In the metal-organic perovskite copper guanidinium formate, correlated Jahn-Teller distortion gives rise to a 1D magnetic structure made up of Heisenberg antiferromagnetic... -
MuSR detection of optically-injected spin-polarized electrons in Silicon
Silicon is currently the base of all modern electronics and advanced computing. One route to future advanced computing called spintronics exploits the energy saving and quantum... -
Investigation of excitonic physics in polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon molecules
The MuSES project currently ongoing in the HiFi spectrometer gives unique opportunity in the field of photochemistry and photophysics of organic molecules. After two successful... -
Electron Spin Relaxation Measurements on P3BT
Using the muon spectrometer HIFI, the ALC resonance will be measured to determine the electron spin relaxation of the polymer P3BT. This will complete the thiophene series, as... -
Tracking how the spin cycloid in BFO evolves with electric field and temperature
AFM order in BFO was first detected by neutron diffraction and was classified as Type G. However, the spins are not perfectly antiparallel; there is a spatial-modulated spin... -
Soft-templating of hard carbons to produce ordered and disordered Hard carbons.
Carbonized biowaste presents a promising route to producing energy materials in a carbonnegative way, given that the precursor material (i.e. plant material) relies on the... -
Critical exponents in Cu-Guanadinium-Formate
We have recently investigated the magnetism in Cu-Guanadinium-Formate via ZF muSR at ISIS, where we focussed on the high temperautre magnetic fluctuations of the 1D magnetism... -
Formation of hard carbon from carbonized biowaste and in situ neutron study
hard carbon are promising anodes for sodium ion batteries, due to their high capacity and green production from biowaste. However, they require treatment at very high... -
Capture and isolation of radicals by green tea antioxidants
Molecular modelling suggests that the antioxidant molecule EGCG "folds up" around the radical it captures, and therefore should shield the spin density from the environment.... -
