In situ studies of mixed-phase oxygen transport membranes
The oxygen transport membrane is a system being developed by St Andrews in conjunction with industry, which at high temperatures will allow the selective migration of oxygen... -
Understanding the decomposition of ammonia by lithium-calcium imide
Among light metal amide-imide catalysts for ammonia decomposition, lithium-calcium imide is the most promising candidate for practical application. Ex situ diffraction data... -
In-situ Hydrogenation of Calcium Nitride
Nitrides of alkali and alkaline earth metals are an interesting set of materials specifically for their potential in reversible hydrogen storage. However, many fundamental... -
Unpicking the signal of partial order from thermal motion in diffuse scatteri...
Orientationally-disordered water molecules in ice adopt a degree of partial order upon cooling, a process that is halted by kinetics at ~100 K in pure ice and ~60 K in KOH-doped... -
Pressure-induced proton migration in an energetic co-crystal
The results of these studies will provide valuable information on the effects of extreme conditions on the structures of an energetic salt and co-crystal formed between... -
In Situ High Pressure NMR study of the Direct Synthesis of NaAlH4
NaAlH4 has been a model system for metal hydride hydrogen storage materials since the reaction was identified to be reversible. The decomposition pathway has been described by a... -
Determination of type-2 cycloidal ordering in BiFeO3 thin films
Multiferroics have recently aroused a large interest in the community, opening the route to promising applications especially in spintronics. Among multiferroics, BiFeO3 (BFO)... -
Does the viscosity of the sub-phase effect the oxidation kinetics of surface ...
Atmospheric climate change is strongly influenced by clouds and the oxidative processing of pollutants in clouds affects droplet size and reflectivity of the planet. Clouds... -
Spin excitations in LiFeAs, a stoichiometric ferropnictide superconductor at ...
We propose to measure the powder-averaged spin excitation spectrum of LiFeAs, a new member of the ferropnictide family of superconductors. This compound is special because it is... -
Investigation of a frustrated quantum magnet with novel interaction scheme
SrCuTe2O6 consists of a 3-dimensional arrangement of spin-1/2 Cu ions that are coupled into network of isolated triangles,a highly frustrated hyperkagome lattice consisting of... -
DNA unwinding mechanism of the archaeal helicase PabMCM in its octameric conf...
The process of cell division requires precise duplication of the genetic material. The separation of the two strands of DNA and the progression of the replisome are driven by... -
In-situ Formation of Fast Lithium Conducting garnets via low temperature sol-...
Increasing global population, global warming and depletion of fossil fuels have resulted in a growing need for better energy storage. Lithium-ion batteries are promising devices... -
Towards the development of carbonitrides as novel two-stage regenerable reage...
We are examining a number of cobalt-molybdenum carbonitrides as possible catalysts for reactions that produce nitrogen-containing organic molecules. There is good evidence that... -

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... -
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... -
The Interaction of Ammonia with Binary and Ternary Nitrides
We request 2 days on GEM in conjunction with the IGAn apparatus to investigate the formation of lithium amide (LiNH2) from the interaction of Li3N with ammonia (ND3), and the... -
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...
