Spin wave investigation in brownmillerite oxygen deficient perovskite Ca2Fe2O5
The Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction is thought to be responsible for the stabilization of weak ferromagnetism or magnetic spiral states in a number of diverse systems. An... -
Magnetic excitations in mesoporous hematite
We have recently prepared mesoporous forms of various metals oxides. In some cases the imposition of a mesostructure changes other properties of the material significantly. One... -
Melting point dynamics of Confined fluids
This proposal aims to investigate the dynamics of the melting transition in H2O and CO2 when confined in a vycor (SiO2) matrix. The field of fluids in confined geometries is... -
Crystal Field Splitting in Dysprosium Double Decker Single Molecule Magnets
We aim to elucidate the low-energy electronic structure of two distinct dysprosium bisphthalocyanine single-molecule magnets by direct observation of crystal field excitations... -
Can a magnetic transition recently discovered on iron-based Fischer-Tropsch c...
The applicants have used a recent EPSRC award to develop protocols by which INS can be used to investigate methane reforming catalysts. That work is now complete and we have... -
Study of the protein denaturation in glassy matrices
The proposed experiment is addressed to use the MARI spectrometer to study the thermal denaturation process of the psychrophile enzyme alpha-amylase in presence of bioprotectant...
