Neutron Diffraction Studies on Li-rich or Ni-rich Layered Oxides Cathode Mate...
Lithium-rich or Ni-rich layered oxides cathode materials have attracted great attentions owing to their high specific capacity for lithium-ion batteries. But the poor rate... -
Effect of material anisotropy on strain evolution during elastic-plastic frac...
This experiment will investigate the relationship between microstructure and macro-scale mechanical properties of an additive manufactured nickel-based superalloy. We will use... -
Unravelling the mechanisms of negative thermal in γ-Mg(11BD4)2
We request 2 days on HRPD to perform a detailed study of the low temperature behaviour of γ-Mg(11BD4)2 in order to measure the change lattice parameter as a function of... -
Thermal ionization of bond-centred muonium in diamond
Our previous LF-µSR measurements in natural type Ia single crystal diamond showed some evidence of the ionization of bond-centred muonium (MuBC) from around 1000K. This was... -
The phase diagram of the spin-density-wave metamagnet Sr3Ru2O7
Sr3Ru2O7 is an unusual layered oxide metamagnetic metal. It has been know for some time that the application of a large magnetic field (~8 T) perpendicular to the RuO2 planes... -
Hydrogenation of frustrated Lewis pairs in solution
It has been postulated that 'Frustrated Lewis Pairs' react after associating in an encounter complex held by dispersion forces, and that is it is this complex that interacts,... -
Dirac Point and Topological Triplon Bands in the Shastry-Sutherland Material ...
SrCu$_2$(BO$_3$)$_2$ (SCBO) is a very much studied quantum magnet that is most well known for its ground state of coupled singlets and multiple magnetization plateaux. Recently,... -
Textured magnetic phases at a ferromagnetic quantum phase transition
Quantum critically is a unifying theme across correlated electron physics. Classical or thermal phase transitions occur at nonzero temperature and are driven by thermal... -
Nematic spin fluctuations in tetragonal La2-xSrxCuO4
Uniaxial stress has been used to study the Fe-based superconductors with spectacular results. Both the transport properties and the low-energy magnetic excitations have been... -
Effect of temperature on the structure of model wax films as studied by neutr...
Cuticular wax films protect plants by mediating water and nutrient transport from the environment. Surfactant is a key ingredient in agrisprays that can promote the uptake of... -
Using QLCR to Study Stopping Sites in Molecular Solids
Muon nuclear quadrupolar level crossing resonance is not a well-known technique, however it is extremely powerful. There is a large interest in probing the muon stopping site... -

Investigation of the excitation spectrum in the 1D distorted diamond chain Az...
We propose to investigate the excitation spectrum of azurite in both zero field and applied fields up to 7T. Using inelastic neutrons on OSIRIS we hope to clearly resolve the... -
Exploring colloidal assembly in periodic nano-confinements using neutron spin...
Colloids in confinements have structural and dynamic properties in some cases very different from bulk properties. In particular, when the width of the confinement is few times... -
Microscopic structure of acetic acid in water and methanol
Some of the most important chemical reactions involve Brønsted acids and bases where the solvation structure and transport dynamics of charged defects in hydrogen-bonded... -
The structural role of carbonate groups in glass
We request GEM beamtime to study the structure of samples of sodium silicate glass with and without CO3 carbonate groups. The presence of CO3 carbonate groups in the glasses is... -
High temperature superstructures in thermoelectric oxides
Sodium cobalate has emerged as one of the best thermoelectric materials. Our previous neutron Laue diffraction studies on SXD have found ordered arrays of multivacancy clusters,... -
In-situ study of mechanism for magnetovolume effect in Cr-Fe alloys
Negative thermal expansion (NTE) materials, the volume of a material abnormally contract with the increase of temperature, is closed related to the magnetovolume effect (MVE) in... -
SANS study on the aggregation behavior of aza-crown-water soluble conjugated ...
Water-soluble conjugated polymers (WSCP) are an important class of materials which have received great attention as active materials in optoelectronic devices and in biosensing.... -
Violation of y-scaling in D2 ¿ Test of existing theories
The applicants aim to perform the most authoritative measurements of NCS profiles by controlling and precisely quantifying everything to do with the sample. In July 2008 we...
