Diffraction Resistance Measurements of a Chalcopyrite
During the course of a PhD project funded by CCLRC's CMPC, we have developed a cell that allows electrical transport property measurements to be made simultaneously with the... -
Crystal structure and thermal expansion of acetylene (C2D2)
Acetylene is produced in great abundance in the solar system wherever carbonaceous solids are exposed to energetic radiation. It has been the subject of several studies,... -
Local structure of polymers in confined geometries in surface dominated samples
This proposal is focused on developing an understanding of how surfaces affect the local structure of synthetic polymers. There is considerable evidence for a strong variation... -

Neutron analysis of the structure of SrAl2O4 from 300 to 1273 K.
SrAl2O4 is a stuffed tridymite that has attracted a good deal of interest, since doping with Eu2+ leads to a material with elastic-luminescent response. The structure and phase... -
Structural distortions and magnetism in the layered oxide sulfide Sr2MnO2Cu1.5S2
This proposal aims to exploit the superior flux on the upgraded HRPD coupled with the intrinsic high resolution to correlate the magnetic structure and the crystal structure of... -
Structural study of BiNiO3 at high pressures and low temperatures
BiNiO3, synthesized at high pressure, has the unusual charge distribution Bi3+0.5Bi5+0.5Ni2+O3 with ordering of Bi3+ and Bi5+ charges on the A sites of a highly distorted... -
New quaternary nitride catalysts; mapping activity to structure and metal dis...
We propose an experiment on POLARIS to elucidate the changing structure and stoichiometry of mixed metal quaternary molybdenum nitrides, Con(1-x)FenxMonN (n=3, 6; 0 ≤ x... -
Interfacial layer structure of lipopeptides adsorbed at the air/water interface
Lipopeptide surfactants are a group of interesting biosurfactants due to their natural origin and their high effectiveness at reducing interfacial tension. However, there is a... -
Correlation of structure and magnetic ordering with composition in layered co...
We propose to use HRPD to determine the detailed structures of a series of cobalt oxysulfides containing Co in square planar coordination. Two compositions Sr2CoO2Cu2-deltaS2... -
Local structure and proton sites in proton conducting brownmillerites
This proposal requests 3 days on Maps to investigate the nature of local structure and proton sites in the proton conducting brownmillerite system Ba2In1.85M0.15O6H2 (M = In,... -
Vacancy clusters and local magnetic structure of wüstite, Fe(1-x)O
The nature and distribution of vacancy defects in wüstite, Fe(1-x)O, is an important problem because the structural and dynamical properties of the mineral - both of which are... -
Probing the structure of titanium silicates over a wide range of length scales
Titanium silicates are important for a number of applications such as ultra low expansion glasses, anti-reflective thin film coatings and catalytic materials. Titanium silicates... -
Magnetism, structure and superconductivity in Sr1¿xNaxFe2As2 (OSIRIS)
We will use the high resolution of HRPD and the excellent long d-spacing data available on OSIRIS to investigate the phase transitions in Sr1-xNaxFe2As2 which are associated...
