Phase Transitons and Phonon-Liquid-Electron Crystal Behaviour in Argyrodites
We wish to collect powder neutron diffraction as a function of temperature on four samples of argyrodites, A8GeQ6 (A = Cu, Ag; Q = S, Se), to investigate structural phase... -
Order-disorder transitions in ternary unfilled skutterudites
The aim of this proposal is to study the thermal evolution of the structure of two ternary ordered skutterudites, CoGe1.5Q1.5 (Q = S, Te). At room temperature, ordering of the... -
Magnetic Ordering in a Kagome-like Cobalt Sulphate
We have recently prepared a new cobalt sulphate, Co3(SO4)3(OH)2[enH2], under solvothermal conditions. The structure of this material consists of edge-sharing CoO6 octahedra that... -
A Muon Spin Relaxation Study of CoxTiS2
We are investigating a range of low-dimensional materials for thermoelectric (TE) energy harvesting applications. During the course of studies of the promising TE materials... -

The aim of this proposal, which is part of a PhD project, is to investigate ordering of In and Sn in the solid solution Co3Sn2-xInxS2 (0<=x<=2). All members of this family... -
Liquid-like behaviour of copper in thermoelectric tetrahedrites
Thermoelectric materials offer opportunities for the recovery of waste heat into useful electrical energy. As part of a nine member consortium, which included 3 SMEs and 2 large... -
Structural Investigations of Substituted Bornites
Thermoelectric (TE) materials enable the recovery of useful electrical energy from waste heat. High-efficiency requires a high electrical conductivity to be coupled with a high... -
Low-Temperature Structural Phase Transitions in GeV4S8
The defect thiospinel, GeV4S8 adopts a cubic structure at room temperature (space group F-43m). We have identified a new monoclinic phase of this material at 2K, which may be... -
