Understanding the decomposition of ammonia by lithium-calcium imide
Among light metal amide-imide catalysts for ammonia decomposition, lithium-calcium imide is the most promising candidate for practical application. Ex situ diffraction data... -
The magnon density of states in NiPS3
NiPS3 is an example of a low-dimensional magnetic system. It is potentially a 'model' magnet, meaning that it might be a good material to search for new phenomena that have been... -
Phase transitions in Sr-doped multiferroic bismuth ferrite
Bismuth ferrite, BiFeO3, is a much-studied ceramic showing both dielectric and magnetic ordering at relatively high temperatures. In order to improve its properties there has... -

Evaluation of inelasticity effects in diffraction
For total diffraction measurements using neutrons it is important to correct the data for inelasticity effects, especially for samples containing light atoms. Conventionally... -
Continued studies of the high temperature structural behaviour of Ca2Mn3O8
We recently synthesised a new layered manganes oxide with a frustrated connectivity of Mn4+ ions. Variable temperature studies demonstrated a deviation from linearity at... -
Investigating the Influence of Polymer Properties on Cyclic Peptide-Polymer C...
Cyclic peptides with alternating side chain stereochemistry are capable of self-assembling into long nanotubes (CPNTs). The conjugation of polymers to these peptides renders the... -
Understanding the effect of compaction forming on the structure and performan...
A vast amount of work has been conducted on understanding metal organic frameworks (MOFs) in their powder form. However, for use in industrial processes, powders will need to be... -
A determination of CO2 molecule sites for CO2 adsorbed K2x/3Cu(Fe(CN)6)2/3 wi...
Prussian blue analogues (PBAs) have attracted broad attention for various applications because they are relatively cheap, environmentally friendly and can easily be scaled-up.... -
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... -
Variable temperature studies of x = 0.10, 0.25, 0.50 and 0.75, Bi1-xNaxFe1-xN...
Multiferroic materials exhibiting at least two ferroic orders are the subject of extensive research due to many potential technological applications. Bismuth ferrite (BFO) is by... -
Improper ferroelectricity in hexagonal tungsten bronzes
Ferroelectrics are an important class of materials in modern electronics. Their application range from simple capacitors to ultrasonics transducers and sensors to memory... -
Diffraction Resistance Measurements of a Chalcopyrite
During the course of a PhD project funded by CCLRC's CMPC, we have developed a cell that allows electrical transport property measurements to be made simultaneously with the... -
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... -
Crystal structure and thermal expansion of acetylene (C2D2)
Acetylene is produced in great abundance in the solar system wherever carbonaceous solids are exposed to energetic radiation. It has been the subject of several studies,... -
High frequency spin-fluctuations is single crystal beta-Mn(Co)
beta-Mn metal is a good example of metal close to a magnetic/non-magnetic instability. It doesn't order magnetically at any temperature, and yet has a large Somerfeld constant,... -
Magnetic Excitations in 50% Cu substituted BaFe2-xCuxAs2
We find unusual antiferromagnetic order in Cu heavily overdoped BaFeCuAs2 with the order wave vector at (0.5 0.5 1). This anitiferromagnetic signal cannot come from the parent... -
Does elastic twinning play a role in the thermal expansion behaviour of polyc...
We request two days of beam-time on POLARIS to obtain high resolution measurements of the thermal expansion of dolomite [CaMg(CO3)2]. The experiment forms part of a larger... -
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... -
Investigation of the low temperature phases of SrSnO3
The present proposal is to examine the low temperature structural properties of SrSnO3 using the HRPD. This work aims to examine the structural basis for the unusual low...
