Heterolytic Cleavage of H2 using Non-Metal Frustrated Lewis Pairs
The synthesis of Frustrated Lewis Pairs (FLP¿s) have recently experienced a huge surge in popularity as they have been found to be a novel approach for the activation of small... -
On the ninety degree perpendicular domain wall in FePt/FeRh thin films.
Magnetic structures with an out of plane magnetic moment can be found in the latest generation hard disk drive. Interactions between a material with controllable out of plane... -
Understanding the role of strain and applied field in the metamagnetic transi...
FeRh exhibits a fascinating structural and magnetic transition from room temperature antiferromagnetism to ferromagnetism at higher temperatures. This complex transition is... -
An externally controllable, purely magnetic interface in spatially doped FeRh
We intend the measure the neutron reflectivity of a purely magnetic interface generated at a ferromagnetic/antiferromagnet phase boundary within an FeRh epilayer, a material... -
Structural Investigation of high active Lewis acid catalysts for selective hy...
The selective oxidation of saturated C-H bonds is a crucial step in many industrial processes. Recent we have discovered an alternative green one-step route for the selective... -
Hydrogen activation by non-metal catalysts. IINS studies of Frustrated Lewis ...
Hydrogenation has played a crucial role in energy related applications ranging from the production of ammonia from N2 to the conversion of coal to liquid fuels. Until recently,... -
Interfacial adsorption of single alkyl chain PC surfactants (CnPmC)
We propose to investigate the interfacial adsorption of a series of water-soluble single chain PC surfactants using neutron reflection, focusing on assessing the effects of...
