Order-disorder and phase transitions in the LiFeO2 cathode materials
Despite the importance of the LiFeO2 phases as cathode materials in lithium ion batteries, little is known about their crystal structures, except that they should be based on... -
Crystalline electric field levels in a rare-earth triangular-lattice antiferr...
The rare-earth frustrated magnets with dipole-octupole doublet trigger intense research interests due to their exotic quantum phases including spin fragmentation. The newly... -
Magnetic excitations in FeCrAs
We propose to carry out inelastic neutron scattering experiments to study magnetic excitation spectrum in FeCrAs. FeCrAs exhibits magnetic ordering around 125 K, which is... -
INS studies of molecular hydrogen in K-doped electrospun graphite nanofibres
The physisorptive capacity of graphite-based nanomaterials for hydrogen is strongly dependent on their internal surface areas and pore dimensions. We have made electrospun... -
Cascading magnetization plateaus in monoclinic CoV2O6
The aim of this proposal is to understand the origin of the cascade of magnetisation plateaus in monoclinic CoV2O6. While 1/3 plateaus have been reported in the literature,... -

The use of INS to characterise deactivation of methane reforming catalysts.
For the first time, the research team aim to use INS to characterise a series of candidate methane reforming catalysts. Recent studies have shown that modification of... -
Multiferroic (Ferroelastic/Magnetic) Phase Transitions in KMnF3
KMnF3 perovskite undergoes 3 structural, and two magnetic phase transitions on cooling from 300 K to 2 K. Above 185 K the compound is in the aristotype structure, on cooling... -
Novel quantum spin liquid state in the S=3/2 dimer lattice in Ba3ZnRu2O9
We have discovered a novel type of quantum spin liquid in a hexagonal lattice of Ru5+ dimers in Ba3ZnRu2O9, where any traces of the Curie tail or glassy behavior have not been... -
INS Determination of the Surface Properties of Nanoparticle Pollutants
Metal oxide nanoparticles are a form of pollution generated by a number of industrial procedures, and there is evidence that this class of nanoparticle can have a detrimental... -
