LiFePO4 (LFP) is a commercially applied cathode material for lithium ion batteries. With its Li ion hopping predominantly occurring along one-dimensional channels, LFP is a very...

Geometrically frustrated antiferromagnets RBa(Co/Fe)4O7 (R=rare earth or Y) exhibit a weak ferromagnetic component in the high-temperature spin-liquid phase. Based on a symmetry...

Using the Emu spectrometer at ISIS we have recently studied charge carrier transport in the technologically important molecule 8-hydroxy-quinoline aluminium, by probing the...

In a magnetic Weyl semimetal (WSM) with broken time-reversal symmetry, large intrinsic anomalous Hall effect is expected if the Weyl nodes are close to Fermi energy, which...

We propose longitudinal muon spin depolarization measurements to extract the energy for the T-site Mu acceptor level in mid-range SiGe alloys where a direct determination of the...

It has been suggested that within green dipotase there the magnetism is dominated by quantum flucuations but evidence for this is not definitive. This means that in this...

We have prepared a new family of electron-doped oxypnictides \RFeF\ with the same average Rare Earth radius as that yielding the highest superconducting Tc to date, i.e. the...

One of the technological goals is to create materials that show high permittivity and low dielectric loss, which has been achieved by the co-doping of Nb and In into rutile...

One of the technological goals is to create materials that show high permittivity and low dielectric loss, which has been achieved by the co-doping of Nb and In into rutile...

In the 5d layered perovskite material, Sr2IrO4, spin orbit coupling and strong electron correlations combine to give rise to a spin-orbit coupled Mott insulator, with a...

Our previous work on sulfuric acid tetrahydrate (SAT) identified a monoclinic high-pressure polymorph, which forms at 5.35 kbar when the tetragonal low-pressure phase is warmed...

The overall aims of our project is to advance the performance of NIBs in terms of energy and power density by creating a closed-loop approach for materials design,...

Small-sized metal nanoparticles (NPs) are of long standing interest to both magnetism and heterogeneous catalysis. Recent muSR studies of Au NPs encapsulated in mesoporous...

One of the challenges of developing Silicon-based spintronics technology is developing non-destructive methods for characterizing spin-polarized conduction electrons. Si is...

We propose to obtain the temperature dependence of the diamagnetic spin-precession amplitudes up to 1100 K for the three electrical types of 4H-SiC in order to extract the Mu...

We plan to investigate by means of zero-field muSR the doping dependence of the sublatticemagnetization in La2Cu1-xZnxO4 and in La2Cu1-xMgxO4. In both systems Cu2+ S=1/2 spins...

Single-Molecular Magnets (SMMs) provide access to the mesoscopic world. They possess slow magnetization relaxation due to an energy barrier induced by axial magnetic anisotropy,...

There is much debate about muon stopping sites within materials and in many cases knowing where the muon stops is crucial to understanding the physical properties of different...

NaxC60 and LixC60 are wide theoretically studied systems for hydrogen storage. We recently investigated the hydrogen absorption/desorption of Na10C60 and we found that up to 3.5...

Skyrmions are chiral spin textures that exist in a variety of magnetic materials. These states are topologically non-trivial, which gives them stability expected to be useful...
