Superstructures in lithium cobaltate
The battery material LixCoO2 has recently been shown to have high thermopower comparable to NaxCoO2 at high x. In the case of NaxCoO2 we showed using neutron Laue diffraction on... -
Modelling the Structure of Metal-organic Framework Glasses
We have recently demonstrated the glass-forming ability of the family of hybrid micro-porous materials known as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Specifically, a family known as... -
The physics of detergency at low temperature: neutron reflection to reveal su...
Although surfactant detergency is well understood above 30 C, actions of surfactants below 30 C are not well established. In the era of energy saving and environment caring, we... -
Detailed Measurements of the Crystalline Electric Field of Shastry-Sutherland...
We are proposing to accurately map out the crystal electric field (CEF) levels in NdB4, ErB4 and HoB4 using MARI. These compounds belong to a family, REB4, which is a rare... -
Neutron Diffraction study of Highly Frustrated SrEr2O4
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... -
Crystal and magnetic structures of new 2D and 3D oxyselenides La2O2Se2M (M = ...
In this proposal we request 4 days of beamtime on GEM to study four new transition metal oxyselenide materials. Two new layered oxyselenides, La2O2Se2Mn and La2O2Se2Fe have been... -
Probing the [FeFe]-hydrogenase using muon spectroscopy
During our previous experiment on HiFi (RB1320541) we measured the ALC spectrum of the Fe2(µ-pdt)(CO)4(PMe3)2 model hydrogenase complex over multiple temperatures. The spectra... -
Complex structural modelling of amorphous [Au(SPh)]n and [M(1,2,4-triazole)2(...
Coordination polymers (CPs) with reversible phase changes between amorphous and crystalline states have recently become of interest for potential Phase-Change Memory... -
Characterisation of Lithium-ion battery cathode material LiCoMnO4 as prepared...
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,... -
Slow magnetic fluctuations and superconductivity in CeRhIn5 at ambient pressu...
CeRhIn5 is an antiferromagnetic itinerant magnet which illustrates a temperature and pressure interplay between antiferromagnetism and superconductivity. Recently, it has been... -
Kinetics of protein and protein mixture adsorption at the air/water interface
Many proteins exhibit a lag in lowering the surface tension at the air-water interface. The origin of this lag is not well understood either experimentally or theoretically. The... -
Microemulsion formulations for local anaesthesia
Although microemulsions have been investigated as potential drug delivery vehicles, little work has been performed establishing the detailed molecular architecture of the... -
Interfacial / surface retention / delivery of perfumes from different surface...
This proposal is part of a funded (CASE) project, aimed at understanding the delivery of benefit actives (perfumes) to interfaces and the development of new self-assembled... -
Short range order Ge-S and Ge-(Ga,Sb)-S glasses
Ge-(Ga,Sb)-S glasses are widely used in infrared optics. Despite the practical importance their short range order is still not understood completely. The main problem is that... -
Copy of: The Effect of Pressure on the Crystal Structure Titanium Tetrachloride
At ambient pressure and temperature TiCl4 is a fuming yellow liquid. On cooling it forma a solid composed of essentially isolated tetrahedral molecules; the same structure is... -
Probing Ligand Flexibility using Quasielastic Neutron Scattering
Transition metal catalysts are ubiquitous in the academic and industrial study and application of synthetic chemistry. The properties of these catalysts can be augmented by... -
Quantification of hydrocarbonaceous overlayers relevant to the induction of i...
Recent experiences applying INS to examine a series of nickel-based methane reforming catalysts have enabled a generic experimental methodology to be developed. In collaboration... -
Simultaneous Microwave Dielectric Spectroscopy and Neutron Diffraction to Mon...
With appropriate storage materials, ammonia has great potential as a fuel. We propose to use a novel piece of equipment, which combines microwave and neutron diffraction...
