Configurational and displacive disorder in the cubic NTE material Cd(CN)2
Cubic cadmium(II) cyanide shows the most pronounced isotropic NTE effect known, with behaviour more than twice as extreme as that of better known materials such as ZrW2O8. This... -
QENS Investigation of Solid Ammonia
A recent beautifully resolved INS spectrum of solid ammonia shows distinct differences in phonon states compared to initial calculation. This suggests that strong... -
Effect of Q on the INS spectrum of coordinated small molecules in frameworks:...
We request 3 days on MARI to investigate the effect of Q on the previously determined partial phonon density of states of a zeolite framework with a low concentration of... -

Combined Neutron Resonance Spectroscopy and Deep Inelastic Neutron Scattering...
We request 5 days on VESUVIO in order to examine the sensitivity of 87Sr (n,) resonances and DINS to the metal-insulator and liquid-solid transitions in the Sr-NH3... -
Li(MeNH2)4: Poor Metal, Worse Metal, and Magnet
We request 2 days on GEM to determine the structure of crystalline Li(MeNH2)4: we will be preparing the fully deuterated analogue. Our investigations into the magnetic state of... -
Alkali metal anions in solution Ion pairing and aggregation as a survival s...
Alkali metals are soluble in organic media when a macrocyclic complexing agent is used in order to drive the dissolution process by formation of complexed metal cations and... -
Solvation structures of cyclic compounds: the crown ethers
Crown ethers are cyclic molecules formed by joining ether groups into a ring. These compounds have many interesting solution properties, including their ability to bind strongly... -
Prediction of Local Properties of Metal Hydrides using Neutron Compton Scatte...
We request time on VESUVIO to measure group-I metal hydrides NaH, KH, RbH, and CsH. These metal hydrides will be measured to fit the proton and metal recoil peaks extracted from... -
The structure of metal-ammonia Ogg glasses
In this application we will conduct the first detailed study of the structure of glassy metal-ammonia systems ? so-called Ogg glasses, named after the person who first proposed... -
The structure of water in halloysite nanotubes
Water is important in many scientific and technological areas, yet our understanding of this remarkable liquid remains very incomplete. In may cases, it is the properties of... -
The Storage of Ammonia in Framework Structures: Kinetic Investigation of Ammo...
We request 4 days on VESUVIO to study atomic momentum distributions in copper-exchanged Linde Type A (LTA) and Sodalite (SOD) zeolite frameworks, into which ammonia has been... -
Electron-driven solvent segregation in Li-NH3-MeNH2
We request 4 days Rapid Access on MAPS to finalise the investigations in our recent experiment, RB1710214. This experiment on phase-separated metal-amine liquids proved to be... -

Crown ethers are cyclic molecules formed by joining ether groups into a ring. These compounds have many interesting solution properties, including their ability to bind strongly... -
The Dynamics of Li2S and Li2Se A DINS study
We request 4 days on Vesuvio to study the crystal Li2S and Li2Se. This is supported by EPSRC grant number EP/K002546/1 and will demonstrate further the ability of VESUVIO in... -
Proton and Oxygen Momentum Distributions in HxLiyWO3: Detecting Changes with ...
We request 4 days on VESUVIO to study the proton, lithium and oxygen momentum distributions in a series of HxLiyWO3 bronzes (including the protonated bronze HxWO3). VESUVIO has... -
Study of Vibrational Dynamics in Alkali-Alkalide Systems.
We aim to investigate the vibrational dynamics of frozen solutions of alkalides (K+ Na-) comprising the fully methylated aza-crown hexamethyl hexacyclen (HMHC). This proposal...
