Total scattering study of the interactions of ammonia borane adsorbed in MCM-41
We ask for 4 days on NIMROD to study the atomic- and intermediate-range order of ammonia-borane (AB) intercalated into mesoporous MCM-41. Ammonia borane is one of the leading... -
The unusually low zero-point energy of ice II: Critical benchmarking against ...
Water displays a highly complex phase diagram that is key to a range of critical processes. Using ISIS facilities, we have recently shown that ammonium-fluoride doping leads to... -
Nuclear and magnetic structure determination of Ni-Mn-(In-Sn) Heusler alloys
The aim of the present proposal is to relate the macroscopic magnetic properties with the nuclear and magnetic structure of a series of Ni48Mn36In16-xSnx Heusler alloys. These... -
Crystal electric field in the zigzag pseudospin-1/2 quantum chain compound Pr...
One-dimensional (1D) S = 1/2 spin chains are a subject of long-standing interest, because conventional long-range ordering can be prevented and novel Luttinger-liquid phase may... -
Photoinduced carrier lifetime in silicon: E-field application for carrier sep...
This continuing experiment is proposed based on our previous experiment RB1510208, which we have carried out just recently. The experiment successfully observed the lifetime of... -

The origin of ultra-low thermal conductivity in the thermal barrier material ...
Thermal barrier materials are used in modern turbines to enable them to run above the melting temperature of the turbine blades. However, to go to higher temperatures (and... -
Magnetic fluctuations and ordering in two-dimensional and ferromagnetic Cr2Ge...
The proposal requests time to measure the magnetic fluctuations in a 2 dimensional ferromagnet where the dimensionality is set by weak van der Waals forces. We have previously... -
In-situ hydrogen decomposition studies of ammonia borane and the diammoniate ...
Ammonia borane (AB) is one of the most promising hydrogen storage materials. We have extensively studied the low temperature behaviour of this material This proposal asks for 3... -
Motion of Positively Charged Muonium Centres in Transparent Conducting Oxides
We propose further zero-field muon spin depolarization measurements at temperatures above 300K in order to determine barriers for thermal diffusion of positively charged muonium... -
Inelastic neutron scattering study of exchange disorder in CaFe2O4 and CaFe1....
We would like to investigate polycrystalline CaFe2O4 which undergoes two magnetic transitions to a B phase below 190 K and to a A phase below 160 K. Both phases coexist in a... -
Magnetic Fluctuations in BaCo2As2
ACo2As2 (A=Ba, Sr, Ca) are end members of Co doped Ba-122 family. Understanding the magnetic behavior of these end members can help us to understand the magnetic properties of... -
Unraveling the structural evolution and reactivity of white rust, a key inter...
White rust (WR) is a highly reactive material that acts as a precursor in many chemical processes. It is produced during iron corrosion and has been implicated as a key reactive... -
Structural and Magnetic Characterizations of the New, High Pressure Synthesiz...
After an almost forty year lull in research on multiferroic materials, there has been a resurgence of interest in them. However, it is particularly challenging to synthesize a... -
X-N Charge Density and Isotope Effects in the Low-Barrier N-H N Hydrogen Bond...
Our goal with this project is to gain insight into the bonding mechanisms of low barrier N-H N hydrogen bonds and how increased thermal energy changes the charge density... -
Temperature dependence of the high-energy spin excitations in the newly disco...
Understanding the magnetism in iron pnictides is one of the most important steps to reveal the mechanism of superconductivity in these novel materials. In the extensively... -
Solvation structures of cyclic compounds: the crown ethers
Crown ethers are cyclic molecules formed by joining ether groups into a ring. These compounds have many interesting solution properties, including their ability to bind strongly... -
Magnetic excitations of heavily electron overdoped BaFe0.8Ni1.2As2
We have devoted much efforts to investigating the doping evolution of the magnetic excitations in electron doped BaFe2-xNixAs2 (x=0-0.6). Spin excitations for x=0-0.6 have been... -
Resonant Spin Excitation in Single Crystal of Ba0.8K0.2Fe2As2
We recently observed a resonant spin excitation in Ba0.6K0.4Fe2As2, one of the newly discovered iron arsenide superconductors with Tc=38K, on MERLIN. This demonstrates that the... -
Spin dynamics in a honeycomb antiferromagnet with strong spin-orbit coupling
This proposal is part of our research programme to explore novel ground states stabilized by frustrated interactions in quantum magnets. Here we plan to measure the spin...
