From 59Co and 23Na NMR, we demonstrate the impact of the Na+ vacancy ordering on the cobalt electronic states in Na0.75CoO2: at long time scales, there is neither a disproportionation into 75 % Co3+ and 25 % Co4+ states, nor a mixed-valence…

The effect of local structure on the magnetic and transport properties of the layered perovskites has been investigated. The samples PrBaCo$_{2}$O$_{5+\delta}$, ($\delta$ = 0.80 and 0.67) though crystallize in the same 112 type tetragonal…

A defect model involving cation and anion vacancies and anti-site defects is proposed that accounts for the non-stoichiometry of multi-valent $A$-site Na$_{0.5}$Bi$_{0.5}$TiO$_3$ based perovskite oxides with $ABO_3$ composition. A series of…

The La-Co co-substituted magnetoplumbite-type (M-type) ferrites $A$Fe$_{12}$O$_{19}$ ($A$ = Ca, Sr and Ba, ion sizes Ca$^{2+}$ $<$ Sr$^{2+}$ $<$ Ba$^{2+}$) with Co compositions around 0.2 have been subjected to $^{59}$Co-NMR. The results…

The copper substituted lead oxyapatite, Pb$_{10-x}$Cu$_{x}$(PO$_{3.92(4)}$)$_{6}$O$_{0.96(3)}$ (x=0.94(6)) was studied using neutron and x-ray diffraction and neutron spectroscopy techniques. The crystal structure of the main phase of our…

Rare earth based cobalt-ruthenium double perovskites A$_2$CoRuO$_6$ (A = La, Pr, Nd and Sm) were synthesized and investigated for their structural and magnetic properties. All the compounds crystallize in the monoclinic $P2_1/n$ structure…

We present first principles LDA+U calculations of electronic structure and magnetic state for LaCoO3 and HoCoO3. Low Spin to Intermediate Spin state transition was found in our calculations using experimental crystallographic data for both…

XAFS studies of Ni-doped Ba$_{1-x}$Sr$_x$TiO$_3$ solid solution reveal that the Ni oxidation state changes from 4 in SrTiO$_3$ to 2.5 in BaTiO$_3$ when varying $x$. This change is accompanied by a noticeable change in the interatomic Ni-O…

A dense phase of a post-layered perovskite Sr3Co2O6 was created by a high-pressure and high-temperature synthetic route and quenched to ambient conditions. The structure of Sr3Co2O6 was determined by synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction.…

A large variety of perovskite oxide superconductors are known, including some of the most prominent high-temperature and unconventional superconductors. However, superconductivity among the oxidation state inverted material class, the…

We have performed non-resonant x-ray diffraction, resonant soft and hard x-ray magnetic diffraction, soft x-ray absorption and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism measurements to clarify the electronic and magnetic states of the Co3+ ions in…

The effects of local B-cation (Ti, Zr) distribution and octahedral tilting on the pre-edge structure in the Ti X-ray absorption K-spectra of the CaTi1-xZrxO3 perovskite solid solutions were investigated. Experimental spectra for the…

Secondary batteries are important energy storage devices for a mobile equipment, an electric car, and a large-scale energy storage. Nevertheless, variation of the local electronic state of the battery materials in the charge (or…

Fe5-xGeTe2 is a van der Waals material with one of the highest reported bulk Curie temperatures, $T_C$ ~ 310K. In this study, theoretical calculations and experiments are utilized to demonstrate that the magnetic ground state is highly…

We report the synthesis and superconducting properties of a metastable form of the known superconductor NaxCoO2*yH2O (x ~ 1/3, y ~ 4x). Instead of using the conventional bromine-acetonitrile mixture for sodium deintercalation, we use an…

The electric, magnetic, and thermal properties of three perovskite cobaltites with the same 30% hole doping and ferromagnetic ground state were investigated down to very low temperatures. With decreasing size of large cations, the…

The possibility to segregate cobalt and iron in a single perovskite, at a nanoscale in the form of layers has been investigated, using sol gel technic synthesis. Quite remarkably, it is shown that such a nanoscale ordering, which can only…

Exploring the uncharacterized magnetic phases of Co$^{2+}$ chain compounds is critical for finding new low-dimensional magnets hosting quantized excitations. We map the unexplored magnetic phases of the Co$^{2+}$ chain compound…
