Investigation of magnetic ordering in a new spin liquid candidate
PbCuTe2O6 consists of a 3-dimensional arrangement of spin-1/2 Cu2+ ions coupled by 3 interactions. The 1st neighbor interaction couples Cu2+ into isolated triangles, 2nd nearest... -
Powder Neutron Diffraction study on Sr3NiRuO6
Encouraged by many unconventional magnetic properties in the magnetically frustrated spin-chain compounds of the type A3MM'O6, we have recently synthesized a new member... -
Search for a structural distortion in the AF pyrochlore magnet Gd2Ti2O7
Previous neutron studies of powdered Gd2Ti2O7 (GTO) have shown that despite it relative simplicity as an s-state Heisenberg antiferromagnet, the magnetic structure is a fairly... -
Low Temperature Magnetic Structure of Doped Iridate Sr2Ir0.5Rh0.5O4
There is a significant interest in the electronic and magnetic properties of the layered iridates owing to the variety of potential exotic phases of matter they exhibit. In... -
Mapping the Full Magnetic Dispersion of Multiferroic LuFe2O4
A better understanding of the magnetic excitation spectrum of LuFe2O4 is required to refine current models of the magnetoelectric coupling in this novel "electronic"... -
Investigation of Structural Phase Diagram and Superconductivity Mechanism in ...
We propose elastic neutron powder diffraction experiments on new perovskite antimonates (Ba,K)SbO3. Recently, we confirmed that heavily K doped antimonates become... -
Spinon Confinement and Longitudinal Interchain modes in Yb2Pt2Pb
The f-electron metal Yb2Pt2Pb is best thought of as a one dimensional (1D) quantum spin chain system, despite the fact that the magnetic moments are large and anisotropic with... -
Search for magnetic long-range order in a spin-liquid candidate K2Ni2(SO4)3
We recently synthesised a new compound, K2Ni2(SO4)3, that allows the existence of non-trivial topologicalphases such as skyrmions. Specific heat measurements show the existence... -
Impact of in-situ strain-tuning on the magnetic structure of Ca3Ru2O7
We propose to perform high-resolution neutron diffraction on strained Ca3Ru2O7, a material in which electron correlations, spin-orbit coupling and crystal fields combine to...
