A neutron diffraction study of V1/3NbS2 : determination of the magnetic groun...
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... -
Skyrmion-like structures induced by copper doping in multiferroic CaCuxMn7-xO12
Multiferroic CaMn7O12 possesses giant magnetically induced ferroelectricity at relatively high temperatures - key properties for technological application. X-ray and neutron... -
Investigation of Bose-Einstein condensation of magnons through temperature-fi...
YbAl3C3 exhibits a spin gap formation due to spin dimer ground state below 10 K. In zero-field the ground state is paramagnetic and no sign of long range magnetic ordering down... -
Magneto-orbital coupling in PbMn7-xFexO12
The interplay between orbital order and magnetism in insulating manganites has been extensively studied following the seminal neutron diffraction experiments of Wollan and... -

In recent years there has been a large interest in geometrically frustrated magnetic systems, especially those with spins interacting on two-dimensional triangular lattices... -
Metallic chains on a triangular lattice
Both 1D physics (dimensional frustration) and geometric frustration offer ways of achieving unusual quantum ground states that defy the usual tendency for systems to order at... -
Investigation of the phase diagram of Ba1-xNaxTi2Sb2O (WISH portion)
