Magnetic excitations and quasi-1D to 3D crossover in the metal-organic framew...
The metal-organic framework (MOF) guanadinium copper formate is of interest in the quest towards rational design of multiferroic MOFs. It exhibits cooperative Jahn-Teller... -
Unusual polymorphism in sodalites
We have recently observed extraordinary polymorphism on cooling various sodalites under vacuum. Materials undergo a phase transition followed by a fully reversible... -
Magnetic structure and multiferroicity in metal-formate perovskites
The family of guanadinium metal formates (M=Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu) are isostructural with the perovskites and are therefore of interest for potential applications: in particular,... -
Local structures and dynamics of new functional oxides
The melilite family are new xoide ion conductors with high mobility at low temperatures. Average structures suggest that the ability of the structure to accomodate high levels... -
Copy of: Abiogenic origin of methane: a neutron diffraction study
It has recently be demonstrated, through diamond-anvil cell experiments, that it may be possible for methane to be formed within the inner Earth through transformation reactions... -
Network compression and pressure-induced amorphisation in Zn(CN)2
Zn(CN)2 is an important material because it shows isotropic NTE over a large temperature range and to an extent more than double that of ZrW2O8. This unusual behaviour... -
Investigation of the phases formed during the conversion reaction of the C-ba...
FeF2 is a conversion reaction material that undergoes a reaction with lithium: FeF2+2Li++2e-<->2LiF+Fe, which results in a high theoretical capacity, 571 mA/g.... -

Vacancy clusters and local magnetic structure of wüstite, Fe(1-x)O
The nature and distribution of vacancy defects in wüstite, Fe(1-x)O, is an important problem because the structural and dynamical properties of the mineral - both of which are... -
Study of the reaction mehanism for carbon-based FeF3 nanocomposites as cathod...
Metal fluoride materials, through the use nanocomposites, recently appear as potential candidates as next generation high energy density positive electrodes for Li-ion... -

Direct measurement of magnetoelectric coupling - a new room temperature multi...
We have recently performed muon measurements on a member of a new class of multiferroic materials. We have shown that there is hysteretic behaviour to the internal field... -
Neutron diffraction and Neutron Resonance Transmission Analysis of a 2nd-1st ...
We propose to perform Neutron Diffraction (ND) and Neutron Resonance Transmission Analysis (NRTA) of two 2nd-1st century bimetallic sword fragments from China, in order to... -
Study of nano-electrode materials for Li-ion batteries combining small-angle ...
Nano-materials are of interest in the field of energy conversion and storage due to properties not seen for the bulk. However, due to their non-periodic nature, the atomic... -
Local structure of ortho-terphenyl glass
Ortho-terphenyl is a paradigmatic example of a molecular glass-former; yet the structure of its glass has never been fully described. We have recently demonstrated that, by... -
Reverse Monte Carlo study of Silicon anode materials for Lithium-ion batteries
The performance of current commercial Li-ion batteries with graphite anodes is limited by the relatively small amount of lithium that can reversibly intercalate between the... -
Framework flexibility and host-guest hydrogen bonding in the metal-organic do...
The recently reported double perovskite analogue imidazolium potassium iron(III) cyanide is noteworthy for two reasons. First, the order-disorder phase transitions, in which the... -
Technological study of Nuragic Bronze boat models (Sardinia, Italy)
The production of Nuragic Bronze Figurines represents a rich historical archive that provides key information not only about the iconography but also about the metal production... -
1D magnetic structure of a multiferroic metal-formate perovskite
The metal-organic framework perovskite analogue guanadinium copper(II) formate has achieved considerable recent attention for its multiferroic properties and consequent... -
Does ozone initiate damage to the main pulmonary surfactant lipid, DPPC, or c...
Exposure to ozone gas can cause inflammation of the airways and breathing difficulties. The initial reaction of ozone is thought to be predominantly with lipids present in the...
