A range of novel chlorine-containing bioactive glasses have recently been developed at Queen Mary University of London for dental and orthopaedic applications. At present little... -
Breaking Zachariasen rules - the structure of barium zirconium fluoride glasses
Glass is an essential material with applications that are dominated by oxides, but fluoride glasses (based on barium zirconium fluorides, "ZBLAN" glasses) have key applications... -
Giant magnetostriction in CoMnSi: a tricritical metamagnet with large changes...
For several years, we have been studying the thermodynamics of the metamagnetic phase transition in CoMnSi and substituted versions. Our motivation has been that the... -
Mass-selective neutron spectroscopy of Zr-Be amorphous alloy.
Neutron Compton scattering experiments will be performed for the first time on amorphous metallic system. Obtained results for Zr50Be50 system will be compared with existing... -
Total scattering measurement of EMT framework zeolite: does it obey Lowenstei...
Zeolites are meso- and nano-porous framework materials with applications in many industries. The zeolite framework consists of corner-sharing tetrahedral units. The catalytic... -
Muon Studies of Na-ion Diffusion in Novel Low-temperature Cathode Material: "...
The most important scientific problem to solve for our modern society is how to convert and store clean energy. We are currently on the verge for a general breakthrough in... -
A Structural Study of Tungsten Tellurite Glasses
Tungsten Tellurites are being used to make optical fibres that transmit light into the mid infra red. However, not much is know about the structure of these glasses. We wish to... -
Measurement of the total muonium emission yield from silica aerogel using mus...
The aim of the present beam-time request is to perform a direct measurement of the total muonium emission rate from silica aeeogel to vacuum including the region very close to... -
Influence of nanoparticle size and morphology on the relative proportions of ...
Palladium is able to dissociative absorb large quantities of hydrogen, reversibly. However, the formation and relative proportion of different phases of palladium hydride, and... -
The Structure of Alkaline Earth Germanate Glasses
We request GEM beamtime to study the structure of a series of calcium germanate glasses. The changes in coordination number and properties which occur in alkali germanate... -
How is the nanoscale structure of Amorphous Solid Water (ASW) impacted by the...
This experiment will determine how the structure and porosity of Amorphous Solid Water (ASW) changes when the ice is contaminated by adsorbate molecules. ASW is a porous... -

A Structural Study of Alkaline-Earth Tellurite Glasses.
We wish to better understand the interaction between the alkaline earth modifiers and the tellurite glass network. The aim is to relate structural changes in the glasses with... -
Null Isotope Study of Lithium Borogermanate Glasses - continuation
Alkali borogermanate glasses are topologically complex, in that [BOn] (n = 3, 4)and [GeOn] (n = 4, 5, 6) polyhedra can coexist. Equilibrium between these structural units has... -
Quantum spin liquid ground state in the Co-based triangular antiferromagnet N...
A triangular lattice occupies a special position in the quantum spin-liquid (QSL) physics. Although the triangular-lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnet is known to evade a QSL,... -
Magnetic structure of pyrochlore irridate Y2Ir2O7
We propose to study by powder neutron diffraction the ordered magnetic state of the pyrochlore compound Y2Ir2O7. There is currently an increasing interest in the condensed... -
Developing a model for tellurium coordination change in glasses
We wish to better understand the evolution of the tellurium environment in glasses with the addition of modifier oxides. The aim is to relate these structural changes to the... -
Probing the Kinetics and Liquid Structure of Toluene Hydrogenation by Pt/MCM-41
In a proof-of-concept beamtime award (RB1220486) we studied the process of platinum-catalysed benzene hydrogenation in the pores of MCM-41 using standard neutron diffraction... -
