Structural and magnetic neutron diffraction study of a novel frustrated syste...
Every new triangular lattice (TL) antiferromagnet attracts considerable attention since they usually display rich physics due to the inherent frustration and degenerate ground... -
In-situ hydrogen decomposition studies of ammonia borane and the diammoniate ...
Ammonia borane (AB) is one of the most promising hydrogen storage materials. We have extensively studied the low temperature behaviour of this material This proposal asks for 3... -
Optimising the Haupt effect: the route toward application
The implementation of quick temperature cycles over the temperature range 2-40K in g-picoline has lead to the first observation of a redistribution of scattered intensity in... -
Low-energy excitations of the quantum critical S=1/2 ladder material Ba2CuTeO6
Ba2CuTeO6 is a newly discovered S=1/2 spin ladder material thought to be uniquely close to the theoretically predicted quantum critical point of the coupled two-leg spin ladder... -
Magnetic excitations in multiferroic hybrid perovskites
The novel electric, magnetic and multiferroic properties of the metal formate perovskites have resulted in substantial scientific attention over the past fifteen years. Their... -
Powder diffraction determination of the magnetic structure of Ba2LiOsO6
We aim to investigate the antiferromagnetic ground state of Ba2LiOsO6 using neutron powder diffraction, determining both the magnetic ordering propagation vector, and the... -
Cascading magnetization plateaus in monoclinic CoV2O6
The aim of this proposal is to understand the origin of the cascade of magnetisation plateaus in monoclinic CoV2O6. While 1/3 plateaus have been reported in the literature,... -
Spin transitions in the hexagonal (6H) perovskites Ba3NdRu2O9
The hexagonal perovskites make up a large and technologically useful class of oxide materials, with applications as diverse as dielectric resonators for mobile phones and fuel... -
First experiment with a pulsed field magnet at ISIS or how to break the 15T b...
We propose to use a pulsed magnet system tried and tested at several neutron and synchrotron facilities in conjunction with the new high flux diffractometer WISH to perform the... -
Magnetic excitations and quasi-1D to 3D crossover in the metal-organic framew...
The metal-organic framework (MOF) guanadinium copper formate is of interest in the quest towards rational design of multiferroic MOFs. It exhibits cooperative Jahn-Teller... -
Transverse field evolution of magnetic excitation spectrum in Nb1-yFe2+y
Our previous neutron scattering on C14 Laves phase compounds Nb1-yFe2+y revealed that a spin-density-wave (SDW) is masking an underlying ferromagnetic (FM) quantum critical... -
Spin waves in ferromagnetic YbNiSn
YbNiSn is a Yb analogue of ferromagnetic superconductors URhGe and UCoGe. All materials share the same crystal structure, have similar Curie temperatures and a similar... -
Structure and cation ordering in A2Sn3Q7-type phases (A=In, Cr; Q= S, Se)
We wish to exploit the contrast afforded by neutrons to study the ordering of In and Sn cations in indium tin chalcogenides. Cation ordering has been inferred from spectroscopic...
