Specular Reflectivity and Off-specular scattering from artificial magnetic do...
The study investigates artificially designed in-plane magnetic domain patterns by polarised neutron reflectometry and off-specular scattering. Stripe domains with in-plane... -
Surface activity of biosurfactant (sophorolipid) / surfactant mixtures
Understanding the fundamental aspects of the surface adsorption and self-assembly of biosurfactant and biosurfactant / conventional surfactant mixtures is a major challenge for... -
Influence of chemical composition on the macroscopic properties of industrial...
Our previous proposals on ceramic glazes were rejected due to the high number of chemical components listed in the proposed (industrially typical) samples. Unfortunately the... -
Understanding oxygen-muonium interaction in liquid water
Dissolved molecular oxygen in solution depolarizes muonium because ground-state molecular oxygen has triplet electrons and is paramagnetic. People normally remove them from... -
Study of cold moderator materials by Transmission and Deep Inelastic Neutron ...
Cold neutrons are widely used in different fields of research such as the study of the structure and dynamics of solids and liquids, the investigation of magnetic materials,... -
Low-temperature structures of Prussian blue analogues for electrochemical app...
We propose a low-temperature diffraction study at POLARIS of Prussian blue analogues (PBAs) of general formula NaxMM'(CN)6, where 1 < x 2. These systems currently attract... -
1D magnetic structure of a multiferroic metal-formate perovskite
The metal-organic framework perovskite analogue guanadinium copper(II) formate has achieved considerable recent attention for its multiferroic properties and consequent... -
Kinetics of Protein Adsorption on well-characterised polymer brushes
We wish to develop a rational understanding of the mechanisms underlying the way water soluble polymer brushes - in particular those of polyethylene oxide/polyethylene glycol -... -
A high pressure structural study of the charge transfer complexes of pyridine...
We propose a high-pressure powder neutron diffraction study of the simple donor-acceptor complexes (C5D5N)...ICl and (C5D5N)...IBr . These are the simplest structurally... -
Spin Seebeck Devices - The Future of TEGs?
The spin Seebeck effect is a relatively new phenomena that could be harnessed for waste heat recovery. Its advantages lie with a new device architecture (compared to... -
Adsorption of benzotriazole onto copper/copper oxide surface from non-aqueous...
Benzotriazole (BTAH) has been known to be a very effective corrosion inhibitor for copper and its alloys. Adsorption of BTAH from oil is a relatively less researched area... -
Determining the Structure of Simple Stratum Corneum Lipid Models for Drug Del...
Using a simple model we wish to mimic the lipid structure of the stratum corneum (the top layer of the skin). The simple model offers several advantages to our research area... -
The Ability of Trimethylamine N-Oxide to Resist Pressure Induced Structural P...
Trimethylamine N-Oxide (TMAO) is thought to have the extraordinary ability of allowing organisms to adapt to extreme environments of high pressure, the most famous example being... -
Magnetoelectric coupling in the polycrystalline ceramic BiFeO3 - PbTiO3
There are a number of room temperature multiferroics based on BiFeO3. The BiFeO3 - PbTiO3 (BFPT) system shows ferroelectric and antiferromagnetic ordering at room temperature... -
Polyamorphism in Glassy GeO2
The object of this proposal is to determine, by using neutron diffraction, the nature of the polyamorphic phase transition that occurs in glassy GeO2 with increasing pressure.... -
Neutron reflectivity study of bacterial lipopolysaccharide interactions with ...
Bacterial LPS (endotoxin) is a key determinant of host/pathogen interactions. We propose to investigate the role of membrane lateral phase separation on LPS insertion into model... -
Iron Oxide Nanoparticle Interactions with Lipid Bilayers in a Magnetic Field
Iron oxide nanoparticles are one of the first nanomaterials to be approved for use in the body. However, research into particle binding and incorporation to, as well as... -
