In situ diffraction studies of cathode materials for Li ion batteries
Li-ion batteries are interesting because they offer high power and, as a consequence, they are preferred to aqueous-based batteries for traction applications e.g. hybrid... -
C-H and H-H Binding in Coordinatively Unsaturated Ruthenium Carbene Complexes
Removal of the chloride ligand from the neutral N-heterocyclic carbene complex Ru(IPr)2(CO)HCl (IPr = bis(1,3-(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene) by NaBArF4 affords the... -
First insights into the hydration of the nootropic drug piracetam by neutron ...
The proposal seeks to investigate the structure and hydration of the nootropic drug piracetam in aqueous solutions by neutron scattering on the SANDALS instrument, with... -
Insulator to metal transition in TiOCl at high pressures
We propose to study the high temperature structure of TiOCl where a pressure induced metal to insulator transition has been reported recently by Kuntscher et al.Due to our... -
ADVANCED POLYMER MATERIALS FOR ENERGY SECURITY (POLYMAT)
This proposal requests time on NIMROD at ISIS to enable the characterisation of polymer nanocomposite interfaces. This information will be used as part of a wider effort for... -
Surfactant aggregation at the solid-Ionic liquid and air ionic-liquid interfaces
The beamtime requested will be used to study the adsorption of a series of non-ionic surfactants at the air-IL interface in order to further understand the aggregation processes... -

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... -
Determination of Exact Structural Symmetries in LaFeAs1-xPxO
LaFeAs1-xPxO has recently been proposed to display unusual properties as a function of P doping with two distinct superconducting (SC) domes separated by a possible AFM phase as... -
Single Crystal Neutron Diffraction Study of a photo-active pyrene derivative
The compound proposed for this study is an interesting example of how strongly spectroscopic properties of pyrene derivatives in the solid state can depend on the crystal... -
The first muSR measurement of magnetism in the T*214 cuprate
We propose the first muSR measurements on T-structured La0.9+x/2Eu0.9+x/2Sr0.2-xCuO4 to investigate the effect of hole-doping and the oxygen annealing on the magnetism. Since...
