Ultrafast observation of critical nematic fluctuations and giant magnetoelastic coupling in iron pnictides

CCQCN member Prof. I. Perakis in collaboration with a group of researchers, published a significant article in Nature Communications, entitled "Ultrafast observation of critical nematic fluctuations and giant magnetoelastic coupling in iron pnictides".
For this work, the researchers used time-resolved polarimetry to reveal critical nematic fluctuations in unstrained Ba(Fe1−xCox)2As2.

    A new highly efficient mode of thermal conduction

    In agreement with theoretical predictions by QCN researchers, a new highly efficient mode of thermal conduction was discovered and presently investigated, namely heat transport by magnetic excitations in quasi one- dimensional (1D) insulating materials ...
