In Situ Measurement of the Spin Seebeck Effect in Multilayers
The spin Seebeck effect is a newly discovered phenomenon that if harnessed, could result in a significant improvement of the efficiency of thermoelectric energy generators. Spin... -
Determination of Organic Friction Modifier conformation under shear
Engine oils act to lubricate and protect moving parts in an engine. They act to reduce friction and reduce emissions. A major class of friction reducing additives are organic... -
Adsorption of Fab and Fc from monoclonal antibody at the oil/water interface
Following our previous study of adsorption of globular lysozyme and BSA, we continue to explore how different globular proteins adsorb at the oil/water interface by neutron... -
Neutron reflectometry from surface of liquid 3He/4He film on silicon wafer
As it was predicted theoretically by Andreev at zero temperature for dilute 3He in 4He mixtures, 3He atoms will form a 2D Fermi liquid at liquid helium surface. Direct... -
Magnetic contrast reflectometry to resolve transmembrane potential effects on...
The division of bacteria is controlled by the binding of proteins to the inner of the two lipid bilayer membranes that separates the inside of the cell from the outside world.... -
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... -

Substrate-dependent structure of thin hydrogel films
Hydrogels are water-rich polymer networks made from natural or synthetic polymers, which are widely used in biomaterials, medicine and antifouling. We have developed PEG-based... -
Determining the nanostructure of PCBM in thin film photovoltaics
Organic photovoltaics (OPVs) are a low cost alternative to existing photovoltaic materials. The efficiency of OPVs is steadily increasing towards the point where their cost per... -
Quasi-elastic neutron scattering using Neutron Spin echo
We propose a measurement of the effectiveness of using the RF flippers on Offspec in a quasi-elastic mode (theta=90°) with the RF at 0.5MHz. This is important to our future... -
PNR determination of magnetic interface states in ultrathin FePt/FeRh films
We propose to use polarized neutron reflectivity (PNR) to investigate the structural and magnetic properties of thin (< 10nm) exchange coupled FePt/FeRh films. FePt/FeRh is... -
Neutron scattering from topological magnetic structures in Fe1-xCoxSi
FeSi is a member of the transition metal (TM) monosilicides. The crystal structure is isostructural from MnSi through to CoSi with magnetic properties that alter dramatically... -
Temperature-induced structural changes of Organic Friction Modifier films at ...
Engine oils provide lubrication to moving components in engines, improving vehicle lifespans whilst reducing emissions and fuel consumption by minimising friction. A common... -
Comparative Interaction Studies of Antimicrobial Agents on Floating Asymmetri...
The outer membrane (OM) of Gram-Negative bacteria (GNB) is an asymmetric structure which contains complex lipids known as lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) on the outer surface. LPSs... -
Magnetic contrast reflectometry to resolve transmembrane potential effects on...
The division of bacteria is controlled by the binding of proteins to the inner of the two lipid bilayer membranes that separates the inside of the cell from the outside world.... -
In-situ reflectometry studies of hydrogen cycling in Mg/Ti multilayers
We ask for 3 days of beam time on CRISP to study the absorption and desorption of hydrogen and deuterium in two Mg/Ti multilayer samples. Our specific objective is to understand... -
Dynamic Nuclear Polarization in GaAs by electrical spin injection
We propose to measure the dynamic nuclear polarization in a GaAs-based structure caused by electrical injection of a spin-polarized current using polarized neutron... -
Enhanced polarisation in platinum films adjacent to half-metallic Co2FeAl
The half-metallic Heusler alloy Co2FeAl (CFA) is a promising candidate material for high-frequency spintronic devices. As many of these device structures involve bilayers of CFA... -
Combining polarised neutrons and resonant x-rays to understand temperature-de...
Despite being a well-known phenomenon, the mechanism by which platinum gains a magnetic moment by proximity to a ferromagnetic (FM) thin film remains unknown. We aim to... -
Characterization of antiferromagnetic fluoride layers through PNR
Lithium fluoride (LiF) doping of aluminum electrodes is used in organic electronics. As a result of the chemical reaction between LiF and aluminum, the contact resistance is...
