With the degenerate ground states by the competition between the interacting energies and geometrical properties of the crystal lattice at a specific given site, the...

Polar or non-centrosymmetric ferri(-o)magnets offer a plethora of potential technological devices;the inherent magnetoelectric effect can underpin both pyroelectric or...

Magnetic molecular framework materials, where the magnetic metal centres are linked together by molecules rather than single atoms, are a very exciting class of materials, as...

The spin excitations in superconducting LiFeAs have been found evolved from incommensurate peaks to commensurate peak at low energy. But the spin resonance is still not clear in...

Understanding the electronic anisotropic state at a temperature associated with the nematic phase is unresolved problems in iron pnictides. Although many experiments focus on...

We propose to study low-energy magnetic excitations associated with the low-temperature ordered phase in polycrystalline Sr2VO4. This layered perovskite compound exhibits an...

As part of a UK Catalysis Hub initiative in Catalyst Design involving a team of academic and industrial researchers, the methanol-to-gasoline reaction over zeolite catalysts is...

A series of recent incoherent inelastic neutron scattering (INS) experiments on low-temperature D2+H2 and Ne+H2 mixtures have revealed pronounced deviations from the Gaussian...

Iron selenide (FeSe), a member of "11" family in iron-based superconductors, does not have static AF order; thus, the structural transition and associated nematic order have...

In low-pressure methanol synthesis from fossil synthesis gas, Cu/ZnO/Al2O3-catalysts are successfully used in industrial synthesis at 250°C and 50-100 bar, but the exact...

The orthorhombic compound Ba4Ru3O10 having Ru3O12 timers coupled via corner-shared oxygens in the crystal structure exhibits very interesting magnetic and transport properties....

The rare-earth compound KYbSe2 provides a new chance for the study of frustrated magnets with strong SOC. It resembles YbMgGaO4 in many ways. Our susceptibility and specific...

The recently discovered 6H-perovskite Ba3PrRu2O9 is comprised of the triangular layers formed by Pr4+ ions and the Ru2O9 dimer units located between the triangular layers. Three...

We propose to use MERLIN to measure INS from commercial zeolite catalyst samples extracted from a reactor in which they have been exposed to dimethylether for different lengths...

The high ionic conducting delta-phase of Bi2O3 can be stabilized at ambient temperature in a range of compositions, viz., (Bi1-xYx)2O3 (x=0.1 -0.5). We would measure inelastic...

Due to the tunable interplay between magnetism and superconductivity the CenTmIn3n+2m (n, m = 1, 2; T = Co, Ir, Rh, Pd, Pt) family of heavy fermion compounds has been attractive...

SMMs have received much attention owing to their quantum tunneling and slow relaxation of the magnetization. This has led to an intense activity by synthetic chemists to...

To determine the crystal fields of hexagonal RRh3 (R=Pr, Nd) compounds showing ferromagnetic transitions at TC=3 and 6 K, respectively, we plan to perform inelastic neutron...

Organic-based materials have found applications in a wide variety of devices, including light emitting diodes, photovoltaics, and field effect transistors. These take advantage...

The A2B2O7 pyrochlore family, where A is a rare earth ion and B=Ti, Sn, is one of the most prolific series of compounds presenting magnetic frustration. The geometric Fd-3m...
