Polyoxometallates (POM) are well defined transition metal clusters with a range of interesting catalytic, magnetic and optical properties. To make efficient use of these...

Geometrically frustrated spin systems are important owing to the fact that the geometry often suppresses conventional mean field ground states in favor of more unconventional...

Surfactant-silica self-assembly processes have been extensively studied since the discovery of M41S mesoporous materials in 1992. Mesoporous silicate films can be grown from...

The research and development of new detection devices is a key issue to be addressed in neutron scattering due to the lack of 3He worldwide. Neutron radiative capture in heavy...

We have recently prepared mesoporous forms of various metals oxides. In some cases the imposition of a mesostructure changes other properties of the material significantly. One...

Oxides of 5d elements such as Ir and Os have been attracting much attention as candidates to realize novel types of electronic ground states stabilized by the strong spin orbit...

Geometrically frustrated lanthanide gallium garnets find practical applications as low temperature magnetocalorics, but the competing interactions in these materials may give...

Unconventional superconductivity has recently been suggested in the new class of iron-based superconductors in which unusual gap symmetries have been observed together with...

Ni-Mn based Heusler alloys are magnetic multifunctional materials currently under intense research efforts thanks to their unique coexistence of a reversible structural...

To our knowledge, the length of the U¿H single bond has never been accurately measured, at least not in a molecular compound by single-crystal neutron diffraction. We currently...

Recently new molecular based magnets Li2AMo3O8 (A = In and Sc), where Mo3O8 clusters form S = 1/2 triangular lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnet, were synthesized....

Silicon is currently the base of all modern electronics and advanced computing. One route to future advanced computing called spintronics exploits the energy saving and quantum...

The growth in both global demand for energy and fossil-fuel related environmental issues drive research on alternative fuel sources. Solid oxide fuel cells, which can operate on...

CeRhIn5 shows the rich phase diagram with superconductivity, spin density wave and charge density wave. The appearance of the Fermi surface nesting inside the antiferromagnetic...

In BaDy2O4, the magnetic Dy3+ ions are arranged in a network of triangles and hexagons, and coupled with antiferromagnetic exchange interactions, which gives rise to geometric...

Muon nuclear quadrupolar level crossing resonance is not a well-known technique, however it is extremely powerful. There is a large interest in probing the muon stopping site...

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...

We propose to use NR to study the structural features of the model wheat wax films formulated from the known main components of long chain primary alcohols and an ester. By...

We request GEM beamtime to study the structure of samples of sodium silicate glass with and without CO3 carbonate groups. The presence of CO3 carbonate groups in the glasses is...

This proposal is to measure the evolution of the magnetic structures of a series of iron oxide chalcogenides and compare the structures as a function of cation sizes and with...
