Investigation of the new spin-ladder compound MgCu2O3
Here we propose to investigate the excitation spectrum of the new spin-ladder compound MgCu2O3. Unlike typical spin-ladders this compound has a rung coupling that is much weaker... -
Magnetic Excitation Spectrum of the Frustrated Antiferromagnet SrYb2O4
In SrYb2O4 the magnetic Yb3+ ions form sub-lattices of double chains running parallel to the crystallographic c-axis with frustrated first and second neighbour antiferromagnetic... -
Determination of orbital ordering in ZnV2O4 via the Magnetic Excitation Spectrum
ZnV2O4 possesses coupled spins, lattice and orbital degrees of freedom. A number of models of orbital ordering have been proposed for the tetragonal phase, these are real... -
Magnetic excitation spectrum of the Spin-1, Honeycomb Antiferromagnet BaNi2V2O8
We plan to perform the first investigation of the excitation spectrum of the near ideal honeycomb antiferromagnet with XY anisotropy, BaNi2V2O8. The honeycomb antiferromagnet is... -
Magnetic excitation in triangular latticce antiferromagnet alpha-CaCr2O4
The triangular Heisenberg antiferromagnet is the classic example of the frustrated magnet, here the ground state forms a non-collinear 120° structure. A number of different... -
Magnetic excitations and Orbital configuration in the vanadium spinel MgV2O4
The Vanadium spinels provide ideal systems to study the interactions between spin, lattice and orbital degrees of freedom. The magnetic V3+ ions are antiferromagnetically...
