Investigating the stability and energetics of the hidden low temperature skyr...
Magnetic skyrmions are topologically protected spin structures with potential uses in low power devices. Cu2OSeO3 is a cubic material containing both skyrmions and other spin... -
Quantum critical dynamics in the presence of disorder
Quantum phase transitions are abrupt qualitative changes of a system's groundstate occurring only at exactly zero temperature. Such critical points - although never reachable... -
Dirac Nodal Line Magnons in a Stacked Honeycomb Magnet
On the basis of exchange couplings obtained from early inelastic neutron measurements, we conjecture that the stacked honeycomb magnet FeTiO3 contains Dirac nodal lines in the... -
Local magnetism in graphene / transition metal oxide nanocomposites
Properties of graphene that make it an important material are its exceptionally high conductivity, massless fermions and a high velocity of electrons near the Dirac points.... -
Negative thermal expansion in V2OPO4
Much effort has been devoted to the research of new NTE materials and the understanding of the mechanism driving this phenomenon. As part of our ERC grant on orbital... -
Investigation of modulated crystal and magnetic structure of Ni-Pt-Mn-Ga ferr...
Ferromagnetic shape memory alloys (FSMAs) are of recent interest because they exhibit a shapememory effect that can be driven by magnetic fields. Thus, FSMAs are important for... -
Characterising the amorphicity and porosity of ice aggregates in planet-formi...
With the discovery of almost 3000 exo-planets it is clear that planet formation is a by-product of star formation, yet in the micron ? cm size range, where relative velocities... -
High resolution powder diffraction on Sm based pyrochlores
Magnetic frustration is a hot topic in solid state physics, mainly due to the topological new phases of matter that frustration mechanisms can drive (vide Physics Nobel Prize... -
Insights into the structure of mechanochemically-synthesised ternary lithium ...
In the current work, we study inorganic solid-state electrolytes for lithium-ion batteries. These materials, unlike the traditional liquid electrolytes, could lead to a... -
Study of the S(Q, w) map of propane/propene adsorbed on non-charged ITQ-29 Ze...
Zeolites are perhaps the most successful microporous materials used for catalysis and separation processes in refineries and chemical industries[1-3]. This is due to the... -

Local structure study of Cr-Fe alloys with enhanced magnetovolume effect
Negative thermal expansion (NTE) materials, the volume of a material abnormally contract with the increase of temperature, is closed related to the magnetovolume effect in... -
A search for the signatures of time reversal symmetry breaking in some superc...
Time reversal symmetry (TRS) breaking in a superconductor is often taken as evidence of unconventional pairing states. The recent observation of TRS breaking in several... -
In situ NPD investigation of double perovskite manganites in wet hydrogen atm...
The aim of the experiment is to investigate by means of in situ NPD the structural behavior of two new Mn-rich double perovskites compounds, NdBaCo1.5Mn0.5O5+d and NdBaMn2O5+d... -
Unidentified Phase Transition in Polar Lanthanum Tantalate (LaTaO4)
The family of crystals with formula ABX4 represent a very interesting class of ferroelectrics that are extremely two-dimensional. Fluorides have been extensively researched but... -

Ligand self aggregation is a common problem when studying interactions with bio(macro)molecules. In particular for techniques requiring relatively high ligand concentrations,... -
Temperature-dependent crystal structure analysis of new pyrochlore ruthenate ...
In search for new materials with exotic electronic states, one often turns to strongly correlated materials. Ruthenium oxides attract attention as they exhibit intriguing... -
Spin ordering in strongly geometrically frustrated magnets YCa3(MO)3(BO3)4 (M...
Geometrically frustrated magnetism (GFM) occurs in systems where magnetic cations (spins) are located on a lattice with a triangular geometry and there are antiferromagnetic... -
Low-energy spin dynamics of a quantum analogue of ice
Quantum spin liquids are exotic states of magnetic matter in which conventional magnetic ordering is suppressed. Magnetic analogues of ice are good candidates to observe this...
