The impact of anion ordering on octahedra distortion and phase transitions in SrTaO2N and BaTaO2N
Wang, Chun-Hai; Kennedy, Brendan J; Menezes de Oliveira, Andre; Polt, Julia; Knight, Kevin SPublished 2017-01-01In this work, we synthesized BaTaO2N and SrTaO2N using a two-step high temperature solid state reaction method and analysed the structural distortions, relative to the ideal cubic perovskite structure, according to group ...Open AccessArticle -
Low temperature structure and the ferroelectric phase transitions in the CdTiO3 perovskite
Kennedy, Brendan J; Zhou, Qingdi; Zhao, Shipeng; Jia, Fanhao; Ren, Wei; Knight, Kevin SPublished 2017-01-01The paraelectric-ferroelectric transition in CdTiO3 has been monitored using high resolution neutron diffraction data. This necessitated preparing a sample enriched in 114Cd. A subtle, but significant, anisotropy in the ...Open AccessArticle -
Tuning the Giant Magnetoelastic Transition in Ba3BiIr2O9 and Ba3BiRu2O9
Huang, Zixin; Avdeev, Maxim; Kennedy, Brendan J; Knight, Kevin S; Zhou, Qingdi; Ling, Chris DPublished 2014We have experimentally investigated the effects of pressure on the magnetoelastic transitions associated with the opening of spin-gaps in Ba3BiIr2O9 and Ba3BiRu2O9. For both compounds, reducing the unit cell volume by ...Open AccessArticle
