Identification of hydrogenic species on skeletal Ni catalysts
Alloy catalysts are commonly employed for selective hydrogenation of organic molecules due to their enhanced selectivity than individual components but their structural and... -
PNR measurements of the induced magnetisation in nanocarbon.
Nanocarbon materials such as C60 show fascinating transport properties when in contact with a ferromagnet. Previous results indicate that this could be due to a spin polarized... -
Investigating the Mechanism of Cooperative Melting in Metal-Organic Frameworks
Zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) are formed from inorganic nodes connected by organic ligands, and share structural features with zeolites. They have recently been... -
Characterization of antiferromagnetic fluoride layers through PNR
Lithium fluoride (LiF) doping of aluminum electrodes is used in organic electronics. As a result of the chemical reaction between LiF and aluminum, the contact resistance is... -
Continuous contrast variation in magnetic reference layer measurements
We propose a feasibility study for continuous contrast variation in soft-condensed matter reflectometry experiments using the technique of magnetic reference layers. Changing... -
Microstructural orientation mapping with a neutron beam
We propose to develop the means to measure the orientations, phases and strains of individual crystal grains within a polycrystal using neutrons. Such measurements have... -
Li diffusion in charged state Lix(Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3)O2
This proposal describes a muSR experiment on Li-deficient Lix(Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3)O2 to determine a Li diffusion coefficient as a function of the Li content x, because muSR is a... -
Electric field effect on the interfacial uncompensated spins in the Co/BiFeO3...
We propose a study on the electric field control of uncompensated spins in the Co/BiFeO3/STO bilayer system by PNR. Multiferroic BiFeO3 (BFO) has attracted enormous interest... -
Proton dynamics of supported palladium/gold entities in technical catalysts f...
Vinyl acetate is used on the million tonnes per year scale for the production of various grades of polyvinyl acetate, a component in paper, adhesive and textile applications.... -
Proton dynamics of graphenes of different hydrogen content
Graphene is defined as a: single layer of carbon atoms with each atom bound to three neighbours in a honeycomb structure. This suggests that in a macroscopic, manageable... -
Determination of the Low Temperature Crystal Structure of Cobalt Adipate
This experiment will use high resolution neutron diffraction to investigate the crystal and magnetic structure of the cobalt adipate framework, Co(CO2(CH2)4CO2), at lower... -
Neutron scattering from topological magnetic structures in Fe1-xCoxSi
FeSi is a member of the transition metal (TM) monosilicides. The crystal structure is isostructural from MnSi through to CoSi with magnetic properties that alter dramatically... -
INS studies with MAPS of Nafion and model compounds
In the archetypal hydrogenoxygen proton exchange membrane fuel cell design, a proton-conducting polymer membrane (typically Nafion) contains the electrolyte solution that... -
Study of local orientations in diisocyano linkages relevant to the design of ...
Recent work on self assembling monolayers with diisocyano linkages have shown their great potential for application to photovoltaics. The next step is to determine the... -
Fluctuating stripes in an insulating hole-doped antiferromagnet
In a recent letter to Nature, Boothroyd and coworkers have shown that the well known hour-glass spectrum, previously observed in some cuprate materials, occurs in a hole doped... -

EuO tunnel barriers and metallic interfaces
The tunneling magnetoresistance ratio of a magnetic tunnelling junction is influenced by many different factors, one of which is hybridization at the metal/oxide interface. We... -
Magnetism in novel organic/inorganic hybrid spin-valve nanostructures.
We request 5 days (15 shifts) with CRISP to perform specular measurements on novel functionalized SrTiO3(substrate)/complex FM oxide/small molecules/ FM metal nanostructures to... -
Deuteration-induced phase transition in a multiferroic framework material
The hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites are of great interest as functional materials, because they combine the well-established perovskite topology with new physics and... -
In-situ neutron diffraction investigation of Ni-based batteries
Ni-based secondary batteries are currently used in many applications, however, the structural changes at the electrodes are not fully characterized and neutron diffraction is a...
