Compressibility and Tilting of Polyhedra within Sr2NiMoO6 at High Pressure
Ordered double perovskites (also known as elpasolites) have the general formula A2BBO6 where A is generally a rare earth metal or alkaline earth metal and where B and B are... -
Equation of state and phase transitions of the cubic NTE material Cd(CN)2
Despite being the material showing the largest isotropic NTE, Cd(CN)2 is remarkably little studied, particularly compared to isostructural Zn(CN)2 and the canonical NTE material... -
Spin Waves in the Parent Compound of the Superconductor FeSexTe1-x (x=0)
The iron containing superconducting system FeSexTe1-x has a similar phase diagram to the cuprate superconductors, in that a non-superconducting antiferromagnetic parent compound... -
Thermal expansion of hexa-halogenated benzenes: C6Cl6, C6Br6, C6I6.
The aim of the present proposal is to complete a systematic study on the effects of isotopic and chemical substitution on the thermal expansion and vibrational properties of... -
The magnetic excitation spectrum in Fe1.07Te
We propose to investigate the high energy magnetic spectrum in Fe1.07Te. We have previously investigated the fluctuations in Fe1.14Te in the incommensurate phase and have found... -
Misfit and Misfit Release in Co-Co3(Al,W) Superalloys
The effect of alloying additions (Ni, Fe, Cr, Ta, Mo, V, Ti, Si) on the misfit of developmental Co-Al-W alloys will be examined using Polaris. The Co3(Al,W) precipitate phase... -
Surface adsorption of lipopeptides: interfacial layer structure
Lipopeptide surfactants are highly effective at reducing interfacial tension. However, there is a general lack of understanding of the relationship between their molecular... -

A high-temperature neutron powder determination of the phase transition and c...
Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) is a solar cell material of great interest. However the material when fabricated, although of high symmetry, contains substantial defect concentration and a... -
Phase behaviour and dielectric phenomena in bismuth niobate energy storage ma...
Bismuth niobate (BiNbO4) is widely used in multilayer RF and microwave components such as capacitors and chip layer capacitors. This compound exhibits two main structural forms... -
Structure of oil-in-water microemulsions containing eutectic mixtures of ment...
Although microemulsions have been widely investigated as potential drug delivery vehicles, relatively little work has been performed establishing the detailed molecular... -

Intra-block magnetic excitations in KFe0.8Ag1.2Te2
KFe0.8Ag1.2Te2 is made of 2x2 squares of Fe atoms, upon lowering temperature the system spontaneously undergoes a transition that breaks the fourfold rotational symmetry. A... -
Onset of classical dynamics in ammonium hexachlorometallates.
The piloting experiment (RB 820239) on VESUVIO on (NH4)2PdCl6, has shown that, at 5 and 80K, H momentum distribution, J(y), in NH4+ is non-Gaussian with non-vanishing... -
First experiment with a pulsed field magnet at ISIS or how to break the 15T b...
We propose to use a pulsed magnet system tried and tested at several neutron and synchrotron facilities in conjunction with the new high flux diffractometer WISH to perform the... -
Investigating the uptake of cyclohexanone oxime in hierarchically-porous cata...
Sustainable technologies for polymer manufacture remain an important target of catalyst research. Thus, we have developed a hierarchically-porous (HP) SAPO (containing... -
Possible amorphous:amorphous phase separation in bioactive glass containing s...
There is an interest in understanding the nature of fluoro-alumino-silicate glasses based upon the apatite stoichiometric composition and of potential within ionomer cements for... -
Magnetic and Structural Studies on Oxychalcogenides
In this proposal we request 3 days of beam time on HRPD to study the structures (both atomic and magnetic) of a variety of oxychalcogenide phases: La2O2Se2Fe2O, Ce2O2Se2Mn and... -
Tilting transition and dimensionality crossover of anion chain order in Ba1-x...
Transition metal oxynitride perovskites are an emerging class of functional materials. However, their oxide/nitride ordering principles were unclear until a recent study of the... -
Hourglass dispersion in overdoped manganites
Overdoped manganites were recently shown to exhibit stripe-like ordering of charges orbitals and magnetic moments. The magnetic excitations in these materials show close...
