Ordered double perovskites (also known as elpasolites) have the general formula A2BB’O6 where A is generally a rare earth metal or alkaline earth metal and where B and B’ are...

Lipid compositional variation across the cell's membranes as well as asymmetry between two contiguous monolayers in the same membrane are critical for alive and healthy cells....

This proposal is part of our research programme to explore the spin dynamics of strongly-frustrated quantum antiferromagnets. A canonical model system is the spin-1/2 triangular...

We propose continued study of the muonium emission from silica aerogel using Muonium Spin Rotation (MuSR) following success of the proof-of-principle measurement. This time, we...

The proteins of the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria are critical for bacterial survival, from providing basic physiological functions, to impairing virulence and...

We are proposing to characterize the short range magnetic correlations and dynamics in a single crystal of Yb3Ga5O12, a geometrically frustrated spin liquid candidate. We have...

Ionic liquids are of interest to chemistry and material sciences because of their designer properties.The protic ionic liquids (PILs) are excellent proton carriers in fuel cell...

Here we propose to study the Janus character of self-assembled amphiphilic nanoparticles. For that amphiphilic core-shell nanoparticles will be synthesized with a surface...

Understanding how nanoparticles interact with lipid bilayers will potentially have high impact on the development of new drug delivery systems, and on the investigation of their...
