Proximity effects associated with magnetic impurities embedded in paramagnetic Pd have been known to produced so-called giant moments. It has been demonstrated that confining Fe...

The interface of CaCO3 (calcite) and water is of paramount importance in a number of key academic and industrial areas, including scale deposition in domestic and industrial...

The aim is to measure the preferential adsorption of one component in a nematic mixture. The base is 4-pentyl 4¿- cyanobiphenyl (5CB) and it is doped with 4-pentyl 4¿-...

Due to the strong influence of interface, layer thickness and film surface quality on the efficiency of multi-layer dielectric thin film based devices, a careful analysis of...

We propose to study electrodeposited films, both patterned and unpatterned, of CoNiCu alloy layers interleaved with pure Cu spacer layers. The magnetic layers are engineered...

We have produced high quality, epitaxial and phase pure thin films of BiFe0.5Mn0.5O3 (BFMO) grown on (001) SrTiO3 substrates using pulsed laser deposition. The magnetic...

The recent experimental verification of the unique odd-frequency spin triplet superconductivity in artificial thin film ferromagnetic-superconducting structures is likely to...

The interface of CaCO3 (calcite) and oil is of paramount importance in a number of key academic and industrial areas, not least oil recovery. Neutron reflection has proved to be...

A large magnetoresistance (TMR) is expected when half metallic ferromagnets are used in magnetic tunneling junctions with polycrystalline AlOx barrier. We have recently observed...

We propose to study off-specular polarised neutron reflectivity from an array of CoFeB nanostructures. Many groups use Permalloy to form these types of nanostructures, however,...
