Structure Direction from Electrons in the Presence of the 'Alkalide Option': ...
We request 5 days on SANDALS to investigate the structural effect of expanded metals in the LiNa-MeNH2 system at three different concentrations. The interplay between... -
Relaxor-like dielectric behaviour in stoichiometric Sillenite Bi12SiO20
We request 1 day of beam-time on POLARIS to collect Neutron Diffraction (ND) data on the Sillenite Bi12SiO20 (gamma-Bi2O3) that we have recently discovered to exhibit a... -

Glasses and supercooled liquids in the Se-Cl system
Little is known on the structure and properties of vitreous Se doped with halogens in contrast to group III, IV, V, and VI dopants and also many metal additives. Our Raman... -
Pressure-dependence of the anisotropic exchange interactions in two closely r...
There are no magneto-structural correlations for clusters containing transition metal ions with non-zero orbital angular momentum in the ground state. Octahedrally coordinated... -
Reactivity studies of CeO2 and metal supported CeO2 materials.
Cerium dioxide is widely used as carrier on which noble metals are dispersed to act as catalysts for a range of reactions. One of the most widely used applications of this... -
Structural Properties of Hydrogenated Ca-Intercalated Graphite Compounds
The recent discovery of superconductivity in Ca-intercalated graphite (C6Ca) has refocused considerable interest onto graphite intercalated compounds (GICs). We would like to... -
Is there electronic nematic order in Fe pnictides?
The concept of an electronic nematic, in which the electronic wavefunctions have different symmetry to the crystal structure, has been proposed to explain several unusual... -
High-temperature diffraction studies to investigate the Li-ion migration path...
We propose to study the crystal structure of the inverse spinel Li3CrV2O8 using variable temperature powder neutron diffraction. By conducting these neutron experiments, we will... -
