The Structure of Alkaline Earth Germanate Glasses
We request GEM beamtime to study the structure of a series of calcium germanate glasses. The changes in coordination number and properties which occur in alkali germanate... -
A Structural Study of Alkaline-Earth Tellurite Glasses.
We wish to better understand the interaction between the alkaline earth modifiers and the tellurite glass network. The aim is to relate structural changes in the glasses with... -
Null Isotope Study of Lithium Borogermanate Glasses - continuation
Alkali borogermanate glasses are topologically complex, in that [BOn] (n = 3, 4)and [GeOn] (n = 4, 5, 6) polyhedra can coexist. Equilibrium between these structural units has... -
Developing a model for tellurium coordination change in glasses
We wish to better understand the evolution of the tellurium environment in glasses with the addition of modifier oxides. The aim is to relate these structural changes to the... -
Structural Studies of Complex Mixed-Metal Pyrochlore and Spinel Oxides
Our objective is to determine structural models for some complex, mixed-metal oxide phases that are as complete as possible using analysis of PDFs produced from total neutron... -
A structural study of titanium tellurite glasses
Tellurite glasses exhibit strong non-linear properties which are related to the asymmetric environment of the Te atom. The non-linear optical effects are strongest when the Te... -
Structure of niobium phosphate glasses
Niobium is one of the candidates for causing strong non-linear optical properties in oxide glasses. Recently, Raman gain experiments on niobium phosphate glasses were quite... -
Mercury sulphide dimorphism in liquids and glasses
A waste majority of crystals exists in several polymorphic forms in different domains of the P,T-diagram. Liquids and glasses also exhibit polyamorphism and the question remains... -
The Nature Of Zinc Substitution in Beta-Tricalcium Phosphate
We have a long established interest in the materials used for the immobilisation of nuclear waste from the domestic power industry and legacy waste from various defence... -
Effect of Composition on Local Environment of Sulphate in Silicate Glasses
We will study the effects of changes in composition and structure of alkali silicate and alkali-alkaline earth silicate glasses on its sulphate incorporation capacities. Total... -
Structural studies of bioactive yttrium doped alumino-silicate glasses.
Yttrium doped glasses are of considerable interest due to their potential for use as in-vivo radioactive beta- emitters for localised treatment of liver cancer and other... -
Local structure of the semiconductor caesium lead iodide
Caesium lead iodide is of interest both as a photoluminescent material whose optical properties may be tuned by creating nanoscale structures, and as an inorganic analogue of... -
Deuterium Site Determination in Quasicrystal Deuteride (Ti45Zr38Ni17)0.42D0.5...
We propose neutron diffraction experiments on quasicrystals (Ti45Zr38Ni17)1-xDx (x = 0 and 0.58). Ti45Zr38Ni17 absorbs and desorbs hydrogen atoms substantially. However the... -
Investigating the local structure of sodium within Bioglass®.
Bioactive glasses are of considerable interest due to their potential for biomedical applications. In order to model the behaviour and dissolution of these materials it is... -
Atomic and electronic structure of 6Li/7Li enriched binary lithium silicate g...
Since local coordination state of lithium cation is important for functional lithium-containing glasses, deep understanding of the structure at atomic and electronic level is a... -
The structure of metal metaborate glasses
Scientific studies of borate glasses tend to focus on alkali borates, which can be made over a wide and continuous composition range. Contrastingly, metal borates have a wide... -
Mercury Sulphide Dimorphism in Thiogermanate Glasses
Crystalline mercury sulphide exists in two drastically different polymorphic forms: red chain-like insulator, alpha-HgS, and black tetrahedral narrow-band semiconductor,... -
Structural origins of the high sulphur solubility of barium rich glasses
We will investigate the structural origin of the high sulphate solubility of Ba-rich silicate glasses with radioactive waste immobilisation applications by measuring total... -
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... -
