Hydrogen Bonding Effects on the Nucleophilicity and Basicity of Fluoride Anio...
In nucleophilic fluorination reactions, developing strategies for tuning the reactivity profile of fluoride anion in organic solution is a major challenge. Inspired by Nature¿s... -
Local structure of deuterated perovskite methylammonium lead iodide CD3ND3PbI3
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... -
Spin dynamics in the zig-zag ladder beta-CaCr2O4
We propose to investigate the spin dynamics in the frustrated antiferromagnet beta-CaCr2O4. Its structure consist in one dimensional chains of Cr+3 forming the legs of zig-zag... -
Search for new hydrogen, helium and neon hydrates at high pressure
This proposal is for time to search for predicted gas hydrates at high pressure. The results will provide insight into the factors governing the stability of the H-bonded... -
Crystal field excitations on Sm based pyrochlores
The A2B2O7 pyrochlore family, where A is a rare earth ion and B=Ti, Sn, is one of the most prolific series of compounds presenting magnetic frustration. The geometric Fd-3m... -
Relaxation dynamics of a Dy-based single molecule magnet
Single-molecule magnets (SMM) exhibiting slow magnetic relaxation have attracted increasing interest, both from a fundamental point of view, and for the potential practical... -
Structural and Magnetic Properties from Charge Orders in Iron Perovskite Oxides
Highly oxidized transition metal cations in oxides tend to display unusual electronic and magnetic behavior due to the highly covalent nature of the M-O interactions. Iron is of... -
Recovery and characterisation of high-pressure phases in the systems H2O ¿ NH...
The objective of this experiment is to characterise four particular high-pressure polymorphs of various hydrates discovered by us in recent years during work carried out using... -
Orientational and conformational disorder in a halogen-ethane compound
The translational and orientational disorder of some liquids can be frozen if they are cooled down quick enough, giving rise to a Structural Glass (SG). But for some molecular... -
Lattice dynamics of ice XVII filled with monatomic and diatomic gases
The discovery of metastable ice XVII, which has a porous structure, suitable to be filled with hydrogen and other gases, has prompted our group to measure on TOSCA neutron... -
Molecular dynamics in the Metal-Organic Framework [CH3NH3][Co(COOH)3]
Magnetic hybrid organic-inorganic Perovskites have attracted much attention lately as they potentially show a magneto-electric coupling, thanks to the strong interaction between... -
Cation reorientation dynamics in a hybrid Prussian blue analogue
The cubic pores in many Prussian blue analogues are big enough to contain organic cations. In the material (HIm)2K[Fe(CN)6], the imidazolate guest cation is free to rotate in... -
Revising the onset of anharmonicity in proteins
Our previous INS studies of ¿dry¿/hydrated apoferritin show that the hydrated protein undergoes a dynamical transition, Td, at 200K. Such behavior, first modeled by Doster et al... -
Crystallographic and Magnetic structures of PrMn7O12
The study of novel manganites, where the tailoring of the Mn formal valence state on the B site is done by the ordering of different cations on the A site of the ABO3 (B:Mn)... -
Elucidating Magnetic Order in a Novel Iron Oxalate KFe(C2O4)F by Powder Neutr...
The increasing demand for portable energy means that the search for new electrode materials for rechargeable solid-state batteries is a key challenge in materials science.... -
Microscopic dynamics of water associated to phospholilipd/polysaccharide nano...
In recent years nano- and microparticles composed of polymeric or lipid material have been proposed as drug carriers. Their use allows the modification of the biopharmaceutic... -
Search for Weyl Magnon in LiGaCr4O8
Weyl magnon in the chromium-based breathing pyrochlores is a recently predicted novel magnetic excitation state. Similar to its anolog, Weyl fermion in the electric systems,... -
