Understanding the "post-perovskite" structure (II): the Behaviour of CaPtO3 a...
Recently, our view of the Earth¿s lower mantle changed dramatically. It had been thought that two major phases were present throughout all of the lower mantle:... -
PDF analysis of Li+ ordering in defect perovskite Li0.18Sr0.66Ti0.5Nb0.5O3 (L...
Our work on LSTN showed that it exhibits favourable electrochemical properties, i.e. rapid diffusion of lithium into the structure at low temperatures and the ability to... -
Characterisation of Pearlman's catalyst
Pearlman¿s catalyst is commonly used in various hydrogenation, arylation and O-debenzyaltion reactions. The catalyst is unusual that it is active but not pyrophoric. It is... -
Characterising Early Iron Age Indian Iron Smelting Technology: neutron analysis
Recent archaeological research, supported by radiocarbon dates, indicates that iron production in India can now be dated to the earlier part of the 2nd millennium BC, pre-dating... -
The application of INS to characterise iron based Fischer-Tropsch catalysts a...
In conjunction with an industrial partner (Sasol), the applicants have previously used INS measurements performed on the MAPS spectrometer to characterise a series of iron based... -
Local structural effects in doped NaNbO3 ferroelectrics
Derivatives of the perovskite NaNbO3 are currently being studied as benign replacements for piezoelectric Pb(Zr,Ti)O3. In order to understand the structure-composition-property... -
Conformational analysis of subtilin / lipid II binary antibiotic/target membr...
Antibiotic resistance is pathogenic bacteria is a major clinical problem. Resistance to all antibiotiotic classes, currentl yin clinical use, has been reported. By contrast, the... -
Chain exchange mechanism of complex coacervate core micelles
Complex coacervates have been studied for a long time for their medical applications and unusual physical-chemical properties: they are dense networks of poly-electrolytes, that... -
Neutron Reflectivity study of lipopolysaccharide complexes with lateral domai...
We propose to investigate the role of lateral phase separation on LPS insertion into model membranes and the effects of target membrane structure and composition. A comparison... -
Na order and diffusion in NaxCoO2: Part II
Recently there have been reports that high-temperature sodium order and dynamics in NaxCoO2 (NCO) can strongly influence both the electronic & magnetic properties at low... -
Oxidation of bilayer of labelled DPPC by aqueous hydroxyl radical elucidati...
Oxidation of atmospheric aerosol can produce cloud condensation nuclei capable of changing the reflectivity and lifetime of clouds. The oxidation of organic film on atmospheric... -
Determining the Structure of Simple Stratum Corneum Lipid Models for Drug Del...
Using a simple model we wish to mimic the lipid structure of the stratum corneum (the top layer of the skin). The simple model offers several advantages to our research area... -
Characterisation of the magnetic properties of SnxFe4xN
Gamma'-Fe4N exhibits fascinating magnetic properties. It adopts a simple perovskite-like structure (space group Pm-3m) with iron atoms occupying the corners (Wyckoff position... -
Behaviour of hexamethylenetetramine hexahydrate to 5 GPa
The title compound, more succinctly referred to as HMT-hydrate, is a rare example of a water-framework zeolite structure with an organic guest molecule hydrogen bonded to the... -
The zero-point energy of the unusual ice II phase
Water displays a highly complex phase diagram that is key to a range of critical processes, from the evolution of icy moons to that of the Earth's hydrosphere and even of life... -
Structure of the lithium battery cathode Li2+2x(Fe,Mn)1-xSiO4
There is great interest in scaling up Li-ion batteries for use in electric vehicles, requiring cheap and safe cathodes. Li2FeSiO4 shows promising performance as a cathode but... -
Helium quantum rattling in clathrate hydrate cages studied through neutron Co...
The proposing team is interested in exploring the low-temperature quantum "rattling" dynamics of helium atom(s) trapped in water-based cages (namely the so-called "clathrate... -
