A pair distribution function study to determine the local structure of the ti...
BaTiO3 is the prototypical ferroelectic perovskite and has been well studied for over 60 years. The standard structural picture is that it is cubic and paraelectric at high... -
In search of origin of metal-insulator transition in honeycomb structure Li2RuO3
Recently we have carried out inelastic neutron scattering measurements on Li2RuO3 to understand the nature of the phase transition at 550K. We have seen a clear inelastic... -
Does The Crystal Structure of Leucite Evolve with Temperature to the Proposed...
The concept of an aristotype, or equivalently, the basic structure, that represents the highest symmetry crystal structure that can be attained, either experimentally, or... -
Hydrothermal synthesis and calcination of hydrotalcites
Hydrotalcites are anionic clays which have a variety of applications, including use as environmentally friendly catalysts and catalyst precursors. In this experiment we propose... -
Structural changes of PdRu alloy nanoparticles caused by catalytic reactions
We are proposing 4 days of beamtime on GEM/Polaris to conduct the neutron powder diffraction experiments on PdRu alloy nanoparticles supported on CZ (CeO2-ZrO2) before and after... -
Observation of hydrogen diffusion in hydrogen storage materials with muSR
This is a continuation proposal describing an "in situ" muSR experiment on hydrogen storage materials. For the two previous beam-time allocated for RB1510262 and RB1520259, we... -
Structure-Property Relationships in Oxide Ion Conductors: Bi6WO12
High temperature Bi2O3 has the highest oxide ion conductivity known for any material. It has an oxygen-deficient fluorite-based structure, with 25% of oxygen atoms missing from... -

Total scattering from multiferroic bismuth ferrite
Bismuth Ferrite (BiFeO3) is the archetypal multiferroic material and as such has been copiously studied using a wide variety of techniques. Despite this, new structural and... -
PNR determination of magnetic interface states and exchange coupling in hybri...
The atomic interfaces between ferromagnetically ordered thin films with perpendicular anisotropy and either films with magnetically ordered in-plane anisotropy or a non-magnetic... -
Cation Ordering in Quaternary Sulphides and Selenides
We wish to investigate quaternary chalcogenides, A2ZnBQ4 (where A = Cu, Ag; B = Ge, Sn; Q = S, Se). Calculations indicate stannite (S) or kesterite (K) superstructures of both... -
Divacancy superstructures and enhanced thermopower in NaxCayCoO2
Replacing Na ions in NaxCoO2 with divalent Ca ions results in the formation of ordered arrays of divacancy clusters, rather than the trivacancy clusters found for the pure... -
Re-examination of PZT structures around a tricritical point
The mixture of lead titanate (PbTiO3) and lead zirconate (PbZrO3), known as PbZr1-xTixO3 (PZT), is commonly used in a wide range of applications (sensors, actuators, etc)... -
The topotactic reduction and anion exchange of complex oxy-halides
The reaction of LiH with the oxy-chloride Sr3Fe2O5Cl2 initially leads to the topotactic deintercalation of oxide ions and the formation of Sr3Fe2O4Cl2 containing sheets of... -
Effects of Local Displacements on Phase Transitions in Sr- and Ca-substituted...
Ferroelectric BaTiO3 (BT) constitutes a base system for many practical applications ranging from classical capacitors to tunable dielectrics. A dielectric response in BT is... -
