IN-SITU NEUTRON DIFFRACTION STUDIES OF METAL-HYDRIDE HYDROGEN STORAGE MATERIALS
Hydrogen storage is considered to be one of the principal technological barriers in the transition towards a hydrogen-based economy. In this proposal, we plan to look at the key... -
Characterization of the texture properties of Euro coins as a function of min...
This work intends to see if a diffraction technique is able to distinguish between coins minted in different places. All the physical properties of euro coins were restricted by... -
Structural and magnetic orders in Ga-V oxide spinels
In certain materials, notably with the spinel structure, orbital ordering can result in the formation of a ground state with electrons delocalising between small numbers of... -

Combined in-situ structural and hydrogen desorption/absorption studies of hyd...
The Li?N?H hydrogen storage system is one of the most promising candidates for hydrogen storage in vehicular applications and the addition of halide ions significantly increases... -
Non-equilibrium kinetics in highly interacting polymer mixtures
We seek to investigate the non-equilibrium phenomena of a model polymer mixture by time-solved SANS and temperature jump experiments within (a) one-phase region and (b) one to... -

Zr-based metal-organic frameworks as carbon-free energy carriers: a study of ...
Combined with computational modeling, in situ inelastic neutron scattering (INS) will be employed to reveal the nature of the interactions between stored ammonia and the host... -
Thermoelastic Properties of Thermoelectric PbSe I HRPD
We propose to study the effect of pressure and temperature on the crystal structure and the elastic properties of lead selenide, an important material for conversion of waste... -
In-situ Battery Discharge Studies of Thermal Batteries using Transition Metal...
Thermal batteries find use in applications such as emergency power systems and ejector seats in aircraft. They operate at elevated temperatures of around 400-500 °C, where the... -
Kinetics of the ordering transition in ice Ih; crystal structure and thermal ...
Below 80 K ordinary water ice (ice Ih) undergoes a phase transition in which the randomly oriented molecules in the crystal adopt an ordered orientation. This ordered form of... -
From small compositional changes to large distortions - a new relaxor energy-...
[BiZn2/3NbO3]x-[BaTiO3]1-x for x up to roughly 0.2, known as BZN-BT is a complex made from one of the most studied materials in the world, BaTiO3 (BT), doped with Bismuth Zinc... -
Roles of magnetic anisotropy and inter site exchange interactions in the temp...
NdMnO3 exhibits A-type antiferromagnetism with TN =73 K. At 15 K, Nd sublattice orders with a (0, -Fy, 0) type ferromagnetic arrangement. Mn spin reorientation from (Ax, Fy, 0)... -
Magnetic and Structural Studies on Oxychalcogenides
In this proposal we request 3 days of beam time on HRPD to study the structures (both atomic and magnetic) of a variety of oxychalcogenide phases: La2O2Se2Fe2O, Ce2O2Se2Mn and... -
First experiment with a pulsed field magnet at ISIS or how to break the 15T b...
We propose to use a pulsed magnet system tried and tested at several neutron and synchrotron facilities in conjunction with the new high flux diffractometer WISH to perform the... -

INS STUDY OF BIOCHAR AS SOLID ACID CATALYSTS
Pyrolysis is considered as a sustainable way to generate energy from bio-oil, however, biochar – a solid residue by-product– is inevitably produced in the production line. We... -
A high-temperature neutron powder determination of the phase transition and c...
Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) is a solar cell material of great interest. However the material when fabricated, although of high symmetry, contains substantial defect concentration and a... -
