Hysteresis in the deformation of layered crystal structures
The aim of this proposal is to study the origin of the hysteresis effect in many layered crystal structures, in particular MAX-phases, such as Ti2AlC. This effect has been... -
Influence of rafted microstructures on the in-situ strain response of single ...
The proposed experiment concerns the role of microstructure on the high temperature deformation behaviour of single crystal Ni-base superalloys. This class of material is of... -
Low energy excitations in solid 4He
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... -
High pressure evolution of magnetic state and crystal structure of Pr1-xCaxMn...
Recently insulator-metal transition in Pr0.7Ca0.3MnO3 was observed at P = 0.5 GPa, implying a change in magnetic ground state, which was initially a pseudo-CE AFM one. In later... -
Investigation of Multiple-q states around the Quantum Critical Point of URu2S...
URu2Si2 has been examined intensively over the decades for the rich phase diagram including superconductivity, Hidden Order and multiple magnetic phases appearing around the... -
Towards reliable residual stress characterization in dissimilar metal welds
The proposed experiment forms a part of a joint study by M. Rahman, an ILL PhD thesis student, and J. Brokx, a CDT thesis student supported by ISIS. In the proposed experiment,... -
Is there electronic nematic order in Fe pnictides?
The concept of an electronic nematic, in which the electronic wavefunctions have different symmetry to the crystal structure, has been proposed to explain several unusual... -
Structure of Lead Germanate Glasses
We wish to perform a detailed and comprehensive study of the structure of lead germanate glasses, over a wide range in composition. Most structural studies of germanate glasses... -
The Anderson-Gruneisen parameter and high P/T crystal structure of post-perov...
Recently, our view of the Earth¿s lower mantle changed dramatically. It had been thought that two major phases were present in all the lower mantle: MgSiO3-perovskite (PV) and... -
Towards an accurate structural phase diagram for the novel BiScO3-PbTiO3 ferr...
The aim of this experiment is to determine accurately the crystal structures of phases in the (1-x)BiScO3-xPbTiO3 (BST-PT) perovskite phase diagram, particularly in the vicinity... -
Characterisation of residual strains and recrystallisation of single crystal ...
Ni-base single crystal (SX) superalloys are advanced materials that are used in modern land-based gas turbine blades to achieve high operation performance. However localised... -
Crystal Structures of Multiferroic MnWO4: HRPD
Multiferroic materials are rare and exceptional: they are ferroelectric and ferromagnetic in the same phase and these two properties can couple. Recently, materials with complex... -
Inelastic magnetic scattering in CePd3
CePd3 is a classic intermediate valence (IV) system. In MAPS experiment 620167 we obtained an important qualitative result for CePd3, namely that the Kondo-like scattering... -
Investigation of Magnetic Structures in magnetoelectric multiferroic Gd0.5Dy0...
Ferroelectricity in type-II multiferroics is induced by breaking of inversion symmetry by certain type of spin structure below the magnetic ordering temperature. Therefore, a... -
Magnetic interactions in the room-temperature skyrmion material Co8Zn8Mn4
We propose an investigation of the spin-waves in the recently discovered room-temperature skyrmion material Co8Zn8Mn4. The ground state of Co8Zn8Mn4 is a very long wavelength... -
The Effect of Pressure on the Crystal Structure of Serine Hydrate
Serine monohydrate undergoes a phase transition at 5.2 GPa which involves reorientation of water molecules. It appears that this disrupts H-bonding elsewhere in the crystal,... -

Magnetic Exciations in single crystalline Erbium Iron Garnet
Erbium iron garnet is a technologically important material with potential use in quantum computing. The predicted presence of a magnetic resonance and an optically active erbium... -
Compression mechanisms of LTA and EMT zeolites
We request 4 days to collect high-resolution structural high-pressure data on two zeolites - zeolite A and EMC-2. Our previous theoretical findings from geometric simulation... -
