Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quantum material is an multi-disciplinary research topic that continues to thrive in recent years. The term Quantum material covers all systems which demonstrate physical phenomena beyond the scope of single-particle, semi-classical/quantum theory. Among many sub-fields of quantum materials, topological systems and strongly correlated systems are two topics which have receive growing attention from the scientific community.We begin with a discussion on a van der Waals magnet VI3 in chapter three. VI3 hosts ferromagnetism on a honeycomb lattice, which was one of the proposed models for topological magnon bands. There have been ample theoretical studies on ferromagnetic honeycomb lattice. However, there has not been any physical realization of such model. In our study, we show that the is a strong anomalous thermal Hall effect in VI3, the underlying mechanism of which is the non-trivial topological nature of the magnon bands.In chapter four, we discuss our transport studies on some magnetic topological metals. The non-zero Berry curvature in the reciprocal space of topological metals can lead to anomalous transverse conductivities (ÎðA, ϳA, ÎłA) in the system. We found large anomalous transverse conductivities in TbMn6Sn6 and verified its intrinsic nature through first-principle calculations. Furthermore, we have found large exchange-bias behavior in TbMn6Sn6, which renders it as a promising system for anomalous Nernst effect based thermoelectric device. We will also discuss the topological Nernst effect observed in Fe3Sn2, which is potentially due to the Skyrmion bubble phase revealed by the Lorentz transmission electron microscopic studies.In chapter five, we discuss our inelastic neutron scattering study on a unique quantum spin chain system in Cu2(OH)3Br. The system hosts alternating ferromagnetic and anti-ferromagnetic spin chains with finite inter-chain couplings. This allows for the coexistence and interactions between magnons and spinons.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neutron scattering is arguably the most powerful technique available for looking inside materials and seeing what the atoms are doing. This textbook provides a comprehensive and up-to-date account of the many different ways neutrons are being used to investigate the behaviour of atoms and molecules in bulk matter. It is written in a pedagogical style, and includes many examples and exercises. Every year, thousands of experiments are performed at neutron scattering facilities around the world, exploring phenomena in physics, chemistry, materials science, as well as in interdisciplinary areas such as biology, materials engineering, and cultural heritage. This book fulfils a need for a modern and pedagogical treatment of the principles behind the various different neutron techniques, in order to provide scientists with the essential formal tools to design their experiments and interpret the results. The book will be of particular interest to researchers using neutrons to study the atomic-scale structure and dynamics in crystalline solids, simple liquids and molecular fluids by diffraction techniques, including small-angle scattering and reflectometry, and by spectroscopic methods, ranging from conventional techniques for inelastic and quasielastic scattering to neutron spin-echo and Compton scattering. A comprehensive treatment of magnetic neutron scattering is given, including the many and diverse applications of polarized neutrons.

Download or read book Neutron and X-ray Scattering Studies of Disorder in Quantum Materials written by Mingde Jiang and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quantum materials generally refer to condensed matter systems whose properties are dictated by strongly interacting quantum mechanical effects. This includes many classes of materials at the forefront of condensed matter research, for example high temperature superconductors, quantum spin liquids, and many others. In addition to hosting their eponymous phases, frequently these materials also exhibit competing ground states, where minute parameter changes lead to qualitatively different phases. The existence of atomic scale disorder is often sufficient to alter the ground state of many such systems. Experimentally, disorder is an inherent component of real (and in particular, bulk) materials, commonly due to imperfections in synthesis and intentional introduction of substitution/dopant atoms. It is therefore important to characterize and model the disorder in such materials to fully understand their physics. The nature and time/length scales of disorder varies significantly between different materials, requiring specifically tailored techniques. This thesis details innovative neutron and x-ray scattering studies on several quantum materials of current interest with distinct types of disorder relevant to high temperature superconductivity and quantum spin liquids.

This book was released on 2021-01-04 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite a long tradition of sophisticated, creative materials synthesis among quantum materials researchers, a sense of broader community has been lacking. In initiating the Fundamentals of Quantum Materials Winter School held annually at the University of Maryland, we wanted to bring together the next generation of growers to learn techniques and pointers directly from senior scientists, and it turns out that we were not alone. The enthusiasm from both students and teachers has been both gratifying and invigorating. Four schools later, we can confidently say that physicists, chemists, and materials scientists, experimentalists and theorists alike, all want to know how to make a good sample. With this in mind, we asked our lecturers to record their most important ideas and share their expertise with a broader audience. This resource is a compilation of fundamental and practical guides on the modern methods of materials synthesis utilized by these experts. We hope that you enjoy reading their essential guidance and state-of-the-art techniques as you explore the Fundamentals of Quantum Materials.

This book was released on 1995-10-12 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The proceedings provide a topical survey of the static and dynamical magnetic properties of condensed matter studied by neutron scattering which has been the key technique in this field for a long time. The static aspects deal with the determination of long-range ordered spin structures and magnetization densities. The dynamic aspects concentrate on the determination of magnetic excitations such as spin waves and crystal-field transitions. The use of polarized-neutron techniques is particularly emphasized. All these topics are thoroughly introduced, methodically discussed, and highlighted with recent experimental results obtained for a vast variety of magnetic materials (e.g., strongly correlated electron systems, multilayers, nanocrystals, molecular complexes, etc.) by acknowledged experts. Other experimental methods (x-ray scattering, muon spin rotation) in the study of magnetism are compared to neutron scattering.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an attempt to convey the colorful facets of condensed matter systems with reduced dimensionality. Some of the specific features predicted for interacting one-dimensional electron systems, such as charge- and spin-density waves, have been observed in many quasi-one-dimensional materials. The two-dimensional world is even richer: besides d-wave superconductivity and the Quantum Hall Effect - perhaps the most spectacular phases explored during the last two decades - many collective charge and spin states have captured the interest of researchers, such as charge stripes or spontaneously generated circulating currents. Recent years have witnessed important progress in material preparation, measurement techniques and theoretical methods. Today larger and better samples, higher flux for neutron beams, advanced light sources, better resolution in electron spectroscopy, new computational algorithms, and the development of field-theoretical approaches allow an in-depth analysis of the complex many-body behaviour of low-dimensional materials. The epoch when simple mean-field arguments were sufficient for describing the gross features observed experimentally is definitely over. The Editors' aim is to thoroughly explain a number of selected topics: the application of dynamical probes, such as neutron scattering, optical absorption and photoemission, as well as transport studies, both electrical and thermal. Some of the more theoretical chapters are directly relevant for experiments, such as optical spectroscopy, transport in one-dimensional models, and the phenomenology of charge inhomogeneities in layered materials, while others discuss more general topics and methods, for example the concept of a Luttinger liquid and bosonization, or duality transformations, both promising tools for treating strongly interacting many-body systems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ultracold Neutrons is a guide to a fascinating topic. It describes how a simple new idea in experimental neutron physics has changed the landscape of what is often called 'fundamental physics.' Ultracold neutrons (UCNs) are neutrons moving at the low speed of a bicycle rider. They were produced for the first time 50 years ago (in 1968) and are distinguished from ordinary neutrons with much higher energies by their ability to be confined in 'neutron bottles' for durations up to several hundred seconds. This is possible since they are reflected back and forth from the container walls many thousands of times with very little loss. As a result of these long observation times, their properties and interactions with the environment can be studied with superb precision.Directed towards a general readership, this book is an excellent introduction to a field of research that is not highly specialized but touches on many aspects of our physical world, classical as well as quantum mechanical.

Download or read book Neutrons, Nuclei and Matter written by James Byrne and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1996-01-01 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neutrons, Nuclei and Matter is an encyclopedic work of reference covering almost every conceivable aspect of neutron physics. This is a major compilation of fundamental properties and interactions, detailing both the neutron's role as a major element in tests of the Standard Model of astro-particle physics and its use in nuclear energy generation and the study of condensed matter systems. * Comprehensible and accessible treatment of all areas of neutron physics * Overview of the current theoretical and experimental status of the whole of neutron physics * Comprehensive reference list and bibliography with over 1500 entries summarising important papers on neutron physics * Comprehensive index, making the book very accessible The author, inventor of the Penning trap method for determining neutron lifetime, has produced a book that will interest anyone who uses the neutron as a research tool or who attempts to investigate its nature either experimentally or theoretically. Jim Byrne has worked in neutron physics and allied areas for over thirty years and is a world authority in the field. Books written on neutron physics traditionally fall into two classes. Either they deal mainly with the interactions of neutrons with nuclei, covering subjects such as slow scattering, Breit-Wigner resonance theory, nuclear fission and energy production, or they devote themselves to the applications of neutron scattering in studies of condensed matter and magnetic systems. In both cases, the neutron is viewed as a tool but is not itself the main topic of interest. Neutrons, Nuclei and Matter is different; in particular it includes a detailed treatment of the strong, weak and electromagnetic properties of neutrons, which in recent years have provided major areas of research for the testing of the predictions of the Standard Model of particle physics. Parallel developments in cosmology and astrophysics are also explored. The book looks at the growth in interest in the wave properties of neutrons following the development of the perfect crystal interferometer, and the way that this instrument has made it possible to demonstrate quantum behaviour very directly. Around a fifth of the material in Neutrons, Nuclei and Matter is about the generation of nuclear energy from fission and fusion sources, which is treated from an analytical rather than a technological viewpoint. The middle section gives an extended discussion of neutron optics, concluding with a review of the applications of elastic and inelastic neutron scattering in materials technology. The final fifth of the volume is devoted entirely to the fundamental role the neutron plays in today's particle physics, stressing its potential for bringing to light new phenomena beyond the Standard Model. Everything has been placed in context within science as a whole, with discussion of the origins of different ideas and considerable attention to historical detail. Neutrons, Nuclei and Matter is a reference work that every physics department and main library should have in its collection.
