Investigation of interface magnetic structure of Gd/Co multilayer
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... -
Spin anisotropy in the isovalent doped iron pnictides Ba0.9Sr0.1Fe2As2
Understanding the electronic anisotropic state at a temperature associated with the nematic phase is unresolved problems in iron pnictides. Although many experiments focus on... -
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... -
Understanding the evolution of a magnetic soliton after nucleation 3d magneti...
The aim of this proposal is to understand the initial propagation of a sharp magnetic soliton after nucleation in tall synthetic ferrimagnetic structures (with six and eight... -
Diffuse scattering studies of squaric acid in an applied electric field
Organic ferroelectric compounds such as KH2PO4 and squaric acid, have attracted much interest in the past due to their potential in applications [1]. This interest has been... -
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... -
Surfactant chain length effects on styrene incorporation in PEI/surfactant films
We have been studying the formation of solid polymer-surfactant films at the air-solution interface formed from cationic surfactants with PEI. We wish to use the highly... -
Chiral Magnetism in the room temperature skyrmion-carrying material CoZn
Chiral skyrmions are one of the most active areas of research in magnetism. A skyrmion is a topological stable soliton in which outer spins lie parallel to the applied field and... -
The high pressure structure of deuterium
Of all the stable elements hydrogen(deuterium) is the least well studied from a structural point of view. Not one of its crystal structures has been fully charecterised. This... -
Defects in the Core Oligosaccharide in Gram Negative Bacterial Outer Membrane...
The outer membrane of Gram negative bacterial is an effective barrier for many harmful agents. We have been developing and testing advanced models of the Gram negative bacterial... -
Analysing the chemical surface of Perfluoropolyether-Polydimethyll Siloaxane ...
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... -
Time Resolved Studies on Inorganic Film Formation at the Air-Solution Interface
In a recent SURF experiment on the formation of silica films templated with cat-anionic/polymer complexes we found that the film growth and evolution occurs on a faster time... -
Comparison of Adsorption at the Native Aluminium Oxide/Oil and Alumina/Oil In...
In this proposal we investigate the suitability of a-alumina as a model for the natural oxide formed on aluminium metal. Alumina is often used as a model for the metal system... -
Remanence driven assembly of magnetic nanoparticles on a silicon wafer coated...
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... -
Ferromagnetic Topological Insulators A Hot Topic
In the quest to find high-temperature ferromagnetic topological insulators (TIs), we have explored different transition-metal and rare-earth doped thin film and bulk samples... -

Hydrogen Embrittlement in Metals Deposited from Deep Eutectic Solvents
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... -
Local origin of the fluctuating groundstate in an S=1/2 spinel
Upon cooling, all common liquids are observed to freeze. This observation is similarly ubiquitous for magnetic materials, where the magnetic moments most often line up in a... -
Single-Crystal Neutron Diffraction Study on [U(C5Me5)2(H)(mu¿H)]2
To our knowledge, the length of the U¿H single bond has never been accurately measured, at least not in a molecular compound by single-crystal neutron diffraction. We currently... -
Galvanostatic Dissolution of Multilayer Metal Systems in DES Studed using Eve...
Here we propose a study that will contribute to the final challenges of PhD training programme (Emma Palin). We will study the electrochemical dissolution of a bi-metallic films...
