Packing of DNA in glioma nuclei
To answer the question how DNA is packed inside the interphase nucleus at the micron scale, we propose SESANS experiment using contrast variation technique from human glioma... -
Interfacial Structures of Co-sensitized Dye-sensitized Solar Cell Working Ele...
Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) are promising candidates for building integrated photovoltaics. The use of multiple dyes simultaneously, co-sensitization, promises improved... -
SESANS investigation of structural colour in polar bear hair
Structural colour arises not from dyes or pigments, but from light scattering off of the inner geometry of the material itself. This offers greater stability than standard... -

Comparison Phase-object approximation and dynamical scattering theory
X-ray, electron and neutron scattering techniques have been used for the structural characterization of surfaces and embedded morphologies. Several theories have been developed... -
Tuning the Magnetic Properties of γ-Fe2O3 Fe3O4 Thin Films for Atom Tr...
In this work we will investigate how the magnetic properties of nanometer thick iron-oxide films can be manipulated by heating them in air. Our preliminary results indicate that... -
SESANS of beetle scales and butterfly wings
Neutron scattering and in particular SESANS is able to give us excellent ensemble averaging of the optical properties of materials which exhibit structural colour. We plan to... -
SESANS study of phase segregation in microemulsion polymerisations
Spin echo small-angle neutron scattering (SESANS) beamtime is requested to study the growth of polymer nanolatices in novel microemulsion systems. The natural incompatibility of... -
Quasi-elastic neutron scattering using Neutron Spin echo
We propose a measurement of the effectiveness of using the RF flippers on Offspec in a quasi-elastic mode (theta=90°) with the RF at 0.5MHz. This is important to our future... -
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 SESANS to complete our understanding of the structural basis for the rh...
Molten chocolate is a dense suspension of solids (mainly sugar) in oil, to which surfactants have been added to improve the flow properties, either during manufacture or in the... -
Microstructure of Homoeopathic Organic Solar Cells
Much progress has been made researching organic solar cells (OSC) in the last two decades, but the field still holds surprises. Until recently, the general assumption was that... -
Exploratory SERGIS/SESANS study of Si nanowires
Nanowires are increasingly being used in life science as nanometer probes and interfacing with cells. In our work we focus on the interaction between nanowires and a... -
Aggregation effects on long length scales in solutions for organic photovolta...
Solar cell materials are routinely used in many applications and many studies are ongoing which have three principle objectives. To increase the efficiency, reduce the cost of... -
Conjugated polymer-small molecule interfaces for photovoltaic applications
Organic materials offer a range of low-cost options for large area fabrication of solar (photovoltaic) cells. Unfortunately, organic photovoltaics suffer from low efficiencies.... -
Surface Smectic Layers in difluoroterphenyls
The proposal is to use previous established neutron reflection methods to observe the smectic layers that form at the surface of a nematic liquid crystal. In this proposal we... -
Spin-echo encoded neutron refraction of air bubbles in a fibrous protein gel
Calcium caseinate is a promising candidate to be developed into a meat analogue. When the dough like protein gel is subjected to mild shear and heat, it turned into a pronounced... -
Production mechanism of polymersomes
In the field of cancer research, radionuclide therapy is proven to be one of the only viable alternatives to chemotherapy in the case of metastasized cancer. In this context,... -
Microstructure of self-assembled polymer nanoparticles in non-polar solvents
Polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA) is a versatile method that enables the synthesis of diblock copolymer nanoparticles in many solvents. In particular,... -
Iron Oxide Nanoparticle Interactions with Lipid Bilayers in a Magnetic Field
Iron oxide nanoparticles are one of the first nanomaterials to be approved for use in the body. However, research into particle binding and incorporation to, as well as...
