The Dynamics of Breathing Metal-Organic Frameworks from Total Scattering
Metal-organic framework materials are a topical family of nanoporous solids that have potential applications in molecular storage, separation and catalysis. Some of these... -
High Pressure Structure of Carbonic Acid
Recent published studies have identified a stable solid form of carbonic acid at high pressure. This proposal is for beamtime to collect the data to solve its crystal structure. -
Structures of metastable water ice XVII with different guests molecules
Very recently, we have studied the crystalline structure of the C0-phase H2-filled ice (recovered at room pressure and low temperature) and ice XVII, a new form of ice... -
Understanding pressure-driven structural and magnetic properties in LaFeO3
This proposal is concerned with determining variations in the high pressure crystallographic and magnetic structure of LaFeO3. LaFeO3 is a characteristic example of... -
Micelle structures in unequal mixtures of amino-acid surfactants
In a previous proposal we started to study the micellar structures formed from biodegradable surfactants synthesised using amino acids as the headgroups. The aim of this work is... -
In-situ studies of alkaline earth nitride deuterides
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... -
Preferential Conduction Pathways in Sodium Conducting Glasses for Battery App...
The ionic conductivity of sodium chalcogenide or chalcohalide glasses is 2 to 3 orders of magnitude higher than that of oxide glasses and comparable with lithium ionic... -
The local structure in high-entropy alloy deuterides probed by neutron total ...
High-entropy alloys (HEAs) typically contain four or more principle elements in approximately equimolar amounts. It was recently discovered by the co-proposer that a... -
