Discovering a New Form Of Magnetism in 'Magnetic Graphene' Thought LeadersDr. Matthew CoakDepartment of Physics, The University of WarwickCavendish Laboratory, The University of Cambridge AZoNano speaks with Dr. Matthew Coak from the University of Warwick and the University of Cambridge, leader of an international team that has identified a new form of magnetism in so-called magnetic graphene - this could lead to new ways of understanding superconductivity in this unusual type of material. Can you give our readers a summary of your recent research? We have measured the magnetic properties of a layered material under extreme conditions of pressure. We carried out the first high-pressure neutron diffraction study on the TMPS3 family of van-der-Waals materials (TM = a transition-metal), compounds currently under intense research scrutiny worldwide.
