Unravelling spin fluctuation components in a stripe-ordered cuprate
In previous experiments at ILL we observed a gap in the magnetic excitation spectrum of the stripe-ordered superconductor (La,Nd)2-xSrxCuO4, x=0.12. We observed a spin gap of... -
Structures of New Doped RuO2 Rutiles
We have prepared some new mixed-metal oxides using a chemical synthesis approach that provides access to materials not seen using other techniques. The materials are potentially... -
Decomposition studies of Li(1-x)NaxND2, LiNa2(ND2)3 and Li3Na(ND2)4
We ask for 3 days on GEM to study in-situ the decomposition of the Na-substituted LiNH2 phases, Li1-xNaxND2, LiNa2(ND2)3, Li3Na(ND2)4 and their reactions with LiD. LiNH2 is the... -
Anomalous lattice dynamics of the elemental superconductor niobium
Phonon lifetimes in BCS superconductors provide information on the details of the electron-phonon coupling mechanism. In 2008 high-resolution neutron inelastic scattering... -
Pressure-induced high-spin low-spin transition in MnS2 and MnTe2
Pressure induced high-spin (HS) to low-spin (LS) transition in MnS2 was speculated by Chattopadhyay and von Schnering more than twenty years ago from their high pressure X-ray... -
Low temperature localised/delocalised transport regime transitions in the P3H...
The aims of this proposal are to study the ALC resonance in crystalline and disordered P3HT at temperatures below 4.2K, as for crystalline P3HT a cross-over between localised... -

Neutron scattering investigation of the influence of high hydrostatic pressur...
Amyloid fibrils are highly organized filamentous structures formed by the self-assembly of polypeptides. This proposal is to study the effect of pressure on the structure of... -
Unidentified Phase Transition in Polar Lanthanum Tantalate (LaTaO4)
The family of crystals with formula ABX4 represent a very interesting class of ferroelectrics that are extremely two-dimensional. Fluorides have been extensively researched but... -
Investigating the ALCs of organic-inorganic hybrid semiconductors under elect...
The push globally for greener energy supplies has led to the discovery of new solar cell materials, which consist of an organic molecule surrounded by eight PbX5 octahedras... -
The XY pyrochlore AFM:spin dynamics upon rare-earth dilution in Er2Ti2O7 (CON...
Er2Ti2O7 constitutes an experimental realization of the <111> easy-plane pyrochlore AFM and orders at 1.1 K into the theoretically predicted spin structure. However, the... -
The coupling of spin and charge correlations in La2-xSrxCuO4
Charge density wave (CDW) order has recently been established as a generic feature of high-temperature cuprate superconductors. It occurs near 1/8 doping and has been observed... -
High-pressure powder neutron diffraction study in Pd2MnIn
Intermetallic ternary full Heuslers have potential spintronic applications, due to a possible link between the mechanisms for magnetism and half-metallicity in these systems.... -
Effect of reversing lipid head group charge on vesicular properties
Zwitterionic lipids such as phosphatidylcholine (PC) are major components of the membranes that compartmentalize organisms. Although there is a large literature on PC, cationic... -
Spin excitations in the first magnetic Weyl semimetal Co3Sn2S2
In contrast to the extensively verified Weyl semimetals with broken inversion symmetry, magnetic Weyl semimetals, which break time reversal symmetry, were only theoretically... -
Optimisation of Experimental Conditions for the Study of Anionic Self-Assembl...
We have developed a Self-assembled floating supported membrane sample system comprised of unsaturated phospholipid bilayers held ~1nm from a PEGylated charged alkane thiol SAM... -
In situ studies of mixed-phase oxygen transport membranes
The oxygen transport membrane is a system being developed by St Andrews in conjunction with industry, which at high temperatures will allow the selective migration of oxygen... -
Manipulating surface adsorption of SLES surfactants using temperature
Although surfactant detergency is well understood above 30 C, actions of surfactants below 30 C are not well established. In the era of energy saving and environment caring, we...
