Frustration occurs in materials where antiferromagnetic (spin up and spin down pairs) are incomparible with the underlying crystal morphology, for example where the connectivity... -
Free Floating Higher Plant Membrane Mimetics
We have engaged in a long term effort to build accurate bio-mimetic systems for complex structural biology studies. Recently, we have found that thiolalkylamidealcohol... -
Methane hydrate formation in the presence of clay minerals
We will study the formation of methane hydrates in situ in the presence of swelling clays. The aim is to understand and control heterogeneous hydrate nucleation at this... -
Unravelling the origin of high-temperature magnetic bistability in dysprosoce...
In the last 25 years the highest blocking temperature TB achieved for the best performing molecular nanomagnets has only reached few K. The situation has recently changed... -
Ordering phenomena and magnetic phase transitions in Mn2TeO6
Our aim is to study with high resolution neutron powder diffraction the two orthorhombic phases of Mn2TeO6 at RT, so as to understand the origin of the observed structural... -
Effect of serum on the structure of gene delivery vehicles
To date complexes prepared from vesicles composed of dichain, cationic lipids (L) with negatively charged DNA (D), known as LD complexes have emerged as one of the major... -
