Magnetic Properties of Rare-Earth Carbonates
We have prepared a new family of rare-earth carbonates, R4(CO3)6(H2O)2en (R=Dy-Lu). With the exception of R=Er, all materials exhibit a steadily decreasing meff below 70K. The... -
Structure-Property Relationships in Polymorphs of Mn(CN)2
We will determine the atomic and magnetic structure of two polymorphs of manganese cyanide, Mn(CN)2, which exhibit negative thermal expansion (NTE). The two forms are related;... -
Structure-Property Relationships in Photoluminescent Platinum and Palladium C...
The average and local structure in the mixed-metal cyanides, Ni1/2Pt1/2(CN)2, Ni1/2Pd1/2(CN)2 and Pd1/2Pt1/2(CN)2 will be determined to give the M-C and M-N bond lengths, the...
