Laser-induced electron transfer in Trp-Tyr
We wish to perform longitudinal field measurements on the dipeptide Trp-Tyr under laserexcitation, to probe the electron transfer process within the molecule. We have already... -
Vibrations of a muoniated radical center and photochemistry in benzophenone
Benzophenone is an ideal material to study vibrations of a muon radical centre with near-IR laser light, as all C=O bonds in solid state are almost parallel to each other and it... -
Excited/Ground State of Kekulé di-radical Material Bisphenalenyl
Kekulé di-radical (KDR) with two radical centers of independent spins has a low-spin ground state (singlet S0 with antiparallel spins), and interestingly high-spin triplets (T1)... -
Searching for magnetic order in two nitronyl nitroxide isomers
Using nitronyl nitroxide radicals it is possible to prepare purely organic ferromagnets without inclusion of any transition metal or lanthanide ions. Muons are uniquely... -
Low Temperature Properties of a Uniform S=1/2 Triangular Lattice System
It is proposed to use TF muSR to study the low temperature, low field part of the phase diagram of Ba3CuSb2O9, a system with a uniform triangular lattice of S=1/2 Cu ions that... -
The effect of low-level substitutional disorder on Néel-skyrmion systems
The polar magnetic semiconductors GaV4S8 and GaV4Se8 have recently attracted attention as one of only two families of bulk materials hosting Néel-type skyrmions: nano-sized... -
Quantum spin liquids: beyond Herbertsmithite
We aim at exploring the ground state of new Cu2+ S=1/2 kagome compounds, isomorphic to the now-celebrated Herbertsmithite, namely CdCu3(OH)6Cl2 and MgCu3(OH)6Cl2. Due to the... -
Single molecular TIPS-pentacene isolated in a solid-state matrix
We have recently been awarded beamtime on the Cronus spectrometer, via the Riken proposal system, to investigate the possibility of performing solid-state laser excitation...
