We request beam time on Vesuvio to investigate the samples taken from and prepared in parallel with Superconducting Radio Frequency (SRF) Nb cavities in order to investigate the... -
Development of thermal microstress and microstrain in polycrystalline zinc: p...
Thermal microstress and microstrain develop in polycrystalline zinc powder particles due to anisotropic thermal expansion, as revealed by corresponding diffraction-line... -
Tuneable thermal expansion in framework materials: a case for neutron Compton...
The full strength of the VESUVIO+ beamline on the Target Station 1 (TS1) will be exploited to globally tackle the local phenomenon of the tuneable thermal expansion in two... -
Variable Temperature Neutron Diffraction Studies of Thermal Battery Cathode M...
Thermal batteries find use in applications such as emergency power systems and ejector seats in aircraft. As a result, systems need to be highly reliable. This requires a... -
Improper ferroelectricity in hexagonal tungsten bronzes
We address the detailed atomistic mechanism of ferroelectricity in a new family of oxides typified by the composition CsNbW2O9. Contrary to the mechanism in most ferroelectrics,... -

Modulation in Molecular Materials - Variable Temperature
Modulation occurs when there is ordering on two (or more) length scales. When the ratio of these is an integer, the modulation is said to be commensurate, i.e. one ordering is... -
Continued studies of materials in the BiFeO3-KNbO3 solid solution
In recent years there has been a resurgence in research dedicated to ferroelectric materials primarily due to the combination of the requirement for Pb-free replacements for... -
Polymorphism and structure-property relations in 12H-type perovskite (Ba,La)1...
We request one day of beam-time on POLARIS to collect Neutron Diffraction (ND) data from three novel 12H-type hexagonal perovskites that exhibit higher than expected... -
Chasing the symmetry of the BiFeO3 γ-phase in the isostructural A- and B...
BiFeO3 is by far the most widely studied multiferroic material and yet many mysteries remain in the phase diagram. One mystery is the crystal structure of the high T gamma... -
How do rotational motions alter the local potential of nanoscopic molecules? ...
C60 represents the prototypical case study for a highly geometric nanoscopic entity that exhibits exotic dynamical and thermodynamic transitions. Yet little in general is known... -
Structural Distortions in the Spin Ladder Compounds Ba2CuTe1-xWxO6
Ba2CuTeO6 has garnered considerable interest as the combination of stacking sequence and Cu2+ displacements lead to a magnetic geometry that reproduce the effects of a spin... -
