Rapid access for three days of OFFSPEC beam time is requested to expand our recent investigations of emergent magnetisation dynamics in ensembles of interconnected ring-shaped...

Rare Earths (REs) - Transition Metals (TMs) multilayers have a great importance in modern magnetism because of their unique properties due to their 4f orbitals: perpendicular...

Bilayers which float below a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) coated solid support represent one of the most advanced membrane mimetics. Recently (RB 1720155) we assessed the...

Silicon electrodes for Li-batteries have a ten times higher gravimetric energy density than current electrodes. The major drawback is the big capacity fading associated with the...

Due to increasing antibiotic resistance, bacteria membrane disrupting antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are of increasing interest as alternatives to classical antibiotics. AMPs are...

The elucidation of the compositional profile of polymer:small molecule nanoparticle films is critical for applications such as water processable organic solar cells. In order to...

The objective of this experiment is to use neutron reflectivity to study the surface structure and determine chemical depth profiles of Perflouropolyether-PDMS films in air and...

Ferrofluids are liquids having magnetic nanoparticles dispersed in a solvent and covered with surfactants to prevent them from agglomeration. The particles can form smectic like...

HSA-NEP is a fusion protein with potential uses in treating Alzheimer’s disease. It consists of Neprilysin, a peptide degrading enzyme, linked to HSA, the most common protein in...

Polymer solar cells (PSCs) open up new perspectives in the solar cell market. The morphology of the active layer of PSCs plays a crucial role on the corresponding device’s...

Multiferroic systems have more than one functionality, i.e. ferromagnetism, ferroelectricity, ferroelasticity and ferrotoroidicity. In nature there are few materials that...

Proton exchange membranes are essential components of devices where is required to transport H+ while blocking the flow of other ions and molecules used as reactants. The most...

Metal halide perovskites have enabled remarkable advancements in low-cost, high-performance optoelectronics, however their performance potential is restricted by an incomplete...

The transparent and low-cost nature of dye-sensitised solar cells (DSCs) affords them niche prospects for electricity-generating windows in buildings for energy-sustainable...

We propose to study the composition of metallic films of Cr, Co & Ni using specular NR measurements during electrolytic growth in deep eutectic solvent media in order to...

We want to measure the SESANS from a series of large ~1 micron silica particles formed using the multistage Stöber method. The reason for this is to determine if we can see the...

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....

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...
