Probing the origin of low thermal conductivity in thermoelectric materials
Thermoelectric materials are increasingly attracting attention due to their potential for use in devices for waste heat energy recovery. Bismuth copper oxychalcogenides have... -
High-Energy dynamics and search for a continuum in CaFe2O4
We propose to investigate the high-energy (above 10 meV) excitations using either the MERLIN or MAPS chopper instruments. CaFe2O4 is interesting for several reasons. First, it... -
Spin excitations in RbFe2F6 and CsFe2F6 A possible S=5/2 Kagome lattice?
Geometrically frustrated spin systems are important owing to the fact that the geometry often suppresses conventional mean field ground states in favor of more unconventional... -
Magnetic excitations in a pure Fe3+ pyrochlore lattice (FeF3) ¿ A classic spi...
We propose to study the powder averaged spin fluctuations in a S=5/2 pryochlore - FeF3. Previous studies, corroborated by our own diffraction work on WISH, have measured that... -
Magnetic Excitations in 50% Cu substituted BaFe2-xCuxAs2
We find unusual antiferromagnetic order in Cu heavily overdoped BaFeCuAs2 with the order wave vector at (0.5 0.5 1). This anitiferromagnetic signal cannot come from the parent... -

Magnetic fluctuations in the ferromagnetic Mott insulator Yb2V2O7
We have investigated spin excitations in Lu2V2O7 on MERLIN in this cycle and it would be interesting to investigate how the spin excitations change when one have magnetic ion in... -
Magnetic fluctuations and ordering in two-dimensional and ferromagnetic Cr2Ge...
The proposal requests time to measure the magnetic fluctuations in a 2 dimensional ferromagnet where the dimensionality is set by weak van der Waals forces. We have previously...
