Novel cathode materials for rechargeable batteries have been under intense investigation since high cost and toxicity of current Li-ion batteries. We propose to study the...

Acceptor-doped perovskite oxides exhibit significant proton conductivity under humid or hydrogen containing atmosphere, which opens a unique possibility to be used as...

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...

New polyionic zwiterionic salts have been developed that show extreme hydrophilicity, offering potential to form microsegregated structures in the presence of water. In these...

following on the success of measuring the electronic excitation in NiO using MAPS, we wish to make similar but more extended measurements of the electronic excitations in CoO...

ODS alloys are currently considered as one of the most promising nuclear materials for high-temperature applications in the ¿Generation-IV Nuclear Reactors¿. The proposed...

This proposal is to determine high quality structural models using Rietveld analysis for the pyrochlore phases CaLnTr0.5Nb1.5O7 (Ln = La, Nd, Ho, Yb and Tr = Al, Sc, Cr, Mn, Fe,...

We propose to measure the high energy magnetic dispersion of CuO. At high energies, CuO exhibits quasi-1D spin-1/2 chain magnetic behaviour. Our previous studies have revealed...

Gallium oxide is an apparently simple oxide that has been reported to exist as at least 5 polymorphs all of which are stable at room temperature. Structural models, however, for...

Considerable effort is currently given to investigate proton conducting electrolyte materials for intermediate temperature range (200-500 °C) fuel cells (ITFCs). This proposal...

We seek to explore extreme confinement on the vibrational density of states of polyethylene oxide (PEO) over a wide energy-transfer range (10-3000 cm-1). These experiments are...
