Intercalation of Ciprofloxacin into Lithium - Fluorohectorite at acid and bas...
Using quasielastic neutron scattering (QENS) we will investigate the intercalation of Ciprofloxacin (CIPRO) into the synthetic clay Lithium Fluorohectorite (LiFh) to... -
Exploration of the microscopic origins of thermal anomalies observed in molec...
It is a well established fact that several molecular liquids experiences a series of thermal anomalies as measured by microscopic and macroscopic techniques. A remarkable case... -
In-situ neutron powder diffraction studies of non-stoichiometry in Na battery...
We request 3 days on POLARIS to study the detailed crystal structure of a sodium battery cathode material that is currently under consideration for use in commercial sodium... -

The crystal structure of multiferroic CuO
Despite its simple chemical formula, cupric oxide (CuO) has a surprisingly complex magnetic behaviour which remains only partly understood. Interest in CuO has recently... -
Thermodynamic Control of Isotopic Polymorphism
Co-crystals of 4-methylpyridine and pentachlorophenol (MP-PCP) exhibit the very unusual property of isotopic polymorphism, formation of different phases by samples differing... -
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... -
Microstructural orientation mapping with a neutron beam
We propose to develop the means to measure the orientations, phases and strains of individual crystal grains within a polycrystal using neutrons. Such measurements have... -

The icy-moon analogue of MgSiO3-perovskite: MgSO4.9H2O a high-pressure study
Mg-sulfate 11-hydrate (meridianiite) is decomposed by pressure to form Mg-sulfate 9-hydrate + ice, a process that will occur in the mantles of large icy planetary bodies and... -
In situ diffraction studies of cathode materials for Li ion batteries
Li-ion batteries are interesting because they offer high power and, as a consequence, they are preferred to aqueous-based batteries for traction applications e.g. hybrid... -
Ammonia synthesis using lithium hydride-metal nitride composites: an in situ ...
The development of more active catalysts for the production of ammonia will have a worldwide impact on the energy cost of producing fertiliser. Composites of lithium hydride and... -
Dynamics of an antimicrobial oligopeptide
Abstract. In experiments at LLB and ILL we have measured low-resolution INS spectra and elastic scans for H2O- and D2O-hydrated samples of a 15-residue oligopeptide between 30... -
Sensing Sulphur Dioxide in Robust Porous MOF Materials via Simultaneous Micro...
We seek to develop new materials for sensing and removal of toxic gases (esp., SO2) and request 2 days on POLARIS to study the structural binding details and dielectric data... -
The possibility of strongly ferromagnetic austenite in a stainless steel
It is generally accepted that austenitic steels (fcc) show no ferromagnetic signature. However, thermomagnetic measurements suggest an unexpected ferromagnetic transition (Tc =... -
The use of surfactant structure to control self-assembly induced by the addit...
This proposal is part of a major EPSRC (EP/GR065705)/Unilever funded programme to develop and control the spontaneous formation of surfactant multilayer structures at... -
Order/disorder and phase transitions in the OLED material Alq3
We propose to measure the pair distribution function of the organic light emitting material Alq3 focussing on the structure of one disordered crystalline phase and its... -
Quantum spin excitations of Cr-jarosite
Within the field of condensed matter physics, the study of frustrated antiferromagnets is at the forefront of current research. In frustrated antiferromagnets, the geometry of... -
Spatial, Chemical, and Temporal Resolution of Platinum-Catalysed Benzene Conv...
This proposal aims to study the potential for neutron diffraction to offer spatially-, chemically-, and temporally-resolved information on a dynamic system, in this case the... -
Structural distortions and partial order in the selenate and chromate analogu...
The mineral mirabilite (di-sodium sulfate decahydrate) has been extensively studied by X-ray and neutron powder and single-crystal diffraction methods. The structure contains an...
