Structural determination of non-stoichiomentric phases Li2+yND for 0<y<1
In a series of in situ neutron diffraction measurements from deuterium up-take in Li3N, the present authors have identified a novel non-stoichiometric 'quasi-imide' of... -
QENS studies of hydride ion diffusion in alkaline earth hydrides
We propose to study hydride ion diffusion in AEH2 (AE = Ca and Ba) using the QENS technique. We have recently demonstrated that the charge carrier in these materials are hydride... -
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... -
Copy of: Local magnetic order and the paramagnetic-parmagnetic transition in MnO
The antiferromagnetic-paramagnetic transition in MnO at 118 K occurs at a much lower temperature than anticipated from its Curie-Weiss constant theta~550 K. Consequently, strong... -
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... -

Understanding the structure and stability of mineral phases which contain harmful elements, such as U and As, is vital to determine the likelihood of toxic element release into... -
Neutron Compton scattering investigation of hydrogen defects in Al2O3/Al hydr...
The need for structural materials that can resist hydrogen assisted degradation becomes critical for the continuation of the development of the hydrogen economy. Understanding... -
Order-Disorder Transitions in Layered Tellurides
We have prepared a new series of layered tellurides Cr2-xInxGe2Te6, containing 2D ordered arrays of (Cr,In) cations and (Ge-Ge) pairs. Recent neutron measurements reveal indium... -
Oxygen mobility in the defect perovskite Sr3SbO5.5
We propose to use Polaris to record powder neutron diffraction data for the oxygen deficient double perovskite Sr3SbO5.5 as a function of temperature to establish the... -

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... -
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... -
