In this work we present a detailed Raman scattering investigation of zinc oxide and aluminum-doped zinc oxide (AZO) films characterized by a variety of nanoscale structure and morphology and synthesized by pulsed laser deposition (PLD)…
Resonant Raman scattering of degenerate interacting two-channel quantum wire is studied. {\it All} collective excitations of two-channel quantum wire are shown to give rise to peaks in the polarized Raman spectra near resonance. If there…
The existence of CEF states and the magnetism in conducting compounds NdAl2, UPd2Al3 and YbRh2Si2 is discussed. We point out that in metallic compounds localized crystal-field states coexist with conduction electrons. These compounds are…
We report a c-axis-polarized electronic Raman scattering study of Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8+\delta} single crystals. In the normal state, a resonant electronic continuum extends to 1.5 eV and gains significant intensity as the incoming photon…
We study static and dynamic magnetic properties of Co2MnGe (13 nm)/Al2O3 (3 nm)/Co (13 nm) tunnel magnetic junctions (TMJ), deposited on various single crystalline substrates (a-plane sapphire, MgO(100), Si(111)). The results are compared…
$\gamma$-triclinic and $\alpha$-monoclinic polymorphs of CoV$_{2}$O$_{6}$ are two of the few known transition metal ion based materials that display stepped $1/3$ magnetization plateaus at low temperatures. Neutron diffraction [M. Markkula…
We use Raman scattering to study spin, charge, and lattice dynamics in various phases of Ca_{2-x}Sr_{x}RuO_{4}. With increasing substitution of Ca by Sr in the range 0 =< x < 0.2, we observe (1) evidence for an increase of the…
The ground state and Hamiltonian of the honeycomb lattice material BaCo$_{2}$(AsO$_{4}$)$_{2}$ hosting magnetic Co$^{2+}$, have been debated for decades. The recent proposal for anisotropic bond-dependent interactions in such honeycomb…
Here we present a comparative study of the magnetic and crystal chemical properties of two Co2+ containing garnets, NaCa2Co2V3O12 and CaY2Co2Ge3O12. Both phases exhibit the onset of antiferromagnetic order at 8K and 6K respectively, as well…
Raman spectroscopy is used to study magnetic excitations in the quasi one dimensional $S=1/2$ quantum spin systems Cu(Qnx)(Cl$_{1-x}$Br$_x$)$_2$. The low energy spectrum is found to be dominated by a two-magnon continuum as expected from…
We use neutron scattering to study the Pr$^{3+}$ crystalline electric field (CEF) excitations in the filled skutterudite PrOs$_4$As$_{12}$. By comparing the observed levels and their strengths under neutron excitation with the theoretical…
We present a combined experimental and theoretical study on the local magnetism of the Co ions in the spin-chain compound CoV2O6, which crystallizes in two different allotropic phases, alpha- and gamma-CoV2O6. Using x-ray magnetic circular…
Electronic Raman scattering measurements have been performed on $HgBa_{2}Ca_{2}Cu_{3}O_{8+\delta} $ single crystals in the superconducting state. Pure electronic Raman spectra with no phonon structures hindering the analysis of the…
We clarify the role of crystalline electric field (CEF) induced magnetic anisotropy in the ground state and spin-wave spectrum of cubic rare-earth materials with dominating isotropic magnetic exchange interactions. In particular we study…
The combined effect of electron-electron interactions and spin-orbit scattering in metal nanoparticles can be studied by measuring splitting of electron levels in magnetic field ($g$ factors) in tunneling spectroscopy experiments. Using…
Neutron scattering has been used to investigate the evolution of the long- and short-range charge-ordered (CO), ferromagnetic (FM), and antiferromagnetic (AF) correlations in single crystals of Pr1-xCaxMnO3. The existence and population of…
We theoretically investigate magnetic anisotropy in materials with non-critical elements to determine which symmetry conditions and atomic shell filling favor enhanced magnetic anisotropy. We study the magnetocrystalline anisotropies (MCA)…
Magnetoelectric materials have generated wide technological and scientific interest because of the rich phenomena these materials exhibit, including the coexistence of magnetic and ferroelectric orders, magnetodielectric behavior, and…
We have described properties of LiCoO_2 within the Quantum Atomistic Solid State (QUASST) theory taking into account very strong electron correlations, predominantly of the intra-atomic origin, spin-orbit coupling and the detailed local…
By means of neutron scattering we have determined new branches of magnetic excitations in orbitally active CoO (TN=290 K) up to 15 THz and for temperatures from 6 K to 450 K. Data were taken in the (111) direction in six single-crystal…
