Structure of sodium calcium magnesium polyphosphate glasses
Phosphate based glasses, are being developed to replace the current silicate based systems as biomaterials. For application as biomaterials, beneficial ions can be added to... -
A Structural Study of Zinc Tellurite Glasses.
We wish to better understand the influence of a common modifier in optical tellurite glasses, zinc. The aim is to relate structural changes in zinc tellurite glasses with the... -
Investigating the Structure of the Fe-BTC MOF
Metalorganic frameworks (MOFs) are highly porous 3D materials, composed of metal clusters connected via organic linkers. Crystallinity is believed to be a prerequisite for gas... -
Quantum Spin Ice ground states and Structural Disorder in non-Kramers rare-ea...
Pyrochlore oxides based on non-Kramers rare-earth ions, such as Pr3+ and Tb3+, are candidate materials for the formation of the Quantum Spin Ice. However, structural disorder is... -
Neutron Diffraction Studies of Sodium Manganese Oxides with the P3 Structure.
Batteries have a variety of applications, including as storage of energy generated from renewable sources such as wind and solar. Whilst lithium-ion batteries dominate the... -
Magnetic order in the first hybrid layered fluoroperovskites
Layered perovskites are well known functional materials but, in the context of fluoride chemistry, have so far been restricted to purely inorganic examples: K2NiF4 is the... -
Extending the limits of experimental structure determination of amorphous sub...
Ge-As-Se glasses are interesting for two main reasons: they are widely used in infrared optics and optoelectronics and they serve as model materials for theories of glass... -
Local structure of liquid gallium-iodine and gallium-indium

Investigation of the relaxor-photoferroelectric Ba(Sn,Ti)O3 compounds using n...
The local structural distortions in BaTiO3-based solid solutions, where the Ti4+ site is substituted by isovalent Sn4+ cation Ba(Sn,Ti)O3, are characterized by no oxygen tilts... -
Investigating short-range nematic correlations in paradigmatic iron-based sup...
Iron-based superconductors possess an unusual property known as electronic nematicity, in which electrons spontaneously choose a preferred direction. The nematic state and its... -
Correlating Structural and Magnetic Disorder in Sc-substituted SCGO (SrCr9Ga3...
A prototypical frustrated magnet in which structural disorder plays a key role is SrCr9pGa12−9pO19 (SCGO). It is postulated that structurally ordered SCGO hosts a... -
Hybrid glassy chalcogenides with non-centrosymmetric HgI2 molecules
Non-linear optical (NLO) crystals are widely used in advanced photonic technologies for second harmonic and difference frequency generation (SHG, DFG), producing coherent light... -
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,... -
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... -
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... -
