Investigating the stability and energetics of the hidden low temperature skyr...
Magnetic skyrmions are topologically protected spin structures with potential uses in low power devices. Cu2OSeO3 is a cubic material containing both skyrmions and other spin... -
Neutron scattering of coke deposits on catalytic samples - MAPS
Catalysts used for water-gas shift reactions, and other important industrial processes, often suffer from deposition of hydrocarbon and carbon species (coking) to reduce their... -
MuSR study on optically injected electronic spin in GaAs
In the field of semiconductor spintronics, n-type GaAs has been utilized as a prototype system, where one can inject electronic spin and study its behavior with optical... -
Direct spectroscopy of muon donor and acceptor levels in silicon carbide
We will perform direct laser spectroscopy to measure the ionisation energy of muon defect levels in a semiconductor - specifically silicon carbide. We should see a broad... -
Partial freezing of a Kagome Magnet
Ever since the first published consideration of the ground state of a triangular lattice of Ising spins by PW Andersen in the 50's, the pursuit of materials with geometrically... -
Amorphous Micrometre-Sized Water Ice Particles for Planetary Science Experime...
We request 5 days on NIMROD to characterise the pressure and temperature dependent properties of amorphous icy particles generated in liquid ethane, as they will be used in... -
Self-diffusion of water-ethanol mixtures
This project will investigate the self-diffusion of ethanol-water mixtures to support our work on supramolecular gels in drug delivery. As these solvent mixtures are safe to use... -
Neutron reflectivity for lithium battery SEI formation
We will use neutron reflectivity to probe the formation of the passivating layer which forms on lithium battery electrodes, which ultimately governs their long term performance.... -
Interaction of lamellar and non-lamellar lipid mesophases with inorganic nano...
The behavior of inorganic nanoparticles (NPs) with biological interfaces is a key research topic, to boost Nanomedicine development. In this respect, 2D lipid assemblies are... -
Dynamics of an antimicrobial oligopeptide
Abstract. In experiments at LLB and ILL we have measured low-resolution INS spectra and elastic scans for H2O- and D2O-hydrated samples of a 15-residue oligopeptide between 30... -
