Compressibility and Tilting of Polyhedra within Sr2NiMoO6 at High Pressure
Ordered double perovskites (also known as elpasolites) have the general formula A2BBO6 where A is generally a rare earth metal or alkaline earth metal and where B and B are... -
Equation of state and phase transitions of the cubic NTE material Cd(CN)2
Despite being the material showing the largest isotropic NTE, Cd(CN)2 is remarkably little studied, particularly compared to isostructural Zn(CN)2 and the canonical NTE material... -
Has residual solvent an impact on the dynamics of PMMA ultra thin films?
Polymeric films thinner than a 100 nm exhibits a variation of the glass transition temperature of a few tens of degrees and can brake up into discrete islands when heated near... -
The magnetic excitation spectrum in Fe1.07Te
We propose to investigate the high energy magnetic spectrum in Fe1.07Te. We have previously investigated the fluctuations in Fe1.14Te in the incommensurate phase and have found... -
A high-temperature neutron powder determination of the phase transition and c...
Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) is a solar cell material of great interest. However the material when fabricated, although of high symmetry, contains substantial defect concentration and a... -
Aggregation behaviour of PEGylated ibuprofen
In the present study the acidic, anti-inflammatory drug, ibuprofen has been PEGylated using an polyoxyethylene chain of 750 molecular weight. The consequence of this PEGylation... -
Phase behaviour and dielectric phenomena in bismuth niobate energy storage ma...
Bismuth niobate (BiNbO4) is widely used in multilayer RF and microwave components such as capacitors and chip layer capacitors. This compound exhibits two main structural forms... -

Thermal expansion and phase transition in magnesium sulfate trihydrate
A recent single-crystal study determined the crystal structure of MgSO4.3D2O, and discovered that a first-order phase transition occurs when the crystal is cooled below 245 K.... -
Magnetic structure of magnetocaloric manganites
Magnetic cooling has recently become the focus of cooling system technology as it boasts important advantages in terms of power consumption and for the environment e.g. not... -
Tilting transition and dimensionality crossover of anion chain order in Ba1-x...
Transition metal oxynitride perovskites are an emerging class of functional materials. However, their oxide/nitride ordering principles were unclear until a recent study of the... -
Hourglass dispersion in overdoped manganites
Overdoped manganites were recently shown to exhibit stripe-like ordering of charges orbitals and magnetic moments. The magnetic excitations in these materials show close... -
Ex situ Study of glass formation from Cu-exchanged Zeolite by INS
In the earlier research, the rheology of collapsing zeolites amorphized by temperature has been studied as well as the vibration that destabilize crystals. With the study of... -
From small compositional changes to large distortions - a new relaxor energy-...
[BiZn2/3NbO3]x-[BaTiO3]1-x for x up to roughly 0.2, known as BZN-BT is a complex made from one of the most studied materials in the world, BaTiO3 (BT), doped with Bismuth Zinc... -
Magnetic excitations in FeCrAs
We propose to carry out inelastic neutron scattering experiments to study magnetic excitation spectrum in FeCrAs. FeCrAs exhibits magnetic ordering around 125 K, which is... -
High energy spin excitations in SrCo2As2
the correlation degree in 122 iron pnictides mainly depends on the electronoccupancy of each orbital and that by doping electrons the correlation decreases monotonically. This... -
Thermoelastic Properties of Thermoelectric PbSe I HRPD
We propose to study the effect of pressure and temperature on the crystal structure and the elastic properties of lead selenide, an important material for conversion of waste... -
Persistent geometrical frustration in the distorted spinel lattice
The corner-shared network of tetrahedra is the most well-known lattice exhibiting geometrical frustation of AFM exchanges under cubic symmetry. Even when the lattice symmetry is... -
