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 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... -
Spontaneous strain and framework distortion in hybrid Prussian blue analogues
The metal-organic Prussian blue analogues (HIm)2K[M(CN)6], where HIm is the imidazolium cation and M = Fe or Co, have switchable dielectric constants, since the imidazolium ions... -
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... -
Thermoelastic properties of ammonium sulfate, (ND4)2SO4, and the P-T dependen...
Ammonium sulfate exhibits a first-order phase transition upon cooling through ~ 224 K at room pressure, from a paraelectric to a ferroelectric crysta. There are outstanding... -
Low-temperature structural phase transitions in CuSeO4·5D2O and CuBeF4·5D2O
The isostructural family of compounds that includes the familiar copper sulfate pentahydrate and the two less familiar title materials, has for decades been a model for studying... -
Magnetic excitation spectrum of a potential spin liquid candidate
PbCuTe2O6 consists of a 3-dimensional arrangement of spin-1/2 Cu ions. There are 3 potentially strong interactions, the first neighbor interaction couples the magnetic ions into... -
Crystal symmetry change at the magnetic transition in MnB and FeB compounds p...
The "magnetocaloric effect" (MCE) is based on the entropy difference encountered when themagnetic state of a material is changed and it can be used for refrigeration. However,... -
Hydrogen production from ammonia using lithium imide: an isotope study
We have recently discovered that light metal amides and imides are excellent cattalysts for the decomposition of ammonia. We request 3 days on POLARIS to perform in situ neutron... -

This is a joint ISIS/DLS proposal Quasi-elastic neutron scattering (QENS) and SR-Infrared microspectroscopy (SR-IRMS) are coupled to probe the impact of a Pd(II) anticancer... -
H/D isotope effect on enantiomers: the case of Alanine
In the current description of any molecular system based on the Schrodinger equation with a Hamiltonian accounting only for the electromagnetic forces, the structural properties... -
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 =... -
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... -
Thermal equations of state for kyanite, andalusite and sillimanite
The three Al-silicate polymorphs, kyanite, andalusite and sillimanite, are well-known geological markers used to determine the extent of P- and T-induced metamorphism...
