This proposal is part of our research programme to explore the interplay of thermal and quantum fluctuations near zero-temperature quantum phase transitions. Here we plan to use... -
The phase diagram of the spin-density-wave metamagnet Sr3Ru2O7
Sr3Ru2O7 is an unusual layered oxide metamagnetic metal. It has been know for some time that the application of a large magnetic field (~8 T) perpendicular to the RuO2 planes... -
Giant exchange bias in antiperovskite Mn3Zn1-XCoXN: a neutron diffraction study
Exchange bias (EB) effect, characterized by a shift of the hysteresis loop along the magnetic field axis, has attracted considerable attention because of its significance in... -
Ground and field induced states in the BaCo2As2O7 and BaCo2(As3O6)2 1D chain ...
One-dimensional (1D) or two-dimensional (2D) topologies between magnetic ions generally favour strong magnetic anisotropy and offer exotic fundamental states and other phenomena... -

High field study of multipiezo Pb2MnO4
Manganese based oxides are of great interest for both spintronic and multiferroic applications.Pb2MnO4 crystallizes in the acentric but non-polar space group P-421c which allows... -
Magnetic-field induced long-range spin order in quantum spin liquid candidate...
Quantum spin liquid (QSL) is a novel state of matter where the spins are highly entangled with one another but fluctuate strongly down to zero temperature. It may be associated... -
Metallic chains on a triangular lattice
Both 1D physics (dimensional frustration) and geometric frustration offer ways of achieving unusual quantum ground states that defy the usual tendency for systems to order at... -

We propose to perform neutron diffraction experiments under high-pressure and high-magnetic-filed on multiferroic CuFeO2 using WISH in combination with hybrid-anvil-cell (up to... -
Mapping the highly complex magnetic phase diagram of TmCu
This proposal forms part of our project to investigate the implications of non-trivial real-space topology in multi-k magnetic structures. We are here focusing on the rare earth... -
Correlation between crystalline and magnetic structures, and polarization in ...
TbMnO3 attracts special attention due to its large magnetoelectric coupling, polarization flop and ferro-paramagnetic phase transition, both induced by magnetic field. Despite... -
Neutron Diffraction study of Highly Frustrated SrEr2O4
We propose to measure the neutron diffraction pattern of a single crystal sample of SrEr2O4, using the WISH diffractometer. As the magnetic Er ions in this compound are linked... -

Ammonia borane (AB) is one of the most promising hydrogen storage materials. We have extensively studied the low temperature behaviour of this material This proposal asks for 3... -
Low Temperature Magnetic Properties of new Strontium(V) Ruthenate, SrRu2O6.
Layered strontium ruthenate materials are a prime example of how closely competing energy scales found in strongly correlated electron systems can give rise to a broad range of... -
Magnetic order in the quantum critical phase of Sr3Ru2O7
Many novel electronic ground states form in close proximity to quantum critical points (QCPs), that is, the point where a continuous phase transition occurs at zero temperature....
