Search for the magnetic photon in a candidate quantum spin ice
Recent theoretical analyses of quantum spin ice has revealed the present of a novel magnetic excitation whose quantum properties are analogous to photons. This mode is a... -
Higher resolution inspection of the hydrocarbon pool connected with the metha...
The reaction of methanol to form hydrocarbons over zeolite catalysts is an important option for conversion of natural gas or coal to liquid fuels. We have shown previously via... -
Hydrogen from ammonia using lithium imide metal nitride composites
Light metal amides and imides are a new class of highly active ammonia decomposition catalysts. Indeed, composites of lithium imide and transition metal nitrides are likely to... -
Search for the spin liquid phase in terbium gallium garnet.
Usually, magnetic materials can be understood by imagining them as orderly rows of communicating, atomic-sized bar magnets (or "spins") which organize themselves into a... -

In situ D2 sorption in NaxLi6-xC60
Sodium and lithium intercalated C60 have been recently demonstrated to be a new class of hydrogen absorbers thanks to their capacity to dissociate H2 molecule at moderate... -
Musr study of non-Fermi-liquid behaviour in the layered quasi-2D compound: Ce...
: Recently it has been reported from specific heat, resistivity, and susceptibility measurements that CeRh2Ga exhibits very interesting NFL behaviour. The specific heat divided... -
Determination of the Magnetic Properties of LaFeAs1-xPxO Across Multiple Magn...
LaFeAs1-xPxO has recently been proposed to display unusual properties as a function of P doping with two distinct superconducting (SC) domes separated by a possible AFM phase as... -
Neutron diffraction study of the buckled kagome-lattice Cu3R(SeO3)2O2Cl (R=Yb...
The experimental realization of a S=1/2 kagome lattice has been one of the holy grail of frustrated magnetism because when all antiferromagnetic exchanges cannot be satisfied, a... -
When like-charged ions attract: Size and distribution of cationic clusters in...
Contrary to the strong electrostatic repulsion between like charged ions, last year the Ludwig group, used IR and NMR spectroscopy combined with computational methods, to reveal... -
Phase Separation and Jahn Teller Distortion in Molybdate Perovskites
Two days of beamtime on HRPD will be used to examine a family of double perovskites Sr2YbMO6 that are isostructural at room temperature. When M = Mo5+ the monoclinic perovskite... -
Pressure dependence of the crystal structure of the strongly correlated bilay...
Ruthenium-oxides are important strongly correlated electron systems: the bilayer ruthenate Sr3Ru2O7 shows field-induced electronic order, while single-layer Sr2RuO4 is an exotic... -
Temperature-dependent crystal structure analysis of new pyrochlore ruthenate ...
In search for new materials with exotic electronic states, one often turns to strongly correlated materials. Ruthenium oxides attract attention as they exhibit intriguing... -
In Search of Superionic Conductivity of Mg2+ Cations
The migration of cations with a charge greater than 1 has received very little attention historically, perhaps due to no commercially driven demand for the research as well as... -
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.... -
Phase behaviour in Polymer-Photovoltaic Thin Film Blends
In polymer-fullerene based photovoltaic systems the phase behaviour of the blends is poorly understood and remains a fundamental stumbling block to improvements in device... -
Modelling of surfactant phase behaviour versus concentration below ambient te...
We wish to understand how the concentration of surfactant mixtures in solution affects adsorption at lower temperatures; in particular, we wish to see how the composition of the... -
High-pressure studies of inorganic azides
This proposal seeks to identify and structurally characterise the high-pressure phases of the azide salts of sodium, silver, lead, and the ammonium ion. Azides are examples of... -
The use of INS to evaluate evolutionary processes associated with bringing ir...
In collaboration with a major provider of Fischer-Tröpsch synthesis (FTS) catalytic technology, the research team have recently demonstrated how INS can be used to probe iron... -
Reflectometry studies of the mechanism of formation of mesoporous silicate fi...
Surfactant-silica self-assembly processes have been extensively studied since the discovery of M41S mesoporous materials in 1992. Mesoporous silicate films can be grown from...
