Magnetic response of uranium dioxide (UO2) has been investigated through temperature and magnetic field dependent dc magnetization measurements. UO2 is a paramagnet at room temperature. The magnetic susceptibility, however, deviates from…

The role of layer disorder is important in establishing the topological phases of MoTe${_2}$. A rich tapestry of atomic ordering influences the structural phase transitions (SPTs), but there is little understanding of the mechanistic…

Thin films of VO$_2$ on different substrates, Al$_2$O$_3$ and SiO$_2$/Si, have been prepared and characterized from room temperature up to 360 K. From the band structure in the rutile metallic phase and in the monoclinic insulating phase…

In this article we present a neutron diffraction in-situ study of the thermal evolution and high-temperature structure of layered cobaltites Y(Ba, Sr)Co2 O5+{\delta}. Neutron thermodiffractograms and magnetic susceptibility measurements are…

We present a comparative, theoretical study of the doping dependence of the critical temperature $T_C$ of the ferromagnetic insulator-metal transition in Gd-doped and O-deficient EuO, respectively. The strong $T_C$ enhancement in…

To study crystals that contain heavy atoms, it is important to consider the relativistic effects, as electrons in orbitals close to the atom's nucleus can reach speeds comparable to that of light in a vacuum. In this study, we utilized the…

We have introduced an improved X-ray phase-retrieval method with unprecedented speed of convergence and precision, and used it to determine with sub-{\AA}ngstrom resolution the complete atomic structure of an ultrathin superconducting…

Evolution of the average and local crystal structure of Ca-doped LaMnO$_{3}$ has been studied across the metal to insulator (MI) and the orthorhombic to rhombohedral (OR) structural phase transitions over a broad temperature range for two…

We have developed x-ray diffraction measurements with high energy-resolution and accuracy to study water structure at three different temperatures (7, 25 and 66 C) under normal pressure. Using a spherically curved Ge crystal an energy…

Water shows anomalous properties that are enhanced upon supercooling. The unusual behavior is observed in both H$_2$O and D$_2$O, however with different temperature dependences for the two isotopes. It is often noted that comparing the…

Very high energy resolution photoemission experiments on high quality samples of optimally doped Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+\delta}$ show new features in the low-energy electronic excitations. A marked change in the binding energy and…

We consider the evolution of an isentropic thermal instability in the atomic zone of a photodissociation region (PDR). In this zone, gas heating and cooling are associated mainly with photoelectric emission from dust grains and…

Pressure and temperature dependence of the negative thermal expansion in Zn(CN)$_2$ is fully investigated using molecular dynamics simulations with a built potential model. The advantage of this study allows us to reproduce all the exotic…

Measurements of dc magnetization ($M$) and electrical resistivity ($\rho$) have been carried out as a function of temperature ($T$) for layered oxide Li$_{\rm x}$CoO$_2$ (0.51$\leq$$x$$\leq$1.0) using single crystal specimens. After slow…

U$_3$Si$_2$ nuclear fuel is corroded in deuterated steam with in situ neutron diffraction. Density functional theory is coupled with rigorous thermodynamic description of the hydride including gas/solid entropy contributions. H absorbs in…

Measurements of thermal excitations of V-O and Y-Ba-Cu-O solid solutions have been performed by a method of inelastic neutron scattering for low-energy transfers range. Features at energy transfer about 3meV and about 5meV for V-O and…

We have used specific heat and neutron diffraction measurements on single crystals of URu$_{2-x}$Fe$_x$Si$_2$ for Fe concentrations $x$ $\leq$ 0.7 to establish that chemical substitution of Ru with Fe acts as "chemical pressure" $P_{ch}$ as…

The nonstoichiometric NaxCoO2 system exhibits extraordinary physical properties that correlate with temperature and Na concentration in its layered lattice without evident long-range structure modification when conventional crystallographic…

We investigate the effect of temperature on the electronic and crystal structures of Ca1-xSrxRuO3 via the evolution of O 1s core level spectra as a function of temperature and composition, x. O 1s spectra in SrRuO3 exhibit a dominant sharp…

High quality single crystals of BaFe$_{12}$O$_{19}$ were grown using the floating zone technique in flowing oxygen pressurized to 100 atm. Single crystal neutron diffraction was used to determine the nuclear and magnetic structure of…
