Investigation of ambient temperature polarity and magnetism in the ternary so...
Pb-based materials such as PbZrxTi1-xO3 (PZT) are widely used as transducers, actuators and sensors in a range of modern technologies due to their excellent piezoelectric and... -
Sensing SO2 in Robust Porous MOF Materials via Simultaneous Microwave Dielect...
We seek to develop new MOFs for sensing and removal of toxic gases (e.g., SO2) and request 4 days on POLARIS to study the structural binding details and dielectric data... -
How does a catalyst promoter affect the degree of hydrogen retention of iron-...
We have recently used INS to determine how a hydrogen pre-treatment stage of an iron based Fischer-Tropsch catalyst may modify catalytic performance. That work established how... -
Simltaneous dielectric spectroscopy and neutron diffraction
We have constructed a novel microwave frequency resonator that can sit within the GEM and POLARIS diffractometers and will allow us to simultaneously collect diffraction and... -
Low temperature phases of WO3 a reinvestigation
WO3 is an important technological material with wide usage in gas-sensing devices but its low temperature phases are still mysterious. There are conflicting reports in the... -
Formation and ammonia decomposition behaviour of lithium nitride hydride
Ammonia is seen as a key part of the transition to a sustainable energy economy, but needs decomposition catalysts to release its stored hydrogen. Lithium nitride-hydride... -
Magnetic order and magnetoelectric coupling in InFe2.5Sn0.5O6
Research to develop single phase materials that are polar and ferromagnetic at room temperature is driven by the hope of switching ferroelectric order with an applied electric... -
Unravelling Structural Complexity within a Family of Frustrated S = ½ Kagome ...
Quantum spin liquids (QSLs) are exotic states of matter in which magnetic frustration and strong quantum fluctuations destroy long-range magnetic order. Here, we propose to... -

Magnetic and Quadrupolar Excitations in 5d based Double Perovskites Ba2BOsO6 ...
Like the well known perovskites, the double perovskites A2BB'O6 form an enormous family of compounds exhibiting a wealth of phenomena ranging from magnetic long range order,... -
Characterising the amorphicity and porosity of ice aggregates in planet-formi...
With the discovery of almost 3000 exo-planets it is clear that planet formation is a by-product of star formation, yet in the micron ? cm size range, where relative velocities... -
CuH: a (nearly) 200 year old problem SANDALS
Copper (I) hydride, CuH, is unique amongst the binary metal hydrides in that it can be synthesised, at room temperature, in aqueous solution. In recent years CuH generated in... -
Investigation of hydrogen dynamics on pure and metal cluster decorated metal ...
Metal oxides(MO) are widely used in technological applications especially for catalysts and supports for catalysts. We propose to use the inelastic response of H2 adsorbed on... -
In-situ reaction of lithium amide or imide with manganese(IV) oxide
We request 3 days beam time on POLARIS for in-situ powder diffraction studies of the reactions of lithium amide or lithium imide with manganese(IV) oxide under flowing argon or... -
Fine structure of a confined quantum translator-rotator probed with high-reso...
A process known as molecular surgery enables the synthesis of the fullerene C60 enclosing a small molecule such as H2, H2O, HF and CH4. The caged molecules in these molecular... -
High resolution neutron diffraction study to investigate temperature dependen...
The crystal structure of the intermetallic PrFe2Al8 consists of a network of Al which forms quasi cage-like structure where the Pr and the Fe form chains of atoms along the... -
High-Energy dynamics and search for a continuum in CaFe2O4
We propose to investigate the high-energy (above 10 meV) excitations using either the MERLIN or MAPS chopper instruments. CaFe2O4 is interesting for several reasons. First, it... -
Search for structural modulation lifting the orbital degeneracy in triangular...
This proposal is part of our research programme on spin and orbital order in frustrated systems. AgNiO2 has a layered crystal structure with Jahn-Teller active Ni3+ ions forming...
