Phonons from diffraction and normal mode analysis in HMT
With the overall aim of extending the information derivable in a neutron single crystal diffraction experiment beyond the static structure, we are proposing to perform a... -
Identification of the empirical forging methods and microstructural propertie...
In our previous experiment RB 1810171 we analysed a group of three Japanese swords from an important private collection. Among the samples included in the proposal, we found... -

Hydration of Guanosine, G-quartets and G-quadruplex
Guanosine (GMP) is the ideal brick for controlled self-assembly of biocompatible materials, as it has the special ability to self-associate in water to form G-quartets (G4), and... -
Understanding the molecular origin of cononsolvency
The term cononsolvency has been used to describe a situation in which a polymer is less soluble in a mixture of two cosolvents than it is in either one of the pure solvents. If... -
Wide-angle neutron scattering study of the unusual nematic-nematic transition...
An intriguing unknown variant of the nematic liquid-crystal phase (Nx) has been discovered first in a class of main-chain polymers, and later in LC dimers connected via an... -
Superstructures in high-Tc La(2-x)Sr(x)CuO(4+y)
Previous powder diffraction studies of the superoxygenated La(2-x)Sr(x)CuO(4+y) (LSCO+O) system have not provided a model describing the superstructures of the intercalated... -
Comparison of the Compression Behaviour of BaSnO3 and Ba0.575Sr0.425SnO3
We propose to study the effect of pressure on the structure of the tetragonal Ba0.575Sr0.425SnO3, The behaviour will be compared to the compression of the cubic BaSnO3 (parent... -
Neutron diffuse scattering from multiferroic single crystal BiFeO3
BiFeO3 is a canonical multiferroic material. We know that local (nanoscale) order is crucial in explaining the behaviour of conventional ferroelectrics, and reciprocal space... -
Total scattering of Zintl phase deuterides CaSiD1.3, BaSiD1.9 and SrGeD1.3
The Zintl phase hydrides CaSiH1.3, BaSiH1.9 and SrGeH1.3 exhibit hydride anions in alkaline earth metal voids as well as hydrogen bound to the polyanions formed by silicon /... -
Growth of Nanostructured Ceria in Choline Chloride:Urea-Water Deep Eutectic S...
In our recent work we have studied formation of nanostructured cerium oxides from the choline chloride:urea deep eutectic solvent (DES). We found that the nanostructure of the... -
Catalysis in Hydrogen-Bond Rich Porous Organic Materials
Hydrogen bonding (H-bonding) interactions are essential in biological and chemical processes, particularly in reactions catalysed by enzymes and small-molecule catalysts.... -
Magnetic ordering in the layered oxide arsenides Sr2CrO2Fe2As2 and Sr2CrO2Co2As2
This proposal is to probe the structure and magnetic ordering in Sr2CrO2Fe2As2 and Sr2CrO2Co2As2, in order to complete a description of trends in the Cr sublattice magnetic... -
Effect of high temperatures on the adsorption of benzotriazole onto copper/co...
Benzotriazole (BTAH) is a very effective corrosion inhibitor for copper and its alloys in both water and in oils. BTAH is introduced as a corrosion inhibitor in oil based... -
In-situ neutron diffraction investigation of Ni-based batteries
Ni-based secondary batteries are currently used in many applications, however, the structural changes at the electrodes are not fully characterized and neutron diffraction is a... -
Pressure-induced proton migration in an energetic co-crystal
The results of these studies will provide valuable information on the effects of extreme conditions on the structures of an energetic salt and co-crystal formed between... -
In Situ High Pressure NMR study of the Direct Synthesis of NaAlH4
NaAlH4 has been a model system for metal hydride hydrogen storage materials since the reaction was identified to be reversible. The decomposition pathway has been described by a... -
Neutron Total Scattering of Crystalline Materials in the Gigapascal Regime
Over the past few years, extensive developments have been made in the use of neutron diffraction for structural studies of liquids and amorphous materials at high pressure.... -
Anisotropic Displacement Parameters and Diffuse Scattering in Graphite
The accurate description of van-der-Waals forces within DFT is currently one of the most active areas of research in computational physics and chemistry. In the case of soft... -
Does the viscosity of the sub-phase effect the oxidation kinetics of surface ...
Atmospheric climate change is strongly influenced by clouds and the oxidative processing of pollutants in clouds affects droplet size and reflectivity of the planet. Clouds...
