In order to detect oxygen diffusion in electrolyte materials in Solid Oxide Fuel Cells, we here want to propose a muSR experiment on three oxide electrolytes exhibitng good...

We propose longitudinal muon spin depolarization measurements for two additional samples of Si(1-x)Ge(x) alloys in order to complete our study of the dependence of Mu(-/0)...

This proposal describes an in situ muSR experiment on a hydrogen storage material, MgH2. This is because MgH2 attracts a special attention due to the fact that the hydrogen...

Clays are porous materials and planned to be used as barrier material in radioactive waste repositories. In this context understanding of water and solute diffusion on different...

We propose further zero-field muon spin depolarization measurements at temperatures above 300K in order to determine barriers for thermal diffusion of positively charged muonium...

Every new triangular lattice (TL) antiferromagnet attracts considerable attention since they usually display rich physics due to the inherent frustration and degenerate ground...

We plan to measure the hyperfine constants for both the muon and the equivalent hydrogen atom in a small muonated radical using time-differential ALC. We will follow this as a...

We propose an investigation of the magnitude and fluctuations of internal magnetic fields in Mn-doped ZnGeP2. This chalcopyrite structured semiconductor has a ferromagnetic (FM)...

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...

This proposal describes a muSR experiment on a garnet-type Li ionic conductor, Li6.75La3Zr1.75Nb0.25O12 under electric field (E) in order to study a diffusive behavior under a...

This proposal describes a muSR experiment on Li-Mn-oxides to see Li diffusion, because muSR is a powerful technique to detect it in the compounds containing magnetic ions....

We propose a series of measurements on anatase and brookite Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) to investigate the motional dynamics of positively charged Mu centres and their transition...

Nearly all polymers form glasses and the glass transition at temperature Tg dominates many physical properties of polymers that are relevant for their applications. The most...

A grand challenge facing society today is the need to develop green energy technologies. For instance, as we increase our use of renewable energy sources to cut our consumption...

Green dioptase is a naturally occurring mineral, that has a deep green colour, similar to that of an emerald, and with a chemical formula of CuSiO3.H2O. The Cu lies in quasi-1D...

We want to address the problem of a possible coexistence of superconductivity and magnetism in the FeSr2YCu2Oy cuprate by means of a combined ZF/TF-muSR study. This compound...

This is a part of our Li-diffusion study in battery materials with muSR. In order for balancing safety and energy density, a solid solution system between LiFePO4 and LiMnPO4...

Ions are often diffusing in solids. Among many ions, H+, Li+, Na+, O2-, and F- are known to become mobile at high temperatures in solids and they are used for fuel cells and...

Magnetic skyrmions are vortex-like objects characterised by an integer topological winding number. They have been observed in the spin structures of several magnetic materials...

Skyrmions are topologically protected, vortex-like nano-sized objects which have been shown to exist in the spin textures of a range of magnetic materials. As we have recently...
