Structure and cation ordering in A2Sn3Q7-type phases (A=In, Cr; Q= S, Se)
We wish to exploit the contrast afforded by neutrons to study the ordering of In and Sn cations in indium tin chalcogenides. Cation ordering has been inferred from spectroscopic... -
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... -
Misfit and Misfit Release in Co-Co3(Al,W) Superalloys
The effect of alloying additions (Ni, Fe, Cr, Ta, Mo, V, Ti, Si) on the misfit of developmental Co-Al-W alloys will be examined using Polaris. The Co3(Al,W) precipitate phase... -
