Investigation of the effect of increased spin-orbit coupling on the performan...
We wish to perform PNR measurements on organic spin valve devices to assess the effect on the device performances of the spin relaxation mechanisms related to spin-orbit... -
Structural studies of surfactants at the metal-aqueous interface
This proposal relates to the structural studies of cationic surfactant adsorption on an iron oxide metal surface. The driving force for the adsorption of cationic surfactants to... -
The Interactions of Blood Components with Models of the Gram Negative Bacteri...
One of the major challenges in the fight against antimicrobial resistance is the development of antimicrobial compounds that selectively disrupt bacterial membranes and leave... -
Investigating artificial multiferroic structures using polarised neutron refl...
Multiferroic systems have more than one functionality, i.e. ferromagnetism, ferroelectricity, ferroelasticity and ferrotoroidicity. In nature there are few materials that... -
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... -
Tuning the Magnetic Properties of γ-Fe2O3 Fe3O4 Thin Films for Atom Tr...
In this work we will investigate how the magnetic properties of nanometer thick iron-oxide films can be manipulated by heating them in air. Our preliminary results indicate that... -
Surfactants and additives at the metal-oil interface
The lubrication of surfaces by oils is a key aspect of many academic and industrial problems with significant financial implications. In this experiment we would like to extend... -
Substrate-dependent structure of thin hydrogel films
Hydrogels are water-rich polymer networks made from natural or synthetic polymers, which are widely used in biomaterials, medicine and antifouling. We have developed PEG-based... -
Self-Assembled Atmospheric Fatty Acid Aerosol Proxies: Spin-Coated Thin Film ...
We propose a simultaneous neutron reflectometry (NR)/attenuated total reflection (ATR) infra-red spectroscopy experiment on spin-coated thin films of self-assembled fatty acids... -
Magnetic contrast reflectometry to resolve transmembrane potential effects on...
The division of bacteria is controlled by the binding of proteins to the inner of the two lipid bilayer membranes that separates the inside of the cell from the outside world.... -
Polarised Neutron Reflectometry from Frustrated Nanomagnet Arrays
We propose to study off-specular polarised neutron reflectivity from an array of CoFeB nanostructures. Many groups use Permalloy to form these types of nanostructures, however,... -
Interface magnetism study of Fe/GaSb epitaxial structures
We propose to study the magnetic moment and the magnetic layer profile in order to rule out the presence of magnetic dead layers at the interface in thin Fe films grown... -
Using neutron reflectivity to understand the structural basis for the rheolog...

Neutron reflectivity investigation of hydrogen in barrier oxide-coated Duplex...
The need for structural materials that can resist hydrogen assisted degradation becomes critical for the continuation of the development of the hydrogen economy. Hydrogen... -
Investigation of the interfacial spin texture in ferromagnetically doped topo...
We propose to make use of neutron wave guiding effects to enhance interfacial sensitivity and study the spin texture of individual interfaces between ferromagnetically doped... -
