Characterisation of Zeolite Precursor Gels Over Wide Q Range
Our objective is to determine new structural information about the structure of amorphous silicate gels formed early in the synthesis of crystalline, microporous zeolites. This... -
Structures of New Ternary Iridates Prepared using Hydrothermal Chemistry
We propose to measure powder neutron diffraction data from some new iridium oxides prepared using mild hydrothermal reaction conditions. Although we have some structural models... -
Determination of the H-H bond lenght of H2/CuBTC MOF (SANDALS)
The rotational line of hydrogen is very clearly measured with TOSCA. For the past few years I have noticed that the changes in the position of the rotational line do not follow... -
Probing the Earliest Stages of Zeolite Crystallisation
Our aim is to provide new data concerning the evolution of amorphous gel phases into crystalline inorganic materials to allow information about crystallisation mechanism of... -
The First Structural Characterisation of some Gallium Oxide Polymorphs
We propose to make the first detailed structural study of some polymorphs of gallium oxide that remain poorly characterised and yet have applications in catalysis and are used... -
Long-Range and Local Structures of New Pyrochlores and Fluorites
We propose to study by total neutron scattering the structures of some complex oxide materials prepared by new hydrothermal routes in order to construct structural models... -
Structural Studies of Complex Mixed-Metal Pyrochlore and Spinel Oxides

The Location of Guests in Metal-Organic Frameworks Using IINS
Metal-organic framework materials are a topical family of nanoporous solids that have potential applications in molecular storage, separation and catalysis. This includes the... -
Structural Models of the Polymorphs of Gallium Oxide
Gallium oxide is an apparently simple oxide that has been reported to exist as at least 5 polymorphs all of which are stable at room temperature. Structural models, however, for... -
Structures of Gel Precursors of Nanoporous Materials
Nanoporous zeolites are well-known materials with huge industrial and commercial application in important areas yet their crystallisation mechanism remains under great debate.... -
Structures of New Niobates Prepared by Hydrothermal Synthesis
We have prepared some new highly crystalline mixed-metals oxides using mild hydrothermal reaction conditions. Some of these are doped niobates, related to the important...
