Hydrogen kinetics in nano-layered metal hydrides for hydrogen sensing applica...
Accurate, safe and cheap hydrogen detectors functioning under a wide range of conditions are a vital ingredient for using hydrogen as an energy carrier. A novel, safe and cheap... -
Neutron Diffraction Studies of Polycrystalline CeCr1-xTixGe3 (x = 0, 0.5, 1.0)
Observation of both ferromagnetic ordering and Kondo/heavy fermion behavior in a system is not so common. Recently we have discovered the Kondo effect/heavy fermion behavior in... -
Investigation of magnetic phase coexistence and determination of magnetic pha...
The solid solution Mn(1-x)Fe(x)WO4 exhibits complex antiferromagnetic order with coexistence of commensurate and incommensurate magnetic structures. Furthermore, the MnWO4 end... -
Dynamic Long Range Antiferromagnetic Order in Frustrated Perovskites, Ba2-xSr...
We use chemistry to arrange unusual crystal structures that set up conflicting interactions between magnetic ions in the material. In these compounds i is not possible for a... -
Low temperature magnetic properties of the mineral gaudefroyite
The mineral gaudefroyite contains parallel chains of linked MnO6 octahedra. The Mn magnetic moments order with parallel spins within a given chain at low temperature, but the... -
Exploration of the pressure-induced amorphization and glassy states of THF-cl...
Clathrate hydrates (CHs) are ice structures in which water molecules (host) form cages through hydrogen bonds. The cages can accommodate various types of molecules (guests),... -
Pressure-Tuning Interactions in Spin-Crossover Metal-Organic Frameworks
The magnetism of spin-crossover (SCO) materials containing Fe(II) can be switched by changing conditions. The low-spin state existing at low temperature or high pressure can be... -
Kinetics of Protein Adsorption on well-characterised polymer brushes
We wish to develop a rational understanding of the mechanisms underlying the way water soluble polymer brushes - in particular those of polyethylene oxide/polyethylene glycol -... -
Inelastic neutron scattering in the Ce3Co4Sn13 heavy Fermion compound
We propose to use the OSIRIS spectrometer to measure the inelastic magnetic scattering on the newly discovered heavy Fermion compound Ce3Co4Sn13. This compound has one of the... -
Search for neutron spin-resonance in the exotic heavy fermion superconductor ...
Neutron spin resonance mode is a common feature in different classes of magnetic superconductors; nonetheless, the microscopic origin of the mode is still unclear. In general,... -
