We recently synthesised a new compound, K2Ni2(SO4)3, that allows the existence of non-trivial topologicalphases such as skyrmions. Specific heat measurements show the existence...

The aim of this proposal is to investigate in the methodology of Deep Inelastic Neutron Scattering (DINS) data analysis, with especial emphasis in the absolute normalisation of...

Emerging technologies require increasingly unusual functional materials and so understanding the origins of complex magnetic and electronic behaviour, and how these can be...

New manganese-based double perovskites Mn2-xCaxFeReO6 have been synthesised at high pressure. Mn2FeReO6 has spin-active cations at all sites; S = 5/2 Mn2+, S = 5/2 Fe3+ and S =...

Geometrically frustrated lanthanide gallium garnets find practical applications as low temperature magnetocalorics, but the competing interactions in these materials may give...

The compound CeRh2Al10 is a new member of the 1:2:10 stoichiometry series. Previously the three well-studied compounds CeT2Al10 (T=Fe, Ru, Os) were showed to be the first Kondo...

Spin-trimer chain systems are of current interest due to unconventional properties arising from the strong quantum fluctuations and topology, such as the occurrence of the...

Multiferroic CaMn7O12 possesses giant magnetically induced ferroelectricity at relatively high temperatures - key properties for technological application. X-ray and neutron...

Because of the potential applications of multiferroicity, the discovery of a new multiferroic (MF) material is invariably met with great enthusiasm in the condensed matter...

Within the framework of multifunctional materials showing the presence of both magnetic and electrical properties, the lead¿based double perovskites Pb2BB¿O6 are recognized as...

Topological materials are currently under intense investigation, not only due to their promising properties that can be useful for applications in information technology, but...

A systematic study of physical properties on Ce(Cu1-xCox)2Ge2 reveals that the AFM ground state of CeCu2Ge2 can be continuously suppressed by Co doping and NFL type of behavior...

The late first row transition metal monoxides are the canonical antiferromagnets. Their magnetic structures were first determined many decades ago but contemporary studies have...

There is a growing need to reduce dependence on liquid He for cooling applications below 20 K. Magnetocalorics, which exhibit an entropically driven cooling effect in a cycled...

A prototypical frustrated magnet in which structural disorder plays a key role is SrCr9pGa12−9pO19 (SCGO). It is postulated that structurally ordered SCGO hosts a...

The experimental realization of a S=1/2 kagome lattice has been one of the holy grail of frustrated magnetism because when all antiferromagnetic exchanges cannot be satisfied, a...

This proposal requests time to investigate the influence of an applied magnetic field on the oxyselenide Pr2O2Fe2OSe2. A metamagnetic transition involving ordering of Pr3+...

Preliminary bulk measurements show that Ba(TiO)Cu4(PO4)4 is a potentially exciting candidate for studies of low-dimensional magnetism. However, currently relatively little is...

This study is designed to identify relationships between structure and magnetic properties characteristic of coordination polymers (CPs). By determining the ground state 3D...

The 1D ferromagnetic coupling within the chains of Tb(HCO2)3 appears to play a key role in its greater magnetic cooling performance above 4 K, compared to Gd(HCO2)3. Furthermore...
