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... -
Neutron diffraction study of local and mesoscopic disorder induced by La and ...
The accurate determination of the defect structure of rare earth (RE) doped ceria solid electrolytes is fundamental for the comprehension of oxygen diffusion and charge... -
IN-SITU NEUTRON DIFFRACTION STUDIES OF METAL-HYDRIDE HYDROGEN STORAGE MATERIALS
Hydrogen storage is considered to be one of the principal technological barriers in the transition towards a hydrogen-based economy. In this proposal, we plan to look at the key... -
Pair distribution function analysis of stacking disorder in ice
Very recently, the metastable cubic ice phase was renamed to stacking-disordered ice (ice Isd) in order to emphasise the fact that this form of ice contains not only cubic... -
Cation-Exchanged Layered Polar Perovskite Oxides (Magnetic)
Multiferroic materials - those which exhibit spontaneous and switchable electrical and magnetic polarizations - have a wide range of applications. However preparing new... -
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... -
Structural Models of the Polymorphs of Gallium Oxide
Gallium oxide is an apparently simple oxide that has been reported to exist as at least 5 polymorphs all of which are stable at room temperature. Structural models, however, for... -
Magnetism and structural distortions in the Sr(2-x)Ba(x)NiOsO6 system
The magnetism of double perovskites can be amazingly sensitive to subtle distortions of their structures. Previous studies have shown that Ca2NiOsO6 is a ferrimagnet, Sr2NiOsO6... -
Neutron diffraction studies of nano-diamond particles
Nano-diamond particles are synthesised by detonation of TNT and Hexogen, resulting in a shockwave which produces diamond nanoparticles with an average size of around 5 nm,... -
Low-temperature incommensurate magnetic structure study of magneto-dielectric...
The interplay between spin, charge, orbital, and lattice degrees of freedoms in SrMn1-xWxO3 (X= 0.1625, 0.175) produce the charge and/or spin density waves (CDW, SDW) modulated... -

Neutron diffraction studies of incommensurate charge ordered phase Pr0.20Sr0....
The occurrence of multiferroic properties in incommensurately charge and magnetic ordered phases in the narrow band Pr1-xCaxMnO3 has freshly steered the search of newer such... -
Spin anisotropy of Seff=1/2 triangular rare-earth based antiferromagnets
The rise of quantum materials observed in the past decades has been a source of great excitement for condensed matter scientists, with the flourishing of new concepts and... -
Investigation into the Effect of Heating Rates on Recrystallisation Mechanism...
Electrical steels (ES) used in motors and transformers. The major challenge is to optimise themagnetic property of ES to reduce energy waste during service. The crystallographic... -
Dy3Mg2Sb3O14 - a 2D Kagome lattice with Classical Ising Spins
Dy3Mg2Sb3O14 forms a layered structure with magnetic Dy3+ ions forming sheets of corner sharing triangles, called a Kagome lattice. The Ising magnetic moments are constrained to... -
Neutron diffraction experiments on an Etruscan vase
An antique vase from an Etruscan necropolis was made available for neutron-based experiments at ISIS. Preliminary studies on this sample have shown unusual features and opened... -
Understanding low temperature Nd ordering and double magnetization reversal i...
We aim to understand magnetization reversal phenomenon, observed in the NdFeO3 perovskite, by deriving the evolution of Nd3+ and Fe3+ moments ordering from neutron diffraction...
