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"... -
Origin of high-temperature magnetoelectricity in CuO
We propose to measure the spin excitation spectrum of single-crystal CuO throughout the Brillouin zone. The motivation for the experiment is to gain an understanding of the... -
Low Energy Dispersion of a Stripe-Ordered, Hole-Doped Antiferromagnet
Our previous studies of the hole-doped antiferromagnet La1.75Sr0.25CoO4 have shown the distinctive "Hour-Glass" dispersion attributed to magnetic and charge ordered stripes.... -
Formation of Magnetic Charge Stripes in an Insulating Hole-Doped Antiferromagnet
The proposal aims to further investigate the transition from commensurate magnetic order to incommensurate magnetic and charge stripe order in the family of compounds,... -
Excitation spectrum of magnetic stripes in an insulating hole-doped antiferro...
The proposal aims to investigate the formation of magnetic stripes in La2-xSrxCoO4. Recent measurements have revealed an hourglass magnetic spectrum at x=1/3. The question we... -
Electronic state of Co3+ in LaCoO3
We will search for spin-orbit transitions of the Co3+ ions in LaCoO3. The ground state is a non-magnetic singlet, but there continues to be a debate about the nature of the... -
1D Spin-1/2 Chain Dispersion of Magnetoelectric CuO
We propose to measure the high energy magnetic dispersion of CuO. At high energies, CuO exhibits quasi-1D spin-1/2 chain magnetic behaviour. Our previous studies have revealed...
