Magnetic study of the new skyrmion-carrying material CoZnMn
Nanoscale magnetic skyrmions are swirl-like magnetisation entities that satisfy topological quantisation conditions. They can therefore not be easily unwound into another... -
Magnetic field controlled quantum criticality in La2-xSrxCuO4
The application of a magnetic field offers a unique way to control a quantum critical point in some systems. For underdoped high temperature cuprate superconductors (HTS),... -
Understanding the molecular origin of cononsolvency
The term cononsolvency has been used to describe a situation in which a polymer is less soluble in a mixture of two cosolvents than it is in either one of the pure solvents. If... -
Characterisation of Lithium-ion battery cathode material LiCoMnO4 as prepared...
LiCoMnO4 is a spinel material of great interest for possible applications in the next generation of lithium-ion batteries. LiCoMnO4 exhibits electrochemical activity at 5 volts,... -
Neutron Diffraction study of Highly Frustrated SrEr2O4
We propose to measure the neutron diffraction pattern of a single crystal sample of SrEr2O4, using the WISH diffractometer. As the magnetic Er ions in this compound are linked... -
impact of mutlivalent counterions on surfactant adsorption
We request NR beam time on SURF to study the impact of multivalent counterions on the surface adsorption of alkyloxyethylene sulfate surfactants and alkyloxyethylene sulphate /... -
Investigation of phosphatidylcholine and its interaction with 1,2 propandiol ...
The aim of the present study is to use neutron diffraction enhanced with isotopic substitution and subsequent computer simulations to determine the head group solvation of a...
