The transformation of CO2 produced by the chemical industry into methanol is a sustainable carbon recycling process that can both reduce the total emitted CO2, and help fulfil...

The dual nature of 5f electrons in uranium compounds, partially localised, partially itinerant, has long been known to play a pivotal role in their fundamental behaviours....

Cr-doped UO2 nuclear fuel (E-ATF) is studied for its improved behaviour in case of accident. Nevertheless, experimental data are necessary to understand the influence of Cr...

Aiming at designing novel magnetic materials, we are coordinating theoretical calculations and fabrication of heterostructure systems magnetically tailored by strain...

The need for efficient and environmentally friendly heating/cooling systems is increasing. The use of heat-pump based on solid state phase transformation are promising, in...

We are developing novel MOFs to improve processes such as artificial nitrogen fixation and hydrogen storage. They show higher production rates and greater stability and...

As a continuation of the work on verifying operando XAS fuel cell utilizing Pd@CeOx catalysts, we propose an operando XAS measurement of another core-shell Pd@TiOx material on...

A rational approach to designing magnetic materials requires a shift from exploratory to hypothesis-driven synthesis. Challengingly, the complex phase space of solid-state...

The aim of the proposed experiment is to map the strain in quartz grains and its distribution in different regions of porcelain stoneware ceramics, in order to understand the...

Sodium-ion batteries are a promising, cost-effective alternative to cobalt-based systems, with Prussian Blue (PB) as a standout cathode material. While their electrochemical...

Phase-pure BBC-structured Na4(B10H10)(B12H12), a closo-borate-type electrolyte, has been synthesised for the first time. Its Na-ion conductivity shows complex pressure...

We will use six-dimensional (6D) dark-field X-ray microscopy (DFXM) at the new beamline ID03 to obtain a detailed view of the strain landscape in parabolic Ge/Si1-xGex quantum...

Manganese (Mn) plays a crucial role in plants in photosynthesis, synthesis of antioxidants, and cell wall compounds. Efficient transport of Mn within and between cells, mediated...

Cation ordering at A or B sites of the ABO3 perovskite structure gives AA’B2O6 or A2BB’O6 double perovskites (DPvs) and 1:1 cation ordering at both sites can give AA’BB’O6...

The outstanding research questions of our BAG (now expanded to 9 PIs) focus on proteins and their complexes involved in a variety of processes, ranging from cell homeostasis...

Animals sense painful stimuli through specialized sensory neurons on the skin and generate nocifensive behaviours to protect themselves from severe injury. Specialized sensory...

To date, only a little more than a handful of meltable zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) are known, all of them are rather dense frameworks of low porosity. The liquid...

Layered perovskites with Ruddlesden–Popper-type structures are fundamentally important for low-dimensional properties, for example, photovoltaic hybrid iodides and...

The aim of this project is to combine highly complementary imaging methods – i.e., scanning small angle x-ray scattering, fast bright field microscopy and visible light...
