Anomalous elasticity in negative thermal expansion materials
Recent experimental work on the negative thermal expansion material Zn(CN)2 has shown that the elastic stiffness is anomalously reduced on compression. That is, if B is the bulk... -
Competition between C-H---O hydrogen bonds and C=O----Br halogen bonds
Our main objective in this proposal is to study the competition between halogen and hydrogen bonding as a function of temperature in the complex (CH3)2C=O--- Br2. The results of... -

Cooperative Jahn-Teller distortions in Ru4+ double perovskites
The aim of the proposed experiment is to use HRPD to follow the temperature dependence of the crystal structures of the double perovskites La2MgRuO6 and La2CoRuO6. This is of... -
Stochastic vs. Intermolecular Motions in Strongly Associated Liquids: The Cas...
Neutron scattering is a powerful technique to study stochastic motions in liquids but it requires an energy resolution well below the meV range. As a consequence, quasielastic... -
Investigations of some potentially multiferroic/magnetoelectric rare earth ta...
Multiferroics - where ferroelectric and magnetic orders co-exist - continue to be of technological and scientific importance, and of particular interest are the improper... -
Understanding the effects of pressure and temperature on the structure of an ...
The discovery of superconductivity in iron-pnictide materials has generated much excitement in the past year about possibly unifying mechanisms for high-temperature... -

Transport properties of sodium ions in novel electrochemical storage systems
The electrochemical energy storage and conversion devices are the key components in future?s smart energy grids enabling on-demand and efficient energy usage. To date, flow,... -
A detailed study of magnetic diffuse scattering in a low-dimension ferromagne...
We have carried out detailed investigations on the ferromagnetic (FM) Kondo lattice CePdSb, in polycrystal as well as single crystal form (TC=17.5K) using magnetization, neutron... -
Which is it? ¿ Neutrons distinguish monolayers xrays can¿t.
We have obtained the monolayer structure diffraction patterns from several iodoalkanes adsorbed on graphite, of interest in the study of non-covalent bonding. However, it is... -
Variable Temperature Studies of the Novel Multiferroic Tetragonal Tungsten Br...
Recently there has been a renaissance in the investigation of materials which simultaneously exhibit magnetic and electric ordering with these materials expected to find... -
Phase Diagram of Ba1-xKxFe2As2
In the new class of iron pnictide superconductors, there is evidence of phase coexistence close to the phase boundary between the SDW and superconducting order produced by hole... -
Structural characterisation of a pyrochlore solid solution in the Na2O●...
3 days on POLARIS are requested to study three pyrochlore compositions in the Na2O●Bi2O3●TiO2 system that has been reported only once in the literature, without any...
