Unique zero thermal expansion (ZTE) materials are valuable for use in precision instruments, including electronics, aerospace parts, and engines. However, most ZTE materials have a temperature range less than 1000 K under which they do not…

Origin and composition dependence of the anisotropic thermomechanical properties are elucidated for Ba1-xSrxZn2Si2O7 (BZS) solid solutions. The high-temperature phase of BZS shows negative thermal expansion (NTE) along one crystallographic…

The discovery of unusual negative thermal expansion (NTE) provides the opportunity to control the common but much desired property of thermal expansion, which is valuable not only in scientific interests but also in practical applications.…

Magnetism-induced negative thermal expansion (NTE) observed in inverse perovskite antiferromagnets Mn3AN (A=Zn, Ga, etc.) is theoretically studied by a classical spin model with competing bond-length-dependent exchange interactions. We…

Structural and physical properties determined by measurements on large single crystals of the anisotropic ferromagnet MnBi are reported. The findings support the importance of magneto-elastic effects in this material. X-ray diffraction…

The search for materials exhibiting nanoscale spiral order continues to be fuelled by the promise of emergent inductors. Although such spin textures have been reported in many materials, most of them exhibit long periods or are limited to…

The crystal structures, martensitic structural transitions and magnetic properties of MnCo1-xFexSi (0 <= x <= 0.50) alloys were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), x-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and magnetic measurements. In…

Altermagnets are a recently-discovered class of materials with magnetic ordering that have a zero net magnetization and a momentum-dependent spin splitting in their band structure, arising from a collinear spin arrangement with alternating…

The crystal structure and magnetic properties of MnCoxFe1-xSi (x=0-0.5) compounds were investigated. With increasing Fe content, the unit cell changes anisotropically and the magnetic property evolves gradually: Curie temperature decreases…

The search for energy-efficient and environmentally friendly cooling technologies is a key driver for the development of magnetic refrigeration based on the magnetocaloric effect (MCE). This phenomenon arises from the interplay between…

Recently, uniaxial negative thermal expansion (NTE) has been observed in transition-metal zirconides including tetragonal (CuAl2-type) CoZr2 and orthorhombic (Re3B-type) CoZr3. Here, we report the observation of uniaxial NTE in tetragonal…

The phenomenon of negative thermal expansion (NTE) deals with the increase of the lattice parameters and the volume of the unit cell when the material is thermally cooled. The NTE is typically associated with thermal phonons and anomalous…

We present a first principle study of new class of high-$T_c$ half-heusler ferromagnets NiCrZ (Z = Si, P, Ge, As, Te). The structure and magnetic properties are investigated through the calculation of the electronic structure, equilibrium…

We investigated the structural, electronic, and superconducting properties of Co1-xNixZr2, in which c-axis thermal expansion is systematically controlled. At x (smaller than) 0.3, c-axis negative thermal expansion (NTE) was observed, and…

Neutron scattering studies on a single crystal of the highly-correlated electron system, La1-xSrxMnO3 with x~0.3, have been carried out elucidating both the spin and lattice dynamics of this metallic ferromagnet. We report a large measured…

The negative thermal expansion (NTE) compound ZrW2O8 has been well-studied because it remains cubic with a nearly constant, isotropic NTE coefficient over a broad temperature range. However, its elastic constants seem just as strange as its…

We present a novel finite-temperature second-order perturbation method incorporating spin-orbit coupling to investigate the temperature-dependent site-resolved contributions to the magnetocrystalline anisotropy energy (MAE), specifically…

The crystal and magnetic structures of the spinel compounds ZnCr$_2$S$_4$ and ZnCr$_2$Se$_4$ were investigated by high resolution powder synchrotron and neutron diffraction. ZnCr$_2$Se$_4$ exhibits a first order phase transition at $T_N=21$…

The advent of long-range magnetic order in non-centrosymmetric compounds has stimulated interest in the possibility of exotic spin transport phenomena and topologically protected spin textures for applications in next-generation…

The ferrimagnetic insulator Mn3Si2Te6, which features a Curie temperature Tc at 78 K and a delicate yet consequential magnetic frustration, exhibits colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) when the magnetic field is applied along the magnetic hard…
