Phase transitions in non-centrosymmetric Dion-Jacobson Phases
Ferroelectric materials - those which exhibit a spontaneous and switchable electrical polarization - have a wide range of applications. However materials which exhibit... -
Structure of Colloidal Crystals Near a Solid Surface
The structure of colloidal crystals (dispersions of particles that spontaneously order in a regular array) is known to be influenced by solid boundaries. However there are few... -
In Situ Structural Study of Low Temperature Synthesised TiP2O7
The AX2O7 series has received much recent attention due to its ability to host a wide range of 4+ cations. The members of this series have been shown to exhibit complex... -

Determination of the structure of SiO2-rich aqueous fluids at high temperatur...
Many geological processes are governed by the migration of hot, mineral-rich water. These "hydrothermal" fluids are stable at high pressures and temperatures and are important... -
High-Pressure Structural Behaviour of 2,2,2-trifluoro-ethanol
In the mono-alcohols (ROH) there is a competition between the packing requirements of the R-group and for the hydroxyl groups to be sufficiently close for hydrogen bonding to... -
The definitive Bi4Ti3O12: a textbook example of Hybrid-Improper Ferroelectricity
Bi4Ti3O12 is a well-known and studied layered perovskite; such phases are ferroelectrics, which have been used in random-acccess memories and other applications. Understanding... -
