Vibrational properties of hydrogen in niobium oxide
Niobium oxide based compounds have superior catalytic properties. Research to get an inside into the physical properties of hydrogen is extremely difficult as hydrogen in Nb2O5... -
Oxide ion vacancy distribution in A site substituted defect pyrochlores.
Electrolytes based on pyrochlores such as Ln2M2O7 (M = Ti, Zr, Hf) have attracted attention due to their relative stability combined with relatively high ionic conductivity at... -
In-situ studies of alkaline earth nitride deuterides
Heavy alkaline earth nitride hydrides (AE2NH, with AE = Ca and Ba) are of interest due to their potential suitability as electrolyte materials in a variety of electrochemical... -

We propose to study the structures of Li2NiGe3O8 and Li2ZnGe3O8 using variable temperature high resolution powder neutron diffraction, with the intention of locating the Li... -
In Search of Superionic Conductivity of Mg2+ Cations
The migration of cations with a charge greater than 1 has received very little attention historically, perhaps due to no commercially driven demand for the research as well as... -
The use of INS to evaluate evolutionary processes associated with bringing ir...
In collaboration with a major provider of Fischer-Tröpsch synthesis (FTS) catalytic technology, the research team have recently demonstrated how INS can be used to probe iron... -
Oxide Ion Disorder in Rhombohedral Bismuth Neodymium Oxide Electrolytes
Materials that exhibit high oxide ion conductivity are of interest with a view to their application in solid oxide fuel cells, gas sensors and gas separation membranes. A study... -
