The aim of the experiment is to monitor the temporal evolution of gamma prime precipitates in three polycrystalline nickel base superalloys using Sans2D. This instrument is...

Catalysts lower energy costs of a wide range of important processes, from the production of oil and plastics to the preparation of drugs and paints, making these products...

This application is concerned with the defect chemistry and stability of Pr2NiO4+d, a highly disordered energy material whose crystal structure is still subject to controversy....

Thermoelectric materials are attracting increasing attention due to their potential for waste heat energy recovery. The challenge in finding better thermoelectric materials lies...

Bismuth oxide based electrolytes have been widely studied due to their high oxide ion conductivity. The d-phase of Bi2O3 shows the highest known oxide-ion conductivity of any...

Mixed-anion compounds such as lanthanum oxyfluorides are increasingly attractive as materials in energy technology applications, such as fuel cells, electrolysers and permeation...

This proposal concerns the metal-organic framework (MOF), cobalt imidazolate. Imidazole (im) is a small, flat organic molecule that forms slightly bent metal-im-metal linkages,...

The sequence of structural phase transitions that occur in distorted ABO3 perovskites as a function of temperature is of intrinsic interest for better understanding of the...

It has always been assumed that CaSnO3 perovskite remains orthorhombic (Pbnm) as a function of temperature up to its melting point, and is rather unremarkable in many ways....

Two days of beamtime on GEM will be used to analyse the structure of the fast lithium-ion conductive phases formed by anion doping the hydrogen storage material LiBH4 with...

Iron-based superconductors (FeSCs) have been an essential research area in condensed matter physics. Spins of iron sites forming a long periodic configuration, called the...

In the current work, we study inorganic solid-state electrolytes for lithium-ion batteries. These materials, unlike the traditional liquid electrolytes, could lead to a...

Triglycine sulfate is one of the few genuinely second-order ferroelectric phase transitions. As for many ferroelectric phase transitions in complex and molecular systems, there...

One day of beamtime on GEM will be used to analyse the structure of fast lithium-ion conducting LiInBr4 above and below the phase transition at 53 °C. We will determine the...

Sodium amide has recently attracted interest as a catalyst for the decomposition of ammonia as a means of producing hydrogen. As such, its properties are of increasing relevance...

The crystal unit cell of mayenite, 12CaO.7Al2O3, consists of a cubic lattice of [Ca24Al28O64]4+ with the remaining 2*O2- contained in cages, which are linked by channels within...

Oxides with tetragonal tungsten bronze (TTB) structures are an important class of ferroelectrics with properties relevant for several technological applications. The...

Methylammonium lead iodide has recently been recognised as an excellent photovoltaic material, with energy conversion efficient of up to 15% with the prospect of gaining higher...

Bismuth niobium oxide (BiNbO4) is widely used in multilayer radio frequency and microwave components such as chip LCs and capacitors. While the low temperature forms of this...

The aim of the experiment is to investigate the temperature evolution of the crystal structure for two transition metal oxides with low lattice thermal conductivities. This will...
