Single crystals of the Kitaev spin-liquid candidate $\alpha$-RuCl$_3$ have been studied to determine low-temperature bulk properties, structure and the magnetic ground state. Refinements of x-ray diffraction data show that the low…
We report an unusual temperature (T) dependent electrical resistivity($\rho$) behavior in a class of ternary intermetallic compounds of the type RCuAs$_2$ (R= Rare-earths). For some rare-earths (Sm, Gd, Tb and Dy) with negligible…
Using muon-spin-relaxation measurements we show that the pyrochlore compound Gd2Ti2O7, in its magnetically orderered phase below ~ 1 K, displays persistent spin dynamics down to temperatures as low as 20 mK. The characteristics of the…
Some strongly frustrated magnets such as the "spin-ice" compounds fail to produce any magnetic order at finite temperatures even in the presence of magnetic field. Still they have very unusual low-temperature thermodynamic properties…
We report on the magnetic properties of four isomorphous compounds of a family of quinternary oxalates down to 60 mK. In all these materials, the magnetic FeII ions with a strong magneto-crystalline anisotropy form a distorted kagome…
We present a detailed investigation of the magnetic properties of complex vanadium phosphates M(VO)2(PO4)2 (M = Ca, Sr) by means of magnetization, specific heat, 31P NMR measurements, and band structure calculations. Experimental data…
SrTiO3 plays a central role in oxide electronics. It is the substrate of choice for functional oxide heterostructures based on perovskite-structure thin-film stacks, and its surface or interface with a polar oxide such as LaAlO3 can become…
We report on the results of powder and single crystal neutron diffraction to investigate the magnetic order in YbCo$_2$Si$_2$ below the N\'eel temperature $T_{\rm N} = 1.7~$K in detail. Two different magnetically ordered phases can clearly…
The chapter discusses the structural and magnetic properties of equiatomic ternary RTX compounds, where R represents rare earth, T is transition metal, and X belongs to the p block elements. RTX compounds exhibit a variety of crystal…
We present the results of magnetic measurements on Nd6Co(1.67)Si3, a compound recently reported to crystallize in a hexagonal structure (space group P6_3/m) and to undergo long range magnetic ordering below 84 K. The results reveal that the…
Bi3Mn4O12(NO3), in which the Mn4+ ions carry S=3/2, is the first honeycomb lattice system that shows no long-range magnetic order. Using neutron scattering, we have determined that short-range antiferromagnetic correlations develop at low…
The magnetic behavior of the compound, Gd3Ru4Al12, which has been reported to crystallize in a hexagonal structure about two decades ago, had not been investigated in the past literature despite interesting structural features (that is,…
The discovery of new magnetic ground states in geometrically frustrated lattices remains a central challenge in materials science. Here, we report the synthesis, structural characterization, and frustrated magnetic properties of…
We have studied the magnetic properties of Na$_2$Co$_2$TeO$_6$, which features a honeycomb lattice of magnetic Co$^{2+}$ ions, through macroscopic characterization and neutron diffraction on a powder sample. We have shown that this material…
The hexagonal polymorph of Ba$_3$Tb(BO$_3$)$_3$ contains Tb$^{3+}$ ions on a quasi-2D triangular lattice, resulting in geometric magnetic frustration. Powder samples of Ba$_3$Tb(BO$_3$)$_3$ have been investigated using specific heat, powder…
Magnetic ordering in the geometrically frustrated magnetic oxide spinels MgCr_2O_4 and ZnCr_2O_4 is accompanied by a structural change that helps relieve the frustration. Analysis of high-resolution synchrotron X-ray scattering reveals that…
This paper presents structural, detailed magnetic, and exchange bias studies in polycrystalline Ba$_{2}$ScRuO$_{6}$ synthesized at ambient pressure. In contrast to its strontium analogue, this material crystallizes in a 6L hexagonal…
We have identified TbOF as a unique frustrated and mixed-anion lattice, hosting unconventional magnetism. By means of magnetization, specific heat and neutron diffraction measurements down to 90 mK, as well as DFT calculations, we present a…
We report magnetization, heat capacity, 7Li - nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and muSR (muon spin roration) measurements on the honeycomb 4d5 spin liquid candidate Li2RhO3. The magnetization in small magnetic fields provides evidence of…
Magnetic topological semimetals LnSbTe (Ln = Lanthanide) have attracted intensive attention because of the presence of interplay between magnetism, topological, and electron correlations depending on the choices of magnetic Ln elements.…
