We intend to use neutron diffraction and x-ray diffraction to investigate the structure of potassium and barium iron phosphate glasses, which are potential candidate systems for... -
Hydrogen activation by non-metal catalysts. IINS studies of Frustrated Lewis ...
Hydrogenation has played a crucial role in energy related applications ranging from the production of ammonia from N2 to the conversion of coal to liquid fuels. Until recently,... -
Ionic disorder studies of lightweight hydrides by VESUVIO
We ask for 8 days on VESUVIO to study the momentum distribution of LiBH4, Li2NH and Li1+xNH2-x as a function of temperature from 10K-653K (depending on sample). Li2NH and... -
Aggregation behaviour of aqueous hairy rod conjugated polyelectrolyte/surfact...
Small angle neutron scattering (SANS) will be used to characterise the structures of aggregates formed between the anionic conjugated polyelectrolyte... -
In situ deformation and transformation studies of zirconia dental ceramic
Yttria-stabilised polycrystalline zirconia ceramics (Y-TZP¿s) possess a unique combination of properties that make them attractive for dental prosthetic applications: strength,... -
SANS studies of mixed phsopholipid:sterol vesicles and their interaction with...
The increasing incidence of pathogenic fungi resistant to treatment with amphotericin B (AmB) has created a demand for novel anti-fungal agents that can circumvent the... -
Nanoemulsions for dermatological drug delivery
Nanoemulsions have considerable potential for dermatological drug delivery. Small angle neutron scattering in combination with contrast variation will be used to characterize... -
INS studies of improved hydrogen release in nanostructured ammonia borane fibres
Increasing the density of hydrogen storage is critical for the commercial introduction of hydrogen vehicles. Our nanostructured electrospun ammonia borane (AB)-polystyrene (PS)... -

Local structure studies of mellilite oxide ion conductors
The development of new interstitial oxide conductors with less restrictive structural constraintsrequires understanding of the mechanisms allowing both incorporation and... -
MuSR studies of the electronic properties of hyperexpanded fullerides close t...
The fcc polymorph of the hyperexpanded fulleride Cs3C60 can be driven to a bulk suprconducting state without symmetry change by the application of pressure. Its Tc passes... -
Copy of: Abiogenic origin of methane: a neutron diffraction study
It has recently be demonstrated, through diamond-anvil cell experiments, that it may be possible for methane to be formed within the inner Earth through transformation reactions... -
Structural studies of protein at the oil-water interface
We would like to measure the adsorption isotherm for protein, milk B-casein using neutron reflectometery at the oil-water interface. These measurements will be carried out for... -
muSR studies of AF/SC/normal phase interplays in La2-xSrxCuO4 and Ba(Fe,Ni)2As2
We propose muSR studies on superfluid density in the overdoped La2-xSrxCuO4 (LSCO). The Hayden group (Bristol) has been growing high-quality LSCO single crystals, and performed... -
Neutron scattering and muSR studies of magnetic phenomena in YFe2Al10: case s...
In strongly correlated electron systems, the proximity to magnetic ordering has been of special interest. Magnetism in this class of systems is often suppressed by the Kondo... -
Inelastic neutron scattering and musr studies of the high-distorted double pe...
The heat capacity and neutron powder diffraction measurements of the double perovskites La2NaB′O6 (B = Ru5+, Os5+) with S=3/2 on the B¿ reveal an incommensurate magnetic... -
MuSR studies of the magnetic properties of hyperexpanded fullerides close to ...
We have been recently successful in isolating the fcc polymorph of the key hyperexpanded fulleride Cs3C60 - this phase can be driven to a bulk suprconducting state without... -
Ultra-rapid microwave materials synthesis in-situ; a microwave reactor for ti...
Microwave techniques are of interest to the materials chemistry community as they allow access to new metastable materials, and offer synthetic routes that are considerably... -
Nucleid Acids in Solution
The aim of the experiment is investigate some nucleid acids to provide us with information about the size and shape when is dispersed in a solvent, so in a future studies to be...
