Low-temperature structural phase transitions in CuSeO4·5D2O and CuBeF4·5D2O
The isostructural family of compounds that includes the familiar copper sulfate pentahydrate and the two less familiar title materials, has for decades been a model for studying... -
In-situ Neutron Diffraction Studies of the Lithium Ion Battery Cathodes Li2MS...
This application focuses on the study of two important lithium ion battery materials. We intend to use our newly developed cell design which allows for the cycling of battery... -
Magnetic excitation spectrum of a potential spin liquid candidate
PbCuTe2O6 consists of a 3-dimensional arrangement of spin-1/2 Cu ions. There are 3 potentially strong interactions, the first neighbor interaction couples the magnetic ions into... -
A total scattering study of the phase transitions in the hybrid organic-inorg...
Hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites are interesting candidates for a range of applications, from solar cells to light emitting diodes and lasers. For the latter applications... -
The Novel Quenching and Partitioning (Q&P) Heat-treatment Process
Q&P heat-treatments typically consist of an ¿Austenitisation - Interrupted Quench ¿ Partition ¿ Final Quench¿ heat treatment process. During the partitioning stage carbon... -
Pressure response of CoMnSi: an anisotropic metamagnet with giant magnetoelas...
We wish to use elastic (this experiment) and inelastic neutron scattering (experiments on MARI and MERLIN submitted in this round) as an approach to quantify the change in... -
Hydrogen production from ammonia using lithium imide: an isotope study
We have recently discovered that light metal amides and imides are excellent cattalysts for the decomposition of ammonia. We request 3 days on POLARIS to perform in situ neutron... -
Neutron Scattering, Agricultural Wastes, Concrete & Water mobility: What can ...
In recent years, the research related to agricultural wastes aiming to evaluate their potential for recycling as well as the elimination of the landfills increased dramatically.... -
What processes dominate porosity and structure evolution in Amorphous Solid W...
This experiment will measure the microstructure of Amorphous Solid Water (ASW), a porous material that can be formed by vapour-depositing water onto a cold plate, an excellent... -

Modelling Intermolecular Interactions and Thermodynamic Properties of Naphtha...
Equations of state (EoSs) show how the thermodynamic variables of temperature, pressure and volume are inter-related. The ideal gas law, PV = nRT, is an example of an EoS which... -
Cs mixed cation lead perovskites
Organic-inorganic hybrid halide perovskites combine the optoelectronic properties commonly associated with high performance semiconductors with materials synthesis or processing... -
Demystifying the Haupt effect: the need for neutron scattering
In 1972, Haupt observed a giant enhancement of proton polarisation in NMR experiments on crystalline g-picoline. Key to this discovery was the implementation of quick... -
High pressure structural studies of halogen bonded systems
We propose a high-pressure neutron powder diffraction study of three halogen-bonded complexes, namely trimethylamine:ICl, 1,4-dioxane:(IBr)2 and pyridine:IBr. These are some of... -
Isotopic Characterisation of Pore Surface Chemistry in Monolithic MCM-41 Subs...
Porous materials impregnated with metal nanoparticles are extremely useful in catalysis, an industry that had a global turnover in 2010 of over three trillion dollars.... -
Towards the Calibration of Chemical Pressure
The application of hydrostatic pressure allows the precise tuning of atomic separations, which control electronic structure and virtually all the interatomic interactions that... -
Magnetic Excitations in Chromium
Chromium is unique amongst the d-band elemental metals in that it has a spin density wave ground state. The spin density wave is caused by Fermi surface nesting between electron... -
Investigation into the Effect of Heating Rates on Recrystallisation Mechanism...
Electrical steels (ES) used in motors and transformers. The major challenge is to optimise themagnetic property of ES to reduce energy waste during service. The crystallographic... -
Using QLCR to Study Stopping Sites in Molecular Solids
Muon nuclear quadrupolar level crossing resonance is not a well-known technique, however it is extremely powerful. There is a large interest in probing the muon stopping site... -
Validating a new theoretical method for predicting the HFC of small molecular...
ALC is the best technique to characterize muoniated radicals, that are produced by muonium bonding to unsaturated bonds in molecules. Good agreement between data from ALC and...
