The complexity of interactions between the crystal-field and unusual non-collinear spin arrangement in non-trivial magnets demands novel tools to unravel the mystery underneath. In this work, we study such interaction dynamics of…
Frustration, spin correlations and interplay between competing degrees of freedom are some of the key ingredients that underlie exotic states with fractional excitations in quantum materials. Rare-earth based two dimensional magnetic…
We investigate the magnetic properties of a range of low-dimensional ferromagnets using a combination of first-principles calculations and atomistic spin dynamics simulations. This approach allows us to evaluate the ground state and finite…
The temperature dependence of the response of a magnetic system to an applied field can be understood qualitatively by considering variations in the energy surface characterizing the system and estimated quantitatively with rate theory. In…
We report the normal-state transport and magnetic properties of a pressure-induced superconductor CeTe$_{1.82}$. We found that the applied pressure is required to increase the Kondo temperature scale ($T^*_{\rm K} \sim$ 170 K), associated…
We investigate the physical properties of high-quality single crystals CeGaGe and PrGaGe using magnetization, heat capacity, and magnetotransport measurements. Gallium-indium binary flux was used to grow these single crystals that…
The 4d-electron trimer lattice exhibits either a quantum spin liquid (QSL) or a heavy-fermion strange metal (HFSM) phase, depending on Nb content. In the QSL state, itinerant spinons act as effective heat carriers, enhancing thermal…
Inelastic neutron scattering measurement is performed on a breathing pyrochlore antiferromagnet Ba3Yb2Zn5O11. The observed dispersionless excitations are explained by a crystalline electric field (CEF) Hamiltonian of Kramers ion Yb3+ of…
We report on the thermoelectric power $S(T)$, electrical resistivity and thermal conductivity measurements on the antiferromagnetic CeCoAl$_4$ compound. The N\'eel temperature of CeCoAl$_4$ is $T_N$=13.5K and a metamagnetic-like transition…
A new experimental realization of heat capacity as an entanglement witness (EW) is reported. Entanglement properties of a low dimensional quantum spin system are investigated by heat capacity measurements performed down to very low…
We report quantum oscillation measurements in SrFe2As2 - which is an antiferromagnetic parent of the iron-arsenide family of superconductors - known to become superconducting under doping and the application of pressure. The magnetic field…
We study the temperature and field dependence of the magnetic and transport properties of the non-Fermi-liquid compound Ce(Ru_{1-x}Rh_x)_2Si_2 at x=0.5. For fields $\lesssim $0.1T the experimental results show signatures of the presence of…
We have investigated the electron spin resonance (ESR) on single crystals of BaCu$\_2$Ge$\_2$O$\_7$ at temperatures between 300 and 2 K and in a large frequency band, 9.6 -134 GHz, in order to test the predictions of a recent theory,…
We present a comparative investigation of singlet ground state induced magnetism for singlet, doublet and triplet excited CEF states of non-Kramers f-electrons relevant primarily for Pr- and U- based compounds. This type of magnetic order…
CeNiSn is a Kondo semimetal where a gap opens at low temperatures due to hybridization between 4$f$ and conduction electrons, but a full insulating state fails to develop. Upon the insertion of hydrogen, long range magnetic order is…
We have studied the temperature behavior of the electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra of nitrogen (N) donors in n-type 6H SiC crystals grown by Lely and sublimation sandwich methods (SSM) with donor concentration of 10^17 cm^(-3) at…
The magnetic properties of CeRu$_2$Si$_2$ at microkelvin temperatures (down to 170 $\mu$K) and ultra small magnetic fields ($0.02\sim6.21$ mT) are investigated experimentally for the first time. The simultaneously measured ac susceptibility…
Traditional magnetic sub-Kelvin cooling relies on the nearly free local moments in hydrate paramagnetic salts, whose utility is hampered by the dilute magnetic ions and low thermal conductivity. Here we propose to use instead fractional…
Accurate results are obtained for the low temperature magnetization versus magnetic field of Heisenberg spin rings consisting of an even number N of intrinsic spins s = 1/2, 1, 3/2, 2, 5/2, 3, 7/2 with nearest-neighbor antiferromagnetic…
We investigate magnetoelectric coupling and low-energy magnetic excitations in multiferroic $\alpha$-Cu$_2$V$_2$O$_7$ by detailed thermal expansion, magnetostriction, specific heat and magnetization measurements in magnetic fields up to…
