Surface adsorption of lipopeptides: interfacial layer structure
Lipopeptide surfactants are highly effective at reducing interfacial tension. However, there is a general lack of understanding of the relationship between their molecular... -
Interfacial layer structure of designed lipopeptides at the solid/water inter...
Lipopeptide surfactants are a group of interesting biosurfactants due to their natural origin and their high effectiveness at reducing interfacial tension. However, there is a... -
Influence of the cation disorder on the magnetic properties of underdoped cup...
We want to isolate the effects of doping, charge localization and local distortion on the transition from insulating antiferromagnet to superconducting metal in YBCO. We choose... -
Polymer layer structure in stabilised metal nanoparticles for heterogenous ca...
The controlled synthesis of precious metal nanoparticles of the appriopriate chemical composition, optimised size and morphology for use in catalysis is an ongoing experimental... -
Sustainable polymeric deposition aids
This is a new programme of work and a collaboration between CCLRC, Oxford, Unilever and Manchester. It is concerned with polymer aided deposition to solid substrates, using... -
Neutron reflection from 3He layer adsorbed on liquid 4He surface
More than four decades ago A. F. Andreev predicted theoretically the existence of quantum states of 3He atoms on free surface of liquid 4He . In other words, at low... -
Insertion of antimicrobial peptides into phospholipid monolayers at air/liqui...
We have designed a series of cationic peptides with different helix repeats that can kill bacteria but remain benign to mammalian host cells. The selectivity to cell types is... -
Magnetism in novel organic/inorganic hybrid spin-valve nanostructures.
We request 5 days (15 shifts) with CRISP to perform specular measurements on novel functionalized SrTiO3(substrate)/complex FM oxide/small molecules/ FM metal nanostructures to... -

Determining the nanostructure of the active layer in thin film organic photov...
Organic photovoltaics are a low cost alternative to existing photovoltaic materials and their efficiency is steadily increasing towards the point where their cost per Watt is... -
Interfacial layer structure of peptide surfactants: the effect of hydrophobic...
Short peptide sequences consisting of hydrophobic and hydrophilic amino acid units are capable of self-assembly to lead to interfacial adsorption and solution nano-aggregation.... -
Anomalous Layer at a Nematic-Air Interface
The aim is to establish the nature of the surface layer of 8CB at the nematic-air interface by measuring neutron reflection from three differently deuterated versions of 8CB.... -

Probing the interfacial wetting of superhydrophobic, lithographically pattern...
Phenomena surrounding the wetting of natural or artificial topographically patterned surfaces are found systems associated with the diverse fields of chemical engineering,... -
Measuring the structure of a poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) gel layer under compress...
Polymers adsorbed or otherwise attached to interfaces provide an extremely powerful tool to control the forces that act between interfaces. The functionality of these attached... -
Insoluble layer formation in polymer bilayers
In a previous neutron reflectivity(NR) measurement (RB620370) on CRISP, we showed that the insoluble interlayer formed between the charge injection layer and a semiconducting... -

Protein density profile near protein-resistant self-assembled monolayers: Sen...
Oligo(ethylene glycol) self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) effectively prevent the adsorption of proteins from biological media. Despite the importance of this effect for... -
Novel block bottlebrush polyelectrolytes: The effect of cationic block charge...
In this work we will study a novel block copolymers consisting of a linear cationic block and uncharged bottle-brush block having 45 units long poly(ethylene oxide) side chains....
