Exceptionally High Adsorption of Carbon Dioxide and Light Hydrocarbons in a T...
Porous functional metal-organic framework (MOF) materials show great potential for high capacity gas storage and separation. We seek to develop new materials for carbon capture... -
The quest for fully hydrogen-ordered ice XIV
Water ice displays a remarkably complex phase diagram containing pairs of hydrogen-ordered / disordered phases. Ice XII is a hydrogen-disordered phase and ice XIV is its... -
Unusual polymorphism in sodalites
We have recently observed extraordinary polymorphism on cooling various sodalites under vacuum. Materials undergo a phase transition followed by a fully reversible... -
Order-disorder and phase transitions in the LiFeO2 cathode materials
Despite the importance of the LiFeO2 phases as cathode materials in lithium ion batteries, little is known about their crystal structures, except that they should be based on... -
CO2 adsorption selectivity in microporous MOF's based on Cu2 paddle-wheels
Metal-organic framework (MOF) materials are a kind of inorganic-organic hybrid materials with a open modular molecular architecture. Such a modularity opens a plethora of... -

The proposing team has a well established experience in the study on samples containingH_2 and D_2. Our recent neutron spectroscopic results on sII and sH H_2-filled clathrate... -
Magnetic excitations in FeCrAs
We propose to carry out inelastic neutron scattering experiments to study magnetic excitation spectrum in FeCrAs. FeCrAs exhibits magnetic ordering around 125 K, which is... -
CONFORMATIONAL STUDY OF USNIC ACID
A conformational analysis of usnic acid by Inelastic Neutron Scattering spectroscopy is envisaged, aiming at a better understanding of the equilibrium between inter- and... -
INS studies of copper sulphate pentahydrate - two birds with one stone.
Copper sulphate pentahydrate is one of the iconic substances of chemistry. The characteristic dark blue colour is the result of the water present: four molecules are coordinated... -

We propose to study a novel nanostructure consisting of multi-walled carbon nanotubes continuously filled with a single crystal of Fe3C using total neutron scattering on NIMROD.... -
INS studies of molecular hydrogen in K-doped electrospun graphite nanofibres
The physisorptive capacity of graphite-based nanomaterials for hydrogen is strongly dependent on their internal surface areas and pore dimensions. We have made electrospun... -
Spin-phonon coupling in heavy fermion CeAuAl3 and CeCuAl3 compounds
To understand this novel ground state of CeCuAl3, we have carried out low and high-energies inelastic neutron scattering (INS) measurements using the IRIS and HET spectrometers.... -
Thermoelastic Properties of Thermoelectric PbSe I HRPD
We propose to study the effect of pressure and temperature on the crystal structure and the elastic properties of lead selenide, an important material for conversion of waste... -
Cascading magnetization plateaus in monoclinic CoV2O6
The aim of this proposal is to understand the origin of the cascade of magnetisation plateaus in monoclinic CoV2O6. While 1/3 plateaus have been reported in the literature,... -

The objective of this proposal is to spectroscopically identify the nature of surface species formed during the addition of tert butyl hydroperoxide onto the surface of the... -
Probing the ground state magnetic structure of single crystalline Mn2V2O7
Mn2V2O7 exhibits reversible structural transition from the high temperature monoclinic phase (C2/m) to low temperature triclinic phase (P-1) near room temperature where Mn2+... -
Magnetic Phase Diagram of Geometrically Frustrated SrHo2O4
In SrHo2O4, the Ho3+ ions are arranged in a network of triangles and hexagons, and coupled with antiferromagnetic exchange interactions, this gives rise to geometric...
