Muon spin relaxation studies of KTCNQ and related compounds
Potassium tetracyanoquinodimenthane (KTCNQ) undergoes a spin-Peierls (SP) transition at 396K where a transformation from uniform to dimerised TCNQ- molecules in 1D columns... -
Probing stray field distributions in silver arising from patterned ferromagne...
We propose to investigate muon spin depolarization in silver resulting from stray magnetic fields from a nickel film that has been photo-lithographically patterned into a series... -
Spin Frustration in Iridate Systems, and the Role of the Spin-Orbit Coupling
We propose to investigate the roles of the spin-orbit interaction and geometrical frustration in stabilising a quantum spin liquid phase (QSL) in some iridate systems. µSR is a... -
Probing the interplay between charge density wave and superconductivity in st...
We propose to study PdxIrTe2, which evolves from a charge-orbital density wave state to a superconducting state with doping. It has a similar structural motif, doping-dependent... -
Non-equilibrium effects in the skyrmion material Co8Zn8Mn4
Skyrmions are topologically protected, vortex-like nano-sized objects which have been shown to exist in the spin textures of a range of magnetic materials. As we have recently... -
Superconductivity in the layered semimetal Bi3O2S3
Bi3O2S3 is a newly discovered superconductor with a critical temperature ~4.5 K and an upper critical field of 4.8 T. It is highly unusual among the new layered structures in... -
Is there a hidden Magnetic Order in KxRb2-xV8O16?
KxRb2-xV8O16 are series of hollandite compounds exhibiting a quasi 1D structure. In such systems, the formation of the magnetic ground state originates from a dominant... -
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... -
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... -
Interaction of muonium centres and excess carriers in highly injected silicon
We have developed a method to measure carrier recombination lifetime in crystalline silicon with the photo-muSR technique. The key of the method is to measure the dependence of... -
Electron Spin Relaxation Measurements of P3HS
Using muon spin relaxation and ALC resonance spectroscopy the electron spin relaxation and mobility of the polymer P3HS will be measured as a function of temperature. The... -

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... -
MuSR studies of the electronic properties of hyperexpanded fullerides close t...
The fcc polymorph of the hyperexpanded fulleride Cs3C60 can be driven to a bulk suprconducting state without symmetry change by the application of pressure. Its Tc passes... -

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... -
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... -
Muon spin relaxation study on cobalt arsenides ACo2As2 (A = Ca, Sr and Ba)
Recent investigations of physical properties of ACo2As2 (A = Ca, Sr, Ba) indicate that Co-based arsenides could be a potential parent compound like the parent AFe2As2. While... -
A µSR study of two different phases of the non-centrosymmetric superconductor...
The intermetallic compound, Re3W is a non-centrosymmetric system with large atomic number (Z) for both constituents (75 for Re and 74 for W) and hence is a good candidate for... -
