual (Pauling) entropy and unusual correlations. The huge interest in SI materials from the magnetism community stems... -
Structural Studies of Li(ND3)n11BD4
On exposure to ammonia, Li(11)BD4 forms the ammoniate Li(11)BD4(ND3)n. Our recent experiment (RB820252) has shown that there are four distinct crystalline phases in the... -
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... -
Quantum magnetism in lanthanide gallium garnet magnetocaloric materials
Geometrically frustrated lanthanide gallium garnets find practical applications as low temperature magnetocalorics, but the competing interactions in these materials may give... -
Structure and magnetic properties of Sr4Fe6O12
Despite many previous attempts, Sr4Fe6O12 (the expected fully reduced composition for Sr4Fe6O13-x) has not been synthesised. It is of interest because it is believed to contain... -
Spin ordering in the iridium oxide pyrochlore A2Ir2O7
Here we propose to search for magnetic order in 3 variants of the A2Ir2O7 (A=Y, Nd, and Lu) system. A fundamentally new, moderately-coupled, electronic ground state has been... -
Mesostructured titania films from ethanolic solutions
In this proposal we wish to continue our current work on mesostructured inorganic films in largely ethanolic solutions, containing limited amounts of water. Transition metal... -
HIGH RESOLUTION NEUTRON DIFFRACTION STUDIES ON NEW POLYMORPHS OF MAGENSIUM TE...
The development of high energy density and high efficiency hydrogen storage materials is widely considered to be one of the most challenging barriers to the adoption of fuel... -
Correlation between structure and properties in Bi0.7La0.3FeO3
Bi0.7La0.3FeO3 has received extensive attention in the past years, since this compound exhibits simultaneously ferroelectricity and ferromagnetism at room temperature. Despite... -
Completing the Magnetic Ordering-Crystal Structure Phase Diagram of Supercond...
The key objective is to measure three samples of composition Fe(1.05)Te, Fe(1.12)Te, and Fe(1.14)Te as a function of temperature (base to 80 K) through their magnetic ordering... -
Competing degenrate magnetic states in Ba1-xNaxFe2As2
Magnetic and superconducting ground states have been proposed to coexist in a relatively narrow compositional range in the so-called 122 pnictide superconductors. We recently... -
The hydration and ordering of lamellar block copolymer films prior to the for...
The key to the use of polymer vesicles as effective molecular delivery systems is in the ability to efficiently encapsulate a molecular payload within the vesicle. We would like... -
