Multi-phonon scattering and anharmonicity in zinc oxide
Understanding the thermal conductivity of zinc oxide is of central importance in assessing its potential for a wide variety of applications in optoelectronics, power electronics... -
Evolution of spin wave excitations of Mn3Sn in different magnetic ordered phases
Mn3Sn has very complex magnetic ordered phase, a clear magnetic phase transition happens at T=~280K accompanied by the vanishing of AHE.For our Mn3Sn crystal grown by flux... -
The microscopic structure of the acetone - chloroform azeotrope
The acetone - chloroform system is the classic textbook example of a negative-pressure azeotrope, i.e. the vapour pressures of the binary mixtures are lower than expected for... -
Probing the structure of polymer stabilised foams
Polyurethane foams (PUFs) are commonly prepared by mixing Pluronic type copolymers and isocyanate reactive monomers in the presence of additives e.g. catalysts, blowing agent... -
Inelastic neutron scattering study of the metallic toroidal system UNi4B
There is considerable interest in understanding the magnetoelectric effect with the aim of developing technological applications. Until recently this has been limited to... -
Origin of the structural relaxation in ice V and the H/D volume isotope effect
Ice V is disordered monoclinic polymorph of water ice, with a complex structural topology. In our work on ice V (recovered to atmospheric pressure at liquid-nitrogen... -
Low-dimensional glasses: Effect of occupational site disorder in the excess o...
The present scientific case concerns a glass-forming system with even less degrees of freedom, namely the occupational disorder of high-temperature phase (I, P21/c) of... -
Crystal field excitations of Co ions in the ideal triangular lattice antiferr...
We propose to measure crystal field transitions of Co ions in Ba3CoSb2O9, proposed to be a unique experimental realization of the S=1/2 antiferromagnet on the triangular...
