Further crystal field excitation data for pyrochlore zirconates.
Nd2Zr2O7 (NZO), synthesized and supplied to us by Tokura and Onose, is a new candidate spin ice while Pr2Zr2O7 (PZO) if anything even more promising is supplied to us by... -
Crystal Field Study of the Rare Earth Pyrochlores Sm2Hf2O7, Sm2Zr2O7 and Dy2T...
Rare earth pyrochlores R2T2O7 have attracted attention because of the wide range of interesting and unusual magnetic behavior they present, in particular the observation of... -
High-resolution neutron diffraction studies of novel calcium niobate-based py...
This proposal is to determine high quality structural models using Rietveld analysis for the pyrochlore phases CaLnTr0.5Nb1.5O7 (Ln = La, Nd, Ho, Yb and Tr = Al, Sc, Cr, Mn, Fe,... -
The origin of ultra-low thermal conductivity in the thermal barrier material ...
Thermal barrier materials are used in modern turbines to enable them to run above the melting temperature of the turbine blades. However, to go to higher temperatures (and...
