Diffuse scattering study of single crystal PrBa2Cu3O7-x
Standard diffraction studies of PrBCO and YBCO show that these two compounds are isostructical. However, if any Pr/Ba disorder is present in PrBCO, the diffuse scattering signal... -
Is H-bonding the source of large heats of fusion in guanidinium based thermal...
The organic salt guanidinium mesylate [Gdm][CH3SO3] is a promising phase change material for thermal energy storage applications. It has melting point Tm = 208 °C, and... -
High pressure for liquids project on SANDALS
This beamtime request is part of a long term project based on the liquids diffractometer SANDALS and aimed at developing the use of Paris-Edinburgh press for liquids and in... -
Atomic resolution holographic study of polycrystalline yttrium hydride
It is commonly accepted that the recording of holograms with atomic resolution requires singlecrystalline samples. Closer analysis, however, shows that the reduced information... -
Oxide ion vacancy distribution in A site substituted defect pyrochlores.
Electrolytes based on pyrochlores such as Ln2M2O7 (M = Ti, Zr, Hf) have attracted attention due to their relative stability combined with relatively high ionic conductivity at... -
Investigation of lithium diffusion in N-doped Li3+xVO4-xNx ceramics using µSR
We wish to complete muon spectroscopic experiments on materials from a ceramic system of interest for possible solid electrolyte applications in lithium-ion battery devices:... -
Study of cation disorder, oxygen vacancy ordering and proton sites in La2-xNd...
On the basis of X-ray diffraction the oxygen deficient La2-xNdxCe2O7 series displays a transition from disordered fluorite to the C-type superstructure in which the cations... -
Excitations, BEC, and partially ordered states of liquid 4He in disorder
We propose measurements of the elementary phonon-roton (p-r) excitations of liquid 4He confined in porous MCM-41 (45 Å pore diameter) at wave vectors Q ¿ beyond the roton¿, 2.4... -
The chemisorption of hydrogen over a high surface area cobalt catalyst: An IN...
In collaboration with Sasol Technology UK Ltd, the research team have previously used INS to investigate the surface chemistry of synthesis gas (CO + H2) over a series of... -
Study of structural and phase transitions of carbon dioxide confined in the n...
When fluids are confined in pores with dimensions in the nanoscale, their properties differ from the bulk mainly due to the solid-fluid interactions and the finite pore size.... -
Total Scattering Study of Hexagonal and Rhombohedral Bi2O3 Based Electrolytes
Bismuth oxide based electrolytes have been widely studied due to their high oxide ion conductivity. The d-phase of Bi2O3 shows the highest known oxide-ion conductivity of any... -
Divacancy superstructures and enhanced thermopower in NaxCayCoO2
Replacing Na ions in NaxCoO2 with divalent Ca ions results in the formation of ordered arrays of divacancy clusters, rather than the trivacancy clusters found for the pure... -
Interplay of magnetism and superconductivity in the iron-based spin ladder Ba...
Iron-based superconductors (FeSCs) have been an essential research area in condensed matter physics. Spins of iron sites forming a long periodic configuration, called the... -
Investigation of magnetic defects in exfoliated and ball-milled graphite
The recent interest in carbon-based materials like graphene stimulated a deeper analysis of the magnetism in graphite defects. In a previous µSR experiment we observed an... -
Determination of the structure of methoxy on eta-alumina
We have recently demonstrated that we are able to obtain structural information about adsorbed hydrogenous species from a variety of metal catalysts. We emphasise that this is a... -
Locating transition metals in the apatite structure
Apatites are currently of major interest in a number of fields: biomaterials, solid oxide fuel cells, catalysis, environmental remediation to name a few. Hydroxyapatite -... -
Metal Distributions in TiCoSb and (Ti1-xVx)Co1-yFey(Sb1-zSnz) half-Heusler Th...
TiCoSb based half-Heusler compositions are of interest as p-type elements in thermoelectric waste heat recovery. We have found unexpected n-type behaviour in the title... -
A re-inventory after 12 years – Increase in red wood ant nests and woodpecker...
Recent works report declines in insect diversity, species and biomass in Europe due to habitat loss and fragmentation, pollution, climate change, or invasive species. For red... -
