Absolute normalisation of spectra in DINS experiments:exploring the route to ...
The aim of this proposal is to investigate in the methodology of Deep Inelastic Neutron Scattering (DINS) data analysis, with especial emphasis in the absolute normalisation of... -
CuH: a (nearly) 200 year old problem SANDALS
Copper (I) hydride, CuH, is unique amongst the binary metal hydrides in that it can be synthesised, at room temperature, in aqueous solution. In recent years CuH generated in... -
Temperature dependence of magnetic dead-layers: a possible route to novel 2D ...
We propose to investigate the temperature dependence of magnetic dead-layer thickness in amorphous ferromagnetic CoFeTaB films on Si and GaAs semiconductor substrates. Magnetic... -
Magnetism in a charge doped cuprate chain
We have recently succeeded in measuring the excitation spectrum of charge doped cuprate chains with a 90 degree Cu-O-Cu bonding geometry. This study resolved a long standing... -
Towards an improved understanding of the active phase of iron based Fischer-T...
The applicants have recently completed a series of INS studies on a model iron Fischer-Tropsch catalyst. That work established that different sample pre-treatments could... -
Designing polymer therapeutics to diffuse through mucin
Progress in the development of nano-sized hybrid therapeutics and nano-sized drug delivery systems - "nanomedicines" - over the last decade has been remarkable. One key... -
Na order and diffusion in NaxCoO2: a route to tuning of thermoelectric & magn...
Recently there have been many reports on how high-temperature sodium order and dynamics in NaxCoO2 (NCO) can strongly influence both the electronic & magnetic properties at... -
Optimising the Haupt effect: the route toward application
The implementation of quick temperature cycles over the temperature range 2-40K in g-picoline has lead to the first observation of a redistribution of scattered intensity in... -
