Magnetostriction in (Bi,La) orthoferrites
We have recently observed unusual magnetostrictive behaviour in Bi0.5La0.5FeO3 (BLFO), a phenomenon which is not present in either solid solution end member. This proposal seeks... -
Structural Studies of PbZr1-xTixO3: completing the puzzle in the tetragonal a...
We request 6 days of HRPD time in order to study the structures on the tetragonal side of the lead zirconate-titanate (PZT) phase diagram, a region that has so far been rather... -
Neutron Diffraction Study of a Spin-1/2 Pyrochlore Lu2Mo2O5N2
Ammonolysis of R2Mo2O7 pyrochlores gives R2Mo2O5N2 containing S = ½ Mo5+. They are excellent candidate materials for investigation of quantum spin liquid phenomena and we have... -
Impact of Jahn-Teller Distortions in Sr0.5Pr0.5MnO3
We propose to use the HRPD to establish the sequence of structures, and the nature of the transitions between these, in two complex manganites Sr0.5Pr0.5MnO3 and... -
Structures and magnetism of layered cobalt oxide selenide tellurides
This proposal aims to exploit the high resolution of HRPD and OSIRIS to probe the structures of the solid solution Ba2CoO2Cu2(Te1-xSex)2. The compound Ba2CoO2Cu2Te2 shows... -

Anion order in perovskite oxynitrides
Transition metal oxynitrides with perovskite type structures are an emerging class of materials with optical, photocatalytic, dielectric and magnetoresistive properties that may... -
Fluorophosphate Derivatives of Gypsum and Lithium in Biogenic Manganese Oxides
This proposal seeks neutron diffraction beamtime to study two important systems. We have demonstrated that monofluorophosphate (PO3F) can be substituted into gypsum (CaSO4.2H2O)... -
Phase Separation and Jahn Teller Distortion in Molybdate Perovskites
Two days of beamtime on HRPD will be used to examine a family of double perovskites Sr2YbMO6 that are isostructural at room temperature. When M = Mo5+ the monoclinic perovskite... -
Phase diagram of the lead-free ferroelectric Na1-xKxNbO3 at room temperature
The system NaNbO3 ¿ KNbO3 is one of the most widely studied as a ¿green¿ replacement for the piezoelectric material PZT (PbZr1-xTixO3). Despite its enormously growing... -
Magneto-elasticity, metamagnetism and the magnetic cooling potential of Fe2P-...
We wish to trace the changes in lattice parameters and atomic coordinates around the first and second order Curie transitions of Fe2P and boron (11B)-doped Fe2P0.95,B0.05... -

Unravelling the mechanisms of negative thermal in γ-Mg(11BD4)2
We request 2 days on HRPD to perform a detailed study of the low temperature behaviour of γ-Mg(11BD4)2 in order to measure the change lattice parameter as a function of... -
Phase Transitions and Orbital Ordering in SrRu1-xCuxO3.
This proposal seeks to establish the importance of orbital ordering on the stability of the tetragonal phase in Cu doped SrRiuO3. Orbital ordering is believed to be a... -
Strain effect on the magnetic ground state of the ferroelectric Ca3CoMnO6 system
The search for new ferroelectric materials, where the ferroelectricity results from magnetic frustration, has been a topic of great interest to the condensed matter physics... -
Novel proton environments in geologically important hydrous silicates
Hydrous chain silicates (amphiboles) are central to understanding many geological processes in the Earth¿s Crust, Upper Mantle and Transition Zone, where they influence melting,... -
Understanding the formation of diamonds: Calibrating the coesite solid-inclus...
Diamonds provide our only direct samples of the very deep Earth and understanding their origin is consequently of great interest to Earth Scientists. The origin of diamonds can... -
Define the crystal structures of lead-free ferroelectric, candidate multiferr...
We have a range of new structures in the lead-free ferroelectric, candidate multiferroic and SOFC cathode areas. The HRPD data will be used to define these new crystal...
