Packing structural conformation of (H/D) nanogels at the air/water interface
The interfacial behaviour of thermoresponsive N-propylacrylamide (NPAM) based nanogels differs from solid nanoparticles because of the soft structural character. These nanogels... -
Superstructures in insulating and metallic lanthanum-doped sodium cobaltate
The thermoelectric properties of NaxCoO2 can be substantially improved by replacing Na ions by cations of higher valence. Our neutron diffraction studies on SXD for doping with... -
SANS Study of the interaction of reconstituted model wheat waxes with non-ion...
The understanding of the plant wax-surfactant interaction process is crucial to the development of more effective pesticide and fungicide formulations, essential for improving... -
Depth profiles in bulk heterojunction films containing low-molecular weight o...
Neutron reflectivity will be used to investigate the composition in the direction perpendicular to the substrate for films of blends of electron-donor... -
Effect of End Group on RAFT-Polymers for Lipid Nanodisc Stabilisation
Polymer stabilized lipid nanodiscs offer enormous potential as tools for enabling membrane protein structural studies & biophysics. Previously we studied discs formed using... -
NR study of binding of short antimicrobial alpha-helix peptides with model li...
In this work we explore how our rationally designed peptide amphiphiles bind onto lipid monolayers using neutron reflection combined with deuterium labelling to the lipids,... -
A study of hole injection efficiency for a model conjugated bilayer system
Polymer-based electronics have attracted huge interest due to their wide applicability to light emitting diodes, field effect transistors and photovoltaics. The aim of our... -
Investigation of magnetic defects in exfoliated graphite
Graphene has recently received widespread attention, after the discovery of its stability as a 2Dcrystal at ambient conditions and thanks to a wealth of possible applications.... -
Magnetic study of the new skyrmion-carrying material CoZnMn
Nanoscale magnetic skyrmions are swirl-like magnetisation entities that satisfy topological quantisation conditions. They can therefore not be easily unwound into another... -
Understanding the structural change of caseinate under mild heat and shear
Producing meat analogue instead of real meat is an effective way to reduce carbon emission and improve animal welfare. Calcium caseinate is a prominent candidate for making a... -

Probing membrane localisation of molecular rotors (SANS)
A number of important biological processes, such as intracellular transport and signal transduction depend on the viscosity and the distribution of microdomains in cells. We... -
Neutron scattering from topological magnetic structures in Fe1-xCoxSi
FeSi is a member of the transition metal (TM) monosilicides. The crystal structure is isostructural from MnSi through to CoSi with magnetic properties that alter dramatically... -
Metallomicroemulsions - a new class of supramolecularly organised metal ions
Incorporation of d- or f-block metals into ligand systems that renders a metal complex surface active or drives its partitioning into surfactant phases enables the localisation... -
Magnetic Coupling and Chiral Structures in Rare Earth Metal Molecular Systems
We have observed that the addition of C60 molecules on the surface of rare earth (RE) metal thin films alters magnetic transitions into collinear and non-collinear states. The... -
Interaction of polypeptides with surfactants: aqueous solution aggregation
This proposal constitutes part of our ongoing study towards understanding how collagen based polypeptides interact with ionic surfactants using SANS. Both SDS and C12TAB will be... -
Multiscale time-resolving study of crystallisation in polyethyleneoxide
We will exploit the powerful and unique capability of NIMROD to follow in a time-resolving manner the crystallisation of polyethyleneoxide (PEO). There are three key length... -
Local and long-range solute and solvent ordering in concentrated nanotube gel...
Manipulating nanoparticles in liquids is crucial for their scalable implementation in future technologies. For example, such liquids can be used like paint to create uniform... -
Structure and thermodynamics of polyethylene glycol chusions
A long term goal for biophysical studies has been to fabricate bio-membranes on solid supports. A highly hydrated ¿cushion¿ between the membrane and the underlying support can... -
Effect of alloying on the misfit of Ni-Ni3Al-Ni3V alloys
The exceptional high temperature mechanical properties of Ni-base superalloys has resulted in their widespread use in high temperature applications. These alloys conventionally...
