Effect of doping and disorder on the skyrmion phase dynamics in Zn-doped Cu2O...
Skyrmions are topologically protected, nano-sized objects which have been shown to exist in the spin textures of a range of magnetic materials. As we have recently demonstrated... -
Superconductivity and magnetism in novel iron-based superconductors
Magnetism and superconductivity compete and coexist in many of the high temperature superconductors, and the newly discovered iron arsenides are no exception. Muon-spin rotation... -
Anti-ferromagnetic ordering in the super-oxygenated (La,Sr)2CuO4+y supercondu...
We have obtained a LSCOO x = 0.06 single crystal where neutron diffraction shows field induced anti-ferromagnetic order with an onset field in the range 0-1T and increasing... -
Spin dynamics of Ce in the Noncentrosymmetric Heavy-Fermion Superconductors C...
In centrosymmetric heavy-fermion (HF) superconductors Cooper pairs have either singlet or triplet symmetry. Recently a handful of non-centrosymmetric Ce-based HF compounds have... -
Dynamics of the quasi-two dimensional XXZ honeycomb antiferromagnet BaNi2V2O8
We propose to perform zero-field muon spin rotation studies of S=1 honeycomb antiferromagnet BaNi2V2O8 which is an ideal physical realization of the quasi-2D magnetic system.... -
Probing superconductivity, static magnetism and light ion diffusion in molecu...
In 2012 we demonstrated that molecular spacer layers could be intercalated in between FeSe layers resulting in a dramatic enhancement of the critical temperature: FeSe is itself... -
Skyrmions in applied electric fields
One of the most studied skyrmion-hosting materials is the magnetoelectric insulator Cu2OSeO3 which raises the exciting prospect of manipulating the skyrmion-phase through the...
