This proposal aims to exploit the high resolution of HRPD and OSIRIS to probe the structures of the solid solution Ba2CoO2Cu2(Te1-xSex)2. The compound Ba2CoO2Cu2Te2 shows...

This proposal presents a comparative study of the adsorption of three key chemical groups onto an important technological substrate, viz. fatty acid salt (Sodium hexanoate),...

Our aim is to determine whether the fast dynamics, of either the backbone or the phenyl ring of polystyrene, are altered by the presence of carbon nanotubes, and, if so, whether...

This is a proposal to fully characterise the crystal structures of the superconducting metal/ammonia intercalates of FeSe made using low temperature methods. In particular we...

We propose to use inelastic neutron scattering to search for the existence of spin fluctuations in two iron phosphide superconductors, (La,Ca)FePO and Sr2ScFePO3. The objective...

The purpose of this experiment is to gather structural data on the electron-doped derivatives of LiFeAs obtained by substituting some Fe by Co or Ni. In particular these data...

A new family of FeAs superconductors have very recently (Autumn 2008) been discovered in which, rather than alternating rare earth oxide layers with FeAs layers (as for the new...

The recent discovery of superconductivity in a series of iron pnictide materials has provided impetus to the field of new materials discovery. Like in the cuprate...

We have recently shown that the addition of single walled carbon nanotubes produces a minimum in the diffusion coefficient with increasing nanoparticle concentration. Initially,...

We propose to use POLARIS to obtain detailed structural information on a series of new lithium-containing layered oxychalcogenides and to investigate the ordering of lithium...

In this novel proposal we will investigate adsorption onto the non-equilibrium face of calcite the first time this has been attempted. This will compliment and extend our...

We will use POLARIS to determine the structures of the high temperature superconducting intercalates obtained by the reactions between FeSe and deuterated ammonia solutions...

We propose to use POLARIS to perform two related experiments. Firstly we will investigate the structures and compositions of derivatives of some layered Mn/Cu oxysulfides which...

Our previous studies of superconducting LiFeAs derivatives revealed a significant difference in Uemura scaling compared with all other studied pnictides. This experiment is...

Very recently, bulk superconductivity has been found at Tc = 43 K in the layered compound FeSe intercalated with Li ions and amide and ammonia molecular groups. We propose to...

We have recently prepared and studied the surface properties of some well-defined multi-end functional polyethylenes. Whilst most of our surface studies indicate that these...

We have recently shown that the addition of single walled carbon nanotubes produces a minimum in the diffusion coefficient with increasing nanoparticle concentration. Initially,...

This proposal seeks to identify and characterise the adsorption of primary linear amides that adsorb to the surface from the bulk of a polymer melt. These layers are...

The recent discovery of superconductivity in a series of iron pnictide materials has provided impetus to the field of new materials discovery. Like in the cuprate...

In this experiment we will determine the detailed structure of the 6 K superconductor LiFeP and phases close in composition which are iron rich: Li1-xFe1+xP. This will enable...
