Probing the Magnetism and Suspected Quantum Fluctuations in Green Dioptase
It has been suggested that within green dipotase there the magnetism is dominated by quantum flucuations but evidence for this is not definitive. This means that in this... -
Detailed investigation of the magnetic interaction as a function of temperature
In the series R2PdSi3,the Nd compound is considered to be an anomalous as it orders ferromagnetically (TC= 16 K) with a weak frequency-dependent ac susceptibility (χ)... -
Rates of Molecular Transfer Across Interfacial Layers Using µSR
The first direct measurements of the rate of transfer of a probe molecule across an interfacial layer have been made at PSI, using TF and ALC-MuSR. This application for beamtime... -
Spontaneous surfactant multilayer formation at interfaces induced by multival...
The spontaneous formation of multilayer structures at interfaces from surfactant self-assembly is now emerging as an important structural signature associated with a wide range... -
Skyrmion phase dynamics in the beta-Mn-type system Co8Zn8Mn4
Skyrmions are topological objects which have been shown to exist in the spin textures of a range of magnetic materials. As we have recently demonstrated in our transverse field... -

Adsorption of tetraalkylammonium (R4N+) counterions into monolayers of surfac...
This proposal is to explore adsorption of tetraalkylammonium (R4N+) counterions into monolayers of surfactant anions (see Figure 1) at the air-water interface, as a function of... -
Structure of phospholipid monolayers containing lipid-PEG-ligand
The incorporation of lipid-PEG-ligand molecules into liposome membrane imparts targeting ability and specificity to liposomes. Crucial for the targeting ability is the... -
Unconventional superconductivity in quasi-1D K_2Cr_3As_3
Metallic systems with one-dimensional chain-like atomic structure can support unusual mechanisms for electron pairing leading to superconductivity. K_2Cr_3As_3 is one of a... -
Muons for Energy Nanonics
LiFePO4 (LFP) is a commercially applied cathode material for lithium ion batteries. With its Li ion hopping predominantly occurring along one-dimensional channels, LFP is a very... -
Magnetic Ordering in the Heavy Fermion CePtZn
In rare-earth containing metals, there is a strong competition between the tendency of these systems to magnetically order or form a superconducting state, mirroring in many... -
Na ion diffusion in clays for nuclear waste management
Clays are porous materials and planned to be used as barrier material in radioactive waste repositories. In this context understanding of water and solute diffusion on different... -
Time reversal symmetry breaking study of the superconductors YRuB2 and LuRuB2
In this proposal we suggest an investigation of the time reversal symmetry breaking in the superconducting compounds YRuB2 and LuRuB2 with orthorhombic structure (space group... -
Spin Dynamics in the isotopically enriched spin ice 162Dy2Ti2O7
In an attempt to study the dynamics of Dy2Ti2O7 measured using muons we have made a sample of 162Dy2Ti2O7 where the 161 and 164 isotopes are reduced to a minimum (max. 0.6% of... -
Short range magnetic order in the compositionally modulated Bi2Cr4/3Ni2/3O6 p...
It is particularly challenging to synthesize a novel multiferroic material as it seems that the mechanisms that allow ferromagnets and ferroelectrics to work are mutually... -
A study of hole injection efficiency for a model conjugated bilayer system
Polymer-based electronics have attracted huge interest due to their wide applicability to light emitting diodes, field effect transistors and photovoltaics. The aim of our... -
Anhysteretic superelastic behaviour in Shape Memory alloys at transcritical t...
Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs) are a special kind of active materials in which the martensitic transformation (MT) is the basis of the peculiar superelastic, and shape memory... -
Probing the spin dynamics in the pseudo-quaternary Y1-xErxNi2B2C compounds
Our uSR measurements on superconducting Y1-xErxNi2B2C shows a slowing of the Er spin dynamics upon cooling to 2.5 K, but the depolarisation rate does not critically diverge and... -
µSR investigation of NaxLi12-xC60
An economy based on hydrogen as an energy carrier is one of the most promising solutions against the greenhouse effect problem, due to the large amount of energy produced by the... -
Muon probes of hydrogen-bond network in supercooled water
Muon diamagnetic fraction in liquid water is known to decrease with decreasing temperature probably because its formation mechanism results from the structural alternation and...
