Growth of silica-surfactant particles during surfactant-templated silica synt...
Surfactant templated silicates are formed by the polymerization of silica around surfactant micelles in solution. Our previous SANS experiments show development of the initial... -
Testing the efficacy of the spin echo technique combined with the dynamical t...
The sensitivity of the Spin Echo Resolved Grazing Incidence Scattering (SERGIS) to scattering geometry and sample specifications has been tested at OFFSPEC on gratings with... -
Comparison Phase-object approximation and dynamical scattering theory
X-ray, electron and neutron scattering techniques have been used for the structural characterization of surfaces and embedded morphologies. Several theories have been developed... -
Copy of: An Investigation of Interfacial Structure of Pluronics at Solid-Liqu...
Tri-block copolymers offer an excellent model system for the study of crystallization in the bulk as well as close to interfaces. It is known that the structures formed by this... -
Phase separation of hydrocarbon-fluorocarbon surfactants at the air/water int...
Off-specular neutron reflection beamtime is requested to study phase separation at the air/water interface. Stability of systems, such as polymers, is a major area of interest... -
Using SERGIS, SESANS and NR to probe nanoscale cavities created within templa...
Nanoporous membranes fabricated by polymerization around soluble templates have found many applications in (bio)sensors, charge storage devices, filtration and catalysis.... -
Tuning the Magnetic Properties of γ-Fe2O3 Fe3O4 Thin Films for Atom Tr...
In this work we will investigate how the magnetic properties of nanometer thick iron-oxide films can be manipulated by heating them in air. Our preliminary results indicate that... -
Determining the nanostructure of PCBM in thin film photovoltaics
Organic photovoltaics (OPVs) are a low cost alternative to existing photovoltaic materials. The efficiency of OPVs is steadily increasing towards the point where their cost per... -
SESANS study of phase segregation in microemulsion polymerisations
Spin echo small-angle neutron scattering (SESANS) beamtime is requested to study the growth of polymer nanolatices in novel microemulsion systems. The natural incompatibility of... -
Investigating the Influence of Polymer Properties on Cyclic Peptide-Polymer C...
Cyclic peptides with alternating side chain stereochemistry are capable of self-assembling into long nanotubes (CPNTs). The conjugation of polymers to these peptides renders the... -
Quasi-elastic neutron scattering using Neutron Spin echo
We propose a measurement of the effectiveness of using the RF flippers on Offspec in a quasi-elastic mode (theta=90°) with the RF at 0.5MHz. This is important to our future... -
Using SESANS to complete our understanding of the structural basis for the rh...
Molten chocolate is a dense suspension of solids (mainly sugar) in oil, to which surfactants have been added to improve the flow properties, either during manufacture or in the... -
Determining the nanostructure of the active layer in thin film organic photov...
Organic photovoltaics are a low cost alternative to existing photovoltaic materials and their efficiency is steadily increasing towards the point where their cost per Watt is... -
Microstructure of Homoeopathic Organic Solar Cells
Much progress has been made researching organic solar cells (OSC) in the last two decades, but the field still holds surprises. Until recently, the general assumption was that... -
The structure of mucin at large distances - a spin-echo SANS study
Mucus is a bio-gel, an opaque and slimy secretion that forms a continuous ¿blanket¿ adherent to epithelial surfaces in mammalian organs (eye, nose, conductive airways,... -
Critical Opalescence in Binary Liquid Mixtures
In this proposal, we would like to investigate how a binary organic mixture approaches its critical point over unprecedented length and time scales, from the micron range down... -
Structure of Hard Sphere Colloids in Nano-Confinements
In a previous OFFSPEC experiment we showed that when a suspension of 100-nm-diameter, charge-stabilized silica particles suspended in a refractive-index-matched solvent is... -
SE-SANS investigation of natural shale swelling under oil-well conditions
Water-based drilling fluids are increasingly being used for oil and gas exploration. Unfortunately, their use leads to clay swelling which occurs in exposed sedimentary rocks...
