One of the main challenges in spintronics research is to provide a link between magnetic elements and conventional electronic circuits. A novel approach to this old problem is...

The structure of ionic liquid (IL)-gas interfaces is currently a hot topic in the field and our understanding of pure ILs is improving. However, very little is known about the...

The structure of ionic liquid (IL)-gas interfaces is currently a hot topic in the field and understanding of the surface structure of pure ILs is improving. However, very little...

Antibody-antigen binding has been extensively used in many technological applications such as immunoassays, chemical analysis and bionanotechnology. The crucial element...

Plants do not have the sophisticated immunoglobulin immune systems of vertibrates, instead they posses a series of stimuli based responses which defend against pathogentic...

Besides green energy harvest the storage of energy is one major problem in modern world. The state-of-the-art battery systems nearly reached their theoretical limit. Therefore...

We will use neutron reflectivity measurements of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) layers at the air-water interface to help develop a realistic mimetic for the periphery of bacteria...

Our goal is to understand the role of POPS, a lipid component only found in the inner leaflet of plasma membrane, in the organization of cholesterol in cell membranes. Our...

Neutron reflectometry (NR) is a very powerful technique for the study of thin layers. It is able to measure composition, thickness and roughness and is a very penetrating...

Chiral magnetism in non-centrosymmetric systems that have a strong Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction is a burgeoning field, with chiral skyrmions attracting enormous interest....

A previous CRISP measurement allows us to show for the first time using PNR a change in the response due to superconductivity in an Fe/Pb/Fe tri-layer sample. This type of...

Much progress has been made researching organic solar cells (OSC) in the last two decades, but the field still holds surprises. Until recently, the general assumption was that...

We shall demonstrate the use of neutron reflectometry to obtain three-dimensional structures in a non-invasive experiment. Spinodal dewetting is one of the few areas where...

We aim at studying the interface between a ferromagnetic (FM) thin film and a topological insulator (TI). For accessing the spin-polarised state in a TI system via current...

Organic photovoltaics are a low cost alternative to existing photovoltaic materials and their efficiency is steadily increasing towards the point where their cost per Watt is...

To continue with our study on the interaction between superconducting (SC) and ferromagnetic (FM) order parameters we propose to study, by means of Polarized Neutron...

Morphological features of plant waxes vary from species to species, but little is understood about what controls these morphological changes although it is widely believed that...

We shall demonstrate the use of neutron reflectometry to obtain three-dimensional structures in a non-invasive experiment. Spinodal dewetting is one of the few areas where...

Spin echo small-angle neutron scattering (SESANS) beamtime is requested to study the growth of polymer nanolatices in novel microemulsion systems. The natural incompatibility of...

Topological insulators are one of the most important recent discoveries in condensed matter physics. The topological surface state can become gapped when ferromagnetic order is...
