The novel magnetic phase diagram of the $Cs_2CuCl_{4-x}Br_x$ mixed system is established by means of single crystal neutron diffraction in the lowest temperature region and zero magnetic field. Two long-range ordered magnetic phases exist…
Cu(pz)$_2$(ClO$_4$)$_2$ (with pz denoting pyrazine C$_4$H$_4$N$_2$) is a two-dimensional spin-1/2 square-lattice antiferromagnet with $T_{\mathrm{N}}$ = 4.24 K. Due to a persisting focus on the low-temperature magnetic properties, its…
We report the structural, magnetic, and magnetocaloric properties of Co$_2$Cr$_{1-x}$Ti$_x$Al ($x=$ 0--0.5) Heusler alloys for spintronic and magnetic refrigerator applications. Room temperature X-ray diffraction and neutron diffraction…
The thermodynamics of layered antiferro- and ferromagnets with a weak interlayer coupling and/or easy-axis anisotropy is investigated. A crossover from an isotropic 2D-like to 3D Heisenberg (or 2D Ising) regime is discussed within the…
The compound CaV2O4 contains V^{+3} cations with spin S = 1 and has an orthorhombic structure at room temperature containing zigzag chains of V atoms running along the c-axis. We have grown single crystals of CaV2O4 and report…
Starting from Cs2CuCl4 and Cs2CuBr4 our project focuses on the growth of the Cs2CuCl4-xBrx mixed crystals from aqueous solution and the investigation of the occurring structural variations. The well known orthorhombic structure (space group…
We report anisotropic thermal expansion of the parent, AEFe2As2 (AE = Ba, Sr, and Ca), compounds. Above the structural/antiferromagnetic phase transition anisotropy of the thermal expansion coefficients is observed, with the coefficient…
The structural properties of the CaFe2As2 have been investigated by x-ray and neutron powder diffraction techniques as a function of temperature. Unambiguous experimental evidence is shown for coexistence of tetragonal and orthorhombic…
We investigated the crystal structure, magnetic behavior, and optical properties of the layered honeycomb compound Na2Cu2TeO6. X-ray and neutron diffraction confirmed a monoclinic structure, with Cu ions arranged in dimerized chains.…
CsCuCl$_3$, chiral and Jahn-Teller distorted at room temperature, takes a more symmetric structure above 423K. Describing this 'simpler' high temperature structure is far from simple and has been the subject of many, sometimes…
The static magnetic and dynamic properties of the compound (NH3)2(CH2)3CoCl4 are investigated in the temperature interval 0.5-50 K. It is shown that at TN =2.05 K this compound undergoes a transition to a magnetically ordered…
We investigate the electronic and magnetic properties of the frustrated triangular-lattice antiferromagnets Cs$_2$CuCl$_4$ and Cs$_2$CuBr$_4$ in the framework of density functional theory. Analysis of the exchange couplings J and J' using…
We use temperature dependent neutron powder diffraction (NPD) to investigate the structural changes and magnetic interactions in double perovskite Sr$_{2-x}$La$_x$CoNbO$_6$ ($x=$ 0.4 and 0.6). A structural phase transition from tetragonal…
We report temperature dependent magnetization and neutron diffraction measurements on the corundum related magnetoelectric antiferromagnet Mn$_{4}$Ta$_{2}$O$_{9}$. Measurements performed on a single crystalline specimen reveal that the…
We have performed detailed studies of the temperature evolution of the electronic structure in Ba(Fe(1-x)Ru(x))2As2 using Angle Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy (ARPES). Surprisingly, we find that the binding energy of both hole and…
Temperature-dependent crystallographic and magnetic studies on stoichiometric single crystals of LiCu2O2 are reported. The magnetic properties are similar to earlier findings demonstrating antiferromagnetic ordering below 25 K. Evidence of…
To study the relationship between the properties of low-dimensional spin systems with weakly coupled Cu-triangles and their crystal structure, single crystals of $Cs_3Cu_3Cl_8OH$ (1) and the new $Cs_3Cu_3Cl_{7.6}Br_{0.4}OH$ (2) were grown.…
Plate-like single crystals of SrFe2As2 as large as 3x3x0.5 mm3 have been grown out of Sn flux. The SrFe2As2 single crystals show a structural phase transition from a high temperature tetragonal phase to a low temperature orthorhombic phase…
The realization of long-range magnetic ordering in two-dimensional (2D) systems can potentially revolutionize next-generation information technology. Here, we report the successful fabrication of crystalline Cr3Te4 monolayers with room…
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…
