Detecting an entanglement transition in a quantum magnet
Justification: We'd like to apply for three days Director’s Discretionary time on WISH to continue the experiment on measures of quantum entanglement in a model 1D magnet. This... -
Tuning cycloidal ordering by epitaxial strain in BiFeO3 thin films
Owing to their promising applications, especially in spintronics, multiferroics have been at theforefront of condensed matter research for a number of years. In these materials,... -
Magnetic structure of a novel quantum magnet
Preliminary bulk measurements show that Ba(TiO)Cu4(PO4)4 is a potentially exciting candidate for studies of low-dimensional magnetism. However, currently relatively little is... -
Magnetically Driven Ferroelectric Order in the 2D Antiferromagnet b-NaMnO2.
Incommensurate magnetic phases generated by frustrated magnetic exchange interactions can stabilise novel induced magnetoelectrics. We have recently found that the... -
Direct observation of type-2 cycloidal ordering in BiFeO3 thin films under te...
BiFeO3 (BFO) is the model and most promising multiferroic material as both ferroelectric and magnetic orders coexist at room temperature. In order to exploit his functionalities...
