Continued studies of the temperature-pressure phase diagram of BiFeO3
Bismuth ferrite is the most widely studied multiferroic material primarily due to the observation of both room temperature magnetic and electric ordering. Despite extensive... -
Hydrophobicity ¿ The Key to Polymer-Drug Conjugate Conformation
The use of polymer-drug conjugates for the delivery of drugs to specific sites of disease within the body has shown much clinical promise. It has become clear that the... -
Microemulsion Controlled Polymorph Crystallisation
Control of crystallisation is essential for many applications ranging from pharaceuticals to packaging and food preservation, yet remains extremely challenging. Recently we have... -
Crystal structure analysis of new hyperkagome iridates
The interplay between electron correlation and spin-orbit coupling gives rise to a variety of exotic electronic states in 5d transition-metal oxides like iridates. One example... -
Unravelling the temperature-pressure phase diagram for the multiferroic, BiFeO3
Bismuth ferrite is arguably the most widely studied multiferroic material due to room temperature magnetic and ferroelectric ordering. However, despite extensive research the... -
Surface Active Carbene (Surfenes) Precursors and Complexes
Within the last decade N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands have been widely recognised for their numerous catalytic applications. However, despite their widespread use as... -
Structural Phase Characterisation of Iron Stone Objects from the Excavation s...
We propose to determine the mineral phase composition in 15 iron stone samples from the Tall Bazi excavation site in Syria. The results of this investigation will be compared... -
Cu-ion mobility and lattice dynamics in the liquid-like phase of Cu2Se
Thermoelectricity enables the conversion of waste heat into useful power, and it is becoming increasingly important for power recovery applications at high temperature, where... -
