The role of Disorder in Phase Transitions in some manganese Perovskites
The aim of this work is to understand the origin of the difference in the behaviour between the two doped manganites Sr0.65Pr0.35MnO3 and Sr0.70Ce0.30MnO3. The hypothesis we... -
Long-range cationic ordering in metal-organic perovskite solid solutions
The structure of the metal guanadinium formates is analogous to perovskite; the Cu compound is of particular interest as a potential multiferroic. We have recently demonstrated... -
Water Binding and Solvent Dynamics in Natural Deep Eutectic Solvents
Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES) are molecular mixtures similar to ionic liquids, having melting points below room temperature. However instead of being composed of a salt, the... -
