In frustrated magnetic systems, the competition amongst interactions can introduce extremely high degeneracy and prevent the system from readily selecting a unique ground state. In such cases, the magnetic order is often exquisitely…
The competition among spin glass (SG), ferromagnetism and Kondo effect has been analysed in a Kondo lattice model where the inter-site coupling $J_{ij}$ between the localized magnetic moments is given by a generalized Mattis model…
Both Zn-doping and $c$-axis magnetic fields have been observed to increase the spin stripe order in La$_{2-x}$Ba$_x$CuO$_4$ with $x$ close to 1/8. For $x=0.095$, the applied magnetic field also causes superconducting layers to decouple,…
We investigate a phenomenological model for the spin glass phase of La_{2-x}Sr_xCuO_4, in which it is assumed that holes doped into the CuO_2 planes localize near their Sr dopant, where they cause a dipolar frustration of the…
The influence of a uniform external magnetic field on the dynamical spin response of cuprate superconductors in the superconducting state is studied based on the kinetic energy driven superconducting mechanism. It is shown that the magnetic…
Structure and magnetic properties of the compounds $Zn_{1-x}Cu_xCr_2O_4$ (ZCCO) are investigated systematically. A structural phase transition from space-group symmetry $Fd3m$ to $I4_1/amd$ is observed in ZCCO. The critical value of the…
Magnetic susceptibility, high-field magnetization and inelastic neutron scattering experiments are used to study the magnetic properties of a new S=1 quasi-1-dimensional antiferromagnet PbNi2V2O8. Inter-chain interactions are shown to be…
We study an odd-parity magnetic multipole order in Ba$_{1-x}$K$_x$Mn$_2$As$_2$ and related materials. Although BaMn$_2$As$_2$ is a seemingly conventional Mott insulator with G-type antiferromagnetic order, we identify the ground state as a…
We present a comprehensive theoretical study of thermodynamic properties of superconductors with a dilute concentration of magnetic impurities, with focus on how the properties of the superconducting host change if the magnetic moments of…
The magnetic properties of a trigonal prism unit of the spin-2 frustrated compound Ca3Co2O6 are studied by means of the density-matrix renormalization group method. A magnetization plateau at $ms/3$ ($ms$ is the saturation magnetization)…
We demonstrate direct evidence for ferromagnetic order at defect structures in highly oriented pyrolytic graphite with magnetic force microscopy at room temperature. Magnetic impurities have been excluded as the origin of the magnetic…
The formation of a spin glass usually requires both structural disorder and frustrated magnetic interactions. Consequently, the origin of spin-glass behaviour in Y$_2$Mo$_2$O$_7$ $-$ in which magnetic Mo$^{4+}$ ions occupy a frustrated…
Frustration in spin system can give rise to unique ordered states and as a consequence several physical phenomena are expected such as multiferroics, high temperature superconductors and anomalous hall effect. Here we report the "new…
Quantum states induced by single-atomic impurities are at the frontier of physics and material science. While such states have been reported in high-temperature superconductors and dilute magnetic semiconductors, they are unexplored in…
We studied the nano-scale structure of the short-range incommensurate magnetic order in La1.5Sr0.5CoO4 by elastic neutron scattering. We find that magnetic diffuse scattering is isotropic in the a-b plane, in contrast with the naive…
We have investigated the variation in the magnetization of highly ordered pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) after neutron irradiation, which introduces defects in the bulk sample and consequently gives rise to a large magnetic signal. We observe…
We study the effect of quantum magnetic impurities on d-wave spin density waves (d-SDW). The impurity spins are aligned coherently according to the spin space anisotropy of the condensate. Both the order parameter and transition temperature…
We have studied the Tb$_2$Sn$_2$O$_7$ frustrated magnet by neutron diffraction under isotropic pressure of 4.6 GPa, combined with uniaxial pressure of 0.3 GPa, in the temperature range 0.06 K$<$T$<$100 K. Magnetic order persists under…
We find evidence for long-range and short-range ($\zeta$ $=$ 70 \AA~at 4 K) incommensurate magnetic order on the quasi-face-centered-cubic (FCC) lattices of the monoclinic double perovskites La$_2$NaRuO$_6$ and La$_2$NaOsO$_6$ respectively.…
The compound Ba3HoRu2O9 magnetically orders at 50 K (TN1) followed by another complex magnetic ordering at 10.2 K (TN2). The 2nd magnetic phase transition was characterized by the co-existence of two competing magnetic ground states…
