Magnetic ordering in the new Multiferroic compounds Sm1-xYxMnO3
In order to understand the emergence of multiferroic behaviour in the RMnO3 type compounds, it is neccessary to understand the relationship between structural parameters such as... -
Structure and magnetic order of the diamond-kagome planar compound Cu2OSO4
Materials with antiferromagnetic interactions between spins on a triangle lattice inherently exhibit large frustration between similar energy ground states giving rise to novel... -
Understanding low temperature Nd ordering and double magnetization reversal i...
We aim to understand magnetization reversal phenomenon, observed in the NdFeO3 perovskite, by deriving the evolution of Nd3+ and Fe3+ moments ordering from neutron diffraction... -
Multiferroic (Ferroelastic/Magnetic) Phase Transitions in KMnF3
KMnF3 perovskite undergoes 3 structural, and two magnetic phase transitions on cooling from 300 K to 2 K. Above 185 K the compound is in the aristotype structure, on cooling... -
Site Dilution and Orbital Effects in Magnetically Frustrated Perovskites Ba2C...
Antiferromagnetic interactions on geometrically frustrated lattices such as the fcc lattice can result in novel magnetic states and structures. Ba2CoMoO6 is an fcc... -
Probing the microscopic origin of polarization in the magnetoelectric R2BaCuO...
We have synthesized the polycrystalline R2BaCuO5 (R = Dy & Ho) and studied its physical properties. Indeed, both the studied compounds exhibit the polarization below rare...
