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... -
PT-phase diagram of ammonium bromide
Ammonium bromide is a fundamental ionic solid that finds practical use, industrially, as a highly-effective flame retardant and also as an intermediary source of bromide in... -
Network compression and pressure-induced amorphisation in Zn(CN)2
Zn(CN)2 is an important material because it shows isotropic NTE over a large temperature range and to an extent more than double that of ZrW2O8. This unusual behaviour... -
Non-uniform elastic deformation of layered crystal structures
The aim of the experiment is to determine the relative compressibility of the structural layers in three 211 MAX phases (Ti2AlC, Ta2AlC and Cr2AlC) using the PEARL-HiPr beam... -

A high pressure study of the novel hybrid improper ferroelectric HgMn7O12
We have recently discovered how a novel type of hybrid improper ferroelectricity can arise in the perovskite HgMn3Mn412. This ferroelectricity is driven by a highly unusual... -
Recovery and characterisation of high-pressure phases in the systems H2O ¿ NH...
The objective of this experiment is to characterise four particular high-pressure polymorphs of various hydrates discovered by us in recent years during work carried out using...
