Cubic A2B2O7 oxides with A standing for a rare-earth element and B for a transition or main block metal have been systematically studied for their frequently exotic...

We plan to study the temperature dependence of magnetic excitations in the optimally doped high-Tc superconductor Bi$2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O${8+\delta}$ (BSCCO). We have previously...

Recently there has been a renaissance in the investigation of materials which simultaneously exhibit magnetic and electric ordering with these materials expected to find...

Jarosite minerals are of great importance to a range of mineral processing and research applications, as well as significant to the understanding of the environmental history of...

Noncentrosymmetric (NCS) materials have attracted attention because of their broken inversion symmetry, leading to unconventional superconducting properties including spin...

This proposal requests 6 days on Tosca to investigate the nature of local structure and proton sites in the proton conducting brownmillerite system Ba2In1.85M0.15O6H2 (M = In,...

Croconic acid has recently emerged as the first example of an above room-temperature organic single component ferroelectric. Our goal is to determine its crystal structure at...

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...

We have recently prepared a new strontium ruthenate, SrRu2O6, using hydrothermal chemistry. The material shows magnetic order, probably ferromagnetic, than persists above, and...

In recent years, there has been a large research interest in noncentrosymmetric systems in part due to the exotic physics these systems display. Examples of chiral magnets...

High sorption capacities and enhanced interaction strengths are the two most fundamental prerequisites for the deployment of carbon-based materials as hydrogen-storage media. In...

Interface effects are attracting a renewed interest in recent years. It resides in the fact that when an interface is formed the break of symmetry gives rise to entirely new...

Recently multiferroic materials have been studied for possible potential application in next-generation information technologies and systems, which possess a higher memory speed...

We propose an investigation of the spin-waves in the recently discovered room-temperature skyrmion material Co8Zn8Mn4. The ground state of Co8Zn8Mn4 is a very long wavelength...

We request one day of beam-time on POLARIS to collect Neutron Diffraction (ND) data from three novel 12H-type hexagonal perovskites that exhibit higher than expected...

Alkali metals are well-known to form regularly-layered graphite intercalation compounds (GICs) which exhibit a number of novel and practically important structural and...

Cubic Argyrodites, Li6PS5X, are promising candidates for solid state electrolytes and much effort is put in understanding their structure property relation. NMR studies...

In recent years there has been a resurgence in research dedicated to ferroelectric materials primarily due to the combination of the requirement for Pb-free replacements for...

The electrochemical energy storage and conversion devices are the key components in future?s smart energy grids enabling on-demand and efficient energy usage. To date, flow,...

Recently, the first nitrogen-containing iron pnictide superconductors ThFeAsN, has been discovered with Tc = 30 K. We have investigated the gap symmetry in ThFeAsN using musr....
