A single crystal of Sn(1.59)Nb(1.84)O(6.35) was grown at 1273 K from a mixture of sodium niobate and tin(II) chloride. The structure is of pyrochlore type A(2)B(2)O(7). The tin is partially oxidized t...
A class of materials known as "ferroelectric metals" was discussed theoretically by Anderson and Blount in 1965 [Phys. Rev. Lett. 14, 217 (1965)]], but to date no examples of this class of materials h...
We study the semiclassical limit of the Sp(N) generalization of the pyrochlore lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnet by expanding about the N --> infinity saddlepoint in powers of a generalized inverse s...
We study the low temperature dynamics of the classical Heisenberg antiferromagnet with nearest neighbor interaction on the frustrated pyrochlore lattice. We present extensive results for the wave vect...
We have measured the polarized Raman scattering spectra of Cd2Re2O7, the first superconducting pyrochlore, as a function of temperature. For temperatures below the cubic-to-tetragonal structural phase...
The ground-state properties of the spin-1 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model on the corner-sharing tetrahedra, the pyrochlore lattice, are investigated. By breaking up each spin into a pair of 1/2-spi...
