Titanium silicates are important for a number of applications such as ultra low expansion glasses, anti-reflective thin film coatings and catalytic materials. Titanium silicates...

Dy3Mg2Sb3O14 forms a layered structure with magnetic Dy3+ ions forming sheets of corner sharing triangles, called a Kagome lattice. The Ising magnetic moments are constrained to...

CuFe1-xCrO2 has potential applications as an SOFC cathode material. It exhibits and interesting transformation on oxidation. This is a follow on from our recent HRPD experiment...

It is generally accepted that austenitic steels (fcc) show no ferromagnetic signature. However, thermomagnetic measurements suggest an unexpected ferromagnetic transition (Tc =...

We seek to develop new materials for sensing and removal of toxic gases (esp., SO2) and request 2 days on POLARIS to study the structural binding details and dielectric data...

Projected climate change is strongly influenced by clouds. The oxidative processing of pollutants in clouds affects droplet size and reflectivity, important climatic effects....

Negative thermal expansion (NTE), the phenomenon of a material contracting upon heating, is a relatively unique occurrence with practical applications and fundamental structure...

The next generations of Lithium batteries require materials with an enhanced energy density. The most realistic choice for such systems are the lithium rich electrodes (e.g....

The Arctic climate is strongly influenced by clouds. The oxidative processing of pollutants in Arctic clouds affects droplet size and optical properties, important climatic...

Organic-inorganic hybrid halide perovskites combine the optoelectronic properties commonly associated with high performance semiconductors with materials synthesis or processing...

In our recent NRSE experiment on the quasi two-dimensional quantum spin liquid PHCC at TRISP at FRM-II, we have found a zero field splitting (ZFS) of the magnon line of about 50...

The development of more active catalysts for the production of ammonia will have a worldwide impact on the energy cost of producing fertiliser. Composites of lithium hydride and...

Li-ion batteries are interesting because they offer high power and, as a consequence, they are preferred to aqueous-based batteries for traction applications e.g. hybrid...

The atoms in solid helium are weakly bound and have small mass so that the overlap of their wave functions (zero point motion) is large, making it a quantum solid close to the...

The Earth¿s climate is strongly influenced by clouds. The oxidative processing of pollutants in clouds affects droplet size and optical properties, important climatic effects....

During recent years, the study of T=0 quantum phase transitions (QPT), the emergent scaling properties and their profound influence on physical properties at T>0 has...

Previous NCS measurement on glass biocements revealed that setting is non-monotonic. Recent determinations using VESUVIO (2016-Apr) for Portland cements showed similar...

We are proposing to characterize the short range magnetic correlations and dynamics in a single crystal of Yb3Ga5O12, a geometrically frustrated spin liquid candidate. We have...

The recent discovery of superconductivity in Ca-intercalated graphite (C6Ca) has refocused considerable interest onto graphite intercalated compounds (GICs). We would like to...

This proposal seeks to identify and characterise the adsorption of primary linear amides that adsorb to the surface from the bulk of a polymer melt. These layers are...
