A high-temperature neutron powder determination of the phase transition and c...
Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) is a solar cell material of great interest. However the material when fabricated, although of high symmetry, contains substantial defect concentration and a... -
Magnetic scattering for strain-induced martensite detection in duplex stainle...
The investigation is aimed to confirm the non-diffusive process known as strain-induced martensite formation which could manifest itself in Duplex Stainless Steel (DSS) during... -
Diffraction of potassium-intercalated graphitic nanofibres with hydrogen
Nanostructured carbons are promising precursors for a high-capacity reversible hydrogen storage material with fast kinetics, but the interaction of H2 with pure graphite is too... -
Unusual polymorphism in sodalites
We have recently observed extraordinary polymorphism on cooling various sodalites under vacuum. Materials undergo a phase transition followed by a fully reversible... -
A variable temperature study of polymorphism in Li2+2xM1-xSiO4 electrode mate...
There is great interest in scaling up Li-ion batteries for use in electric vehicles, requiring cheap andsafe cathodes. Recently, silicate-based cathodes have been described,... -

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... -
Local Structure in Neodymium Doped Ceria
Doped cerias are currently being used as oxide ion conducting electrolyte materials in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). The conduction mechanism in electrolytes is dependent on... -
Quantitative determination of the Bragg edge transmission analysis of 9 steel...
The Bragg edge transmission (BET) analysis is a technique exploiting the presence, position and shape of the edges which form in time of flight transmitted neutron beams. This... -
Magnetic structures of antiferromagnetic heavy fermion CeAuAl3 and CeCuAl3 co...
CeAuAl3 and CeCuAl3 compounds crystallize in the tetragonal I4mm, BaNiSn3-type and display interesting bulk properties. Here we propose to investigate the magnetic structures of... -
COMPOSITION AND MICROSTRUCTRUE OF TERNARY COPPER ALLOYS TO IMPROVE A NON-DEST...
Antique objects made of Cu-Sn or Cu-Zn alloys have been widely characterised by neutron diffraction. However, the employment of binary alloys gave way to the use of more common... -
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,... -
Crystal structures of methanol mono-ammoniate (CD3OD.ND3) and methanol hemi-a...
Mixtures of methanol with water and ammonia dominate the chemistry of cometary bodies, leftovers of the building blocks of the outer planets. We have previously determined the... -
Diffraction 'artifacts' due to shape, size and thickness variation in copper,...
In relation to TOF flight neutrondiffraction experiments conducted on Renaissance sculpture, we are proposing a systematic study of controlled shape, size and thickness effects... -
Determining elemental phosphorus contents in bloomery iron standards as a fun...
The proposed measurements aim to determine the behaviour of the structural parameters of iron-phosphorus alloys as a function of P-content, in order to have a reliable... -
Polymer electrolyte morphology investigated by SANS
Polymer electrolytes constitute a promising class of materials for rechargeable Li-batteries. The ionic conductivity behavior is dependent on the local morphology of the... -
Crystal-chemical environment of lithium atoms in battery anode materials
We want to investigate and Rietveld-refine the crystal structures of a number of lithium titanates and niobates of interest as battery anode materials. Some of these phases have...
