Identifying the muon site in fluorine containing compounds
Fluorides form model systems with which we can test ideas about muon sites. We therefore propose a series of short experiments on well-defined fluoride systems that will be... -
LF and RF muSR Studies of Polymer Dynamics in Polydimethylsiloxane
Muon spin relaxation will be used to study the dynamical properties of the polymer polydimethylsiloxane. This has emerged as an excellent model system for the study of polymer... -
Chasing the hydrogen-saturated defects in tungsten with Muon spectroscopy
The structure and dynamics of hydrogen (H) defects in tungsten recently become a topic of major interest since this metal has been chosen as shielding material for the next step... -
High Temperature μSR Study of Green Dioptase: Muon or Proton Diffusion?
Green dioptase is a naturally occurring mineral, that has a deep green colour, similar to that of an emerald, and with a chemical formula of CuSiO3.H2O. The Cu lies in quasi-1D... -
Investigation of magnetic defects in exfoliated graphite
Graphene has recently received widespread attention, after the discovery of its stability as a 2Dcrystal at ambient conditions and thanks to a wealth of possible applications.... -
Structural Investigations of Substituted Bornites
Thermoelectric (TE) materials enable the recovery of useful electrical energy from waste heat. High-efficiency requires a high electrical conductivity to be coupled with a high... -
Study of a copper oxalate 1DHAF chain system
One dimensional Heisenberg antiferromagnetic (1DHAF) chain systems continue to attract interest as there are several outstanding questions about the nature of the propagation of... -
MuSR investigations of TNO and LLZO diffusion mechanics above room temperature
Li-ion technologies are at the forefront of energy storage applications, including automotive and stationary storage, to meet global demand. TiNb2O7 (TNO) has recently garnered... -
Artificial [FeFe]-Hydrogenases and Muon Spectroscopy
Preliminary measurements of [FeFe]-hydrogenase model complexes were made in a previous experiment using EMU (RB 1010177). The results were interpreted in combination with DFT... -
Gamma Dopplerimetry to Determine the Environment of Iodine in Halogen Bonded ...
The design of two dimensional materials assembled from molecular building blocks is dependent on understanding how molecules interact on surfaces. Whilst structural studies of... -

Magnetic ordering in CaFe3O5 and CaFe5O7
This proposal is to explore the evolution of magnetic ordering in two members of the homologous series CaFe2O4(FeO)n with n = 1, & 3, and to correlation the behaviour of the... -
How muons see the motion of negative hydrogen ions in solids
Ions are often diffusing in solids. Among many ions, H+, Li+, Na+, O2-, and F- are known to become mobile at high temperatures in solids and they are used for fuel cells and... -
A Self-consistent Description of the Thermoelastic Properties of Dielectric P...
20 years ago, Anderson proposed that the thermoelastic properties of the dominant (mantle) phase within the Earth, MgSiO3 perovskite, could be described as a simple Debye solid.... -
Investigation of lithium diffusion in spinel Li2NiGe3O8 and N-doped Li3+xV4-x...
We wish to perform muon spectroscopic experiments on materials from two ceramic systems that are of interest for possible solid electrolyte applications in lithium-ion battery... -
Dynamics of Perfluoroalkanes and Polytetrafluoroethylene
In this experiment we will use the F-mu+-F state as a window into the dynamics of perfluoroalkanes and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) at the molecular level. We will investigate... -

Interaction of muonium centres and excess carriers in highly injected silicon
We have developed a method to measure carrier recombination lifetime in crystalline silicon with the photo-muSR technique. The key of the method is to measure the dependence of... -
Searching for magnetic ordering and spin-gapped behavior in the first S = 1 ¿...
We propose to explore the spin dynamics in LiNiVO4, a system which we believe is a previously unobserved realization of a random distribution of 1D antiferromagnetic Heisenberg... -
Crystal symmetry change at the magnetic transition in MnB and FeB compounds p...
The "magnetocaloric effect" (MCE) is based on the entropy difference encountered when themagnetic state of a material is changed and it can be used for refrigeration. However,...
