Quenched salt hydrates new ways of probing water clusters.
Very rapid quenching of liquids to form a glass, from which crystalline phases are subsequently obtained by devitrification, is a powerful technique for obtaining novel... -
Hydrogen from ammonia using lithium imide metal nitride composites
Light metal amides and imides are a new class of highly active ammonia decomposition catalysts. Indeed, composites of lithium imide and transition metal nitrides are likely to... -
Building a comprehensive understanding of cation ordering in the commercial c...
The objective of the proposed experiment is to develop an understanding of the Li/Ni/Mn ordering in a commercially relevant lithium ion battery positive electrode,... -
Simultaneous Microwave Dielectric Spectroscopy and Neutron Diffraction Measur...
Ammonia has been proposed as a high density chemical energy-storage media, which can be safely and reversible stored within low cost saline halides. Here we propose to extend... -
Characterization of the anisotropy of the micro-structural properties of work...
Time of flight neutron diffraction (ToF-ND) is a powerful technique for the characterization of the micro-structural properties of the phases present in the sample. The Rietveld... -
Search for the magnetic photon in a candidate quantum spin ice
Recent theoretical analyses of quantum spin ice has revealed the present of a novel magnetic excitation whose quantum properties are analogous to photons. This mode is a... -
Neutron scattering and selective deuteration for elucidating how lipids regul...
Plants biosynthesise valuable pharmaceutical compounds by a series of enzyme complexes (or metabolons) that work in a concerted action. Metabolons enhance substrate channeling... -

One- and multi-magnon excitations in a strong-leg quantum spin ladder
We propose to measure the one- and multi-magnon excitations in the first realization of a S=1/2 quantum spin ladder in the strong-leg regime. Our material, DIMPY, has very well... -
D2O Vapour Diffusion at the Air Water Interface
A theoretical estimate of the H/D exchange rate for an open trough (e.g. D2O in ambient atmosphere, 50% relative humidity) yields an amount of exchanged liquid of the order of... -
Structures of phenol-ammonia and phenol-water compounds
Phenol-water and phenol-ammonia clusters are useful model systems for understanding the types of proton-transfer interactions that occur during photosynthesis in plants and... -
Effect of texture on generation of intergranular stresses in 316H
Intergranular stresses are generated in polycrystalline material due to anisotropic deformation during monotonic and cyclic loading. Such generated intergranular stresses can... -
Proton diffusion in lithium imide: a quasi-elastic neutron scattering study
Li_2NH has been recently considered for H_2 storage applications. However, its low-T crystal structure is still controversial, with at least 6 options compatible with the... -
Structures of ethanol ammonia cocrystals
Compounds of ethanol and ammonia have been known for over a century but no structural characterisation has ever been carried out. These materials allow us to examine a range of... -
Understanding the structure of constrained polymer thin-films: ¿artificial an...
The Mayes' group at UEA is world-leading in investigating core-shell nanoparticles as a promising format for 'synthetic antibodies', based on molecular imprinting. One of the... -
Hydrogen Bond Dynamics in Organic Ferroelectric Di-Chloromethylimidazole (DCM...
Organic ferroelectrics are in the focus of current research because their potential applications as a material to address global challenges. These lightweight, flexible and... -
Structural investigation of a possible magnetically-induced Weyl semi-metal
One of the major themes in solid-state physics is the realisation of exotic types of relativistic electrons which travel at speeds much slower than the speed of light. These... -
Determining the structure of the colicin OmpF complex
Large multiprotein complexes are the new frontier in structural biology. Individual proteins may be solved by X-ray crystallography but the relationships between subunits and... -
Pd, Ni, V, Nb and Ti capping layer clamping effects in hydrogen cycling in Ca...
We ask for 8 days of beam time on CRISP to study the absorption and desorption of hydrogen and deuterium in Ti/Mg/Pd trilayer samples. Our specific objective is to understand in... -
Determination of the Field Induce Magnetic Structure of Erbium Tetraboride
We propose to investigate the field induced behaviour of ErB4 using WISH. ErB4 is an example of experimental realisation of the Shastry-Sutherland lattice, a frustrated lattice...
