Spinon Confinement and Longitudinal Interchain modes in Yb2Pt2Pb
The f-electron metal Yb2Pt2Pb is best thought of as a one dimensional (1D) quantum spin chain system, despite the fact that the magnetic moments are large and anisotropic with... -
The role of defects in the pressure-induced octahedral tilting in Prussian bl...
We propose a high-pressure study of two Prussian blue analogues, Mn[Co(CN)6]0.67 and MnPt(CN)6. Our high-pressure XRD study shows a phase transition from cubic to rhombohedral... -
Absolute normalisation of spectra in DINS experiments:exploring the route to ...
The aim of this proposal is to investigate in the methodology of Deep Inelastic Neutron Scattering (DINS) data analysis, with especial emphasis in the absolute normalisation of... -
Structural Observation of the Self-Assembly Kinetics of Cyclic Peptide Nanotubes
Cyclic peptides with alternating side chain stereochemistry are capable of self-assembling into long nanotubes. The conjugation of polymers to these peptides renders the... -
Towards the Calibration of Chemical Pressure
The application of hydrostatic pressure allows the precise tuning of atomic separations, which control electronic structure and virtually all the interatomic interactions that... -
Encapsulation in Mixed Cat-anionic Surfactant Polymer Films
This proposal continues our investigations into polyelectrolyte-surfactant films at the air-solution interface. Using mixtures of cationic and anionic surfactants (CTAB/SDS) we... -
Mapping the evolution of strains/stresses across the interface between dissim...
The research is to study the fundamental issues and the key factors in controlling the interfacial bonding of dissimilar metallic alloys made by spraying deposition; and the... -
Understanding the spin-Peierls Transition in KTCNQ and derivatives
Motivated by work showing that magnetic coupling between TCNQ anions in potassium TCNQ (KTCNQ) can be changed simply by changing the aromatic substituents, we seek to qunatify... -

Non-Fullerene Based Acceptors for Organic Solar Cells
Organic Solar Cells (OSCs) have attracted substantial commercial and scientific interest as they provide a pathway to realizing a renewable energy source that is portable... -
GISANS from Standard Samples
It is necessary to commission 'standard' GISANS samples to ensure that users can validate their measurements on Sans2d. This was put in as a full proposal at the last round and... -
Study of Structural Transitions in Tellurite Glasses by Insitu High Pressure ...
Tellurite glasses have an interesting structural feature that Te ions have two coordinations of 3 and 4 with oxygen in the glass network. TeO2 is a conditional glass former and... -
Probing the thickness of the polymer adsorbed layer in HEUR stabilized oil in...
Oils are commonly used in personal care industry as emollients. Owing to their undesirable feel they are formulated in oil in water emulsions form. Emulsions contains... -
Continuation of the low-frequency fluctuations muSR study in Mn-doped La1-yYy...
The aim of the experiment is to study, in low magnetic fields, the very slow spin fluctuation (MHz range) present in the normal phase of La0.8Y0.2LaFe1-xMnxAsO0.89F0.11... -
The PVT equation of state of D2O ice III / IX
The high-pressure form of solid water, ice III, is the equilibrium phase in contact with liquid water at pressures from about 2.0 - 3.5 kbar. Consequently, its properties are... -
Investigating the magnetic structure of the solid solution PrCr(1-x)MnxO3
Rare-earth (A= La, Ce, Nd, Pr) orthochromites (A CrO3) and orthomanganites (A MnO3) are of interest due to the number of unusual physical properties they possess, displaying... -
Self-assembly of methyl ester sulfonate(MES) and sulfobetaine surfactant mixt...
The MES is representative of a promising group of anionic surfactants which have the potential for improved performance and biocompatibility / biosustainability, and their... -
Understanding Structural Changes in Amorphous Solid Water (ASW) on Heating
This experiment will establish the structural changes that occur in Amorphous Solid Water (ASW) prior to the process of pore collapse or crystallisation. We will study the... -
Quenched salt hydrates new ways of probing water clusters.
Very rapid quenching of liquids to form a glass, from which crystalline phases are subsequently obtained by devitrification, is a powerful technique for obtaining novel... -
Neutron reflectivity studies on bulk heterojunction (BHJ) thin films
Polymer solar cells (PSCs) open up new perspectives in the solar cell market. The morphology of the active layer of PSCs plays a crucial role on the corresponding devices...
