The magnetization, crystal structure, and thermal expansion of a nearly stoichiometric Sr$_{1.04(3)}$Er$_{2.09(6)}$O$_{4.00(1)}$ single crystal have been studied by PPMS measurements and in-house and high-resolution synchrotron X-ray powder…
Polycrystalline CrTe1-xSex samples were prepared using the conventional solid-state reaction technique and characterized by x-rad diffraction, temperature- and field- dependent magnetization for possible use in magnetocaloric cooling.…
The Ba0.85Ca0.15Zr0.1Ti0.9O3 (BCZT) ceramics were successfully prepared by sol-gel process, and sintered at 1420 degree. The effect of sintering times (2, 4 and 6 h) on structural, microstructural, electric properties, energy storage, and…
We present a comprehensive ellipsometric study of an untwinned, nearly stoichiometric LaMnO_3 crystal in the spectral range 1.2-6.0 eV at temperatures 20 K < T < 300 K. The complex dielectric response along the b and c axes of the Pbnm…
We have been able to synthesize Lu+3 substituted La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 (LCMO) by an auto-combustion method. Synthesis of this compound is not successful by conventional ceramic or other chemical methods. Magnetic and electrical transport…
The effect of 3-dimensional strain state on the magnetocaloric properties of epitaxial La0.8Ca0.2MnO3 (LCMO) thin films grown on two types of substrates, SrTiO3 (001) (STO) and LaAlO3 (001) (LAO) has been studied as a function of film…
We investigate the interplay of the electronic and structural transition in La$_{0.2}$Sr$_{0.8}$MnO$_{3}$. The transport and specific heat measurements exhibit unusual evolutions and signature of a first order phase transition around 265 K.…
In this work, we present electronic and magnetic properties of CaMnO3 (CMO) as obtained from ab initio calculations. We identify the preferable magnetic order by means of density functional theory plus Hubbard U calculations and extract the…
A theoretically supported experimental study of the (1-x)LaFeO3.xLaMnO3 (LFO-LMO) solid solution is being reported for the first time which reveals a phase transformation from the Pbnm and R3-c phase at a chemical composition of x=0.625.…
Spin-phonon coupling, the interaction of spins with surrounding lattice is a key parameter to understand the underlying physics of multiferroics and engineer their magnetization dynamics. Elementary excitations in multiferroic materials are…
We study the structural changes occurring in the isotropic phase of the C$_{12}$=EO$_6$/H$_2$O lyotropic mixture (up to 35% surfactant weight concentration) upon increasing the concentration and temperature, from small individual micelles…
We have investigated the magnetic properties of transition metal oxide superlattices with broken inversion symmetry composed of three different antiferromagnetic insulators, [NdMnO3/SrMnO3/LaMnO3]. In the superlattices studied here, we…
Ageing mechanisms of the U-7\%wtNb alloy have been investigated on samples exposed to temperatures of 150$^{o}$C for up to 5000\,hours. A variety of surface and bulk analytic techniques have been used to investigate microstructural,…
In this work we present a detailed study of the structural and lattice dynamic properties of Y-doped EuMnO3 ceramics (Eu1-xYxMnO3, with 0<x<0.55). A thorough analysis towards the correlation between both structural and Raman modes…
Raman spectroscopy together with density functional calculations were used to study lattice dynamics in a layered honeycomb cobaltite Na$_3$Co$_2$SbO$_6$, which can host a field-induced phase related with the Kitaev physics. We show that…
Lead-free BaTi0.89Sn0.11O3 (BTSn) ceramic was elaborated via a solid-state reaction method and its dielectric, ferroelectric, energy storage, electromechanical as well as electrocaloric properties were investigated at 25 kV/cm. Pure…
We present the results of muon-spin relaxation (muSR) measurements on the hexagonal manganite HoMnO3. Features in the temperature-dependent relaxation rate, lambda, correlate with the magnetic transitions at 76 K, 38 K and 34 K. The highest…
Lattice dynamics in a sigma-Fe60V40 compound, which shows a re-entrant magnetism and orders ferromagnetic ally at ca. 170K, was investigated with the Mossbauer spectroscopy in the temperature interval of 5-300 K. Two relevant spectral…
Materials having strong coupling between different degrees of freedom such as spin, lattice, orbital, and charge are of immense interest due to their potential device applications. Here, we have stabilized the 9R phase of BaMnO3, by Sr (Ti)…
