Ordered structures in the new Topological Insulators
We propose to investigate the structure of the new ¿ordered¿ phases within the Bi2Se3-Bi2Te3 phase diagram of the newly discovered Topological Insulators. The bulk properties of... -
Moment stability and spin fluctuations in ferromagnetic Au4V
Au4V is an extremely unusual alloy. Neither Au nor V is generally found to carry a magnetic moment in the metallic state, yet the body-centred tetragonal (bct), structurally... -
Low Temperature Magnetic, Thermoelastic and Structural Behaviour of Antiferro...
We propose to study the low temperature structural and magnetic changes in three clinopyroxene phases FeGeO3, CaNiSi2O6 and CaCoSi2O6. All three phases order... -

Structural changes in LiMO2 anode materials
It was thought that oxides could not intercalate Li below 1.5V vs Li+/Li. We recently studied layered LiVO2, which intercalates Li at around 0.25V to form Li2VO2, making it an... -
Neutron Diffraction Studies of Iron Based Electrode Materials
The growing implementation of renewable resources has placed increased demand for cheap, safe and efficient means of storing the energy generated. Lithium and sodium ion... -
Ion dynamics in Potassium Ordered & Disordered KxCoO2
We have recently presented a novel method to study ion-dynamics in solids using muSR via the hopping rate (nu). We have previously and successfully applied this method to study... -
Magnetic Order in Orbitally Ordered PbRuO3 (RB920270)
The electronic properties of the second and third row transition metal oxides are traditionally thought to be dominated by the width of the 4d or 5d valence band, which reduces...
