Negative muon spin rotation and relaxation for MgB2 at low temperatures
This is a continuation negative-muon spin rotation and relaxation (mu-SR) experiment on MgB2 having a superconducting transition at 39 K. Since positive muons start to diffuse... -
Probing hybridization strength and homogeneity of valence mixing in magnetica...
The compounds we want to study belong to the well-known tetragonal RM2X2 family (R: rare earth, M: d element, X: Ge, Si). In EuCu2(SixGe1-x)2, the Eu valence changes, as a... -
Cation vacancy ordering in calcium bismuth molybdate scheelite type phases
Cation-vacancy sheelite-type phases in the Ca1-3xBi2x[]xMoO4 system (where [] represents a cation vacancy) are being investigated for applications in wireless communication... -
Structural Aspects and Magnetic Order in Fe/Co based K2NiF4-type oxide fluorides
K2NiF4-type materials have attracted significant interest for a wide range of applications. While perovskite-based Fe oxide fluorides tend not to be thermally stable, e.g.... -
