An INS Study of the Effect of Pressure on the Crystal Structure Titanium Tetr...
At ambient pressure TiCl4 forms a molecular solid consisting of isolated TiCl4 molecules (phase-I). At 0.5 GPa this structure undergoes a transition to phase-II, which is... -
High-Temperature Crystal Structure of Aluminium-Substituted La(Sr)Ga(Mg)O3-d ...
Due to a high-oxide ion conductivity, strontium and magnesium co-substituted lanthanum gallate (LSGM) is considered as a potential electrolyte material for solid oxide fuel... -
SANS Investigation on Packing Structure of Proteasome Activator 28
Proteasome plays an important role in the processing of antigenenic proteins for presentation by the MHC class I pathway. PA28 is an activator of the 20S proteasome, a large... -
Structure Determination of a New H2 Clathrate Phase
Gas clathrate hydrates are crystalline inclusion compounds formed when water and gas come into contact at high pressures and low temperatures. To date there are only three... -
Structure of Ge-Se Glasses: Extreme Compositions
We propose to measure the structure of glassy Ge2Se3 and GeSe9 which lie at either end of the glass forming region in the Ge-Se system. The motivation is provided by the need to... -
Structure of Adsorbed Surfactant Layers at the Ethanoalammonium Nitrate¿Air I...
We have recently completed x-ray reflectivity, neutron reflectivity [RB810041], and sum frequency spectroscopy experiments using non-ionic surfactants adsorbed at the... -
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... -
Completing the Magnetic Ordering-Crystal Structure Phase Diagram of Supercond...
The key objective is to measure three samples of composition Fe(1.05)Te, Fe(1.12)Te, and Fe(1.14)Te as a function of temperature (base to 80 K) through their magnetic ordering... -
Structure of GeSe4 glass using neutron diffraction with isotope substitution
The structure of GeSe4 glass will be measured using the method of isotope substitution in neutron diffraction with both Ge and Se isotopes. This material is representative of a... -
Structure and Magnetism in Iron-Substituted Benavidesite
We wish to investigate a new series of materials in which manganese in benavidesite, MnPb4Sb6S14, is progressively replaced by iron, leading to jamesonite at complete... -
Structure and Three-dimensional Magnetic Properties of One-Dimensional Sulphi...
Magnetoresistance (MR) is defined as the relative change in the compound electrical resistivity upon application of an external magnetic field. It is the fundamental property on... -
The Pressure and Temperature Dependence of the Structure of Ammonium Triiodide
We have shown that the molecular ionic solids MI3 (M=Tl, Cs, Tl, NH4) undergo structural phase transitions below 3.4 GPa at RT to give the same new high pressure phase (HP) with... -
Influence of Zeolite Structure on propane/propene separation from mixtures us...
Zeolites are perhaps the most successful microporous materials used for catalysis and separation processes in refineries and chemical industries[1-3]. This is due to the... -
