A High-Pressure investigation on 3,4,5-Trinitropyrazole
This proposal will explore the effect of elevated pressure on the 3,4,5-Trinitropyrazole (TNP). TNP releases a large amount of dinitrogen gas as a detonation product which is... -
Magnetic interactions in ferromagnetic topological insulator multilayer struc...
Topological insulators are one of the most important recent discoveries in condensed matter physics. The topological surface state can become gapped when ferromagnetic order is... -
The mechanism of lipid transport in Gram-negative bacteria
The bacterial cell envelope is one of the best targets for antimicrobial development. It is this envelope that harbours the instruments of microbial warfare, preventing its... -
Macrocyclic ligands at the oil-water interface
Azacrown ethers and a mixture of azacrown ethers and fatty acids have been studied at the oil-water interface using surface-pressure isotherms and other classical surface... -
Self-assembling antimicrobial peptides: interactions with model lipid membranes
We propose to investigate antimicrobial peptides that self-assemble into well-defined nanostructures. Previous SAXS results have shown that the peptides form rather robust... -
Interaction of thermo-responsive deutrated nanogels with lipid monolayer at t...
Drug delivery through skin is an important delivery route. However, the outermost layer of the skin provides a formidable barrier to dermal absorption and penetration for... -
Inelastic neutron scattering and musr studies of the high-distorted double pe...
The heat capacity and neutron powder diffraction measurements of the double perovskites La2NaB′O6 (B = Ru5+, Os5+) with S=3/2 on the B¿ reveal an incommensurate magnetic... -
Lipid monolayers at oil/water interfaces at high surface pressure as model bi...

Protein Adsorption at the PDMS Oil/Water Interface
Neutron reflection has been successfully used to measure the conformation of proteins adsorbed at the oil/water interface. However, in several such experiments, hexadecane has... -
H2O transport into the deep Earth: A high P-T study of hydrous Phase-A
The mantle is estimated to be planet Earths most massive volatile (e.g. H, C, S, N) storage reservoir, with interactions between crustal and mantle reservoirs dominate the... -
Self-assembled Floating Lipid Bilayers: What Forces Are Causing the Bilayer t...
Recently (RB19100102) we have discovered that floating bilayers composed of fluid phase lipids can be produced by deposited vesicles onto charge modified oligo(ethylene... -
Phase Separation in Organic Photovoltaic Cells
Organic photovoltaic (OPV) cells have the potential to be the basis of a renewable energy source that is inexpensive and portable. Current state-of-the-art solution-processed... -
Magnetic structure of pyrochlore irridate Y2Ir2O7
We propose to study by powder neutron diffraction the ordered magnetic state of the pyrochlore compound Y2Ir2O7. There is currently an increasing interest in the condensed... -
Adsorption of key functionality at the calcite/water interface
Calcium carbonate is one of the most abundant minerals at the Earths surface and plays a large role in the chemistry of aquatic environments, as well as being the main... -
La dopped EuO
Currently one of the biggest challenges in spintronics is the generation and control of a spin polarized current at room temperature. Spin injection from europium monoxide is of... -
Introducing the O-antigen into Bacterial Outer Membrane Models
The Gram negative bacterial outer membrane protects the bacterium from external toxins such as antibiotics. This is partially responsible for Gram negative bacteria becoming the... -
Nanoparticle-surfactant layers at the water-oil interface
The spontaneous selfassembly of nanoparticles (NP) at liquid-liquid interfaces is a phenomenon present in nature and relevant for many applications, such as, emulsion... -
High Pressure Thermoelastic Properties of Thermoelectric PbSe
We propose to study the effect of pressure and temperature on the crystal structure and the elasticproperties of lead selenide, an important material for conversion of waste... -
The membrane lipid composition regulates the orientation of Tissue Factor ext...
Tissue Factor (TF) is a membrane protein located on the cell surfaces of extravascular cells. TF activity is fundamental for normal homeostasis- the physiological process which... -
In-situ high-resolution study of the Pd-D2 system after passage over the ther...
Our previous HRPD experiment on the Pd-D2 system resolved the long-standing controversy over the occupation of T interstitial sites by D, showing that T sites are occupied owing...
