In-situ Neutron Diffraction Studies of Lithium Battery Materials
This proposal seeks to test a new battery designed to allow in situ neutron diffraction measurements of lithium ion battery electrodes under charge and discharge. We have... -
Inelastic neutron scattering investigations of the high temperature phase tra...
Recently it has been reported that YbAl3C3 undergoes an antiferromagnetic quadrupolar ordering transition at 80 K, Further study by Ochiai et al. revealed that the transition at... -
Quantum critical dynamics in the purely dipolar antiferromagnet LiErF4
LiErF4 is an example of an XY dipolar coupled antiferromagnet with planar anisotropy. As such it exhibits a quantum phase transition (QPT) in a small field of 4kOe, which is of... -
Unravelling the Interplay between Octahedral Distortions and High-Tc Supercon...
We propose elastic neutron powder diffraction experiments on perovkite bismuthates (Ca,K)BiO3. Known as one of the earliest high-Tc oxide superconductors, bismuthates have... -
Spin dynamics in a honeycomb antiferromagnet with strong spin-orbit coupling
This proposal is part of our research programme to explore novel ground states stabilized by frustrated interactions in quantum magnets. Here we plan to measure the spin... -
Neutron Total Scattering Investigation of LaCoxMn1-xO3 Perovskites
The perovskite structure with general formula ABX3 describes many hundreds (if not thousands) of materials. Many have interesting and technologically important properties. The...
