Giant magnetoresistance (GMR) is observed up to -49% in RuSr2R1.8-xY0.2CexCu2O10-d ruthenocuprates. The magnetotransport is very sensitive to lattice effects. As , the mean A...

We can trace the history of electrochemical cells just over two hundred years back to Luigi Galvani and Alessandro Volta¿s inventions, and perhaps more than a millennium further...

In the present proposal, we would like to investigate beta-Li2IrO3, a 5d based hyper-honeycomb system, where strong Kitaev-type anisotropy of magnetic couplings triggers a...

The iron-based superconductors are at the forefront of the research on unconventional superconductivity. The Barium-122 systems, doped with electrons, reveal a non-trivial...

We propose longitudinal field muSR on a 2D molecular magnetic system which has been suggested to have an unusual B-T phase diagram. Our goal is to probe the transition from...

The The recent discovery of superconductivity in FeAs-containing compounds (often known as the pnictides has provided a great stimulus to experiment and theory in the study of...

The molecular magnet [Sm(hfac)3(boaDTDA)]n is the first metal complex of a thiazyl-based neutral radical ligand to exhibit ferromagnetic ordering and was the subject of...

We will examine the impact of metal-halide hydrogen bond motifs and their ability to provide low-dimensional superexchange pathways. Specifically, we wish to investigate two new...

Spin based electronics (spintronics) is one of the most exciting and challenging areas in nanotechnology. It is expected to be of major scientific and social impact. Very little...

We request four days of beam time to conduct zero and longitudinal field measurements on iridate pyrochlores A2Ir2O7 (A = Y, Lu, Nd) in the temperature range 200 K to 2 K and in...

This proposal looks to study the electron spin relaxation using high field ALC measurements in two polymers, which differ only by the non-metal (i.e S or Se) in the polymer...

The iron-based superconductor LiFeAs exhibits a number of unique features distinguishing it from other materials in its class. As yet, these differences are unexplained. This...

Having established the photo-MuSR method in intrinsic silicon to investigate excess carrier recombination lifetime and Mu-photocarrier dynamics in our previous experiments, we...

We will examine the impact of metal-halide hydrogen bond motifs and their ability to provide low-dimensional superexchange pathways. Specifically, we wish to investigate two new...

A new family of FeAs superconductors have very recently (Autumn 2008) been discovered in which, rather than alternating rare earth oxide layers with FeAs layers (as for the new...

Carbon nanostructures presenting charge-transfer behavior (e.g. fullerene) can display high affinity to hydrogen and are promising materials for reversible hydrogen storage....

Topological physics was the subject of this year's Nobel Prize for Physics and over forty years after the groundbreaking work of Kosterlitz, Thouless and Haldane, remains an...

Low-dimensional quantum magnetism continues to be of great theoretical and experimental interest, as reduced dimensionality supports strong quantum fluctuations which can result...

We have observed an anomalous monotonically increasing longitudinal field relaxation rate in LiY_(1-x)Ho_xF_4 for applied fields above 1000 G (along the c-axis) and at a...

In the metal-organic perovskite copper guanidinium formate, correlated Jahn-Teller distortion gives rise to a 1D magnetic structure made up of Heisenberg antiferromagnetic...
