    Displacive-type ferroelectricity from magnetic correlations within spin-chain

    Observation of ferroelectricity among non-d0 systems, which was believed for a long time an unrealistic concept, led to various proposals for the mechanisms to explain the same (i.e. magnetically induced ferroele...

    On the new structural phases in Al65Cu20Cr15 quasicrystalline alloy

    The quasicrystalline (qc) alloy Al65Cu20Cr15, unlike its Ru- and Fe-bearing counterparts like Al65Cu20Ru15 and Al65Cu20Fe15, is a metastable phase. This qc alloy has been shown to possess several structural varia...
