Diffusive behavior in novel anode material, LixY2Ti2O5S2
This proposal describes a muSR experiment for studying a diffusive nature of Li ions in novel anode material for Li-ion batteries. The target compound, LixY2Ti2O5S2 (LxYTOS,... -
Exploring magnetic fluctuations in a novel iridate pyrochlore: Bi2Ir2O7
Pyrochlore magnets are one of the cornerstones of frustrated magnetism, with two interpenetrating lattices of corner-sharing tetrahedra on which magnetic ions can be placed. By... -
Investigation of magnetic defects in exfoliated and ball-milled graphite
The recent interest in carbon-based materials like graphene stimulated a deeper analysis of the magnetism in graphite defects. In a previous µSR experiment we observed an... -
Probing lithium diffusion in olivine materials LiMPO4 using muSR
We can trace the history of electrochemical cells just over two hundred years back to Luigi Galvani and Alessandro Volta¿s inventions, and perhaps more than a millennium further... -
Observation of hydrogen diffusion in hydrogen storage materials with muSR
This is a continuation proposal describing an "in situ" muSR experiment on hydrogen storage materials. For the two previous beam-time allocated for RB1510262 and RB1520259, we... -
Magnetic Charge Transport in Spin Ice
We have performed further measurements on Dy2Ti2O7 and confirmed the observation of magnetic charge transport. Given the time constraints of our previous experiment not all... -
Frustration, quantum spin ices and quantum diffusion
This proposal aims to characterise the spin dynamics of three Pr-based pyrochlores that may be realisations of quantum spin ice materials. The lower moment and larger wave... -
Magnetic order in the low doping regime in La(2-x)SrxCoO4
While investigating the ordering and magnetic dynamics in La2-xSrxCoO4 we found some intriguing behaviour for samples with small x, which would imply that the phase diagram is... -
Investigating Lead Halide Perovskite Solar cells
Lead Halide perovskite solar cells are the next generation of solar cells, likely to over take silicon and organic solar cells in applications within the next 5-10 years. Lead...
