Iron-based superconductors with molecular spacer layers: probing Li diffusion...
All known iron-based superconductors comprise layers of FeAs or FeSe with some combination of group I, group II or lanthanide oxide layers, and usually some doping. To make... -
Surface layers in organosols
This research project addresses an overlooked, but fundamental issue of colloid science: surfactant adsorption dynamics at nanoparticle-organosolvent interfaces. Adsorption of... -
Structure and encapsulation of additives in spray coated surfactant templated...
This proposal continues our work into surfactant templated films formed from surfactant/polyelectrolyte solutions. Recently we have been studying the encapsulation of... -
Interfacial adsorption of single alkyl chain PC surfactants (CnPmC)
We propose to investigate the interfacial adsorption of a series of water-soluble single chain PC surfactants using neutron reflection, focusing on assessing the effects of... -

We propose to make neutron reflectivity measurements of the weak polyelectrolyte, poly(dimethy amino ethyl methacrylate), grown from two different surface densities of initiator... -
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... -
Two-Dimensional Triangular Mott Insulator
The 1T polytype of the transition-metal dichalchogenide TaS2 is a system with a very rich phase diagram. Upon cooling down, the crystal goes through a series of charge density... -

By polarized neutron reflectometry we want to investigate the magnetic field profile in Y(1-x)PrxBa2Cu3O7/La(2/3)Ca(1/3)MnO3 high-Tc superconductor/ferromagnet superlattices. In... -
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.... -
Can surfactants be pushed out of polymer layers by applying compression?
For many applications such as paints, foods and drug formulations, aggregation of colloidal particles is prevented by combining polymer and surfactant adsorption. Key to this... -
Structures and magnetism of iron arsenide superconductors with widely separat...
The recent discovery of superconductivity in a series of iron pnictide materials has provided impetus to the field of new materials discovery. Like in the cuprate... -
Amide monolayers at the polymer melt air interface
This proposal seeks to identify and characterise the adsorption of primary linear amides that adsorb to the surface from the bulk of a polymer melt. These layers are... -
