Simultaneous INS and Raman spectra of centropolyindanes.
The family of centropolyindanes are created by edge-wise fusing of the cyclopentane ring of several indane units (D. Kuck, Chemical Reviews 2006, 106, 4885-4925).... -
Investigating the response of lipid bilayers to physically structured substrates
The functionality of biological membranes is closely tied to their structural behavior. To understand this behavior we propose to study the conformality of artificial lipid... -
Probing membrane localisation of molecular rotors (SANS)
A number of important biological processes, such as intracellular transport and signal transduction depend on the viscosity and the distribution of microdomains in cells. We... -
Understanding the structural change of caseinate under mild heat and shear
Producing meat analogue instead of real meat is an effective way to reduce carbon emission and improve animal welfare. Calcium caseinate is a prominent candidate for making a... -
Investigation of magnetic defects in exfoliated graphite
