The magnetic properties of a Terbium single ion magnetic system will be studied using implanted muons. The system is based on a polyoxometallate ion that provides good isolation...

This proposal describes a muSR experiment on a garnet-type Li ionic conductor, Li6.75La3Zr1.75Nb0.25O12 under electric field (E) in order to study a diffusive behavior under a...

We propose to investigate the interfacial adsorption of a series of water-soluble single chain PC surfactants using neutron reflection, focusing on assessing the effects of...

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...

Of all multiferroic materials, BiFeO3 stands out particularly with its both magnetic and ferroelectric transition temperatures above room temperatures, more interestingly having...

Two dimensional (2D) metal chalcogenides are constituted by covalently/ionically bonded atomic layers that are held together via interlayer van der Waals (vdW) forces, and...

The solution of the Anderson lattice model (ALM) leads to two renormalized bands near EF with an energy gap due to hybridization between the 4f- and conduction electrons. The...

We propose to measure the neutron diffraction pattern of a single crystal sample of SrEr2O4, using the WISH diffractometer. As the magnetic Er ions in this compound are linked...

We propose the first muSR measurements on T-structured La0.9+x/2Eu0.9+x/2Sr0.2-xCuO4 to investigate the effect of hole-doping and the oxygen annealing on the magnetism. Since...

TiCl4 forms a molecular structure containing isolated tetrahedral molecules on cooling to 248 K. The freezing pressure of TiCl4 is 0.05 GPa (500 atm). Single crystal growth...

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...

One-dimensional (1D) S = 1/2 spin chains are a subject of long-standing interest, because conventional long-range ordering can be prevented and novel Luttinger-liquid phase may...

Iridium-containing oxide magnets are interesting because the different interactions controlling their magnetic properties have similar energies associated with them. This leads...

We request three days of beam-time on POLARIS to investigate the influence of thermally-induced twinning on the thermal expansion behaviour of polycrystalline calcite....

This proposal is to observe single-spin diffusive motion on a two-dimensional (2D) percolating network having a fractal geometry. The random walker¿s travel times on a...

We propose to obtain 3 days of beam time on SXD equipped with its new top-loading CCR to analyze CaCrFe3As3 single crystals at different temperatures 10 K, 100 K and 300 K (the...

Perovskite zirconates have been suggested as potential next generation thermal barrier materials. SrZrO3 is particularly promising as it has an extremely low thermal...
