Investigation of phase diagrams of polysaccharides
This project concerns fundamental and strategically important research underlying the development of new drug delivery vehicles. We propose to sample phase diagram of... -
Spin Coherent Transport in Organic Spin-Valves
We have recently performed a `proof-of-principle' Low Energy Muon Spin Rotation experiment on an organic spin valve. In an extension to our muon measurements and an attempt to... -
Voltage induced actuation - a Kinetics study
This is one of a pair of linked proposals, one for SURF and one for INTER. The voltage response of poly(2-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA) weak polybase brushes... -
Studies of Muon-Beam-Induced currents in semi-imsulating GaAs
This proposal is a continuation of our recent proposal RB 610004 where this partcurrent measurements) was not completed due to the reduced beam intensity. Currents experiment... -
Structural study of BiNiO3 at high pressures and low temperatures
BiNiO3, synthesized at high pressure, has the unusual charge distribution Bi3+0.5Bi5+0.5Ni2+O3 with ordering of Bi3+ and Bi5+ charges on the A sites of a highly distorted... -
Polarized Neutron Reflectometry study of proximity effects in YBa2Cu3O7-d / L...
To continue with our study on the interaction between superconducting (SC) and ferromagnetic (FM) order parameters we propose to study, by means of Polarized Neutron... -
A high-pressure study of monovalent bifluorides
This proposal seeks PEARL beam time to conduct the first high-pressure neutron diffraction study of the monovalent azides XDF2, where X = Na, ND4, Cs and Tl. In so doing, we... -
Structure of beta-Mo2N in the normal and superconducting states; an in-situ r...
A recent experiment (RB820171) unexpectedly revealed that a sample of beta-Mo2N exhibited a number of extra reflections at 4 K; a temperature below the superconducting critical... -
MuSR study to investigate a small moment magnetic ordering in Ce(Os1-xIrx)2Al...
Our muSR study on Ce(Os1-xFex)2Al10 with x=0.4, which reveals long range magnetic ordering below 24K from the heat capacity, shows unexpected behaviour. The muSR spectra only... -
Neutron scattering and muSR studies of magnetic phenomena in YFe2Al10: case s...
In strongly correlated electron systems, the proximity to magnetic ordering has been of special interest. Magnetism in this class of systems is often suppressed by the Kondo... -
Spin crossover and low temperature spin dynamics in In2VO5
The one dimensional material In2VO5 contains frustrated zigzag chains of corner sharing V 4+ (S = 1/2) square based pyramids interspersed with sheets of edge sharing InO6... -
SANS study of self assembled structures formed from salicylate surfactant in ...
We wish to determine a structure we have observed in a dodecane/surfactant/water system. Initial experimentation has suggested the possibility of spontaneous formation of a... -
Neutron diffraction study on La0.4Sr0.4GaxTi1-xO3-x/2-δ materials with p...
The successful integration of high temperature electrochemical devices in the future energy economy based on renewable sources strongly depends on the development of new... -
Muon-spin rotation study of the in-plane magnetic penetration depth of REFe_(...
We propose a TF-muSR investigation of the superconducting properties of the REFe_(1-y)Ru_yAsO_{1-x}F_x compound (RE=La, Sm). In this system the substitution of Fe by the... -
A model system to study the important interactions of proteins from extreme e...
Organisms which live in the presence of large quantities of salt are known as halophilic (meaningsalt-loving). Halophilic proteins are of great interest due to their ability to... -

Multiscale time-resolving study of solid state crystallisation from the mesom...
We will exploit the unique capability of Nimrod in the study of the long standing issue of polymer crystallisation. We focus on isotactic polypropylene which has been quenched... -
In-situ study of structure-property relationships on proton conducting perovs...
Significant research has been given towards synthesis and characterisation of electrolyte materials with high proton conductivity for intermediate temperature range (200-600°C)... -
Enhanced oxygen hyperstoichiometry in Y doped La9.33+xGe6O26+3x/2
Apatite-type lanthanide silicates/germanates have been attracting considerable interest as a new class of oxide ion conductors. The presence of interstitial oxide ions is... -
The first in operando INS study of a catalytic reaction: CO oxidation over PdO
Inelastic neutron scattering has been used to study adsorbed species on catalysts for more than 30 years. All of this work has one feature in common: they are all ¿snapshots¿ of...
