We propose to study a range of novel fluorine-containing bioactive glasses with potential applications in dentistry and orthopaedics. At present little is known about the atomic...

We will study the origins of the solubility of problematic anionic species (sulphate and chloride) in borosilicate glasses representative of real-world radioactive waste...

Gallium oxide is an apparently simple oxide that has been reported to exist as at least 5 polymorphs all of which are stable at room temperature. Structural models, however, for...

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...

GeO2-rich potassium borogermanate glasses are topologically complex, in that [BOn] (n = 3, 4) and [GeOn] (n = 4, 5, 6) polyhedra may all coexist. We wish to determine average...

BaB4O7 glass crystallises to different polymorphs of the same composition depending on the prior thermal history of the glass and the surface area of the sample. This indicates...

Molybdenum containing glasses have many potential applications. However, there is little information available on the structural role of molybdenum in glasses, and the limited...

Alkali borogermanate glasses are topologically complex, in that [BOn] (n = 3, 4)and [GeOn] (n = 4, 5, 6) polyhedra may all coexist. Equilibrium between these structural units...
