At ambient pressure and temperature TiCl4 is a fuming yellow liquid. On cooling it forma a solid composed of essentially isolated tetrahedral molecules; the same structure is...

The melilite family are new xoide ion conductors with high mobility at low temperatures. Average structures suggest that the ability of the structure to accomodate high levels...

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...

Previous ALC measurements of the Fe2(pdt)(CO)4(PMe3)2 and [Fe2(pdt)(CO)4(CN)2]2- (referred to as 1 and 2) model hydrogenase subsites have yielded some intriguing results (RB...

Tellurite glasses exhibit strong non-linear properties which are related to the asymmetric environment of the Te atom. The non-linear optical effects are strongest when the Te...

Titanium silicates are important for a number of applications such as ultra low expansion glasses, anti-reflective thin film coatings and catalytic materials. Titanium silicates...

This proposal is aimed at investigating the crystallographic texture evolution that occurs during hot forging of two-phase alpha/beta titanium alloy Ti-64, widely used in...

Rutile titanium dioxide is one of the most relevant oxide materials, where the impurity physics of hydrogen has recently been devoted much attention. Existing ab-initio...

The proposal addresses the average structures of new lead-free ferroelectrics, low-temperature ionic conductors and mixed conductors which are candidate solid oxide fuel cell...

Bismuth based perovskites have been shown display many interesting properties. The field of A site bismuth perovskites gained renewed vigour due to the recent demonstration of...

Bulk and nanoparticulate forms of various phases of titania (anatase, rutile, TiO2-B) act as hosts for Li intercalation but the nanoscale TiO2 can store significantly more Li...

This proposal is part of a lithium ion battery research project for finding new anode materials. The redox couples Ti4+/Ti3+ and Nb5+/Nb4+ in titanium and niobium oxides show a...

This experiment aims at studying the magnetic behaviour of the molecular square complex {[Fe{B(pz)_4}(CN)_3]_2[Co(bik)_2]_2}(ClO_4)_2 . 3H_2O [B(pz)_4 = tetrapyrazolylborate,...

The drive for increasing energy efficiency and reducing greenhouse gas emissions has garnered increasing support for the use of fuel cell technology, which offers the potential...

Summary: Titanium implants are surgically important and require a hydrophilic polymer coating to prevent biofouling in situ. Bioadhesive proteins can be covalently tethered to...

The aim of this experiment is to measure the intergranular strain evolution in two types of single phase titanium alloys. While commercially pure titanium (CP-Ti) is known to...

BaTiO3 is the prototypical ferroelectic perovskite and has been well studied for over 60 years. The standard structural picture is that it is cubic and paraelectric at high...

Major elements (Si, Ti, Al, Fe, Mn, Mg, Ca, Na, K, P) were measured with conventional XRF (RIGAKU RIX2000 X-ray fluorescence spectrometer at the Department of Geosciences at...
