Modulation in Molecular Materials - Variable Temperature
Modulation occurs when there is ordering on two (or more) length scales. When the ratio of these is an integer, the modulation is said to be commensurate, i.e. one ordering is... -
A pair distribution function study of the thermoelectric skutterudites Co1-2x...
Sustainable energy-conversion technologies are important for ensuring our energy supply against declining fossil fuel reserves. Thermoelectric materials offer great potential... -
Universal Quantum-Critical Dynamics of a Two Dimensional Antiferromagnet
We have recently discovered a pressure-induced quantum phase transition (QPT) at 4.3 kbar in the gapped quantum magnet piperazinium hexachlorodicuprate (PHCC) by means of... -
The structure of methane water fluid mixtures at high pressure
We have recently discovered that above 2 GPa in the liquid/fluid forms water and methanebecome miscible in proportions up to 33 mole% of methane. This proposal is for time to... -
Understanding the local structure of Li6PS5X (X = Cl, Br, I) and its impact o...
Cubic Argyrodites, Li6PS5X, are promising candidates for solid state electrolytes and much effort is put in understanding their structure property relation. NMR studies... -

Modifer Interactions in Ternary Tellurite Glasses
We wish to better understand the interaction between alkali and alkaline earth modifiers within the tellurite glass network by measuring neutron correlation functions, T(r)s,... -
Searching the Magneto-structural Correlations on Double Salt Magnetic Ionic L...
In recent studies, we have found that imidazolium magnetic ionic liquid based on tetrahaloferrate anions display very interesting magnetic and dynamic phenomena (highlight ILL... -
Nanoscale Segregation and Order-Disorder in Ceria-Zirconia Catalysts
This proposal is concerned with understanding the properties of materials used in important applications in catalysis and energy, such as in molecular transformations of exhaust... -
The Local Structure of Doped α - Tricalcium Phosphate
The biomaterial potential of many calcium phosphates, such as hydroxyapatites and tricalcium phosphates (Ca3(PO4)2, TCP hereafter), have led to much literature attention over... -
Characterising the amorphicity and porosity of ice aggregates in planet-formi...
With the discovery of almost 3000 exo-planets it is clear that planet formation is a by-product of star formation, yet in the micron ? cm size range, where relative velocities... -
Probing perfume surface delivery / retention rates in-situ
This proposal is part of a funded (CASE) project, aimed at understanding the delivery of benefit actives (perfumes) to interfaces and the development of new self-assembled... -
Cation substitution in synthetic meridianiite (MgSO4.11D2O): phase behaviour ...
MgSO4.11H2O (MS11) is the most highly hydrated phase in the binary MgSO4¿H2O system. Whilst lower hydrates in this system have end-member analogues containing alternative... -
