In-situ study of nickel recrystallization using neutron diffraction
The objectives of this project are to: 1) advance in-situ studies of recrystallization kinetics in deformed metals using neutron diffraction. This is new approach which will... -
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... -
Conformation of di-stearoyl-polyethylene glycol surfactants as enhancers of b...
This proposal relates to the structural studies of Di-stearoyl and di-palmitoyl Polyethylene glycol derivates as a function of the PEG head group at the air-water and the... -
Monitoring Packing Changes in Magnetic Halogenated Phthalocyanine Molecules
The way that small molecules pack together can have substantial ramifications on the observed physical properties, reactivity, and device characteristics, even if the molecule... -
Solid state phase transformations at very high temperature in a martensitic s...
Selective Laser Melting (SLM) is a technique of Additive Manufacturing of metallic parts. There are still several barriers of acceptance of that process in the industry and... -
In-situ high resolution neutron diffraction and Electric polarization measure...
The National Physical Laboratory (NPL) and the WISH instrument team has worked together to enable simultaneous real-time high resolution (powder and single crystal) neutron... -
Evidence for long-range order in HoTbTi2O7
Evidence of long-range order has been observed in the diffuse neutron scattering data for a single crystal of HoTbTi2O7.A spin ice like pattern and pinch points coexist with the... -

Pressure-induced structural and magnetic transitions in honeycomb ruthenate A...
Honeycomb ruthenates (Ru4+, 4d4) with strong spin-orbit coupling are expected to host unconventional magnetic ground state owing to a spin-orbital-entangled Jeff = 0 state. The... -
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... -
Muon Spin Relaxation detection of Spin-Polarized Conduction Electrons in Silicon
The proposed experiment is to observe optical spin-injection in Silicon through MuSR detection. An important part of research in next generation electronics focusses on the... -
In-situ studies of thermal electrochemical cells utilising transition metal s...
Thermal batteries are used in applications were high reliability is a key requirement. They can be stored for decades and activated in less than a second. Most contemporary... -
Investigating the spin-nematic phase in the 1D quantum spin chain, Linarite
Linarite is a natural mineral which displays a rich and complex phase diagram in applied fields up to 10 T for temperatures below 2.8 K. As a frustrated J1-J2 chain material,... -
Framework flexibility and host-guest hydrogen bonding in the metal-organic do...
The recently reported double perovskite analogue imidazolium potassium iron(III) cyanide is noteworthy for two reasons. First, the order-disorder phase transitions, in which the... -
In-Situ Studies of Electrochemically Enhanced Performance in Perovskite Elect...
Recent studies in our laboratory have shown that a range of A-site deficient perovskite oxides, with carefully tuned chemical compositions, exhibit excellent properties when... -
Thermodynamic Control of Isotopic Polymorphism
Co-crystals of 4-methylpyridine and pentachlorophenol (MP-PCP) exhibit the very unusual property of isotopic polymorphism, formation of different phases by samples differing... -
Kinetics of Protein Adsorption on well-characterised polymer brushes
We wish to develop a rational understanding of the mechanisms underlying the way water soluble polymer brushes - in particular those of polyethylene oxide/polyethylene glycol -... -
The quest for attractive divalent sulfur - oxygen interactions
Weak nonbonded interactions between a divalent sulfur and an oxygen atom have attracted growing interest because of their roles in determining the structure and the biological... -
Sub-Kelvin helium confinement in crystalline nanopores
Under confinement in porous media, helium-4 excitations develop a complicate behaviour and, in addition to a bulk-like spectrum, a second branch emerges due to helium-4 atoms in... -
Understanding oxygen-muonium interaction in liquid water
Dissolved molecular oxygen in solution depolarizes muonium because ground-state molecular oxygen has triplet electrons and is paramagnetic. People normally remove them from...
