Magnetic study of the new skyrmion-carrying material CoZnMn
Nanoscale magnetic skyrmions are swirl-like magnetisation entities that satisfy topological quantisation conditions. They can therefore not be easily unwound into another... -
Biskyrmion Magnetic Nanodomains in the MnNiGa single-crystalline Study by Sma...
Magnetic skyrmions are topological vortex-like spin objects that were recently discovered in bulk chiral magnetic materials. Several months ago we discovered super stable... -
SE-SANS investigation of natural shale swelling under oil-well conditions
Water-based drilling fluids are increasingly being used for oil and gas exploration. Unfortunately, their use leads to clay swelling which occurs in exposed sedimentary rocks... -
Elucidating buried structures using Offspec
This proposal is a continuation proposal (previous RB 1110285) utilising the Offspec instrument and is aimed at further understanding the utility of the spin echo grazing... -
Effect of oxidation on lipid raft formation: an off-specular neutron reflecti...
The very heterogeneous, but non-random, arrangement of lipids and proteins in cell membranes, known as rafts are of major scientific interest. Lipids in cell membranes are... -
Contrast Variation Experiments for Probing the Structure of Pickering Nanoemu...
Polymerisation-induced self-assembly is an efficient and versatile method of producing functional block copolymer spheres, worms and vesicles in a range of media (e.g. water,... -
Probing the effect of carbon chain length of hydrophobically modified polymer...
Competitive interaction exist in many formulations, especially in the case of hydrophobically modified polymers (HMPs), surfactants, and particles of differing surface... -
Temperature and flow stability of model sodium alkylbenzene sulfonate (NaLAS)...
Linear sodium alkylbenzene sulfonate (NaLAS) is one of the most extensively used anionic surfactant in the world, mainly as a biodegradable laundry detergent, with an annual... -
Alkylated Graphene nano-lubricant 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. 2-D graphene materials can provide... -

Systematic investigation of unexplained scattering in TOF-SESANS measurements
The development of SESANS as a measurement probe of structures with length scales in the size range of 100nm-20micrometers has progressed steadily over the past 5-10 years. The... -
Shape- and depletant- induced assembly of nanocolloids in submicron channels
Understanding the behavior of colloidal nanoparticles in submicron channels is essential for a number of technological challenges including fracture healing, channel-transport... -
Anion effects on self-assembly in deep eutectic solvents.
Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES) are mixtures of an organic salt with a hydrogen bond donor that form strong interactions which hinder crystallisation. DES share many features with... -

Exchange kinetics of complex coacervates core micelles
Coacervates have been studied for a long time for their unusual properties: they are dense networks of charged polymers that are soluble in water. Instead of flocculating when... -
Probing binary mixtures of hard spheres
As part of a larger programme we aim to test densely-packed binary mixtures of monodisperse hard sphere powders to determine local structure, to correlate with ratio of... -
Temperature driven self-assembly of amphiphilic block copolymers in water.
Amphiphilic copolymers with perfluoroalkyl blocks provide self-assembled nanostructures, in water, via the association and/or self-folding of the copolymer chains. This feature... -
Investigating the internal structure of thermally annealed two-component poly...
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... -
