The use of INS to investigate reactions relevant to Fischer-Tropsch catalysis
In collaboration with an industrial partner, the PI is seeking to use INS to help characterise a series of catalysts active for the important Fischer-Tropsch (F-T) process. As... -
High Energy Spin Fluctuations in BaFe1.9Ni0.1As2
There has been much research into the recently discovered iron based superconductors, but so far only the magnetic excitations at low energy have been investigated. We propose... -
Polarized neutron reflectivity investigation of Fe+ ion irradiated FeCr films
For Fusion energy applications FeCr ferritic martensitic steels are candidate structural materials due to their radiation resistance and good mechanical properties. Thus, the... -
PNR of Magnetic Order in Delta-Doped Topological Insulators
We aim at studying proximity effects between a ferromagnetic thin film (either metallic or insulating) and a topological insulator (either undoped, or magnetically homogeneously... -
Magnetic interactions in ferromagnetic topological insulator multilayer struc...
Topological insulators are one of the most important recent discoveries in condensed matter physics. The topological surface state can become gapped when ferromagnetic order is... -
INS Study of Deep Eutectic Solvents
Deep Eutectic Solvents (DESs) are emerging as low-cost and environment-friendly solvents for industrial process. DESs are formed by the association of a hydrogen bond-capable... -
Electronic state of Co3+ in LaCoO3
We will search for spin-orbit transitions of the Co3+ ions in LaCoO3. The ground state is a non-magnetic singlet, but there continues to be a debate about the nature of the... -
Texture memory and variant selection for steel and titanium and zirconium alloys
The proposed experiment will focus on determining the level of texture memory and variant selection on both heating and cooling for steel and titanium and zirconium alloys with... -
Temperature and environment dependence of the isotope effect in muonated radi...
We plan to measure the hyperfine constants for both the muon and the equivalent hydrogen atom in a small muonated radical using time-differential ALC. We will follow this as a...
