There is currently tremendous interest in unconventional superconductors where p-wave, d-wave or f-wave angular momentum states exist. The existence of p or f-wave odd symmetry...

The outer membrane (OM) of Gram-Negative bacteria (GNB) is an asymmetric structure which contains complex lipids known as lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) on the outer surface. LPSs...

The lubrication of surfaces by oils is a key aspect of many academic and industrial problems with significant financial implications. 2-D graphene materials can provide...

We intend the measure the neutron reflectivity of a purely magnetic interface generated at a ferromagnetic/antiferromagnet phase boundary within an FeRh epilayer, a material...

Lithium fluoride (LiF) doping of aluminum electrodes is used in organic electronics. As a result of the chemical reaction between LiF and aluminum, the contact resistance is...

Despite being a well-known phenomenon, the mechanism by which platinum gains a magnetic moment by proximity to a ferromagnetic (FM) thin film remains unknown. We aim to...

The half-metallic Heusler alloy Co2FeAl (CFA) is a promising candidate material for high-frequency spintronic devices. As many of these device structures involve bilayers of CFA...

The exchange biasing effect in the thin film IrMn3/Fe depends strongly on the degree of structural ordering of the underling antiferromagnetic IrMn3 pinning layer. In this work...

We plan to investigate the influence of thin Mg insert layers on magnetism at buried interfaces in structures that model the lower electrode/barrier interface in...

Skyrmions are topologically protected, nano-sized objects which have been shown to exist in the spin textures of a range of magnetic materials and are currently under intense...

Interface effects, including proximity induced magnetisation (PIM), play an import role in many spintronic devices employing heavy metal/ferromagnetic structures. Interface...

Softwood hemicellulose (galactoglucomannan, GGM) is one of the major plant polysaccharides found in cell walls after cellulose. It makes up to 25% of the wood in Sweden,...

Please Ignore. This is just for setting up ERA's ready for the Neutron Training Course

Superconductivity and ferromagnetism are usually antagonistic phenomenon; however in nanoscale heterostructures we may juxtapose the two effects to create exotic pairing...

La0.7Ca0.3MnO3 (LCMO) and La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 (LSMO) are two oxide ferromagnetic materials. They will be grown on single crystal SrTiO3 substrate. This allows a highly textured...

Oxidation of atmospheric aerosol can produce cloud condensation nuclei capable of changing the reflectivity and lifetime of clouds. The oxidation of organic film on atmospheric...

Biological membranes do not only occur as planar bilayer structures, but bilayers have also been shown to, depending onthe lipid composition, curve into intriguing 3D...

FeRh with a meta-magnetic (from antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic) phase transition at around 100°C has real potential for a range of applications including data storage media,...

The interface between nickel bismuth layers is widely reported to be superconducting and due to the proximity of ferromagnetic and high spin-orbit-coupling layers, it is...

Topological insulators (TIs) are of inherent interest as they are conducting on the surface whilst insulating on the bulk. We would like to investigate magnetically doped...
