Investigating Lead Halide Perovskite Solar cells
Lead Halide perovskite solar cells are the next generation of solar cells, likely to over take silicon and organic solar cells in applications within the next 5-10 years. Lead... -
Spinon Confinement and Longitudinal Interchain modes in Yb2Pt2Pb
The f-electron metal Yb2Pt2Pb is best thought of as a one dimensional (1D) quantum spin chain system, despite the fact that the magnetic moments are large and anisotropic with... -
Quantum dynamics in a J_eff=1/2 isotropic triangular-lattice antiferromagnet ...
This proposal is part of our research programme to explore the spin dynamics of strongly-frustrated quantum magnets. A canonical model is the spin-1/2 triangular antiferromagnet... -
Cross coupling between ferroelectricity and antiferromagnetism in the multife...
We propose to investigate the interplay of magnetic and structural properties in the multiferroic PbFe1/2Nb1/2O3 (PFN). PFN is the magnetic analogue of the archetypal lead based... -
Towards Neutron Scattering of Amorphous Materials in the Gigapascal Regime
Over the past few years, extensive developments have been made in the use of neutron diffraction for structural studies of liquids and amorphous materials at high pressure.... -
A µSR study of unconventional spin fluctuation mediated superconductivity in ...
One of us has recently found experimental evidence for unconventional superconductivity in a newly synthesized three-dimensional nearly antiferromagnetic metal, LaAg1−xMnx... -
Excitations of the Zeeman ladder in a transverse field in the Ising antiferro...
The excitations of an Ising antiferromagnetic chain have been studied in the past and are known to form either continuous spectrum or Zeeman ladders. Such a system can be... -
Vacancy Distribution in Praseodymium Doped Ceria
Doped cerias are currently being used as oxide ion conducting electrolyte materials in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). Depending on the nature and concentration of the dopant... -
A pair distribution function study to determine the local structure of the ti...
BaTiO3 is the prototypical ferroelectic perovskite and has been well studied for over 60 years. The standard structural picture is that it is cubic and paraelectric at high... -
Complex ordering in a new polar A-site deficient perovskite
Recent theoretical work has identified that oxygen octahedral rotations (OORs) in layered perovskites such as Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) phases can generate noncentrosymmetry... -
Ligand conformation at semiconductor nanoparticle surfaces for high-efficienc...
The efficiency of silicon solar cells is limited to 29%. One possible way of breaking this limit uses a process called singlet fission, converting a high energy photon into two... -
Ferromagnetic ordering in -[Lanthanide(III)-Radical]n- coordination polymers
The recently synthesised molecular magnet [Sm(hfac)3(boaDTDA)]n is the first metal complex of a thiazyl-based neutral radical ligand to exhibit ferromagnetic ordering, with Tc... -
Origins of flexibility in a zero-thermal-expansion framework
Our proposal is to use neutron total scattering on GEM to study framework flexibility and the phenomenology of the displacive phase transition in the cyanide-containing... -
Local Structure of Bi6WO12 and Bi28Re2O49 Oxide Ion Conductors: Role of Varia...
Oxide ion conductors are technologically important materials with applications in solid oxide fuel cells, oxygen sensors /pumps and membranes for oxygen separation. Two types of... -
Investigation of the spin dynamics of Shastry-Sutherland phase in Ce2-xPd2+yI...
The Shastry-Sutherland lattice (SSL) can be described as a 2D square lattice built up from a network of dimers disposed orthogonally and has been observed in SrCu2(BO2)3.... -
Total scattering study of the orientational phase transition in para-terphenyl
There is currently a resurgence of interest in phase transitions in orientationally disordered molecular crystals. This is partly driven by the fact that new experimental and... -

High pressure behaviour of ammonium carbamate
A number of compounds crystallise in the NH3-H2O-CO2 ternary system, including ammonium carbonates and carbamates, these being closely related to the water-deficient compound... -
Quantum renormalisation of spin waves in a square lattice antiferromagnet
The two dimensional Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a square lattice is one of the most studied model in quantum magnetism . This is in part due to its intrinsic interest but also... -
