A new form of delafossite-type AgCoO2+\delta was prepared using ion exchange from Na0.75CoO2 in molten AgNO3-NH4NO3 at 175 degrees C. Its structure was determined by Rietveld refinement from XRD data; it is hexagonal, space group P63/mmc, a…
The novel spin-chain cobalt oxide Sr5Pb3CoO12 [P-62m, a = 10.1093(2) A and c = 3.562 51(9) A at 295 K] is reported. Polycrystalline sample of the compound was studied by neutron diffraction (at 6 and 295 K) and magnetic susceptibility…
We synthesized Nax(H3O)zCoO2yH2O samples with various Na/H3O ratios but with the constant Co valence of s = +3.40, and measured their magnetic properties to draw phase diagrams of the system. The superconductivity is very sensitive to the…
In order to control the dimensionality and the topology of the arrangement of magnetic Ru ions, NaCl-type lithium ruthenates have been investigated. Three types of lithium ruthenates, Li$_{3}$RuO$_{4}$, Li$_{2}$RuO$_{3}$, and…
A new Cr-based quasi-one-dimensional superconductor Na2Cr3As3 was synthesized by an ion-exchange method in sodium naphthalenide solution. The crystals are thread-like and the structure was analyzed by X-ray diffraction with a…
The magnetic susceptibility, crystal and magnetic structures, and electronic structure of double perovskite Sr2ScOsO6 are reported. Using both neutron and x-ray powder diffraction we find that the crystal structure is monoclinic P21/n from…
Vanadium Sesquioxide (V$_2$O$_3$) is an antiferromagnetic insulator below $T_{\mathrm N}\approx$ 155 K. The magnetic order is not of C- or G-type as one would infer from the bipartite character of the hexagonal basal plane in the…
We report neutron powder diffraction measurements on a series of NaxCoO2 samples with x near 0.75 which were prepared under different synthesis conditions. Two different crystal structures for the samples are observed at room temperature.…
LaAlO$_{3}$ and NdGaO$_{3}$ thin films of different thickness have been grown by pulsed laser deposition on TiO$_2$-terminated SrTiO$_{3}$ single crystals and investigated by soft X-ray photoemission spectroscopy. The surface sensitivity of…
Two magnetic ordering transitions are found in InMnO3, the paramagnetic to antiferromagnetic transition near ~118 K and a lower possible spin rotation transition near ~42 K. Multiple length scale structural measurements reveal enhanced…
CoSe$_2$O$_5$ has a crystal structure consisting of zig-zag chains of edge shared CoO$_6$ octahedra running along the c axis, with the chains separated by Se$_2$O$_5^{2-}$ units. Magnetic susceptibility measurements indicate a transition at…
We report the structural, resistivity, impedance, and dielectric studies of isovalent substituted Na$_{3}$Zr$_{2-x}$Ti$_{x}$Si$_2$PO$_{\rm 12}$ ($x=$ 0.1--0.4) NASICON type solid electrolyte materials. The Rietveld refinement of XRD…
By means of muon spin spectroscopy, we have found that K$_{0.49}$CoO$_2$ crystals undergo successive magnetic transitions from a high-T paramagnetic state to a magnetic ordered state below 60 K and then to a second ordered state below 16 K,…
The crystal structures of the triangular lattice, layered anhydrous alums KCr(SO4)2, RbCr(SO4)2 and KAl(SO4)2 are characterized by X-ray and neutron powder diffraction at temperatures between 1.4 and 773 K. The compounds all crystallize in…
SrTiO$_{3}$ undergoes a cubic-to-tetragonal phase transition at 105K. This antiferrodistortive transition is believed to be in competition with incipient ferroelectricity. Substituting strontium by isovalent calcium induces a ferroelectric…
Interfaces between transition-metal oxides are able to host two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) and exhibit exotic quantum phenomena. Here we report the observation of superconductivity below 230 mK for the heterostructure composed of…
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…
Hexagonal superlattice formed by sodium multi-vacancy cluster ordering in Na$_{0.77}$CoO$_2$ has been proposed based on synchrotron X-ray Laue diffraction study on electrochemically fine-tuned single crystals. The title compound sits…
