Magnetic proximity effect and in-plane correlations in amorphous CoAlZr/FeZr ...
The purpose of this project work is to establish a broader understanding of the magnetic proximity effect observed in a magnetic amorphous multilayer. This will be achieved by... -
Comparison of Adsorbed Surfactant Behaviour under Poiseuille Flow to Cone-Pla...
As our understanding of surfactant interfacial behaviour grows it is important to assess the applicability of the results to industrial applications. In these cases there are... -
Understanding the skin barrier design: identifying the conformation of cerami...
The stratum corneum layer of the skin acts as a barrier between the body and the external environment. This is achieved by dead corneocytes encased in a lamellar lipid matrix,... -
Photooxidation of Secondary Atmospheric Aerosol from photo generated Toluene
Oxidation of urban aromatic atmospheric aerosol can produce cloud condensation nuclei capable of changing the reflectivity and lifetime of clouds. The oxidation of organic film... -
In situ Investigation of the Locations of Gas Molecules within a Decorated Po...
We request 4 days on WISH to study the preferred binding sites and locations of adsorbed gas molecules (CO2,NO2 and D2) within a decorated Al(III)-carboxylate porous framework... -
Muon probes of hydrogen-bond network in supercooled water
Muon diamagnetic fraction in liquid water is known to decrease with decreasing temperature probably because its formation mechanism results from the structural alternation and... -
quantitative dark field imaging using Larmor labelling
We will determine whether a neutron technique called dark field Lamor imaging can provide quantitative information about the spatial distribution of small inhomogeneities in... -
SANS from photoconductive hydrogel mixtures and their gelators.
Hydrogels are formed from a self?assembled network of fibres made up of small molecules (gelators) trap and hold water at just 1% by weight, or less, from the solution they are... -

Neutron reflectivity of water soluble conjugated polymer/surfactant films
Water-soluble conjugated polymers (WSCP) are an important class of materials which have received great attention as active materials in optoelectronic devices and in biosensing.... -
Characterisation of superalloys strengthened by Co3Ti
One method by which the efficiency of gas turbine engines may be improved is by increasing the gas stream temperature on entry to the turbine. Currently this temperature is... -
Hydration effects in gels for water splitting.
Storing the energy available from the sun as a fuel that can be used anytime is a major global challenge. Organic materials synthesised from abundant elements that can harness... -
High resolution measurement of mode Grueneisen parameters in the negative the...
ZrW2O8 is the classic example of a material exhibiting negative thermal expansion (NTE), i.e. lattice shrinkage on warming. The origin of this behaviour has been controversial... -
Magnetic ordering in the layered oxide arsenides Sr2CrO2Fe2As2 and Sr2CrO2Co2As2
This proposal is to probe the structure and magnetic ordering in Sr2CrO2Fe2As2 and Sr2CrO2Co2As2, in order to complete a description of trends in the Cr sublattice magnetic... -
Ice β-XV – a novel ice polymorph
Water molecules can form different hydrogen-bonded networks, a property known as ice polymorphism. So far 18 different networks have been characterized using neutron diffraction... -
Surfactants and additives at the metal-oil interface
The lubrication of surfaces by oils is a key aspect of many academic and industrial problems with significant financial implications. In this experiment we would like to extend... -
Investigating the structural effects of bioactivity enhancements in doped hyd...
We wish to gain a deeper understanding of where dopant cations and anions reside in hydroxyapatite (HA). We will substitute Sr, Si, 11B and S into the HA structure and determine... -
Kinetics of the ordering transition in ice Ih; crystal structure and thermal ...
Below 80 K ordinary water ice (ice Ih) undergoes a phase transition in which the randomly oriented molecules in the crystal adopt an ordered orientation. This ordered form of... -
Investigation of the nuclear and magnetic structures of GaV4S8-ySey materials
Skyrmions, nano-sized topological objects, have recently been found in GaV4S8 and GaV4Se8materials. In the search of new Skyrmion hosting materials, we have synthesised the... -
Validating a new theoretical method for predicting the HFC of small molecular...
ALC is the best technique to characterize muoniated radicals, which are produced by muonium adduct to unsaturated bonds in the organic molecules. Good agreement between data...
