The employment of Ni–Mo films has recently been shown to yield strictly homogeneous single-layer graphene. In this study, we systematically investigate the different stages of nucleation and growth of graphene over Ni–Mo layers. The studies reveal that the Ni film breaks up and diffuses into the underlying Mo foil, fo…

The temperature evolution of structural effects associated with charge order (CO) and spin order in La1.67Sr0.33NiO4 has been investigated using neutron powder diffraction. We report an anomalous shrinking of the c/a lattice parameter ratio that correlates with T(CO). The sign of this change can be explained by the ch…

Neutron scattering and magnetometry measurements have been used to study phase transitions in LaCoO3 (LCO). For H ≤ 100 Oe, evidence for a ferromagnetic (FM) transition is observed at Tc ≈ 87 K. For 1 kOe ≤ H ≤ 60 kOe, no transition is apparent. For all H, Curie-Weiss analysis shows predominantly antiferromagnetic (AF…
