Single crystal synthesis, structure, electric polarization and heat capacity measurements on hexagonal InMnO3 show that this small R ion in the RMnO3 series is ferroelectric (space group P63cm). Structural analysis of this system reveals a high degree of order within the MnO5 polyhedra but significant distortions in the R-O bond distributions compared to the previously studied materials. Point-charge estimates of the electric polarization yield an electrical polarization of approximately 7.8 micro C/cm^2, 26% larger than the well-studied YMnO3 system. This system with enhanced room temperature polarization values may serve as a possible replacement for YMnO3 in device application.

InMnO$_3$ is a peculiar member of the hexagonal manganites h-RMnO$_3$ (where R is a rare earth metal element), showing crystalline, electronic and magnetic properties at variance with the other compounds of the family. We have studied high quality sa
mples synthesized at high pressure and temperature by powder neutron diffraction. The position of the Mn ions is found to be close to the threshold $it{x}=1/3$ where superexchange Mn-Mn interactions along the $it{c}$ axis compensate. Magnetic long range order occurs below $T_{rm N}$= 120(2) K with a magnetic unit cell doubled along $it{c}$, whereas short range two dimensional dynamical spin correlations are observed above $T_{rm N}$. We propose that pseudo-dipolar interactions are responsible for the long period magnetic structure.
Two magnetic ordering transitions are found in InMnO3, the paramagnetic to antiferromagnetic transition near ~118 K and a lower possible spin rotation transition near ~42 K. Multiple length scale structural measurements reveal enhanced local distorti
on found to be connected with tilting of the MnO5 polyhedra as temperature is reduced. Strong coupling is observed between the lattice and the spin manifested as changes in the structure near both of the magnetic ordering temperatures (at ~42 K and ~ 118 K). External parameters such as pressure are expected to modify the coupling.
Deformation twinning in pure aluminum has been considered to be a unique property of nanostructured aluminum. A lingering mystery is whether deformation twinning occurs in coarse-grained or single-crystal aluminum, at scales beyond nanotwins. Here, w
e present the first experimental demonstration of macro deformation twins in single-crystal aluminum formed under ultrahigh strain-rate ($sim$10$^6$ s$^{-1}$), large shear strain (200$%$) via dynamic equal channel angular pressing. Deformation twinning is rooted in the rate dependences of dislocation motion and twinning, which are coupled, complementary processes during severe plastic deformation under ultrahigh strain rates.
Ca2Co2O5 in the brownmillerite form was synthesized using a high-pressure optical-image floating zone furnace, and single crystals with dimensions up to 1.4x0.8x0.5 mm3 were obtained. At room temperature, Ca2Co2O5 crystallizes as a fully ordered brow
nmillerite variant in the orthorhombic space group Pcmb (No. 57) with unit cell parameters a=5.28960(10) {AA}, b=14.9240(2) {AA}, and c=10.9547(2) {AA}. With decreasing temperature, it undergoes a re-entrant sequence of first-order structural phase transitions (Pcmb to P2/c11 to P121/m1 to Pcmb) that is unprecedented among brownmillerites, broadening the family of space groups available to these materials and challenging current approaches for sorting the myriad variants of brownmillerite structures. Magnetic susceptibility data indicate antiferromagnetic ordering in Ca2Co2O5 occurs near 240 K, corroborated by neutron powder diffraction. Below 140 K, the specimen exhibits a weak ferromagnetic component directed primarily along the b axis that shows a pronounced thermal and magnetic history dependence.
Spin-wave dispersions in the antiferromagnetic state of single crystal LiFePO$_4$ were determined by inelastic neutron scattering measurements. The dispersion curves measured from the (010) reflection along both {it a}$^ast$ and {it b}$^ast$ reciproc
al-space directions reflect the anisotropic coupling of the layered Fe$^{2+}$ (S = 2) spin-system. The spin-wave dispersion curves were theoretically modeled using linear spin-wave theory by including in the spin-Hamiltonian in-plane nearest- and next-nearest-neighbor interactions ({it J}$_1$ and {it J}$_2$), inter-plane nearest-neighbor interactions ({it J}$_bot$) and a single-ion anisotropy ({it D}). A weak (010) magnetic peak was observed in elastic neutron scattering studies of the same crystal indicating that the ground state of the staggered iron moments is not along (010) direction, as previously reported from polycrystalline samples studies, but slightly rotated away from this axis.
