A quantitative understanding of magneto-electrical coupling in the multiferro...
The multiferroic (type II) compound, CoCr2O4 undergoes a spiral magnetic ordering and concomitant ferroelectric transition at the spiral ordering temperature (26.3 K). The... -
Understanding composition-driven anomalous tetragonality in a ferroelectric s...
The primary aim of this proposal to investigate a series of newly discovered Bi- containing ferroelectric systems based on Bi(MeMe)O3-PbTiO3 perovskite through studying their... -
Crystallographic determination of the minting of coins in Tudor Britain : an ...
King Henry VIII's flagship, the Mary Rose, offers a unique insight into Tudor life. As well as her value as one of the first purpose built warships of the modern period,... -
The local structure in high-entropy alloy deuterides probed by neutron total ...
High-entropy alloys (HEAs) typically contain four or more principle elements in approximately equimolar amounts. It was recently discovered by the co-proposer that a... -
Structure of novel silica-free titanate glasses
Silica-free barium titanate bulk glasses, containing lanthanide elements, show unusually high dielectric response and a high refractive index. These properties allow crucial... -
Structural and Magnetic Characterisation of a Novel Magnetic MOF
Metal organic framework (MOF) materials are porous solids formed from a network of metal centres mainly coordinated to organic linkers. Examples of magnetic MOFs with strong... -
Structures of New Doped RuO2 Rutiles
We have prepared some new mixed-metal oxides using a chemical synthesis approach that provides access to materials not seen using other techniques. The materials are potentially... -
Decomposition studies of Li(1-x)NaxND2, LiNa2(ND2)3 and Li3Na(ND2)4
We ask for 3 days on GEM to study in-situ the decomposition of the Na-substituted LiNH2 phases, Li1-xNaxND2, LiNa2(ND2)3, Li3Na(ND2)4 and their reactions with LiD. LiNH2 is the... -
Neutron diffraction and µSR investigation on YbPd
YbPd crystallizes in the cubic CsCl-type structure and reported to have magnetically ordered ground state with the mixed valence of the Yb ion. Further, it under goes through... -
Low Temperature Ordering in ZrMn2+xD3 Superstochiometric Deuterides
ZrMn2H3 is a Laves Phase intermetallic hydride with interesting materials properties - unlike most Laves Phases, the parent alloy ZrMn2 is not a line phase but has a wide range... -
Complimentary Neutron & X-ray Total Scattering Study of Doped Ceria-Zirconia ...
In 2020, strict legislations will be introduced, further restricting the CO, NOx, and hydrocarbon gas emission for motorcycles (MCs). In this industrial postdoc project,... -
Cation ordered transtion metal oxides
LaCa2Fe2GaO8 adopts a 3-layer cation-ordered structure. Magnetisation data collected from this phase exhibit two high-temperature anomalies consistent with the onset of... -
