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... -
Local Structure in (K,Na)NbO3 Piezoelectric Ceramics
KxNa1-xNbO3 (KNN)-based solid solutions are promising lead-free piezoelectrics for ceramic actuators. In this system, the long-range order of octahedral rotations and... -
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... -
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... -
Excitations in an orbitally dimerized spin S=1 honeycomb antiferromagnet
Ru4+ ions in Li2RuO3 are on a bipartite lattice and have an orbital degeneracy. The four electrons of the magnetic Ru4+ ions in the threefold-orbitally degenerate t2g manifold... -
Structural determination of non-stoichiomentric phases Li2+yND for 0<y<1
In a series of in situ neutron diffraction measurements from deuterium up-take in Li3N, the present authors have identified a novel non-stoichiometric 'quasi-imide' of... -
Looking at the motion associated with the cation and their freezing in TEA(TC...
The study of organic based materials is a popular topic and spans both chemistry and physics and presents some significant advantages. Of interest within this proposal is the... -

Structure of hot dense liquid carbon dioxide
We propose to study the structure of liquid CO2 by neutron diffraction under high pressure and high temperatures to 6 GPa / 800 K. Carbon dioxide belongs to the most fundamental... -
The chemisorption of hydrogen over a high surface area cobalt catalyst: An IN...
In collaboration with Sasol Technology UK Ltd, the research team have previously used INS to investigate the surface chemistry of synthesis gas (CO + H2) over a series of... -
Investigating the formation of novel mixed amide-imide complexes and understa...
Inexpensive light-metal amides are among the most highly active and effective ammonia decomposition catalysts at modest temperatures and are likely to surpass the performance of... -
Stroboscopic Neutron and X-ray mapping of strain fields in dynamically loaded...
Bearings are essential components in many types of machinery, working to reduce energy losses. Over the last century improved analytical models were developed for predicting the... -
Test of a New Supercritical In-Situ Hydrothermal Cell
The objectives of this proposal is to seek 2 days on POLARIS in order to test and complete a full commissioning of the latest design of our prototype in-situ reaction cell for... -
Temperature induced structural phase transitions in BaPrO3 and acceptor doped...
The sequence of structural phase transitions that occur in distorted ABO3 perovskites as a function of temperature is of intrinsic interest for better understanding of the... -
Hydrogen containing intermediates during catalytic CO2 reduction on sulfides
We investigated the influence of sulfur on a well-known methanation catalyst, nickel on alumina/silica, so as to gain more information about sulfur poisoning. By different... -
Universal Quantum-Critical Dynamics of a Two Dimensional Antiferromagnet
We have recently discovered a pressure-induced quantum phase transition (QPT) at 4.3 kbar in the gapped quantum magnet piperazinium hexachlorodicuprate (PHCC) by means of... -
Cryopreservation of liver cell spheroids used in artificial liver bio-transpl...
The development of new cryopreservation strategies has major potential in medicine, in particular for storage of biological matter. The detailed characteristics of the cooling... -
Characterising the amorphicity and porosity of ice aggregates in planet-formi...
With the discovery of almost 3000 exo-planets it is clear that planet formation is a by-product of star formation, yet in the micron ? cm size range, where relative velocities... -
Cation substitution in synthetic meridianiite (MgSO4.11D2O): phase behaviour ...
MgSO4.11H2O (MS11) is the most highly hydrated phase in the binary MgSO4¿H2O system. Whilst lower hydrates in this system have end-member analogues containing alternative... -
Multiscale time resolving study of the crystallisation of nanofibrils of a mo...
This experiment exploits the unique capability of Nimrod to study the crystallisation of nanofibrils of a molecular gelator dibenzylidene sorbitol from alkane solutions on...
