Dilution of the Near-Kagome Compound Vesignieite
Vesignieite, Cu3VBa2O8(OH)2, is one of very few materials approximating a kagome spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet, a model that is the ideal setting for novel quantum spin... -
Heterolytic Cleavage of H2 using Non-Metal Frustrated Lewis Pairs
The synthesis of Frustrated Lewis Pairs (FLP¿s) have recently experienced a huge surge in popularity as they have been found to be a novel approach for the activation of small... -
Spin Waves at High Temperature in the Parent Compound of the Superconductor F...
The recently discovered iron based superconductors have transition temperatures second only to the cuprates. The majority of these compounds display superconductivity after... -
Completing the Magnetic Ordering-Crystal Structure Phase Diagram of Supercond...
The key objective is to measure three samples of composition Fe(1.05)Te, Fe(1.12)Te, and Fe(1.14)Te as a function of temperature (base to 80 K) through their magnetic ordering... -
Neutron Diffraction Studies on Double-Hydrogen-Bridged Diborane(4) Compound
The object of the proposed experiment is to definitively locate hydrogen atoms on the extraordinary short B¿B bond by single crystal neutron diffraction method. Because the... -
Spin Waves in the Parent Compound of the Superconductor FeSexTe1-x (x=0)
The iron containing superconducting system FeSexTe1-x has a similar phase diagram to the cuprate superconductors, in that a non-superconducting antiferromagnetic parent compound...
