Kinetics of Molecular Intercalation into Graphite Oxide
The search for new porous materials is increasingly be driven by socio-economic pressure to diversify our energy supply and minimize environmental impact. Carbon-based... -
What is the Room Temperature Structure of NaTaO3?
The current proposal seeks to establish the origin of t non-perovskite-like peak splitting observed in HRPD data for NaTaO3. It is our hypothesis that this is a result of the... -

Magnetic excitations in square lattice 2D Heisenberg Antiferromagnet Sr3Fe2O6.5
Strontium iron oxides belonging to the RP series Srn+1FenO3n+1 (n = 1, 2, ..,1) may offer unique insights into the differences between the magnetic properties of the... -
Spin excitations in La2CoO4
We will use MAPS to measure the complete spin excitation spectrum of the quasi-two-dimensional S=3/2 antiferromagnet La2CoO4. The measurement is motivated by recent observations... -
Exploring Structural and Spin Orders in the Quantum Spin Liquid Candidate Znx...
Quantum spin liquids (QSLs) are intriguing states of matter in which magnetic frustration and strong quantum fluctuations prevent classical long-range magnetic order. To date,... -
Structures and magnetism of chemical and electrochemical deintercalates of la...
We propose to use POLARIS to perform two related experiments. Firstly we will investigate the structures and compositions of derivatives of some layered Mn/Cu oxysulfides which... -
Polycarbonate and tetramethyl bisphenol A polycarbonate
The miscibility of polycarbonates (PC) with polystyrene (PS) appears to be closely related to chain dynamics. Among all polycarbonates, tetramethyl bisphenol-A polycarbonate... -
Crystal structures of Na2MoO4.10H2O, Na2WO4.10H2O and Na2MnO4.10H2O.
Chemical substitution is a valuable technique for probing the behaviour of materials since this exerts a stress comparable in many respects to changes in pressure or... -
The effect of redox on the substitution mechanism of Ti in meteoritic hibonite
We request 3 days of beam-time on HRPD to identify the substitution mechanism of Ti3+ and Ti4+ in synthetic hibonites [CaAl12O19]. The experiment forms part of a larger... -
Electronically-driven structural transition in Ti-doped Ca3Ru2O7
The purpose of the experiment is to determine the effect of titanium doping on the structural and magnetic transitions of Ca3Ru2O7. The pure material undergoes a Néel transition... -
Configurational and displacive disorder in the cubic NTE material Cd(CN)2
Cubic cadmium(II) cyanide shows the most pronounced isotropic NTE effect known, with behaviour more than twice as extreme as that of better known materials such as ZrW2O8. This... -
The role of Disorder in Phase Transitions in some manganese Perovskites
The aim of this work is to understand the origin of the difference in the behaviour between the two doped manganites Sr0.65Pr0.35MnO3 and Sr0.70Ce0.30MnO3. The hypothesis we... -
Long-range cationic ordering in metal-organic perovskite solid solutions
The structure of the metal guanadinium formates is analogous to perovskite; the Cu compound is of particular interest as a potential multiferroic. We have recently demonstrated... -

Investigations of amorphous pharmaceutical materials produced from different ...
Pharmaceuticals are usually formulated in the crystalline state for obvious reasons of stability. They may also exist in a disordered and less cohesive state i.e. amorphous... -
Phase Separation in NaTaO3. Can it be controlled by pressure?
The present proposal seeks to establish the pressure dependence of the Pbnm-Cmcm transition in NaTaO3 and some doped variants thereof. It aims to understand the understand the... -
Structure, thermal expansion and vibrational properties of ammonium bicarbona...
Ammonium carbonates, sensu lato, have relevance to carbon capture schemes and as potential hydrogen storage materials. These compounds occur on Earth as minerals and, since... -
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... -
Magnetic Excitations in Chromium
Chromium is unique amongst the d-band elemental metals in that it has a spin density wave ground state. The spin density wave is caused by Fermi surface nesting between electron...
