Structural determination of non-stoichiomentric phases Li2+yND for 0<y<1
In a series of in situ neutron diffraction measurements from deuterium up-take in Li3N, the present authors have identified a novel non-stoichiometric 'quasi-imide' of... -
Structures of metastable water ice XVII with different guests molecules
Very recently, we have studied the crystalline structure of the C0-phase H2-filled ice (recovered at room pressure and low temperature) and ice XVII, a new form of ice... -
In-situ studies of alkaline earth nitride deuterides
Heavy alkaline earth nitride hydrides (AE2NH, with AE = Ca and Ba) are of interest due to their potential suitability as electrolyte materials in a variety of electrochemical... -
Gas-phase oxidation of insoluble monolayer at air-water interface with no equ...
The Earth¿s climate is strongly influenced by clouds. The oxidative processing of pollutants in clouds affects cloud droplet size and optical properties, important climatic... -

In situ studies of mixed-phase oxygen transport membranes
The oxygen transport membrane is a system being developed by St Andrews in conjunction with industry, which at high temperatures will allow the selective migration of oxygen... -
In-situ high resolution neutron diffraction studies of cemented carbides
Cemented carbides are composite materials manufactured via powder metallurgy. The excellent wear resistance, high hardness, and high toughness make them widely used materials in... -
The high temperature high pressure behaviour of ammonia hydrates
Ammonia hydrates are important constituents of the outer solar system. In recent x-ray studies we have found evidence for a solid solution between ice and ammonia at high... -
Time Resolved Studies on Inorganic Film Formation at the Air-Solution Interface
In a recent SURF experiment on the formation of silica films templated with cat-anionic/polymer complexes we found that the film growth and evolution occurs on a faster time... -

Proton diffusion in lithium imide: a quasi-elastic neutron scattering study
Li_2NH has been recently considered for H_2 storage applications. However, its low-T crystal structure is still controversial, with at least 6 options compatible with the... -
Temperature driven spin incoherence and criticality in the Luttinger liquid p...
We propose an experiment on the low energy spectrometer LET to study temperature effects on the Luttinger liquid (LL) phase on the spin ladder geometry. The spin ladder material... -
Kinetics of the ordering transition in ice Ih; crystal structure and thermal ...
Below 80 K ordinary water ice (ice Ih) undergoes a phase transition in which the randomly oriented molecules in the crystal adopt an ordered orientation. This ordered form of...
