Commissioning of a new continuously-loaded high-pressure piston-cylinder cell
We request two days on Engin-X to carry out commissioning tests on a pair of new piston-cylinder cells and their associated hydraulic press. Although intended primarily for use... -
Simultaneous Microwave Dielectric Spectroscopy and Neutron Diffraction to Mon...
With appropriate storage materials, ammonia has great potential as a fuel. We propose to use a novel piece of equipment, which combines microwave and neutron diffraction... -
The effect of substitutionals and interstitials on ordering in alpha Titanium
The aim of this experiment is to study the structural effect of solid solution strengthening elements on the state of ordering in Titanium (Ti) alloys. A systematic study using... -
In-situ Formation of Fast Lithium Conducting garnets via low temperature sol-...
Increasing global population, global warming and depletion of fossil fuels have resulted in a growing need for better energy storage. Lithium-ion batteries are promising devices... -
Cation coordination and oxide ion vacancy distribution in tetravalent substit...

Understanding the Earth's Core-Mantle Boundary: Crystal and Magnetic Structur...
The physical properties of the post-perovskite phase of MgSiO3 control the dynamics of the lower thermal boundary layer of the Earth¿s mantle, but many of these properties... -
Magnetic hysteresis loops in off-specular scattering
Reflectometry is a technique that is capable of vector magnetometry. By selecting the appropriate valves of Q we could access the different forms of magnetic disorder, either... -
Structural Investigations of Substituted Bornites
Thermoelectric (TE) materials enable the recovery of useful electrical energy from waste heat. High-efficiency requires a high electrical conductivity to be coupled with a high... -

Induction for POLARIS; first in-beam test
An induction furnace has been developed for POLARIS. It has been tested at ISIS for 3 month during which it has passed all safety test required to be tested in beam. Currently... -
Liquid-like behaviour of copper in thermoelectric tetrahedrites
Thermoelectric materials offer opportunities for the recovery of waste heat into useful electrical energy. As part of a nine member consortium, which included 3 SMEs and 2 large... -
Spin dynamics in FeSi
At low temperatures FeSi is a non-magnetic insulator, but becomes a metallic paramagnet for T > 300K. It has been proposed to be a Kondo insulator in which local electron... -
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... -
Probing the Kinetics and Liquid Structure of Toluene Hydrogenation by Pt/MCM-41
In a proof-of-concept beamtime award (RB1220486) we studied the process of platinum-catalysed benzene hydrogenation in the pores of MCM-41 using standard neutron diffraction... -
Mercury sulphide dimorphism in liquids and glasses
A waste majority of crystals exists in several polymorphic forms in different domains of the P,T-diagram. Liquids and glasses also exhibit polyamorphism and the question remains... -
30 T High Magnetic Field Neutron Diffraction on Multi-ferroic TbMnO3
The main target of the proposal is to determine the magnetic phase diagram of multi-ferroic compound TbMnO3 in extremely high magnetic fields around 30 T by using a pulsed... -

Ordering in the La/W substituted bismuth oxide fluorite, Bi7W0.25La0.75O12.375
Materials that show fast oxide ion conduction have potential applications as electrolytes in devices such as solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), gas sensors and gas separation... -
Spin excitations in the superconducting FeTe0.6Se0.4
The FeTe1-xSex series exhibits superconductivity over a broad range of doping. Previously we have made extensive neutron scattering measurements on superconducting x = 0.49 and... -
Cation Ordering and Magnetic Properties of Layered Tellurides
We have prepared a new non-stoichiometric series Cr2-xInxGe2Te6. X-ray diffraction data can be indexed on the rhombohedral unit cell of the end-member (x=0) phase. This adopts a...
