Study of ordered silicon connectivity defects in the novel zeolite ITQ-45
The structure of the novel pure silica zeolite ITQ-45 has been recently determined in our laboratory. However, although it appears to be a fully connected framework, 29Si NMR... -
Neutron diffraction study on La0.4Sr0.4GaxTi1-xO3-x/2-δ materials with p...
The successful integration of high temperature electrochemical devices in the future energy economy based on renewable sources strongly depends on the development of new... -
High resolution structures of the simple halogen bonded complexes.
We propose a high-resolution powder neutron diffraction study of the archetypal donor-acceptor complexes (CD3)3N...I2; (CD3)3N...ICl; C5D5N¿ICl; and C5D5N¿IBr. These are the... -
Structural change investigation of CeNbO4 while dissociating H2O at high temp...
One potential solution to reduce the greenhouse gas emission is the generation of fuels through thermochemical dissociation of CO2 and H2O. Previous studies have shown that... -
Structural phase diagram of rare earth substituted multiferroic BiFeO3
BiFeO3 is one of the most widely studied multiferroics (ferroelectric TC ~ 830°C, and antiferromagnetic TN ~ 370°C). Rare earth doping has been shown to be a suitable method of... -
The possibility of strongly ferromagnetic austenite in a stainless steel
It is generally accepted that austenitic steels (fcc) show no ferromagnetic signature. However, thermomagnetic measurements suggest an unexpected ferromagnetic transition (Tc =... -

Cation/Anion Order in Ion Excess Garnets and Ruddlesden Popper Phases
In this work, we will examine the Li distribution in cubic and tetragonal La3Zr2Li7O12, tetragonal LaSr2Sb2Li7O12, as well as the variation in the distribution with temperature.... -
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... -
NIMROD: Structural Investigation of Surfactant Coatings of FePt Nanocrystals
This proposal aims to investigate the short range structure and morphology of FePt NPs, of average diameter ~ 2 nm, and their surrounding surfactant layer (oleic acid and... -
Spin ordering in the iridium oxide pyrochlore A2Ir2O7
Here we propose to search for magnetic order in 3 variants of the A2Ir2O7 (A=Y, Nd, and Lu) system. A fundamentally new, moderately-coupled, electronic ground state has been... -
Thermal Microstresses in Polycrystalline Zinc
Temperature-dependent neutron powder-diffraction experiments on polycrystalline hexagonal zinc will be performed between 300 K and 25 K. During cooling to low temperatures... -
In-situ Gravimetric Study of the Decomposition of Alkali Metal Amidoboranes
We request 3 days on HRPD with the IGAn apparatus, to perform in-situ neutron diffraction and thermogravimetric studies of the decomposition of deuterated alkaline amidoboranes.... -
Magnetic ordering and structure phenomena in the rare-earth CeRu2Al10 compound.
This proposal is for crystal-structure (on HRPD) and magnetic ordering (on WISH) studies on the local-moment compound CeRu2Al10. It follows from our recent neutron studies at... -
The role of Disorder in Phase Transitions in some manganese Perovskites
The aim of this work is to understand the origin of the difference in the behaviour between the two doped manganites Sr0.65Pr0.35MnO3 and Sr0.70Ce0.30MnO3. The hypothesis we... -
The Magnetic Structure of LaCoxMn1-xO3 (x = 0.75)
It is the aim of the current proposal to examine in detail the magnetic structure of LaCo0.75Mn0.25O3 at low temperature, which should provide insight into the nature of the... -
The structures of PZT in its ¿rhombohedral¿ phases and their dependence on th...
In the piezoelectric ceramic material PbZrxTi1-xO3 (PZT) there is controversy about the structure of PZT at the Zr-rich end. This region has always been considered to be of... -
Understanding the "post-perovskite" structure (I): the Behaviour of CaPtO3 at...
Recently, our view of the Earth¿s lower mantle changed dramatically. It had been thought that two major phases were present throughout all of the lower mantle:...
