The antiferromagnetically ordered state of the monoclinic quasi-one-dimensional S = 1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet CuSb2O6 was studied combining torque magnetometry with a phenomenological approach to magnetic anisotropy. This system is known to have a num ...
The layered cobaltite Sr2CaYCo4O10.5 with formal average cobalt oxidation state close to 3+ has been studied as functions of both temperature and pressure up to 4GPa by neutron powder diffraction (NPD). The crystal structure is shown to have tetragonal sym ...
Conductivity of methylammonium lead triiodide (MAPbI(3)) perovskite was measured on different mesoporous metal oxide scaffolds: TiO2, Al2O3, and ZrO2, as a function of incident light irradiation and temperature. It was found that MAPbI(3) exhibits intrinsi ...
We report on angle-resolved magnetization measurements on NdFeAsO0.65F0.35 ( Nd-1111) single crystals. The field dependence of the critical current density, Jc, is non-monotonic in these crystals at all orientations and temperatures due to the fishtail eff ...
The lack of structural information on hepatitis C virus (HCV) surface proteins has so far hampered the development of effective vaccines. Recently, two crystallographic structures have described the core portion (E2c) of E2 surface glycoprotein, the primar ...
Bloch theorem provides a useful tool to analyze wave propagation in periodic systems. It has been widely used in physics to obtain the energy bands of various translationally-periodic cristals and with the advent of nanosciences like nanotubes, it has been ...
The synthesis and structural and physical properties of iron lanthanide oxypnictide superconductors, L4Fe2As2Te1-xO4 (L = Pr, Sm, Gd), with transition temperature at similar to 25 K are reported. Single crystals have been grown at high pressure using the c ...
