Quasi-elastic neutron study of the organic cation dynamics in the halide pero...
Solar cells based on a layer of halide perovskite have recently seen rapid increases in efficiency, with certified values in excess of 20%. The prototypical material of this... -
High-Energy Solitary Magnons in CaFe2O4:
We have recently discovered solitary magnons in the classical magnet CaFe2O4 below 3 meV. in this experiment we propose to extend this to higher energy transfers to track how... -
Exotic spin excitations in a quasi one-dimensional anisotropic Heisenberg magnet
Very recently, string states have been identified for the first time in antiferromagnetic Heisenberg-Ising chain SrCo2V2O8 in longitudinal magnetic fields using high-resolution... -
Spin Dynamics in the isotopically enriched spin ice 162Dy2Ti2O7
In an attempt to study the dynamics of Dy2Ti2O7 measured using muons we have made a sample of 162Dy2Ti2O7 where the 161 and 164 isotopes are reduced to a minimum (max. 0.6% of... -
Microscopic characterization of Ba5AlIr2O11
Iridium-containing oxide magnets are interesting because the different interactions controlling their magnetic properties have similar energies associated with them. This leads... -
Polarised Neutron Reflectometry from Frustrated Nanomagnet Arrays
We propose to study off-specular polarised neutron reflectivity from an array of CoFeB nanostructures. Many groups use Permalloy to form these types of nanostructures, however,... -
Superconductivity and critical spin fluctuations
In a successful recent experiment on IN5 (ILL), we have been able to show that in contrast to commonly accepted wisdom, the excitation gap in nearly optimally doped... -
Simultaneous Microwave Dielectric Spectroscopy and Neutron Diffraction to Mon...
With appropriate storage materials, ammonia has great potential as a fuel. We propose to use a novel piece of equipment, which combines microwave and neutron diffraction... -
Towards the development of carbonitrides as novel two-stage regenerable reage...
We are examining a number of cobalt-molybdenum carbonitrides as possible catalysts for reactions that produce nitrogen-containing organic molecules. There is good evidence that... -
Phonon scattering and the thermal conductivity of zinc oxide
Understanding the thermal conductivity of zinc oxide is of central importance in assessing its potential for a wide variety of applications in optoelectronics, power electronics... -
Tuning confinement potential of spinons in an Ising chain using magnetic fields
The Ising chain realises the fundamental paradigm of spin fractionalization, where locally flipping a spin creates two kinks (spinons) that can separate away at no energy cost,... -
Measurement of the total muonium emission yield from silica aerogel using mus...
The aim of the present beam-time request is to perform a direct measurement of the total muonium emission rate from silica aeeogel to vacuum including the region very close to... -

Induction for POLARIS; first in-beam test
An induction furnace has been developed for POLARIS. It has been tested at ISIS for 3 month during which it has passed all safety test required to be tested in beam. Currently... -
Ultra-rapid microwave materials synthesis in-situ; a microwave reactor for ti...
Microwave techniques are of interest to the materials chemistry community as they allow access to new metastable materials, and offer synthetic routes that are considerably... -
Unveiling the exotic quantum critical point in CeCu6-xAgx
The heavy fermion system CeCu6-xAux is arguably the most important (and studied) heavy fermion series which exhibits a quantum critical point. In recent years several new... -
An In-Situ Study of the Formation of Amyloid Fibrils at Polymer Surfaces Usin...
We propose to study the formation of lateral features during insulin amyloid formation on polymer substrates using off-specular neutron reflectivity. This will be done by... -
In-situ under electric field neutron diffraction at variable (low) temperatur...
Neutron diffraction experiments will be carried out on multiferroic ceramics. What is special about the measurements, is that they will be carried out under an applied electric... -
Fractionalized spin excitation and crystal electric field study in the rare-e...
A new rare-earth triangular quantum spin liquid (QSL) candidate, YbMgGaO4, has an odd number of electrons per unit cell and spin-orbit entangled effective spin-1/2 (Yb3+).... -
Determination of the Spinon Confining Potential in a 1D, Spin-1/2 XXZ Antifer...
SrCo2V2O8 is a quasi-1D, S-1/2 antiferromagnet with XXZ anisotropy. Weak interchains coupling result in long-range magnetic order at a finite temperature TN. A spinon continuum...
