Measurement of gravitation-induced quantum interference
We propose to perform accurate measurements of the quantum gravitational effect on OffSpec. This proposal is a continuation of the proposal from 2011 (RB 1120061) and the lost... -
Measurement of gravitation-induced quantum interference
We propose to perform accurate measurements of the quantum gravitational effect for OffSpec. We would like to investigate if a similar discrepancy between quantum system gravity... -
Investigation of the microstructure of dipeptide hydrogels
The properties of gels formed from the self-assembly of small molecules depend on the properties of the fibres into which the molecules have assembled as well as the number and... -
Probing binary mixtures of hard spheres
As part of a larger programme we aim to test densely-packed binary mixtures of monodisperse hard sphere powders to determine local structure, to correlate with ratio of... -
Phase separation in confined polymer blends studied by SERGIS
We intend to study the phase separation morphology of confined polymer blends. Interface forces will impose morphologies different from those in the bulk. In our experiments the... -
The effect of particles on the structure of mucin ¿ understanding the challen...
Progress in the development of nano-sized hybrid therapeutics and nano-sized drug delivery systems - "nanomedicines" - over the last decade has been remarkable. One key... -
Critical Opalescence in Binary Liquid Mixtures
In this proposal, we would like to investigate how a binary organic mixture approaches its critical point over unprecedented length and time scales, from the micron range down... -
Investigation into the Effect of Heating Rates on Recrystallisation Mechanism...
Electrical steels (ES) used in motors and transformers. The major challenge is to optimise themagnetic property of ES to reduce energy waste during service. The crystallographic... -
Phase separation in confined block-copolymers on a structured substrate studi...
Co-polymers confined in small droplets may have a structure different from that in the bulk. These droplets are produced by annealing a spin-coated polymer film with a thickness... -
Using SERGIS, SESANS and NR to probe nanoscale cavities created within templa...
Nanoporous membranes fabricated by polymerization around soluble templates have found many applications in (bio)sensors, charge storage devices, filtration and catalysis.... -
Adsorption of perfluoroalkyl substances to solid soil interface to elucidate ...
Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are stable compounds and commercially desirable. They are widely used, for example, as surfactants in textile and paper products and in aqueous...
