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...

We propose to use Polaris to record powder neutron diffraction data for the oxygen deficient double perovskite Sr3SbO5.5 as a function of temperature to establish the...

We propose to study two aspects of the hydrogen dynamics in complex hydrides:First: The structural transitions in borohydrides are believed to be connected with an increase in...

Research on organic photo-voltaics (PVs) has increased dramatically in the last few years, owing to the promise of low manufacturing costs, high production throughput and large...

Due to the importance of developing efficient biomass conversion processes, the mobility of lignin constituents phenol and catechol in zeolite Beta will be studied using QENS....

Triglycine sulfate is one of the few genuinely second-order ferroelectric phase transitions. As for many ferroelectric phase transitions in complex and molecular systems, there...

Asphaltenes are a complex and problematic fraction of crude oil that can precipitate, alter wettability and stabilise unwanted oil-in-water emulsions. Asphaltenes have a high...

NOx emissions from the energy and transport sectors represent a major hazard to human health and this has been the focus of significant industrial and academic research. One of...

Ammonia is seen as a key part of the transition to a sustainable energy economy, but needs decomposition catalysts to release its stored hydrogen. Lithium nitride-hydride...

We request 3 days’ beam time on POLARIS for in-situ powder diffraction studies of the reactions of lithium amide or lithium imide with manganese(IV) oxide under flowing argon or...

The recent interest in carbon-based materials like graphene stimulated a deeper analysis of the magnetism in graphite defects. In a previous µSR experiment we observed an...

Although the surface properties and self-organisation of end-functional polymers in amorphous blends are well understood, the influence of crystallinity has received little...
