Evolution of complex surface structures in LAS / nonionic surfactant mixtures
This proposal is part of a broad programme of collaborative research between RAL / Oxford and Unilever, using predominantly scattering techniques to investigate the nature of... -
Measurement of Residual Strain within Be-CuCrZr HIP-Bonded Samples for Fusion...
The ITER fusion reactor features first wall panels, facing the fusion plasma, that comprise Be tiles, bonded to a CuCrZr heat sink. During bonding of these materials, residual... -
Interfacial / surface retention / delivery of perfumes from different surface...
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... -
Probing the nature of the interactions at the surface of fuel cell catalysts ...
The objective of this proposal is to identify the nature of species formed on the surface of the catalyst material when they are exposed to typical fuel cell feed stocks and... -
Influence of minority-spin surface resonance on tunnelling anisotropic magnet...
We propose to study Fe based tunnelling anisotropic magnetoresistance (TAMR) structures. TAMR is a newly discovered effect potentially combining advantages of the anisotropic MR... -
Surface layers in organosols
This research project addresses an overlooked, but fundamental issue of colloid science: surfactant adsorption dynamics at nanoparticle-organosolvent interfaces. Adsorption of... -
Residual Stress Measurement on Welded Stainless Steel 304 by Neutron Diffraction
Welding-induced distortions and residual stresses of structural components can result in significant increase in manufacturing costs and then limit the development of innovative... -
Investigation of the nature of organic surface species formed on Au-based sup...
The objective of this proposal is to spectroscopically identify the nature of surface species formed during the addition of tert butyl hydroperoxide onto the surface of the... -
Interaction of polypeptide with surfactant on the surface of water
This proposal constitutes part of our ongoing study towards understanding the adsorption of collagen based polypeptide and its interaction with ionic surfactants at the... -
Surface and interface effects in oxygen deficient SrMnO3 thin films grown on ...
Complex oxide functionality, such as ferroelectricity, magnetism or superconductivity is often achieved in epitaxial thin-film geometries. Oxygen vacancies tend to be the... -
Atomic structures of semiconductor surfaces
This entry includes the surface structures of some prototypical semiconductors obtained via structural optimizations using the PBE density functional. The structures were...
