Tetrahedrites are minerals which consist largely of earth-abundant and environmentally-friendly elements (copper and sulfur). This family of materials is attracting much...

The multiferroic perovskite BiFeO3 is the only material that displays both ferroelectric and antiferromagnetic order at RT. Significant efforts are aimed at better understanding...

The aim of the present proposal is to experimentally investigate the magnetic order below Tc in the cubic quasicrystal approximant Au5.027Si1.307Tb, which orders ferro- or...

Recently synthesized new perovskite TlMnO3 is distinct in respect of crystal structure (space group) and orbital ordering from those of the previously known trivalent perovskite...

One of the major themes in solid-state physics is the realisation of exotic types of relativistic electrons which travel at speeds much slower than the speed of light. These...

Magnetic equiatomic alloys (MEAs) of the general formula MM'X (M, M' = transition metals, X = Si, Ge, Sn) undergo magnetostructural transition of martensitic type on cooling...

We will carry out a definitive local structure investigation of the ferroelectric transition in [ND4][Zn(DCOO)3]. This compound is seen as the canonical example of a...

The late first row transition metal monoxides are the canonical antiferromagnets. Their magnetic structures were first determined many decades ago but contemporary studies have...

The interplay between orbital order and magnetism in insulating manganites has been extensively studied following the seminal neutron diffraction experiments of Wollan and...

This proposal is to measure the evolution of the magnetic structures of a series of iron oxide chalcogenides and compare the structures as a function of cation sizes and with...

Zeolites are porous crystals that make it possible to generate regularly arrayed alkali-metal nanoclusters. Potassium clusters arrayed in zeolite A show ferromagnetism below 7 K...

Highly oxidized iron oxides such as SrFe4+O3, CaFe4+O3, and CaCu3Fe4O12 display unusual electronic and magnetic behaviors due to the highly covalent nature of the Fe-O...

Unconventional superconductivity has recently been suggested in the new class of iron-based superconductors in which unusual gap symmetries have been observed together with...

Ni-Mn based Heusler alloys with composition related to the stoichiometry Ni2MnX, with X belonging to the IIIA-VA chemical species, are widely considered as a class of...

Hexaferrites are well known for their applications as permanent magnet and memory devices. In recent years, the interest in hexaferrite has grown from the point of view of...

We propose to perform neutron diffraction experiments under high-pressure and magnetic field condition for multiferroic DyMnO3, using WISH beamline in combination with...

Preliminary bulk measurements show that Ba(TiO)Cu4(PO4)4 is a potentially exciting candidate for studies of low-dimensional magnetism. However, currently relatively little is...

The NH4M(formate)3 (M = Mn, Fe, Co and Ni) series are the most promising members of a new family of multiferroics in which ferroelectric ordering is driven by hydrogen-bonding...

Understanding the magnetic structure of the perovskite manganites has been a significant field of research over the past 20 year due of their numerous technologically relevant...

The spin Jahn-Teller effect stabilises 3D magnetic order in an otherwise frustrated system via magnetoelastic coupling, spontaneously at the magnetic phase transition. Examples...
