Study on the effect of polymer dynamics to the transport properties and macro...
We use inorganic nanoparticles grafted with polymers as membranes for gas separation. These membranes show remarkable enhancement in permeability as compared to the bulk... -
Proton dynamics in novel organic ferroelectric materials
The vast majority of known ferroelectrics are inorganic compounds such as barium titanate and potassium dihydrogen phosphate. Contrary to naïve expectation, ferroelectricity in... -
Tracking membrane dynamics during the topological phase transitions in amphip...
The proposed experiment addresses the dynamics of surfactants in amphiphile/water systems during the topological transition, with a focus on the membrane with non-lamellae... -
QENS OF HUMAN HAIR: EVALUATION OF WATER DYNAMICS IN HAIR SAMPLES SUBJECTED TO...
Human hair has been studied by x-ray diffraction and electron microscopy for many years, however a complete picture of its structure is still missing. Hair is a weakly... -

Anomalous spin diffusion in 2D percolating magnet
This proposal is to observe single-spin diffusive motion on a two-dimensional (2D) percolating network having a fractal geometry. The random walker¿s travel times on a... -
Molecular dynamics and melting in CH3NH3PbCl3:
The organic-inorganic perovskites (CH3NH3Pb(Br,Cl,I)3) have been identified as efficient photovoltaic materials. Theoretical calculations have suggested that the low energy... -
Study of the dynamics of lyophilized protein/bioprotectant systems
Developing recombinant protein pharmaceuticals has proved to be very challenging because of both the complexity of protein production and purification, and the limited physical... -
Aza-crown-stabilized Alkali-Alkalide Systems: Solvent and metal effects on di...
We request 4 days on IRIS to investigate the diffusional and rotational dynamics of the alkalide forming, fully methylated aza-crown hexamethyl-hexacyclen (HMHC) in... -
Inelastic Neutron Scattering study on Co-doped CeCu2Ge2
The AFM ground state of CeCu2Ge2 can be continuously suppressed by Co doping and NFL type behavior is seen around the critical concentration xc = 0.6. The electrical resistivity... -
Investigating the diffusion of C6 cyclic and aromatic hydrocarbons in Pt/MCM-41
Diffusion of a range of cyclic hydrocarbons relevant to the nylon production process will be measured in the potential catalyst Pt/MCM-41 in the context of the benzene... -
Correlation between local dynamics and shape of SDS micelles
This is in continuation with our earlier proposal (RB910248) for which experiment was carried out during August 2009. Fast segmental dynamics of surfactants in rod-like... -
Examining Hydration Dynamics and the Glass Transition Behaviour of Keratin Fi...
Proteinwater interactions establish and shape the thermodynamic landscape that governs the folding, structure, stability, mechanics and activity of proteins, and thus... -
Dynamics of Protein-Confined Water in Polymer Vesicles: A Feasibility Study
When we confine water in extremely small spaces it starts to move extremely slowly. This behaviour is critical to helping biological molecules like proteins function normally.... -
Probing Ligand Flexibility using Quasielastic Neutron Scattering
Transition metal catalysts are ubiquitous in the academic and industrial study and application of synthetic chemistry. The properties of these catalysts can be augmented by... -
Modifications to the phonon spectrum of nanocomposite thermoelectrics
Here we propose to use the superior energy resolution of OSIRIS to measure the phonon desnity of states (PDOS) of both nanocomposite and bulk thermoelectric alloys of Si1-xGex.... -
Li-ion diffusion in the solid electrolyte LLT
The high voltage and energy density has made lithium-ion batteries ubiquitous in portable electronics, such as iPods, laptops and mobile phones. At present, they are typically... -
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... -
QENS Analysis of Proton Diffusion in Functional Metal-Organic Frameworks
The development of new functional metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as complex proton conductor is receiving increasing attention worldwide. We aim to develop new solid proton... -
