The aim of our experiment is to understand the link between interfacial width and the photophysics at the interface to the operation of a polymer solar cell. We propose to...

We propose a series of neutron scattering measurement to determine the water structure in amorphous H2O/C60 fullerene vapour deposits. We believe that these samples, prepared by...

This projects aims to contribute to a better understanding of the relationship between processing conditions, active layer morphology and device performance in polymer solar...

A process known as ‘molecular surgery’ enables the synthesis of the fullerene C60 enclosing a small molecule such as H2, H2O, HF and CH4. The caged molecules in these ‘molecular...

The vibrational spectrum of C60 has been investigated by many techniques since it became available in significcant quantities. Previous INS spectra were recorded with small...

C60 represents the prototypical case study for a highly geometric nanoscopic entity that exhibits exotic dynamical and thermodynamic transitions. Yet little in general is known...

Because of the potential applications of multiferroicity, the discovery of a new multiferroic (MF) material is invariably met with great enthusiasm in the condensed matter...

We propose an experiment on the low energy spectrometer LET to study temperature effects on the Luttinger liquid (LL) phase on the spin ladder geometry. The spin ladder material...

The reaction of methanol to form hydrocarbons over zeolite catalysts is an important option for conversion of natural gas or coal to liquid fuels. We have shown previously via...

Sodium and lithium intercalated C60 have been recently demonstrated to be a new class of hydrogen absorbers thanks to their capacity to dissociate H2 molecule at moderate...

In polymer-fullerene based photovoltaic systems the phase behaviour of the blends is poorly understood and remains a fundamental stumbling block to improvements in device...

Nanocarbon materials such as C60 show fascinating transport properties when in contact with a ferromagnet. Previous results indicate that this could be due to a spin polarized...

Ethanol plays an important role in the human metabolism. It is in particular known to act as a drug enhancer by increasing trans-membrane permeability, and as an anesthetic....

Test of the NIMS low temperature pressure cell on WISH.

Thermoelectricity enables the conversion of waste heat into useful power, and it is becoming increasingly important for power recovery applications at high temperature, where...

The growth in both global demand for energy and fossil-fuel related environmental issues drive research on alternative fuel sources. Solid oxide fuel cells, which can operate on...

Our neutron study using MARI/MERLIN on Ce(Ru1-xFex) 2Al10 reveals very interesting magnetic excitations and a manuscript is ready to submit to PRB. In x=0 (TN=27 K) a...

During the operation of nuclear plants, several fission products are released. Among them, radioiodine is considered one of the most important due to its tendency to form...

We request a total of 9 days on TOSCA:6 days to investigate the interactions exhibited by two Li containing metal-organic framework materials on loading with CO2. Doping of Li...

Recent work by the proposers on modelling the coherent inelastic neutron scattering spectrum for polycrystalline samples of the two phases of this material has shown that all of...
