Further, it demonstrates that the amplitude ratio of magnetic moments at neighboring nickel sites can be accurately determined by RXS in combination with a correlated double cluster model, and controlled experimentally through structural pinning of the oxygen positions in the crystal lattice. The two key outcomes of the thesis are: (a) demonstratingfull control over the charge\/bond and spin order parameters in specifically designed praseodymium nickelate heterostructures and observation of a novel spin density wave phase in absence of the charge\/bond order parameter, which confirms theoretical predictions of a spin density wave phase driven by spatial confinement of the conduction electrons; and (b) assessing the thickness-induced crossover between collinear and non-collinear spin structures in neodymium nickelate slabs, which is correctly predicted by drawing on density functional theory. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45279969247383,"sku":"9783319868806","price":7028.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783319868806.webp?v=1769295033","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/ordering-phenomena-in-rare-earth-nickelate-heterostructures-9783319868806","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
