A series of f-block chromates, CsM(CrO$_4$)$_2$ (M = La, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu; Am), were prepared revealing notable differences between the AmIII derivatives and their lanthanide analogs. While all compounds form similar layered structures, the…

The structural environment of substitutional Cr3+ ion in MgAl2O4 spinel has been investigated by Cr K-edge Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (EXAFS) and X-ray Absorption Near Edge Structure (XANES) spectroscopies. First-principles…

X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy technique is used to better understand the charging and decharging processes of the persistent luminescence in the Cr$^{3+}$ doped AB$_2$O$_4$ spinels (A = Zn, Mg and B = Ga and Al)…

The local environment of Gd3+ (4f7 S=7/2) ions in single crystals of Ca1-xGdxB6 (0.0001 < x < 0.01) is studied by means of Electron Spin Resonance (ESR). The spectra for low concentration samples (x < 0.001) show a split spectrum due to…

The research on layered van der Waals (vdW) magnets is rapidly progressing owing to exciting fundamental science and potential applications. In bulk crystal form, CrCl3 is a vdW antiferromagnet with in-plane ferromagnetic ordering below 17…

We present a first-principles study of the contrasting easy magnetization axes(EMAs) in the layered chromium trihalides CrCl3 and CrBr3, which exhibit in-plane and out-of-plane EMAs, respectively. Using density-functional theory…

The angular dependence (x-ray linear dichroism) of the Cr K pre-edge in MgAl2O4:Cr3+ spinel is measured by means of x-ray absorption near edge structure spectroscopy (XANES) and compared to calculations based on density functional theory…

This work reports the results of EPR and NMR study of the Ce3+ incorporation in LaAlO3 single crystals grown by the micro-pulling-down method in the range of the Ce concentrations from x=0.1 at.% up to 100 at.%. From EPR measurements, Ce3+…

Interfacing rare-earth doped crystals with superconducting circuit architectures provides an attractive platform for quantum memory and transducer devices. Here we present the detailed characterization of such a hybrid system: a locally…

Photoluminescence, thermally stimulated luminescence (TSL) and EPR characteristics of the Ce3+ doped single crystals of multicomponent Y1Lu2GaxAl5-xO12 and Lu3GaxAl5-xO12 garnets with different Ga contents (x = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5) excited in…

An effect of alloying of the monoclinic beta- Ga2O3 with Al2O3 and In2O3 on the photoluminescent, thermoluminescent and persistent luminescent properties of Cr3+ ions has been comprehensively investigated. For this purpose, various series…

High-resolution ac susceptibility and thermal conductivity measurement on Cu2Te2O5X2(X=Br,Cl) single crystals are reported. For Br-sample, sample dependence prevents to distinguish between possibilities of magnetically ordered and…

Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra of Fe3+ and Mn2+ ions have been studied in the nominally pure and 0.05% Li-doped single crystals of CdWO4. The zero-field splitting parameters are determined with a high precision for both of the…

Using electron spin resonance, lattice position and dynamic properties of Mn2+ ions were studied in 0.5 and 2 % manganese doped SrTiO3 ceramics prepared by conventional mixed oxide method. The measurements showed that Mn2+ ions substitute…

Fast-cooling after sintering or annealing of BiFeO3-BaTiO3 mixed oxide ceramics yields core-shell structures that give excellent functional properties, but their precise phase assemblage and nanostructure remains an open question. By…

Structural and electronic properties of the alpha- and gamma-phases of cerium sesquisulfide, Ce2S3, are examined by first-principles calculations using the GGA+U extension of density functional theory. The strongly correlated f-electrons of…

The crystal structure of hexagonal-Sr0.6Ba0.4MnO3 allows various competing superexchange interactions, leading to intriguing magnetic properties. Local structural changes modify overlapping between Mn and oxygen ions with temperature.…

The spinel/perovskite heterointerface $\gamma$-Al$_2$O$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ hosts a two-dimensional electron system (2DES) with electron mobilities exceeding those in its all-perovskite counterpart LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ by more than an order of…

We study from first principles two lanthanum silicate nitride compounds, LaSi$_{3}$N$_{5}$ and La$_{3}$Si$_{6}$N$_{11}$, pristine as well as doped with Ce$^{3+}$ ion, in view of explaining their different emission color, and characterising…

X- and Q-band electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) study is reported on the SrTiO3 single crystals doped with 0.5-at.% MnO. EPR spectra originating from the S = 2 ground state of Mn3+ ions are shown to belong to the three distinct types of…
