High pressure structural study of BaD2
Simple hydrides are of scientific interest due to their suitability for storage of hydrogen in the solid state. These materials also display a wealth of interesting physics,... -
Investigation of glycolide-h4 and d4 at high pressure.
This proposal seeks to investigate the polymorphism and polymerisation of glycolide. Glycolide is a six-memebered ring structure that polymerises into poly(glycolic acid) and is... -
High-Pressure Investigation of the Ferroelectric ND4IO3
We propose a high-pressure neutron powder diffraction study of the crystal structure of deuterated ammonium iodate, ND4IO3, which is known to undergo a ferroelectric phase... -
Understanding the Pressure Response in Amines: Weak hydrogen-bonding vs Non-b...
Methylamines are an ideal chemical system to study in order to understand the effects of steric bulk and competing non-bonding interactions on hydrogen bonding at the networks... -

A High-Pressure investigation on 3,4,5-Trinitropyrazole
This proposal will explore the effect of elevated pressure on the 3,4,5-Trinitropyrazole (TNP). TNP releases a large amount of dinitrogen gas as a detonation product which is... -
Exploring the High-Pressure Phase Diagram of the Spin Liquid Candidate TbInO3
Spin liquids are an exotic state of matter that hold relevance to future quantum technologies, suchas quantum computing. Recently, there has been a flurry of activity in the... -
Investigation of caprolactam-d11 at high pressure
High pressure has shown to be a powerful tool for the exploration of the organic solid state. In particular one is able to perform polymerisation reactions on solid materials by... -
Local structure studies in the pressure-induced order-disorder phase transiti...
BaTiO3 is often thought of as the classic example of a ferroelectric material, with a well-defined, widely-taught phase diagram. However, the nature of the ferroelectric phase... -
FePS3 magnetic and crystal structure under pressure
We have metallised the two-dimensional honeycomb anti-ferromagnet FePS3 at 5.5 GPa. The mechanisms for metallisation, as well as the physical properties of the metallic state,... -
High-Resolution High-Pressure Study of the Elpasolite Perovskite La2NiMnO6
This proposal sets out to investigate the high pressure behaviour of the double perovskitematerial with the chemical formula La2NiMnO6. The properties of this and related... -
Following the formation of Ho2Ge2O7 pyrochlore using high-pressure neutron di...
When synthesised at high pressure and temperature, holmium germanate adopts the pyrochlore structure. Because of its geometry, materials with this structure often have exotic... -
High Pressure Driven Spin States in LaCoO3
This proposal is concerned with determining variations in the high pressure structure of LaCoO3 and observing changes within this as the material undergoes some well... -
High-Pressure Structural Behaviour of 2,2,2-trifluoro-ethanol
In the mono-alcohols (ROH) there is a competition between the packing requirements of the R-group and the demand for the hydroxyl groups to be sufficiently close for hydrogen... -
Unravelling the temperature-pressure phase diagram for the multiferroic, BiFeO3
Bismuth ferrite is arguably the most widely studied multiferroic material due to room temperature magnetic and ferroelectric ordering. However, despite extensive research the... -
High Pressure Thermoelastic Properties of Thermoelectric PbSe
We propose to study the effect of pressure and temperature on the crystal structure and the elasticproperties of lead selenide, an important material for conversion of waste... -
IINS measurements on the terminating protons of the basic structural units of...
More than 6 million tonnes of carbon black per year are produced worldwide. The major part is used as reinforcing filler material in tyres and mechanical rubber goods. For... -
Modelling Intermolecular Interactions and Thermodynamic Properties of Naphtha...
Equations of state (EoSs) show how the thermodynamic variables of temperature, pressure and volume are inter-related. The ideal gas law, PV = nRT, is an example of an EoS which... -
Towards the Calibration of Chemical Pressure
The application of hydrostatic pressure allows the precise tuning of atomic separations, which control electronic structure and virtually all the interatomic interactions that... -
The role of step-size on the pressure phase diagram of BiFeO3
bismuth ferrite (BFO) remains the most studied multiferroic as a result of room temperature electric and magnetic ordering. However, real world applications are limited due to...
