Structural Investigation of HxLiyWO3

The proposing team is interested in exploring the rotational and translational dynamics of molecular hydrogen trapped in water-based cages (clathrate hydrates). These systems...

Here we propose the investigation of intermediate compounds obtained during the decomposition of the multicomponent hydrogen storage system 2 LiBH4 : MgH2 using ex-situ...

The Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction is thought to be responsible for the stabilization of weak ferromagnetism or magnetic spiral states in a number of diverse systems. An...

The drive for increasing energy efficiency and reducing greenhouse gas emissions has garnered increasing support for the use of fuel cell technology, which offers the potential...

Nickel based super alloys are utilized at high temperatures, in aggressive environments, and therefore important for aeroengine applications. RR1000 is a nickel-based...

Due to the tunable interplay between magnetism and superconductivity the CenTmIn3n+2m (n, m = 1, 2; T = Co, Ir, Rh, Pd, Pt) family of heavy fermion compounds has been attractive...

Among the rare earth titanates and stannates cristallising in the pyrochlore crystal structure, Tb2Ti2O7 is a singular system since its ground state is believed to be a spin...

Today, about seventy years after Laves, there exists a fairly good knowledge about the basic structural principles of Laves phases but many questions still remain. AMn-type...

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...

Our recent musr studies on CeT 2Al10 (T=Os and Ru) reveal a clear sign of long range magnetic ordering below 28 K in both the compounds. More interestingly the frequency...

CeIr3Si2 exhibits highly anisotropic bulk properties with two magnetic transitions at TN1 ~ 3.9 K and TN2 ~ 3.1 K. The overall CEF splitting of the J=5/2 ground multiplet of...

Using the Emu spectrometer at ISIS we have recently studied charge carrier transport in the technologically important molecule 8-hydroxy-quinoline aluminium, by probing the...

The wetting of solid surfaces by gases and liquids is both fundamentally and technologically important especially in the areas of energy storage and conversion, e.g. catalysis....

YbPd crystallizes in the cubic CsCl-type structure and reported to have magnetically ordered ground state with the mixed valence of the Yb ion. Further, it under goes through...

The drive for increasing energy efficiency and reducing greenhouse gas emissions has garnered increasing support for the use of fuel cell technology, which offers the potential...

Amyloid fibrils are highly organized filamentous structures formed by the self-assembly of polypeptides. This proposal is to study the effect of pressure on the structure of...

We will investigate bulk and nano size ceria and zinc oxide prepared by solvothermal methods to determine the defect chemistry associated with these solids. We will use neutron...

In this proposal we propose to continue our investigation into the LaNiC2 non-centrosymmetric superconductors. Previously, we have shown that in this system time reversal...

We propose to investigate on INES the mineralogical composition of a collection of ceramic fragments from three different archeological sites in the Modena area (Italy). These...
