Silk fibrillogenesis: Morphology, structure and hydration of the intermediate...

At the heart of protein¿s aggregation are specific molecular events; and how they are modulated by changes in solvent conditions is key to our understanding and control of...

Transition metal carbides via novel, ultrafast microwave synthesis; Reaction ...

We are investigating the ultra-rapid synthesis of transition metal carbides using microwave (MW) irradiation. Currently we are establishing an understanding of these reactions...

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...

Inelastic Neutron Scattering and Raman spectroscopy on 2,2-Paracyclophane

[2,2]-Paracyclophane, C16H16, is a small molecule containing both sp2 and sp3 hybridized carbon atoms. Despite of its apparent simplicity, its solid state structure and...

In-situ Neutron Diffraction Studies of the Lithium Ion Battery Cathodes Li2MS...

This application focuses on the study of two important lithium ion battery materials. We intend to use our newly developed cell design which allows for the cycling of battery...

Pressure-induced changes in intermediate range order in the candidate polyamo...

This proposal is a continued exploration of the non-recoverable changes that have been reported in the structure of vitreous SiO2 when compressed. This proposed experiment will...

Defect Structure in Lead Doped Bismuth Yttrates

Stabilised bismuth oxides are of interest as intermediate temperature solid electrolytes for a variety of electrochemical device applications. Lead doping into bismuth yttrate...

Insight into the atomic and intermediate level structure of spherical and rod...

Here we propose to look at the structure of two phosphocholine lipids, and their larger scale structures in aqueous solution. Depending on the length of the fatty acid chain in...

Inelastic magnetic scattering in CePd3

CePd3 is a classic intermediate valence (IV) system. In MAPS experiment 620167 we obtained an important qualitative result for CePd3, namely that the Kondo-like scattering...

The intermediate stages of hydrogen disorder to order phase transitions in ice

In recent years, our team has discovered three new phases of ice: ices XIII, XIV and XV. On the basis of calorimetric data and some limited diffraction data collected on GEM we...

High Temperature Spin Transition in LaCoO3

We aim to continue our investigation of the high temperature magnetic interactions in LaCoO3. Our previous experiment has confirmed magnetic susceptibility data, with a change...

Solvent-induced curvature of micelles

The purpose is to follow a structural evolution as water soluble (normal curvature) micelles are gradually transformed into oil soluble (reversed curvature) aggregates. Although...
