Order and disorder in sodium amide
Sodium amide has recently attracted interest as a catalyst for the decomposition of ammonia as a means of producing hydrogen. As such, its properties are of increasing relevance... -
Study of pore-confined CO2 depletion below the bulk triple point
Freezing of fluids confined at the nanoscale is of great importance for the understanding of their behaviour due to the confinement effects arising from the finite pore size and... -
Effect of alloying on the misfit of Ni-Ni3Al-Ni3V alloys
Ni-base superalloys have long been used in high temperature applications, including the high-demand environments of the high pressure turbines in jet engines. The remarkable... -
Compressible Liquids Part 2
Liquids are commonly known to be incompressible. However, a recently invented class of materials called Porous Liquids, which exhibit permanent porosity in the liquid phase, are... -
Alkali metal anions in solution Ion pairing and aggregation as a survival s...
Alkali metals are soluble in organic media when a macrocyclic complexing agent is used in order to drive the dissolution process by formation of complexed metal cations and... -
Investigation of new fluorinated and reductively defluorinated phases with Ru...
Fluoride Ion Batteries (FIB) are alternative energy storage systems which work based on the transport of fluoride ions between the electrochemically active electrode materials.... -
Probing nanophase segregation in aqueous solutions
In recent experiments we accidentally observed the onset of nanophase segregation in concentrated LiCl-water solutions by increasing dilution, in the deeply undercooled regime.... -
The structural role of carbonate groups in glass
We request GEM beamtime to study the structure of samples of sodium silicate glass with and without CO3 carbonate groups. The presence of CO3 carbonate groups in the glasses is... -
Solvation structure of propane/propene in [C4mim][NTf2] ionic liquid
Supported ionic liquid membranes offer potentially lower-energy alternatives to cryogenic distillation for the separation and isolation of light gas olefins (ethene and propene)... -
Investigation of nuclear and magnetic structures of new modifications of BaCo...
Barium cobaltites are interesting materials because of a broad range of properties (magnetic, catalytic, electronic). Such properties are tightly connected to the structure type... -
Adamantane in amorphous ice: A nanoprobe for detecting sintering, glass-trans...
Ice and carbon exist in vast quantities in our Universe. In fact, they often coexist, and form interfaces in highly diverse settings and environments. These include, for... -
Oxide Ion Disorder in Rhombohedral Bismuth Neodymium Oxide Electrolytes
Materials that exhibit high oxide ion conductivity are of interest with a view to their application in solid oxide fuel cells, gas sensors and gas separation membranes. A study... -
Methane hydrate formation in the presence of graphene oxide
In this proposal we wish to study in situ formation of methane hydrates in the presence of graphene oxide. The aim of this research is to enable us to understand how different... -
Single crystal study of a-RuCl3, a quantum magnet on a honeycomb lattice
a-RuCl3 is a honeycomb lattice system which is thought to be close to a spin liquid state. The layers are weakly coupled and therefore the system is susceptible to stacking... -
Spin ordering in strongly geometrically frustrated magnets YCa3(MO)3(BO3)4 (M...
Geometrically frustrated magnetism (GFM) occurs in systems where magnetic cations (spins) are located on a lattice with a triangular geometry and there are antiferromagnetic... -
Investigating the Mechanism of Cooperative Melting in Metal-Organic Frameworks
Zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) are formed from inorganic nodes connected by organic ligands, and share structural features with zeolites. They have recently been... -

Interaction of trehalose and a model peptide
We propose to perform a NDIS experiments at the SANDALS diffractometer at T = 300 K on X samples of N-Methylacetamide, NMA, and trehalose at low water content, in the glassy... -
Combined in situ PDF, NPD and conductivity study of BaD2
Barium hydride is a of interest due to its high hydride ion conductivity, which would make it suitable as an electrolyte materials in a variety of electrochemical devices and... -
Inelastic neutron scattering and muSR investigations on high magnetic orderin...
Ternary RScSi and RScGe compounds (R = Ce and Pr) crystallize in the well-known tetragonal, CeScSi-type structure. Both CeScSi and CeScGe order AFM below 26 and 43 K,...
