XMCD study of UCu2P2 at high pressure
The Zintl phase UCu2P2 has record high ferromagnetic ordering temperature TC = 216 K among U-based compounds, which further increases with increasing pressure. Electrical... -
Modulation excitation experiments to explore the promotional effect of CO add...
The transformation of CO2 produced by the chemical industry into methanol is a sustainable carbon recycling process that can both reduce the total emitted CO2, and help fulfil... -
CDW state in U(Pt,Ir)2Si2
The dual nature of 5f electrons in uranium compounds, partially localised, partially itinerant, has long been known to play a pivotal role in their fundamental behaviours.... -
Influence of chromium addition in UO2 nuclear fuel on cesium speciation in ca...
Cr-doped UO2 nuclear fuel (E-ATF) is studied for its improved behaviour in case of accident. Nevertheless, experimental data are necessary to understand the influence of Cr... -

Sodium-ion batteries are a promising, cost-effective alternative to cobalt-based systems, with Prussian Blue (PB) as a standout cathode material. While their electrochemical... -
Pressure dependent phase evolution of closo-borate solid electrolytes
Phase-pure BBC-structured Na4(B10H10)(B12H12), a closo-borate-type electrolyte, has been synthesised for the first time. Its Na-ion conductivity shows complex pressure... -
6D strain microscopy of Ge/SiGe parabolic quantum wells on complex virtual su...
We will use six-dimensional (6D) dark-field X-ray microscopy (DFXM) at the new beamline ID03 to obtain a detailed view of the strain landscape in parabolic Ge/Si1-xGex quantum... -
Subcellular distribution of metals in developing seeds
Manganese (Mn) plays a crucial role in plants in photosynthesis, synthesis of antioxidants, and cell wall compounds. Efficient transport of Mn within and between cells, mediated... -
Anomalous stability of a double perovskite
Cation ordering at A or B sites of the ABO3 perovskite structure gives AA’B2O6 or A2BB’O6 double perovskites (DPvs) and 1:1 cation ordering at both sites can give AA’BB’O6... -
3D datasets for 60 nm Gold Nanoparticles
The image data (in .mrc format) were collected with the Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin transmission soft X-ray microscope (TXM) and used for comparison to predictions of a 3D imaging... -
