Carbohydrates are one of the major classes of biomolecules that make up most of the organic matter on earth and serve as energy stores, fuels and metabolitic intermediates. They...

Calcium carbonates are highly important in geochemistry and especially in biomineralization. In nature, organisms can form each of the anhydrous polymorphs selectively for...

Recently, our group has prepared a series of new double perovskite materials (Li1.5La1.5MO6, M=W6+, Te6+) which display interesting electrochemical behaviour for use in Li-ion...

Among the all known crystalline ice phases, ice (Ih phase) exhibits anomalous thermal expansion behavior. We propose to measure phonon density of state of protonated ice (H2O)...

Recently synthesized new perovskite TlMnO3 is distinct in respect of crystal structure (space group) and orbital ordering from those of the previously known trivalent perovskite...

This is a proposal to determine the magnetic structures of the Rb/NH3 and K/NH3 intercalates of FeSe. These compounds exhibit superconductivity when freshly prepared, but...

Organic ferroelectrics are in the focus of current research because their potential applications as a material to address global challenges. These lightweight, flexible and...

Transition metal hydrides are critically involved in many stoichiometric and catalytic organometallic reactions, such as hydrogenation. In these reactions a crucial step is the...

The response of the magnetic ordering of layered cobalt oxide chalcogenides to changes in electron count will be investigated in detail following a preliminary experiment at...

Complexation is of interest in pharmaceutical field, since it increases solubility and bioavailabilityof drugs. We want to perform a inelastic neutron scattering (INS) study,...

The meta-orbital transition is a new theoretical concept to explain the nature of quantum criticality in heavy-fermion systems. Such a transition can occur e.g. as function of...

We are proposing 10 days of beamtime on IRIS to investigate the diffusion process of H2O molecules adsorbed on polyamide, surface material of reverse osmotic membranes currently...

The perovskite-like family of ammonium formate frameworks AB(HCO2)3, where A is a divalent metal ion and B is an (alkyl)ammonium or guanadinium, is of great interest for its...

In the quest to find high-temperature ferromagnetic topological insulators (TIs), we have explored different transition-metal and rare-earth doped thin film and bulk samples...

We propose to investigate the temperature dependence of magnetic dead-layer thickness in amorphous ferromagnetic CoFeTaB films on Si and GaAs semiconductor substrates. Magnetic...

Exotic ordering phenomena resulting from magnetic frustration continue to attract attention as newtypes of frustrated compounds emerge. A very recent development in this field...

Hollandites (AxM8O16, where A is a large cation and M is a transition metal, here vanadium) have been studied for a wide range of properties, including electronic phenomena such...

We request 5 days on NIMROD to characterise the pressure and temperature dependent properties of amorphous icy particles generated in liquid ethane, as they will be used in...

Quantum critically is a unifying theme across correlated electron physics. Classical or thermal phase transitions occur at nonzero temperature and are driven by thermal...

In recent experiments we accidentally observed the onset of nanophase segregation in concentrated LiCl-water solutions by increasing dilution, in the deeply undercooled regime....
