Hourglass dispersion in overdoped manganites
Overdoped manganites were recently shown to exhibit stripe-like ordering of charges orbitals and magnetic moments. The magnetic excitations in these materials show close... -

Neutron diffuse scattering from multiferroic single crystal BiFeO3
BiFeO3 is a canonical multiferroic material. We know that local (nanoscale) order is crucial in explaining the behaviour of conventional ferroelectrics, and reciprocal space... -
Electronic state of Co3+ in LaCoO3
We will search for spin-orbit transitions of the Co3+ ions in LaCoO3. The ground state is a non-magnetic singlet, but there continues to be a debate about the nature of the... -

Structural Investigations of Pb(In1/2Nb1/2)O3-Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-PbTiO3 Piezoel...
Discovery and development of advanced materials requires understanding and control of the relationship between composition, structure and function. In crystalline materials,... -
Spin dynamics in the extended Kagome system YBaCo4O(7+x)
A recently discovered new class of geometrically frustrated magnets is the family of cobalt oxides RBaCo4O7 (R=rare earth or Y). The structure is built up CoO4 tetrahedra which... -
Two-Dimensional Incommensurate Modulation in Melilite
We have prepared large single crystals of the melilite electroltyes Ln1+xCaxGa3O7+d; (Ln = La and Nd; x = 0 and 0.5) using a floating zone mirror furnace. We have characterised... -
Variable Temperature studies of an anomalous proton sponge benzoic acid co-cr...
As part of a long-running programme, we have identified many co-crystallisation systems producing hydrogen-bonded molecular complexes yielding fascinating X-ray diffraction and... -
Detailed characterisation of metastable phase fractions in ZrW2O8
Cubic alpha-ZrW2O8 is the classic example of a material exhibiting the unusual property of negative thermal expansion (NTE). Despite this effect having been discovered 20 years... -
Long-range cationic ordering in metal-organic perovskite solid solutions
The structure of the metal guanadinium formates is analogous to perovskite; the Cu compound is of particular interest as a potential multiferroic. We have recently demonstrated... -
Structural Studies of 9-methyltriptycenes
We aim at obtaining reliable structural information for selected compounds from a series of four 9-methyltripticene derivatives. These compounds form in the solid state... -
Oxygen-deficient quantum spin ice
In quantum analogues of the spin ice materials quantum mechanical tunneling between ground states is expected, and exotic emergent behaviour has been predicted including a Higgs... -
Identifying hydrides in a rhenium hydroborylation catalyst
The characterization of complexes that act as catalysts for chemical transformations is an important feature in the development of new methods of use to a sustainable chemicals... -
Charge ordering in Ortho-VIII YBCO
The relationship between spin and charge correlations (stripes) continues to be one of the major issues in high temperature (cuprate) superconductivity. Under some circumstances... -
Single-crystal neutron diffraction studies of chain-ordered brownmillerite su...
We are performing structural investigations of a series of brownmillerites (Sr,Ca)2(Fe,Co)2O5 which display long-range modulated ordering of oxygen vacancies at ambient and high... -
Determination of the Crystallographic and Magnetic structures of RbMnBr3, RbF...
We propose to study the crystal structures of RbMnBr3, RbFeBr3 and RbNiBr3 between 300 and 0.3 K. RbMnBr3 under goes two structural phase transition by reducing Rb coordination.... -
Magnetic Structure and Martensite Twin-Laws of ferromagnetic Co2-Ni-Ga and Fe...
Pseudoelastic, ferromagnetic Co2NiGa type high-temperature shape memory alloys (HT-SMAs) are characterized by a wide range of tunable transformation temperatures and lower... -
Defects and spin correlations in yttrium-doped spin ice
Excitations in spin ice fractionalize into de-confined magnetic monopoles that interact with each other via the magnetic Coulomb interaction. Substituting rare earth ions with...
