The Ruddlesden-Popper type Pr2-xNiO4±delta is one of the most potential membrane materials for the design of intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cell cathodes and oxygen...

BaCo2V2O8 is a good realization of the spin-1/2 quasi-1D Ising-like antiferromagnet (AF). At zero field, a Néel magnetic order occurs below 5.4 K. Applying a magnetic field...

Studies on the magnetic properties of atacamite, Cu2Cl(OH)3, at low temperatures have revealed a behavior which is characteristic for frustrated magnetic systems. The results of...

We propose to study the defect behaviour of ZnGeN2 as a representative material for the emerging class of Zn-IV-N2 solar absorber materials. As earth-abundant alternatives to...

The Bi1-xNdxFe1-yCoyO3 (BNFC) compositions emerge as materials with very rich and not completely understood physical behavior. We have recently identified the existence of two...
