Understanding how local distortions determine the functional properties of high entropy materials, containing five or more elements at a crystallographic site, is an open challenge. We address this for a compositionally complex spinel oxide…
The entropy stabilized oxide Mg$_{0.2}$Co$_{0.2}$Ni$_{0.2}$Cu$_{0.2}$Zn$_{0.2}$O exhibits antiferromagnetic order and magnetic excitations, as revealed by recent neutron scattering experiments. This observation raises the question of the…
It has been shown that oxide ceramics containing multiple transition and/or rare-earth elements in equimolar ratios have a strong tendency to crystallize in simple single phase structures, stabilized by the high configurational entropy. In…
We report the magnetic properties of mechanically milled Co$_{0.2}$Zn$_{0.8}$Fe$_2$O$_4$ spinel oxide. After 24 hours milling of the bulk sample, the XRD spectra show nanostructure with average particle size $\approx$ 20 nm. The as milled…
Earlier investigation of Co_{0.2}Zn_{0.8}Fe_{1.95}Ho_{0.05}O_{4} spinel has shown the existence of "super-ferromagnetic " clusters containing Fe^{3+} and Ho^{3+} ions along with small size clusters of Fe^{3+} ions (Bhowmik et al, J. Magn.…
muSR experiments on the geometrically frustrated spinel oxide, Li2Mn2O4, show the development of spin correlations over a range of length scales with decreasing temperature. Increased relaxation below 150 K is consistent with the onset of…
Ferrimagnetic spinel materials of formula AB2X4, where A and B are transition metals and X is oxygen or sulphur, hold promise for the realization of multiferroic characteristics. In this work, we report synthesis of spinel CoMn2O4 and…
High-performance thermoelectric oxides could offer a great energy solution for integrated and embedded applications in sensing and electronics industries. Oxides, however, often suffer from low Seebeck coefficient when compared with other…
The cubic Fe2-xMnxO3 is an intriguing material that has recently been investigated for various applications, including lithium-ion battery anodes, catalysts, energy storage media, humidity sensors, and photocatalysts. Despite its wide range…
Sintered samples of a spinel oxide LiFeCr4O8, where Cr3+ and Fe3+ ions have localized moments, were found to show a large magnetic-field-induced volume increase approaching 500 ppm by applying a magnetic field of 9 T. This large volume…
In spinels ACr2O4 (A=Mg, Zn) realisation of the classical pyrochlore Heisenberg antiferromagnet model is complicated by a strong spin-lattice coupling: the extensive degeneracy of the ground state is lifted by a magneto-structural…
The concept of spin-orbital entanglement on superexchange bonds in transition metal oxides is introduced and explained on several examples. It is shown that spin-orbital entanglement in superexchange models destabilizes the long-range (spin…
Large single crystals of the new compound SrMn$_2$V$_2$O$_8$ have been grown by the floating-zone method. This transition-metal based oxide is isostructural to SrNi$_2$V$_2$O$_8$, described by the tetragonal space group $I4_1cd$. Magnetic…
Improved thermomechanical properties have been reported for various high-entropy oxides containing typically five metal cations. This study further investigates a series of duodenary (11 metals + oxygen) high-entropy oxides by mixing…
Recent experiments on Mn doped multiferroic $CoCr_{2}O_{4}$ indicate that a possible distribution of Mn atoms among tetrahedrally and octahedrally coordinated sites in the spinel lattice give rise to different variations in the structural…
Disorder can have a dominating influence on correlated and quantum materials leading to novel behaviors which have no clean limit counterparts. In magnetic systems, spin and exchange disorder can provide access to quantum criticality,…
The low temperature lattice structure and magnetic properties of Co$_{2.75}$Fe$_{0.25}$O$_4$ ferrite have been investigated using experimental results from synchrotron x-ray diffraction (SXRD), dc magnetization, ac susceptibility, neutron…
Using systematic effective field theory, we explore the properties of antiferromagnetic films subjected to magnetic and staggered fields that are either mutually aligned or mutually orthogonal. We provide low-temperature series for the…
Development of new high-entropy oxides having configurational entropy dominating the phase stability has become a hot topic since the discovery of rock salt structure entropy-stabilized (ES)(MgCoNiCuZn)O in 2015. Herein, we report a set of…
Polycrystalline samples of Lu{1-x}Sc{x}MnSi (x= 0, 0.25, 0.50) are studied using powder x-ray diffraction (XRD), heat capacity Cp, magnetization M, magnetic susceptibility chi, and electrical resistivity rho measurements versus temperature…
