In-situ study of oxygen storage materials in the Zr-Ce-O system
Zirconia-ceria ceramics are promising materials within automotive exhaust catalysts, exploiting the Ce3+<->Ce4+ redox reactions to store oxygen. For a Zr:Ce ratio of 1:1... -
Pressure driven phase transitions in the magnetically frustrated layered mate...
Frustration occurs in materials where antiferromagnetic (spin up and spin down pairs) are incomparible with the underlying crystal morphology, for example where the connectivity... -
How perfume structure affects surface coadsorption with anionic surfactants
In a recent EPSRC / Unilever / Oxford CASE project we have used NR to explore and develop optimised delivery mechanism for active benefit agents such as perfumes. In particular... -
Structural determination of non-stoichiomentric phases Li2+yND for 0<y<1
In a series of in situ neutron diffraction measurements from deuterium up-take in Li3N, the present authors have identified a novel non-stoichiometric 'quasi-imide' of... -
High Pressure Structure of Carbonic Acid
Recent published studies have identified a stable solid form of carbonic acid at high pressure. This proposal is for beamtime to collect the data to solve its crystal structure. -
