Aggregation behaviour in solution of cationic conjugated polymers and oligomers
In the proposed experiments we extend previous work on characterization of aggregates formed by cationic conjugated polymers and oligomers in water. Particular emphasis will be... -
Defects and Medium-Range Disorder in the Metal¿Organic Framework UiO-66
We wish to use NIMROD to study the distribution and nature of defect sites in the high-thermal-stability metal-organic framework UiO-66. For the most part, defect structures in... -
Determination of the structure of methoxy on eta-alumina
We have recently demonstrated that we are able to obtain structural information about adsorbed hydrogenous species from a variety of metal catalysts. We emphasise that this is a... -
Investigation of hydrogen/nickel and hydrogen/cobalt interactions in new meta...
Raney-nickel type catalysts are some of the most versatile technical agents for efficient hydrogenation reactions. Raney-type catalysts based on Fe, Co, Ru and other metals have... -
Phonon-Liquid-Electron Crystal Behaviour in Cu8GeSe6
Thermoelectric devices enable the conversion of thermal energy into electrical power. The development of new materials is essential to enable large scale implementation of... -
Probing the origin of low thermal conductivity in thermoelectric materials
Thermoelectric materials are increasingly attracting attention due to their potential for use in devices for waste heat energy recovery. Bismuth copper oxychalcogenides have... -
Alkali ions dependent collective excitations in borate glasses
Recently, it has been suggested that the First Sharp Diffraction Peak (FSDP) in glasses arises from a quasi-periodicity of void spaces in the structure, that plays the role of... -
The Structure of Ce-Doped TiO2 Photocatalysts
Our aim is to build atomic-scale models for the structures of some new materials that have useful properties for photocatalytic water splitting, an important contemporary area... -
Interaction of a small protein with water and other solutes: The case of Glut...
The tripeptide glutathione (GSH) is present in cells at millimolar concentrations, and the ratio of GSH to glutathione disulfide (GSSG) is critical to cellular redox balance.... -
Short range magnetic correlations in Gd3Ga5O12
In recent years topologically complex materials have provoked questions about the basic models of magnetism. These materials have given rise to unusual phenomena, including... -
Atomic structure of amorphous alumina Al2O3
Solid alumina Al2O3 has many industrial applications. Recently it was found that porous anodic alumina film formed by anodizing aluminium in an appropriate acidic/alkaline... -

Mixed alkali environment in chalcohalide glasses for optical applications
Heavy alkali halide sulphide and selenide glasses are promising hosts for active and passive optical devices. Lithium and sodium chalcohalide glasses exhibit high ionic... -
Ion Binding in Tetradecyltrimethylammonium Surfactant Micelle Solutions
This proposal continues our studies of surfactant micelles using NIMROD, to obtain previously inaccessible details of headgroup-ion interactions. In our previous experiments... -
Structural changes of PdRu alloy nanoparticles caused by catalytic reactions
We are proposing 4 days of beamtime on GEM/Polaris to conduct the neutron powder diffraction experiments on PdRu alloy nanoparticles supported on CZ (CeO2-ZrO2) before and after... -
Competitive interactions in polymer-particle-surfactant blends
Many formulations comprise distinct chemical species that exhibit antagonistic or synergistic interactions that result in unpredictable behaviour. Previous work from our group... -
Silica perturbation of the water structure around cationic micelles during te...
This proposal continues a new direction in our research on surfactant-templated inorganic materials. These nanostructured materials contain ordered arrays of surfactant micelles... -
