Thermal expansion of recovered high-pressure ice polymorphs
The ambient-pressure phase of ice is a well-known example of a molecular solid that exhibits negative volume thermal expansion below 60 K. In a recent study carried out on HRPD... -
Melanins vibrational behaviour as a function of temperature and hydration to...
Electroceuticals is the attempt to speak the electrical language of the nerves to achieve higher treatment effect. Thus, the search is on to develop devices to enhance... -
Evolutionary developments in the use of INS to investigate heterogeneous cata...
As part of an EPSRC grant coupled with an ISIS Programme Access award, the research team have been developing the methodology of using inelastic neutron scattering (INS) to... -
First insights into the hydration of the nootropic drug piracetam by neutron ...
The proposal seeks to investigate the structure and hydration of the nootropic drug piracetam in aqueous solutions by neutron scattering on the SANDALS instrument, with... -
Structures and thermal expansivity of recovered phases of urea II & III
Urea is a prototypical hydrogen-bonded small molecule that has stimulated considerable fundamental research into its structure, elastic properties and polymorphism. Amongst the... -
Non-stoichiometry in (Na1/2Bi1/2)TiO3: from a Pb-free piezoelectric to fast i...
4 days are requested on HRPD to collect Neutron Diffraction (ND) on a carefully designed series of (Na1/2Bi1/2)TiO3-based perovskites (NBT) that exhibit a switch in electrical... -
Structural Disorder in the Quantum Spin Liquid Candidate YbMgGaO4
Quantum spin liquids are novel magnetic states in which quantum entanglement suppresses conventional magnetic order. Understanding the effects that stabilise such states is an... -
Coupling of chains in a new, highly tuneable, isostructural series of model q...
Here we propose measurements on a unique, newly synthesized series of coordination polymers based on chains of Cu2+ ions. These have been designed with the intention of... -
In situ diffraction studies of cathode materials for Li ion batteries
Li-ion batteries are interesting because they offer high power and, as a consequence, they are preferred to aqueous-based batteries for traction applications e.g. hybrid... -
Probing of hydride phase formation of Pd nanoclusters embedded in the NH2-UiO...
With this proposal, we would like to investigate a material that could be used as a catalyst for hydrogenation reactions. A catalyst acts to increase the rate of a reaction by... -
The search and optimisation of Delta0 resonances in TIPS-Pentacene in solution
To the best of our knowledge, there is no previous work on using muons to measure photo-excited states in organic semiconductors or related materials. Our photo-excitation ideas... -
Superstructures in insulating and metallic lanthanum-doped sodium cobaltate
The thermoelectric properties of NaxCoO2 can be substantially improved by replacing Na ions by cations of higher valence. Our neutron diffraction studies on SXD for doping with... -
INS study on the effect of pressure on the soft transverse optical phonon mod...
Recent measurements have indicated that the application of hydrostatic pressure to SrTiO3 can be used to tune the system away from a ferroelectric quantum critical point. This... -
In situ studies on hydride diffusion and exchange in alkaline earth hydrides ...
Thermogravimetric analysis on alkaline earth hydrides in St Andrews has revealed a remarkably fast exchange of deuterium and hydrogen by alkaline earth hydrides at relatively... -
Investigation of shake-down effects on residual stress redistribution in ship...
The fact that residual stresses are redistributed or relaxed during operations shows the importance of understanding residual stress after a particular period. Elastic shakedown... -
The phase stability of alpha-glycine at high pressure
Though the beta and gamma forms of the simplest amino acid, glycine, yield a variety of different phases on application of pressure, Raman data suggest that the most common... -
The Power of Neutron Reflectivity for Batteries
Catastrophic failures of lithium batteries is a major safety concern, however our understanding and control over the mechanisms of these failures is still lacking. Lithium is...
