Small Angle Neutron Scattering Study of the Adsorption of Amine ¿functionalis...
Amine-functionalised poly(alkylene oxides) are used extensively as swelling inhibitors in water-based drilling fluids. This study will broaden our understanding of the mechanism... -
Characterisation of the gamma prime precipitate distribution in an advanced N...
The excellent high temperature properties of Ni-base superalloys are derived from the presence of fine precipitates of the intermetallic Ni3Al phase, termed gamma prime. The... -
The influence of chemical pressure on the helimagnetic correlatations and sky...
The recent discovery of skyrmions and skyrmion lattices in materials with no inversion symmetry and their corresponding potential applications of Skyrmions in magnetic... -
SANS to Monitor the Accessibility of Electrolytes into Aqueous Based Supercap...
Supercapacitors are devices capable of absorbing and delivering large amounts of energy over short time-scales. They are ideal for high-power/low-energy applications such as... -
Nanostructure definition in electrospun fibres of polymer blends
This proposal is part of a research programme which is focused on nano-fibres prepared by electrospinning. The programme is centered on the spinning... -
Measurement of gravitation-induced quantum interference
We propose to perform accurate measurements of the quantum gravitational effect for OffSpec. We would like to investigate if a similar discrepancy between quantum system gravity... -

Understanding an-harmonic behaviour in lyophilised proteins - a high energy r...
By combining OSIRIS/IN16 elastic window and QENS data we better understand dynamics in lyophilised apoferritin. This complimentary approach reveals that the observed decrease in... -
Methyl iodide (CH3I) removal using high-surface area activated carbons: moist...
During the operation of nuclear plants, several fission products are released. Among them, radioiodine is considered one of the most important due to its tendency to form... -
Phase behaviour in lanthanum antimony niobate proton conductors
Antimony substituted lanthanum niobium oxide is a recently developed proton conductor with potential use in fuel cells, gas sensors and steam electrolysers Our preliminary work... -
Water Binding and Solvent Dynamics in Natural Deep Eutectic Solvents
Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES) are molecular mixtures similar to ionic liquids, having melting points below room temperature. However instead of being composed of a salt, the... -
Composition dependent structure in mixtures of water and hydrogen bonded mono...
This is part of a project concerning the interplay between water and other H-bonded liquids using a range of complementary experimental techniques, e.g. dielectric spectroscopy,... -
Neutron scattering of coke deposits on catalytic samples - MAPS
Catalysts used for water-gas shift reactions, and other important industrial processes, often suffer from deposition of hydrocarbon and carbon species (coking) to reduce their... -
Probing bulk heterojunction (BHJ) thin films with graded morphologies using SANS
This projects aims to contribute to a better understanding of the relationship between processing conditions, active layer morphology and device performance in polymer solar... -
Correlating local structure with properties in piezoelectrics, and multiferro...
Discovery and development of advanced materials requires understanding and control of the relationship between composition, structure and function. Traditionally, design has... -
A total scattering study of the concentration and temperature dependence of s...
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are ubiquitous in our portable electronics, however they are ill suited for applications where cost or sustainability are of paramount importance,... -
Effect of framework substitution on the thermal conductivity of skutterudites
Sustainable energy-conversion technologies are important for ensuring our energy supply against declining fossil fuel reserves. Thermoelectric materials offer great potential... -
Structural investigations of low-temperature "trapped solutions" of C60 fulle...
We propose a series of neutron scattering measurement to determine the water structure in amorphous H2O/C60 fullerene vapour deposits. We believe that these samples, prepared by... -
Rotational dynamics in the ferroelectric and giant barocaloric (NH4)2SO4
Barocaloric materials, in which a large isothermal entropy change is associated with a pressure induced phase transition, offer an alternative to vapour-compression technologies... -
µSR studies of free radical reactions by non-thermal microwave effects
We plan to study the non-thermal microwave (MW) effects on H2O2 through its reaction with muonium under MW irradiation. The key objectives are 1) for the first time definitively...
