Diffusion of molecular hydrogen into pre-formed THF clathrate hydrate
The proposing team has a well established experience in the use of neutron scattering on samples containing molecular hydrogen, and has recently studied some aspects of the... -
Crystal and magnetic structures of the anionogenic ferromagnet Ba0.85K0.15O2
We propose to use GEM to study the evolution of both the crystal and magnetic structures of Ba0.85K0.15O2 between room temperature and 2 K. Ba0.85K0.15O2 is a novel phase not... -
Oxygen Positional Disorder in the "Empty" Tetragonal Tungsten Bronze Ba4La0.6...
Ferroelectric tetragonal tungsten bronze oxides (TTBs) have been extensively studied for their application dielectric and non-linear optical devices. TTBs often exhibit... -
Texture memory and variant selection for steel and titanium and zirconium alloys
The proposed experiment will focus on determining the level of texture memory and variant selection on both heating and cooling for steel and titanium and zirconium alloys with... -
Neutron Diffraction Studies of Iron Silicate Glasses with Alkali Ion Inclusions
The objective of this study is to examine the local structure of a set of Iron Silicate glasses containing a single alkali metal in order to understand the correlation of... -
Understanding the Earth's Core-Mantle Boundary: Crystal and Magnetic Structur...
The physical properties of the post-perovskite phase of MgSiO3 control the dynamics of the lower thermal boundary layer of the Earth¿s mantle, but many of these properties... -
Investigating the catalytic hydrogenation of palladium modified N-doped mesop...
The nitrogen doped mesoporous carbon microsphere (N-MCM) with palladium nanoparticle (Pd/N-MCM) has been investigated for its excellent catalytic activity for... -
Rosseinsky programme access GEM
The proposal develops recent observations on spin-lattice coupling in incommensurate materials (objective - measure influence of applied field on evolution of structural... -
Local structure study of multiferroic region of cupric(II) oxide
Cupric(II) oxide (CuO) has recently found to be both antiferromagnetic and ferroelectric in temperature region from 213 K to 230 K. This high temperature multiferroic material... -
Structure and phase transitions of Sr3Ru2O7
Sr3Ru2O7 is a layered Ruddlesden-Popper perovskite which displays intriguing behaviour at low temperatures and high magnetic field. It can be tuned close to a quantum critical... -
Structural distortions and partial order in the selenate and chromate analogu...
The mineral mirabilite (di-sodium sulfate decahydrate) has been extensively studied by X-ray and neutron powder and single-crystal diffraction methods. The structure contains an... -
Critical evidence for/against FLPs in metal oxides: Does H2 split on In2O3 Na...
The critical evidence for/against FLPs in metal oxides is to establish wheter an adsorbed H2 molecule becomes dissociated across adjacent In and O sites on the surface. To probe... -
Giant magnetostriction in CoMnSi: a tricritical metamagnet with large changes...
For several years, we have been studying the thermodynamics of the metamagnetic phase transition in CoMnSi and substituted versions. Our motivation has been that the... -
Catalysis in Hydrogen-Bond Rich Porous Organic Materials
Hydrogen bonding (H-bonding) interactions are essential in biological and chemical processes, particularly in reactions catalysed by enzymes and small-molecule catalysts.... -
Ionic disorder studies of lightweight hydrides by VESUVIO
We ask for 8 days on VESUVIO to study the momentum distribution of LiBH4, Li2NH and Li1+xNH2-x as a function of temperature from 10K-653K (depending on sample). Li2NH and... -
Understanding the molecular origin of cononsolvency
The term cononsolvency has been used to describe a situation in which a polymer is less soluble in a mixture of two cosolvents than it is in either one of the pure solvents. If... -
Unpicking the signal of partial order from thermal motion in diffuse scatteri...
Orientationally-disordered water molecules in ice adopt a degree of partial order upon cooling, a process that is halted by kinetics at ~100 K in pure ice and ~60 K in KOH-doped... -
Effect of Pressure on the Structure and Dynamics of Titanium Tetrachloride
At ambient pressure TiCl4 forms a molecular solid consisting of isolated TiCl4 molecules (phase-I). At 0.5 GPa this structure undergoes a transition to phase-II, which is... -
