Surfactant Adsorption in Multi Metal Deposition Fingerprint Enhancement
Multi metal deposition (MMD) is a new latent fingerprint enhancement technique that is extremely effective on plastics, including drug wraps and explosives wrapping; it is also... -
Surfactants 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. We would like to study, for the first time... -
Outer membrane mimics using novel thiol-PC
We have recently shown that dense monolayers of PC can be assembled on gold surfaces using a new omega thiol PC from Avanti. This has two advantages over our previous methods.... -
Interlayer coupling in YIG/NiO/Pt trilayers
The spin Seebeck effect is able to convert a temperature gradient into a spin current. Many potential applications exist for the field of spintronics, which use these spin... -
Investigation of Induced Magnetism at Graphene/EuO Interfaces
Interface effects are attracting a renewed interest in recent years. It resides in the fact that when an interface is formed the break of symmetry gives rise to entirely new... -
Understanding anaesthetics: Ethanol partitioning into lipid membranes, effect...
Ethanol plays an important role in the human metabolism. It is in particular known to act as a drug enhancer by increasing trans-membrane permeability, and as an anesthetic.... -
Examination of the Membrane Structure of Live Bacteria using Neutron Reflecto...
We propose to investigate in-vivo cell membrane structure of gram-positive (B. subtilis) and gram-negative (S. oneidensis) bacteria adhered to a silicon oxide surface using... -
PNR study on the exchange bias propagation in the FM/AFM/FM trilayer with a t...
Today, a number of technological devices, such as the readout sensor in the hard disc drive, have used the exchange bias (EB) effect, which arises in a... -
A Reversible pH-Driven DNA Nanoswitch
DNA is an extremely versatile building material for the development and assembly of functional nanostructures and nanodevices. There are numerous examples of DNA based... -
Study of the modified magnetization resulting from interfacial electronic rec...
Multiferroics are promising candidates for faster and cooler electronics. Due to the intrinsic incompatibility between the ferromagnetic (FM) and ferroelectric (FE) phases, it... -
Structure and activity of Membrane Proteins immobilised to solid supports.
Membrane Proteins (MPs) consist of about 1/3 of the proteome but the structural information available is very limited compared to that for soluble proteins. Despite this at... -
Surface charge induced layering of ionic liquids on mica
The structure of ionic liquids at charged interfaces is an exciting and vibrant area of current research. Previous surface force apparatus experiments have shown layering up to... -
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.... -
Structural Analysis of Water Multilayer in Lamellar Mesoporous Materials
Although the preparation of lamellar mesoporous materials (LMMs) is very difficult due to collapsion in removing the templating surfactant, we have successfully synthesized a... -
Structure of oxidised phospholipid bilayers
Biological membranes protect cells and are essential for their survival and damaged membranes may cause serious harm to the cell. A primary cause of damage to membranes is... -
Study of interface and induced magnetic moment in C60 in bi- and tri-layers o...
Single layer of Fe, bi- and tri-layers of C60/Fe are grown on MgO (001) substrate using DC magnetron sputtering and thermal evaporation for Fe and C60, respectively. The samples... -
Determination of interfacial dead layers and magnetic uniformity in half-meta...
Co-based Heusler alloys are predicted to be an ideal material for spintronics due to their high Curie temperature and potential in magnetic heterostructrue devices. We have...
