A pair distribution function study of the thermoelectric skutterudites Co1-2x...
Sustainable energy-conversion technologies are important for ensuring our energy supply against declining fossil fuel reserves. Thermoelectric materials offer great potential... -
A pair distribution function study of thermoelectric bornites
Thermoelectric materials are attracting increasing attention due to their potential for waste heat energy recovery. The challenge in finding better thermoelectric materials lies... -
Shear driven assembly of magnetic nanoparticles close to a solid-liquid inter...
Ferro-fluids are liquids where magnetic nano-particles are dispersed in a solvent and are covered with surfactants to prevent clustering. If a magnetic field is applied to such... -
Influence of Aliphatic for Tackifiers on Glassy Domains in Hot Melt Adhesives
We have recently shown by neutron reflectometry, that the glassy styrenic blocks, normally assumed to be impervious to aliphatic oligomers do in fact show a significant level of... -
Local structure in Ti2AlX (X = Ta, Mo, Nb, Cr or Fe) B2 ordered intermetallic...
Research focused on improving the efficiency of gas turbines is of great importance for energy generation and transportation. A much desired way of achieving this is the... -
Wetting Transitions of Tackifiers in Adhesives
Migration and surface segregation of low molecular weight oligomers in adhesive formulations is a poorly understood, but hugely important phenomenon, responsible for most of the... -
Host-Guest Interactions at the Surface of a Cucurbit[8]uril Threaded Polymer
The increased use of polymers in engineering applications previously dominated by metals or ceramics gives the opportunity for direct tailoring of the surface characteristics... -
Nature of the protein corona on nanoparticle surfaces
When nanoparticles enter a biosytem they rapidly acquire a protein corona. The nature of the outer part of this corona will determine the response of the biosystem to the... -
Fluoride uptake by polyaniline films for water purification and remediation
The beneficial effects of fluoride are well known, but higher levels are dangerous to health. Existing remediation methods used to address the latter situation all have... -
A study of protein adsorption via chelating lipids within a solid supported l...
The crystallisation of membrane proteins is of great interest, not least, to the pharmaceutical industry. We have recently begun a project aiming to investigate the role played... -
Structure of Colloidal Crystals Near a Solid Surface
The structure of colloidal crystals (dispersions of particles that spontaneously order in a regular array) is known to be influenced by solid boundaries. However there are few... -
Interplay of apoptosis regulating Bcl-2 proteins at mitochondrial membranes u...
Mitochondria are not only the powerhouse of the cell, but are also involved in cellular suicide via apoptosis (programmed cell death). This pathway is a major regulator in cell... -
Spin excitations in the first magnetic Weyl semimetal Co3Sn2S2
In contrast to the extensively verified Weyl semimetals with broken inversion symmetry, magnetic Weyl semimetals, which break time reversal symmetry, were only theoretically... -
Optimisation of Experimental Conditions for the Study of Anionic Self-Assembl...
We have developed a Self-assembled floating supported membrane sample system comprised of unsaturated phospholipid bilayers held ~1nm from a PEGylated charged alkane thiol SAM... -

Proton Zero Point Energy Effects on the Folding of Proteins
Earlier experiment at ISIS have shown that water responds to the distortion of the hydrogen bond network by delocalizing some of the protons in the vicinity of the defects. That... -

Dye...TiO2 interfacial structure of working electrodes in dye-sensitized sola...
The transparent and low-cost nature of dye-sensitised solar cells (DSCs) affords them niche prospects for electricity-generating windows in buildings for energy-sustainable... -
Order in the bulk and at the surface of dispersions of colloidal particles
Highly ordered dispersions of charged polymer particles that are tens or hundreds of nanometres diameter can be prepared. These are useful model systems for self-assembly and... -
Exploring colloidal assembly in periodic nano-confinements using neutron spin...
Colloids in confinements have structural and dynamic properties in some cases very different from bulk properties. In particular, when the width of the confinement is few times...
