Using low-energy electron diffraction, we show that the room-temperature $(\sqrt{2}\times\sqrt{2})R45^\circ$ reconstruction of Fe$_3$O$_4$(100) reversibly disorders at $\sim$450 $^\circ$C. Short-range order persists above the transition,…

LiFePO$_4$ (LFPO) is an archetypical and well-known cathode material for rechargeable Li-ion batteries. However, its quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) structure along with the Fe ions, LFPO also displays interesting low-temperature magnetic…
We present a comparative study of the magnetic, transport and structural properties of $Nd_{0.5}Ca_{0.5}MnO_{3+\delta}$ [$\delta=$ 0.02(1) and 0.04(1)]. We have found significant differences between the low temperature magnetic orders and…
