Investigating the superconducting and magnetic properties of two new supercon...
Recently, Eckert and co-authors synthesised osmium based two superconductors, NbOsSi and TaOsSi, and found that these compounds exhibit superconductivity below a transition... -
Low dimensional magnetism from metal-halide hydrogen bond motifs
We will examine the impact of metal-halide hydrogen bond motifs and their ability to provide low-dimensional superexchange pathways. Specifically, we wish to investigate two new... -

Spin glass behaviour in the disorder-free geometrically frustrated magnet Yb2...
Our susceptibility studies of the frustrated magnet Yb2Sn2O7 has revealed a spin glass transition of the Yb3+ magnetic lattice at T_g = 140 mK. To our knowledge, this... -
Fluorine-arsenide superconductors
A new family of FeAs superconductors have very recently (Autumn 2008) been discovered in which, rather than alternating rare earth oxide layers with FeAs layers (as for the new... -
Frustration-stabilized skyrmions in centrosymmetric compounds
Skyrmions are chiral magnetic spin textures that exist in a variety of different magnetic materials. Skyrmions are usually stabilized in noncentrosymmetric chiral materials by... -
Muon spin relaxation study of non-Fermi-liquid behaviour at the border magnet...
The understanding of mechanisms responsible for the formation of Non-Fermi Liquid state (NFL) and its relation to unconventional superconductivity is among the largest... -
Engineering exchange strength in S=1/2 molecule-based magnets
Recent progress in the field of molecular magnetism has shown the potential for gaining control over the structural building blocks of molecular materials in order to engineer...
