To determine the temperature evolution of the structures of two Bi-based perovskites with commensurate structures through their magnetic transition temperatures to contrast...

In a recent SURF experiment on the formation of silica films templated with cat-anionic/polymer complexes we found that the film growth and evolution occurs on a faster time...

Although surfactant detergency is well understood above 30 C, actions of surfactants below 30 C are not well established. In the era of energy saving and environment caring, we...

We wish to investigate helimegnetic ordering in epilayers of Fe1-xCoxGe known from bulk measurements as a helimagnetic material with a high ordering temperature. Strain in...

We have been studying the formation of solid polymer-surfactant films at the air-solution interface formed from cationic surfactants with PEI. We wish to use the highly...

Bacterial membranes contain safety valves called mechanosensitive ion channels, which protect the bacterium from changes in the osmotic pressure of their environment. However,...

Ba2CuTeO6 and Ba2NiTeO6 are compounds with structures related to that of the proposed spin liquid Ba3CuSb2O9. The space group and nature of the B-site ordering in Ba3CuSb2O9...

Heavy alkaline earth nitride hydrides (AE2NH, with AE = Ca and Ba) are of interest due to their potential suitability as electrolyte materials in a variety of electrochemical...

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...

Metal-organic framework materials are a topical family of nanoporous solids that have potential applications in molecular storage, separation and catalysis. Some of these...

In a series of in situ neutron diffraction measurements from deuterium up-take in Li3N, the present authors have identified a novel non-stoichiometric 'quasi-imide' of...

The very heterogeneous, but non-random, arrangement of lipids and proteins in cell membranes, known as rafts are of major scientific interest. Lipids in cell membranes are...

Protecting biomolecules, such as proteins and enzymes, from the effects of cooling and freezing is important for the storage and handling of pharmaceuticals. Deep eutectic...

Lung surfactant protein B, SP-B, is found at the air-water interface of the lung. A deficiency in SP-B at birth is known to be fatal. We have recently successfully studied the...

In this application we will conduct the first detailed study of the structure of glassy metal-ammonia systems ? so-called Ogg glasses, named after the person who first proposed...

Products such as fabric and hair conditioners are commonly in the form of di-alkyl chain cationic lamellar phase dispersion. The effects of shear on such lamellar phase...

The Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) compounds An+1BnO3n+1 exhibit a broad range of technologically interesting properties such as high-Tc superconductivity, colossal magnetoresistance,...

Thermal microstress and microstrain develop in polycrystalline zinc powder particles due to anisotropic thermal expansion, as revealed by corresponding diffraction-line...

The Indonesian government has recently passed a new policy regarding a mandatory regulation for all gas stations nationwide to replace existing diesel fuel to B-20 biofuel....

Microwave dielectric ceramics are used in communications devices. Such materials need high relative permittivity, high dielectric quality factor and be temperature stable....
