Multi-phonon scattering and anharmonicity in zinc oxide
Understanding the thermal conductivity of zinc oxide is of central importance in assessing its potential for a wide variety of applications in optoelectronics, power electronics... -
Magnetic and structural dynamics in the multiple Coulomb phase CsNiCrF6
In materials with correlated disorder (i.e. not completely random nor completely ordered), new physics and functionalities can occur. Correlated disorder can be treated... -
Tracking changes in the phonon density of states in differently coated LixFeP...
LiFePO4 (LFP) is a commercially used Li ion battery material for high power applications. Particle shape and surface play an important role in the Li diffusion and thus the... -
Quantum critical dynamics in the presence of disorder
Quantum phase transitions are abrupt qualitative changes of a system's groundstate occurring only at exactly zero temperature. Such critical points - although never reachable... -
Understanding the barocaloric effect in Mn3NiN using inelastic neutron scatte...
Materials with large caloric effects offer the opportunity to replace current refrigeration technologies that require the compression of hazardous gases. Whilst magnetocaloric... -
Dirac Nodal Line Magnons in a Stacked Honeycomb Magnet
On the basis of exchange couplings obtained from early inelastic neutron measurements, we conjecture that the stacked honeycomb magnet FeTiO3 contains Dirac nodal lines in the... -
Phonon-liquid electron-crystal behaviour in copper-rich tetrahedrites
Tetrahedrites are minerals which consist largely of earth-abundant and environmentally-friendly elements (copper and sulfur), and are attracting much interest due to their... -
Investigation of Multiple-q states around the Quantum Critical Point of URu2S...
URu2Si2 has been examined intensively over the decades for the rich phase diagram including superconductivity, Hidden Order and multiple magnetic phases appearing around the... -
Resolving the crystal field scheme for Dy3+ in DyNiAl4
The intermetallic series RNiAl4 (R = rare earth) exhibit interesting low temperature magnetic behaviour including a variety of (in)commensurate magnetic phases and metamagnetic... -

The anisotropy of the spin fluctuations in the electron nematic phase of Sr3R...
New electronic phases often emerge in the proximity of a quantum critical point (QCP) - that is the point where the transition temperature of a collective phase transition is... -
Probing the mechanism of thermoelectric enhancement in Kondo insulator YbB12 ...
We propose to study the evolution of the spectral features in the dynamical magnetic response in series Yb_{1-x}Tm_{x}B_{12} (x=0.15, 0.6, 0.8). Tm doping results in non-trivial... -
Quasi-elastic neutron studies of superstructure formation in battery materials
LixCoO2 is used extensively in portable batteries in laptops and mobile phones, but the scarcity of Li means that alternative materials are required. Structurally related... -
Inelastic neutron scattering spectra of hydrogen absorbed in palladium-silver...
Pd-Ag alloys find technological applications in H uptake and purification. Among various peculiar properties, their electric resistivity variation as a function of the H loading... -
Neutron spectroscopy in mononuclear Ni(II) complexes
Mononuclear Ni(II) complexes can be designed to behave as two-level systems and thus play the role of qbits with eventually large coherence time. The objective of this proposal... -
