Penetration and reaction of hydroxyl radical into organic films at the air-wa...
The Earth¿s climate is strongly influenced by clouds. The oxidative processing of pollutants in clouds affects droplet size and optical properties, important climatic effects.... -
Test of scintillators for neutron radiography and tomography
The development of neutron radiography and tomography techniques using a portable equipment based on a compact neutron generator and innovative detector system is of great... -
Can surfactants be pushed out of polymer layers by applying compression?
For many applications such as paints, foods and drug formulations, aggregation of colloidal particles is prevented by combining polymer and surfactant adsorption. Key to this... -
Magnetic order in Er2Si2O7
We propose to use neutron diffraction to establish the magnetic structure of D-type of Er2Si2O7 in zero field first with a view of extending the measurements to an applied field... -
Are La3Ni2NbO9 and La3Ni2TaO9 relaxor ferromagnets?
A relaxor ferroelectric exhibits a net polarisation only in an applied electric field due to the co-alignment of polar nanoregions. In La3Ni2SbO9 we found the magnetic... -
Film formation and water uptake in macroRAFT latices studied by contrast vari...
Latex is made from tiny polymer particles in water. Latex films are used in paints and to manufacture adhesives & inks. Latex is good for the environment, as it does not... -
Investigation of charge transfer in P3HT:PCBM under the condition of photoexc...
Alternative energy sources such as solar cells demand is rapidly increasing due to the limited amount of fossil fuels that exist and the rising amount of CO2 in the environment.... -
Can INS measurements access hydrocarbonaceous overlayers on heterogeneous hyd...
This application seeks to discover whether the catalyst handling protocols refined for INS measurements of a variety of heterogeneous catalytic systems can be further exploited... -
Polymer brush profiles using off-specular reflection from the walls of trenches
Nature frequently uses charged, weak-polyelectrolyte brushes at interfaces to control surface function and properties; surface wetting, lubrication, to limit deposition of... -
Understanding the structure of PCBM in the amorphous and liquid state
Fullerene and its derivatives have become materials of great technological interest due to their growing success as electron acceptors in organic photovoltaic cells (OPVs).... -
Studying the hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde over Pt/MCM41 under flow
The proposal aims to use neutron scattering coupled with NMR spectroscopy to study the selective hydrogenation of a fragrance (cinnamaldehyde) to high value products. The study... -
Pressure Effects on Proton Migration 3,5-pyridinedicarboxylic Acid
Hydrogen bonds are ubiquitous in materials across the chemical spectrum, from inorganic to biological. They influence the structure, the functionality, and therefore the... -
Towards reliable residual stress characterization in dissimilar metal welds
The proposed experiment forms a part of a joint study by M. Rahman, an ILL PhD thesis student, and J. Brokx, a CDT thesis student supported by ISIS. In the proposed experiment,... -

The main purpose of the experiment proposed here is to study the effects of thermalisation on Artificial Spin-Ice (ASI) systems formed by nanomagnets with sub-100 nm lateral... -
Magnetic excitations at the critical pseudogap point, p=0.19, in La2-xSrxCuO4
We propose to measure the spin excitation spectrum in cuprate superconductor, La2-xSrxCuO4 (LSCO) at x=0.19. Our aim is to resolve the doping dependence of the 18 meV spin... -
Neutron Diffraction Analysis of the Crystallography of Early Scientific Instr...
Early scientific instruments are typically made of latten, a quaternary copper alloy (Cu, Zn, Sn, Pb) with many trace elements. The crystallographic structure depends on the... -
Ionic Liquid Aggregation in Polymers
Ionic liquid/Polymer mixtures, where the ionic liquid is the minority component are of particular interest for their potential as high temperature plasticisers and conducting... -
The Anderson-Gruneisen parameter and high P/T crystal structure of post-perov...
Recently, our view of the Earth¿s lower mantle changed dramatically. It had been thought that two major phases were present in all the lower mantle: MgSiO3-perovskite (PV) and...
