The First Structural Characterisation of some Gallium Oxide Polymorphs
We propose to make the first detailed structural study of some polymorphs of gallium oxide that remain poorly characterised and yet have applications in catalysis and are used... -
Intrinsic defect structures in zinc oxide
Zinc oxide is an important semiconductor, but its use in a wide range of applications is limited by the difficulty in doping p-type. This is believed to be related to the nature... -
Anion disorder in Ti pyrochlores as a precursor in the transition to fluorite
The aim of this work is to understand the nature of anion disordering in pyrochlore oxides and to establish what, if any, correlations exist between the anion position, disorder... -
