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... -
High-energy excitations in a spin orbital liquid on the diamond lattice
This proposal is part of our research programme on spin and orbital order in frustrated systems. The spinel FeSc2S4 realises an exotic ¿spin-orbital liquid¿ with no magnetic or... -
Probing the origin of low thermal conductivity in thermoelectric materials
Thermoelectric materials are increasingly attracting attention due to their potential for use in devices for waste heat energy recovery. Bismuth copper oxychalcogenides have... -
The effect of a vanishing pseudogap on the magnetic excitations in overdoped ...
One of the major issues in high temperature superconductivity is the nature of the so called pseudogap phase. A related question is whether the pseudogap controls the evolution... -
Is there an incommensurate magnetic resonance in La2-xSrxCuO4?
Most optimally-doped high- Tc cuprate superconductors show a magnetic excitation (known as the 'resonance') at q=(pi,pi ) whose intensity increases sharply below Tc. This... -
The search for long range exchange interactions in the S=1 square lattice ant...
Exchange interactions in insulators can be understood in terms of the Andersen exchange picture in which the Hamiltonian has two contributions: (i) a kinetic term characterized... -
The relationship between the pseudogap and magnetic excitations in La2-xSrxCuO4
This proposal is part of an ongoing project to relate the magnetic excitations to other electronic properties of the cuprate superconductors. We have recently proposed that the... -
High Temperature study of BaFe2As2
Recent unpublished data collected at MAPS by our group revealed that the spin wave dispersion of the Ba(122) parent differ significantly from Ca(122). In Ba(122) there is a... -

Oxides containing heavy transition-metal ions with four d electrons (d^4) surrounded by an octahedron of oxygen ions have recently been predicted to display a novel type of... -
High precision measurements of the spin wave dispersion in Yttrium Iron Garnet
Yttrium Iron Garnet (YIG) is a material with extremely wide ranging applications, having the narrowest ferromagnetic resonance linewidth of any known material. Despite decades... -

Magnetic excitations at the critical pseudogap point, p=0.19, in La2-xSrxCuO4
We propose to measure the spin excitation spectrum in cuprate superconductor, La2-xSrxCuO4 (LSCO) at x=0.19. Our aim is to resolve the doping dependence of the 18 meV spin... -
The Structure of the High-Energy ¿Paramagnon¿ Excitations in La2-xSrxCuO4
A major problem in physics is the identification of the mechanism of high-temperature superconductivity. Many theories purport to explain the high-Tc phenomenon. In most... -
Spin Excitations and "Hourglass" Dispersion in the Model High-Tc superconduct...
The unique "hourglass"-type dispersion observed within several classes of hole-doped cuprates has garnered considerable theoretical and experimental interest. Here we propose to... -
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...
