Figure 2: The monopole phase factors. Certainly, it is clear that within a local moment picture the lack of magnetic order implies that the spin–spin interactions must be highly frustrated; this is ...

Researchers have synthesized a conducting polymer, polyaniline, exhibiting perfect diamagnetic properties, which eliminate external magnetic fields within the material. These properties are typically ...
