Thermal expansion and phase transition in magnesium sulfate trihydrate
A recent single-crystal study determined the crystal structure of MgSO4.3D2O, and discovered that a first-order phase transition occurs when the crystal is cooled below 245 K.... -
Phase behaviour and dielectric phenomena in bismuth niobate energy storage ma...
Bismuth niobate (BiNbO4) is widely used in multilayer RF and microwave components such as capacitors and chip layer capacitors. This compound exhibits two main structural forms... -

Misfit and Misfit Release in Co-Co3(Al,W) Superalloys
The effect of alloying additions (Ni, Fe, Cr, Ta, Mo, V, Ti, Si) on the misfit of developmental Co-Al-W alloys will be examined using Polaris. The Co3(Al,W) precipitate phase... -
Structure and cation ordering in A2Sn3Q7-type phases (A=In, Cr; Q= S, Se)
We wish to exploit the contrast afforded by neutrons to study the ordering of In and Sn cations in indium tin chalcogenides. Cation ordering has been inferred from spectroscopic... -
The ferroelectric phase transition in Dion-Jacobson layered perovskites
Several distinct families of layered perovskites have been shown experimentally to display ferroelectricity. The most recent of these is the Dion-Jacobson (DJ) family, typified... -
Thermal expansion of hexa-halogenated benzenes: C6Cl6, C6Br6, C6I6.
The aim of the present proposal is to complete a systematic study on the effects of isotopic and chemical substitution on the thermal expansion and vibrational properties of... -
Equation of state and phase transitions of the cubic NTE material Cd(CN)2
Despite being the material showing the largest isotropic NTE, Cd(CN)2 is remarkably little studied, particularly compared to isostructural Zn(CN)2 and the canonical NTE material...
