Skyrmions in applied electric fields
One of the most studied skyrmion-hosting materials is the magnetoelectric insulator Cu2OSeO3 which raises the exciting prospect of manipulating the skyrmion-phase through the... -
Temperature and environment dependence of the isotope effect in muonated radi...
We plan to measure the hyperfine constants for both the muon and the equivalent hydrogen atom in a small muonated radical using time-differential ALC. We will follow this as a... -
Characterizing Mu in 6H-SiC with RF-MuSR
We propose a set of RF measurements on Silicon Carbide (polytype 6H) to identify and characterize the muonium species present below room temperature. One of the main goals of... -
Muon study of a Tb polyoxometallate single ion magnet with 5-fold symmetry
The magnetic properties of a Terbium single ion magnetic system will be studied using implanted muons. The system is based on a polyoxometallate ion that provides good isolation... -
Motional Dynamics of Positively Charged Muonium in Anatase, Brookite and Ruti...
We propose a series of measurements on anatase and brookite Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) to investigate the motional dynamics of positively charged Mu centres and their transition... -
Probing the glass transition in polymers using LF muSR
Nearly all polymers form glasses and the glass transition at temperature Tg dominates many physical properties of polymers that are relevant for their applications. The most... -
How complex is complex: an ALC study of a 10-mer helical peptide chain
There have been ALC studies on the interaction of muons with native proteins, but little systematic work that contributes understanding of how spectroscopic information alters... -
Artificial [FeFe]-Hydrogenases and Muon Spectroscopy
Preliminary measurements of [FeFe]-hydrogenase model complexes were made in a previous experiment using EMU (RB 1010177). The results were interpreted in combination with DFT... -
Frustration-stabilized skyrmions in centrosymmetric compounds
Skyrmions are chiral magnetic spin textures that exist in a variety of different magnetic materials. Skyrmions are usually stabilized in noncentrosymmetric chiral materials by... -
Models of the [FeFe]-hydrogenase active site: high symmetry in a biologically...
The [FeFe]-hydrogenase enzymes are some of the best catalysts know for generating hydrogen. We have an ongoing programme to understand how their chemistry works, and to... -

Muonium in BeO
BeO is a promising material in order to improve HfO2-based MOSFET devices, and a candidate substitute of HfO2 as high-k gate material. The electrical properties of BeO can be... -
RF MuSR in the gas phase: the Search for a Radical State
The main spectroscopic technique for studying radicals in solids and liquids, ESR, cannot usually be used to study radicals of more than 3-5 atoms in the gas phase due to strong... -

QLCR Spectroscopy of Solid Nitrogen
Quadrupolar level crossing resonance (QLCR) occurs in the muSR of solids with diamagnetic muon states in close proximity to quadrupolar nuclei. This effect provides uniquely... -
Varying oxygen content in the quantum spin ice Tb2Ti2O7
Tb2Ti2O7 is one of two compounds identified as potential quantum spin ices. As with other oxide pyrochlores the properties depend sensitively on the oxygen stoichiometry. Most...
