A GENERAL METHOD OF MEASURING ANTIOXIDANT CAPACITY
Antioxidants are very important molecules because they can prevent or slow down the oxidative damage to our bodies. When our bodies use oxygen, free radicals are released which... -
µSR study of centrosymmetric and non-centrosymmetric phase of HfRhGe
The field of non-centrosymmetric (NCS) superconductors has gathered much attention in recent years owing to its unconventional behavior. The lack of inversion symmetry in this... -
Spin dynamics in pyrochlore Nd2Mo2O7
Most of Nd-pyrochlores show all-in-all-out long-ranged order ground state at low temperatures. Recently unconventional slow spin dynamics are reported in the paramagnetic state... -
Determination of the Magnetic Properties of LaFeAs1-xPxO Across Multiple Magn...
LaFeAs1-xPxO has recently been proposed to display unusual properties as a function of P doping with two distinct superconducting (SC) domes separated by a possible AFM phase as... -
Hydrogen impurity in solar cell materials CIGS and CZTS
In this proposal we intend to complete the characterization of the hydrogen impurity in solar cell materials Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) and Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS), by using the positive... -
Quantitative imaging of the 3-D distribution of organic carbon in naturally s...
Soil organic carbon is of key importance for soil functioning. It strongly impacts soil fertility, greenhouse gas emissions, nutrient retention, and contaminant degradation... -
Low dimensional magnetism from metal-halide hydrogen bond motifs
We will examine the impact of metal-halide hydrogen bond motifs and their ability to provide low-dimensional superexchange pathways. Specifically, we wish to investigate two new... -
Degenerate ground-states in Ho2-xYxSn2O7
Ho2-xYxSn2O7 is characterized by degenerate magnetic ground-states, which involve the magnetic structure for x->0 (Spin-Ice phase) and the two-fold degeneracy of the... -
New BiCh2-based layered superconductor La1-xCexOBiSSe: A puzzling system in c...
Layered superconductors have been attracted substantial attention since the discovery of the cuprate and Fe-based high-Tc superconductors due to the diversity in their crystal... -
Superconducting intercalates of FeSe tuned in situ with ammonia
We propose to study two phases of Na-NH3 intercalated FeSe which have distinct values of Tc, both close to 40 K, but different concentrations of NH3 and quite distinct crystal... -
µSR studies of the superconducting and magnetic properties of FeSe1-xSx
FeSe1-xSx is an important model system for investigating the relationship between superconductivity and nematicity. The nematicity can be suppressed systematically by the... -
Investigating spin dynamics in spinel spin ice with musr and high freqeuncy s...
Spin ice materials exhibit novel magnetic behaviour because of their atomic interactions and geometric constraints of the crystal lattice. This novel behaviour takes the form of... -
Understanding the role of strong coupling in quasi-two-dimensional cage type ...
Systems that exhibit a high degree of anisotropy have been attracting considerable attention due to unique physical properties. Recently three superconductors (SC), BaIr2Ge7,... -
Development of Radio Frequency µSR as a Method for Determining Hyperfine Coup...
Radio Frequency µSR provides a direct method for accurately determining muon hyperfine coupling constants, Aµ, for muoniated radical species. The method complements the well... -
Spectroscopy of muon centres in n-type silicon carbide
We propose a series of measurements to complete the previous direct spectroscopic measurements of the Muonium defect energy levels in Silicon Carbide (SiC; RB110134). We will... -
A µSR study of a heavy fermion multiband superconductor, TlNi2Se2
Recently the compound TlNi2Se2 has gained interest as a potential playground of unconventional superconductor effects. Heat capacity and magnetization measurements hint at the... -
Investigating Superconductivity and charge density wave in 2H-PdxTaSe2
PdxTaSe2 series is an excellent system for the investigation of the interplay between CDW and superconductivity which shows quantum critical point for x = 0.1. Very recently, we... -

Dilution-induced spin glass in Na2IrO3: a MuSR study
We plan to investigate Na2IrO3 samples with a partial substitution of Na by means of a transition metal element (the cases of TM = Co, Ni, Cu and Zn will be considered). The... -
Spectroscopy of muon centres in n-type silicon carbide
We propose to continue laser spectroscopy measurements of the muonium (Mu-) centres in n-type doped silicon carbide. Scanning a wide wavelength range, and changing the relative...
