Nearly all polymers form glasses and the glass transition at temperature Tg dominates many physical properties of polymers that are relevant for their applications. The most...

Muon spin relaxation will be used to study the dynamical properties of the polymer polydimethylsiloxane. This has emerged as an excellent model system for the study of polymer...

The structure and dynamics of hydrogen (H) defects in tungsten recently become a topic of major interest since this metal has been chosen as shielding material for the next step...

Green dioptase is a naturally occurring mineral, that has a deep green colour, similar to that of an emerald, and with a chemical formula of CuSiO3.H2O. The Cu lies in quasi-1D...

The muSR experiments on a diluted Ising antiferromagnet HoxY1-xRu2Si2 are proposed for aiming verification of the Griffiths singularity. In preceding neutron scattering and muSR...

In this proposal we plan to investigate the anomalous magnetism of Ce in recently discovered CeO0.5F0.5BiS2 and Sr0.5Ce0.5FBiS2 magneto-superconductors. The proposed compounds...

Preliminary measurements of [FeFe]-hydrogenase model complexes were made in a previous experiment using EMU (RB 1010177). The results were interpreted in combination with DFT...

Using muon spin relaxation and ALC resonance spectroscopy the electron spin relaxation and mobility of the polymer P3HS will be measured as a function of temperature. The...

We wish to perform muon spectroscopic experiments on materials from two ceramic systems that are of interest for possible solid electrolyte applications in lithium-ion battery...

We propose a series of LF-MuSR measurements to complete a study on the neutral and diamagnetic muonium (Mu) states in single-crystal beta-Ga2O3 where Mu is being used as an...

The organic-inorganic hybrid systems consist of organic and inorganic components forming a 2 D layered structure. The distance between adjacent magnetic layers is quite far,...

Diluted magnetic semiconductors offer the possibility of adding the spin degree of freedom to the electrical and optical semiconducting devices that underpin modern technology....

A controlled investigation of light-induced changes in hybrid perovskites is required to achieve stable operation of tandem solar cells and colour-tuneable light-emitting...

We are currently investigating Haldane spin-chain compounds [PRB 2017] of the type R2BaNiO5 (R = rare earth) using bulk measurements and have found the multifunctional...

Nd2Ir2O7 stands out as a fascinating system among pyrochlore iridates because of its potential for realizing a new topological semimetal state which its emergence strongly...

Magnetic skyrmions are vortex-like objects characterised by an integer topological winding number. They have been observed in the spin structures of several magnetic materials...

Skyrmions are topologically protected, vortex-like nano-sized objects which have been shown to exist in the spin textures of a range of magnetic materials. As we have recently...

We propose to study PdxIrTe2, which evolves from a charge-orbital density wave state to a superconducting state with doping. It has a similar structural motif, doping-dependent...

Since 2009, perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have become a topic of immense interest in the research community, while performances of PSCs are in a position to challenge the...

We propose a TF-muSR investigation of the superconducting properties of the REFe_(1-y)Ru_yAsO_{1-x}F_x compound (RE=La, Sm). In this system the substitution of Fe by the...
