The discovery of slow relaxation of the magnetization and quantum effects in the single-molecule magnet (SMM) Mn12-ac in 1993 has inspired both physicist and chemist alike. A... -
Cascading magnetization plateaus in monoclinic CoV2O6
The aim of this proposal is to understand the origin of the cascade of magnetisation plateaus in monoclinic CoV2O6. While 1/3 plateaus have been reported in the literature,... -
Quasielastic scattering in stuffed spin ices: defects or low lying singlets?
The subjects of this proposal, Ho2+xTi2-xO7-x/2, are brand new materials1 related to Ho2Ti2O7, a spin ice2,3. They have the remarkable property of remaining disordered at very... -
