Multiferroic materials - those which exhibit spontaneous and switchable electrical and magnetic polarizations - have a wide range of applications. However preparing new...

Sr2IrO4 is an important material in condensed matter physics, displaying a novel Jeff=½ Mott insulating state and being a rare comparative system for understanding the high...

We propose to measure the neutron diffraction pattern of a single crystal sample of SrEr2O4, using the WISH diffractometer. As the magnetic Er ions in this compound are linked...

After an almost forty year lull in research on multiferroic materials, there has been a resurgence of interest in them. However, it is particularly challenging to synthesize a...

Sr2IrO4 is an important material in condensed matter physics, displaying a novel Jeff=½ Mott insulating state and being a rare comparative system for understanding the high...

The composition dependent structure of glasses in the B2O3-GeO2 system will be measured by employing the method of neutron diffraction with Ge isotope substitution. This system...

Transition metal oxynitrides with the perovskite structure type are an emerging class of functional materials with a variety of interesting optical, photocatalytic, dielectric...

CeAuAl3 and CeCuAl3 compounds crystallize in the tetragonal I4mm, BaNiSn3-type and display interesting bulk properties. Here we propose to investigate the magnetic structures of...

Ionic liquids (ILs) are low melting point organic salts that until recently were thought to have homogeneous microstructure. In recent SANDALS research,1 we showed pure ILs are...

Gallium oxide is an apparently simple oxide that has been reported to exist as at least 5 polymorphs all of which are stable at room temperature. Structural models, however, for...

Coordination polymers (CPs) with reversible phase changes between amorphous and crystalline states have recently become of interest for potential Phase-Change Memory...

Y-doped BaZrO3 has been identified as a promising potential candidate as an electrolyte materialfor proton conduction in intermediate temperature fuel cells. In the temperature...

Quantum spin liquids (QSL) are new and exotic states of matter that in 2 dimensions were proposed by Anderson to underpin the transition to unconventional superconductivity of...

LiCoMnO4 is a spinel material of great interest for possible applications in the next generation of lithium-ion batteries. LiCoMnO4 exhibits electrochemical activity at 5 volts,...

Crown ethers are cyclic molecules formed by joining ether groups into a ring. These compounds have many interesting solution properties, including their ability to bind strongly...

The magnetism of double perovskites can be amazingly sensitive to subtle distortions of their structures. Previous studies have shown that Ca2NiOsO6 is a ferrimagnet, Sr2NiOsO6...

We will study the origins of the solubility of problematic anionic species (sulphate and chloride) in borosilicate glasses representative of real-world radioactive waste...

We have devoted much efforts to investigating the doping evolution of the magnetic excitations in electron doped BaFe2-xNixAs2 (x=0-0.6). Spin excitations for x=0-0.6 have been...

We aim to investigate the solvation of iron oxide and zinc oxide in an environmentally friendly deep eutectic solvent system in order to understand how to engineer these new...

Transition metals (TMs) and their complexes are current examples of such materials which show new functionality, improved performances and greater versatility and have become...
