The magneto-optical technique has been employed to observe spontaneous ferromagnetic domain structures in La0.78Ca0.22MnO3 single crystals. The magnetic domain topology was found to be correlated with the intrinsic twin structure of the…

We report on the crystal structure of the quantum magnet (CuCl)LaNb2O7 that was controversially described with respect to its structural organization and magnetic behavior. Using high-resolution synchrotron powder x-ray diffraction,…

As a recently-identified Mott system, PbCrO3 remains largely unexplored, especially for its band structure, leading to many contentious issues on its structural, electronic, and magnetic properties. Here we present a comprehensive study of…

Group theoretical aspects of the three temperature-dependent and temperature-reversible experimentally observed phase transitions in the KNbO3 crystal (cubic-tetragonal, tetragonal-orthorhombic, orthorhombic-rhombohedral) in the framework…

The purpose of the present work is to report studies on structural phase transition for PMN-xPT single crystal, with melt PbTiO3 composition around the MPB (x = 0.35 mol %), using infrared spectroscopy technique. The study was centered on…

The structural, magnetic, and thermodynamic properties of a new plutonium based compound, Pu2Pt3Si5, are reported. Single crystals produced by a Sn-flux technique have been analyzed showing a ferromagnetic behavior at 58 K. Pu2Pt3Si5…

The crystal and magnetic structure of (La0.70Ca0.30)(CryMn1-y)O3 for y = 0.70, 0.50 and 0.15 has been investigated using neutron powder diffraction. The three samples crystallize in the Pnma space group at both 290 K and 5 K and exhibit…

We report investigation of structural phase transitions in technologically important material sodium niobate as a function of temperature on heating over 300-1075 K. Our high resolution powder neutron diffraction data show variety of…

High temperature crystal structure of UPt$_2$Si$_2$ determined using single-crystal neutron diffraction at 400 K is reported. It is found that the crystal structure remains of the primitive tetragonal CaBe$_2$Ge$_2$ type with the space…

The structural properties of BiMn$O_3$ were determined from neutron powder diffraction data as a function of temperature and magnetic field. The structure at all temperatures was found to be centrosymmetric with space group $C2/c$, which is…

Highly-strained BiFeO3 exhibits a "tetragonal-like, monoclinic" crystal structure found only in epitaxial films (with an out-of-plane lattice parameter exceeding the in-plane value by >20%). Previous work has shown that this phase is…

In this study, we report the synthesis and characterization of a novel tetragonal polymorph of Tb-doped Pb2P2O7. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction confirms the stabilization of the P41 and P43 enantiomorphs at room temperature due to the…

The application of powder diffraction methods in two-dimensional crystallography is regarded as intractable because of the uncertainties associated with overlapping reflections. Here, we report an approach that resolves these ambiguities…

The crystal structures of the Sr1-xCaxRuO3 perovskites are investigated using both long range and local structural probes. High resolution synchrotron powder X-ray diffraction characterization at ambient temperature shows that the materials…

Hexammine magnesium borohydride, Mg(NH$_3$)$_6$(BH$_4$)$_2$, consists of adducted NH$_3$ molecules locked in a matrix of Mg cations and borohydride anions. It is a candidate material for hydrogen storage, with 16.8wt\% hydrogen stored in…
