We request 5 days on IRIS to investigate the hindrance to molecular rotation of ammonia in a zeolite framework due to hydrogen bonding interactions. This is a tied proposal to...

Both BiFeO3 and KNbO3 are technologically important materials. BiFeO3 exhibs room temperature magnetic and ferroelectric ordering whilst KNbO3 is a lead free ferroelectric....

The present study aims at gathering detailed information on the cisplatin-DNA interaction, particularly with the purine bases, by Inelastic Neutron Scattering spectroscopy, in...

SrAl2O4 is a stuffed tridymite that has attracted a good deal of interest, since doping with Eu2+ leads to a material with elastic-luminescent response. The structure and phase...

Our previous INS experiments on the metal-organic ferrimagnetic compound CrCl2(pyz)2 revealed only a very weak dispersive mode below 1 meV. This energy scale is significantly...

An inelastic neutron scattering experiment is proposed to study magnetic excitation spectra of representative EuCu2(Ge1-xSix)2 samples. These sytems provide the possibility to...

This proposal requests 3 days on Maps to investigate the nature of local structure and proton sites in the proton conducting brownmillerite system Ba2In1.85M0.15O6H2 (M = In,...

The present proposal is to examine the low temperature structural properties of SrSnO3 using the HRPD. This work aims to examine the structural basis for the unusual low...

In collaboration with an industrial partner, the PI is seeking to use INS to help characterise a series of catalysts active for the important Fischer-Tropsch (F-T) process. As...

The C15 YMn2 Laves phase compound can absorb hydrogen under moderate pressure up to 4.5 hydrogens per formula unit. In this case, the hydrogen atoms occupy the interstitial...

Heusler alloys have gained important place in condensed matter physics due to their versatile functional properties such as large magnetoresistance, giant magnetocaloric effect,...

Steering and optimizing catalyst selectivity at ¿ simultaneously - adequate catalyst activity is a continuing challenge in chemical technology and of high economic impact. In...

This experiment will use high resolution neutron diffraction to investigate the crystal and magnetic structure of the cobalt adipate framework, Co(CO2(CH2)4CO2), at lower...

The family of centropolyindanes are created by edge-wise fusing of the cyclopentane ring of several indane units (D. Kuck, Chemical Reviews 2006, 106, 4885-4925)....

Ammonium carbonates, sensu lato, have relevance to carbon capture schemes and as potential hydrogen storage materials. These compounds occur on Earth as minerals and, since...

We propose to map out the spin excitations in La2O2FeOSe2 using the MARI chopper spectrometer on a powder sample. Although the structure of La2O2FeOSe2 has some similarities to...

Magnetically frustrated materials are unable to adopt the regular long-range ordered states observed in conventional insulating transition metal oxides. Instead they tend to...

The present proposal seeks to establish the pressure dependence of the Pbnm-Cmcm transition in NaTaO3 and some doped variants thereof. It aims to understand the understand the...

This proposal will measure vibrational spectra from a series of catalyst samples produced from a pilot plant reactor at Tianjin University China converting dimethylether to...

Pharmaceuticals are usually formulated in the crystalline state for obvious reasons of stability. They may also exist in a disordered and less cohesive state i.e. amorphous...
