Formation and ammonia decomposition behaviour of lithium nitride hydride
Ammonia is seen as a key part of the transition to a sustainable energy economy, but needs decomposition catalysts to release its stored hydrogen. Lithium nitride-hydride... -
Simltaneous dielectric spectroscopy and neutron diffraction
We have constructed a novel microwave frequency resonator that can sit within the GEM and POLARIS diffractometers and will allow us to simultaneously collect diffraction and... -
Low temperature phases of WO3 a reinvestigation
WO3 is an important technological material with wide usage in gas-sensing devices but its low temperature phases are still mysterious. There are conflicting reports in the... -
How does a catalyst promoter affect the degree of hydrogen retention of iron-...
We have recently used INS to determine how a hydrogen pre-treatment stage of an iron based Fischer-Tropsch catalyst may modify catalytic performance. That work established how... -
Sensing SO2 in Robust Porous MOF Materials via Simultaneous Microwave Dielect...
We seek to develop new MOFs for sensing and removal of toxic gases (e.g., SO2) and request 4 days on POLARIS to study the structural binding details and dielectric data... -
The Active Site in Iron Molybdate Catalysts for Selective Methanol Oxidation
Formaldehyde is an industrially important chemical (world production 32 million tonnes in 2006) currently made from methanol using an iron molybdate catalyst. Reaction occurs at... -
In-situ Thermoelectric Measurements of Copper Iron Sulphides
Thermoelectric devices are capable of converting thermal energy directly into electrical energy. Large-scale applications of the technology requires materials that are composed... -
Investigation of ambient temperature polarity and magnetism in the ternary so...
Pb-based materials such as PbZrxTi1-xO3 (PZT) are widely used as transducers, actuators and sensors in a range of modern technologies due to their excellent piezoelectric and... -
The search for long range exchange interactions in the S=1 square lattice ant...
Exchange interactions in insulators can be understood in terms of the Andersen exchange picture in which the Hamiltonian has two contributions: (i) a kinetic term characterized... -
Study of the interfacial self-assembly of peptide/polymer membranes by neutro...
The interfacial self-assembly between large (polymer) and small (peptide) molecules of opposite charge results in the formation of highly organized membranes. Furhter... -
