Neutron Diffraction Study of a Spin-1/2 Pyrochlore Lu2Mo2O5N2
Ammonolysis of R2Mo2O7 pyrochlores gives R2Mo2O5N2 containing S = ½ Mo5+. They are excellent candidate materials for investigation of quantum spin liquid phenomena and we have... -
Magnetic excitations in mesoporous hematite
We have recently prepared mesoporous forms of various metals oxides. In some cases the imposition of a mesostructure changes other properties of the material significantly. One... -
Magnon decay below the critical field in the S=1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet...
In this continuation proposal, we propose to study the spin excitations of the spin 1/2 square lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnet CAPCC in fields just below its saturation... -
Structure and Three-dimensional Magnetic Properties of One-Dimensional Sulphi...
Magnetoresistance (MR) is defined as the relative change in the compound electrical resistivity upon application of an external magnetic field. It is the fundamental property on... -
Spin dynamics in volborthite at low temperature and high field
Experimental realisations of spin models which exhibit a breakdown of Neel order have been much sought in the last few decades. One of the most theoretically attractive models... -
Exploring magnetic correlations in a new S=1/2 kagome antiferromagnet
The combination of strong magnetic frustration and low spin found in the S=1/2 quantum antiferromagnet is believed to lead to non-classical magnetic behaviour, and in particular... -
Variable temperature study of frustrated magetism in Lu2Mo2O5N2
Geometrically frustrated S= 1/2 magnets are of great interest as they do not show classical long range magnetic order at low temperatures and can adopt exotic quantum spin... -
Spin crossover and low temperature spin dynamics in In2VO5
The one dimensional material In2VO5 contains frustrated zigzag chains of corner sharing V 4+ (S = 1/2) square based pyramids interspersed with sheets of edge sharing InO6... -
MuSR Study of Magnetically Frustrated Lu2Mo2(O,N)7 pyrochlores
The combination of magnetic frustration and low magnetic moment leads to non-classical magnetic behaviour such as spin liquid states. We have prepared polycrystalline samples of... -
Spin orientation in natural nanoscale intergrowths and the origin of giant ex...
The orientation of spins in a natural sample of Ti-bearing hematite (Fe2O3) has been measured previously from 2-300K using neutron powder diffraction. It was shown that spins...
