Investigation of a spin-resonance in unconventional superconductor YFe2Ge2
In the layered iron-based superconductor YFe2Ge2, a high Sommerfeld ratio of order 100 mJ/mol K^2 and a T^3/2 temperature dependence of the electrical resistivity at low... -
Magnetic and structural dynamics in the multiple Coulomb phase CsNiCrF6
In materials with correlated disorder (i.e. not completely random nor completely ordered), new physics and functionalities can occur. Correlated disorder can be treated... -
Quantum critical dynamics in the presence of disorder
Quantum phase transitions are abrupt qualitative changes of a system's groundstate occurring only at exactly zero temperature. Such critical points - although never reachable... -
Phonon-liquid electron-crystal behaviour in copper-rich tetrahedrites
Tetrahedrites are minerals which consist largely of earth-abundant and environmentally-friendly elements (copper and sulfur), and are attracting much interest due to their... -
Investigating the superconducting and magnetic properties of two new supercon...
Recently, Eckert and co-authors synthesised osmium based two superconductors, NbOsSi and TaOsSi, and found that these compounds exhibit superconductivity below a transition... -
Quasielastic intensity distribution and dispersion of low-energy magnetic exc...
In a number of recent experiments on the pure CeB6 compound, we have revealed strong quasielastic inten-sity in the normal (paramagnetic) state with a rich momentum-space... -
Fractionalized excitations in the zigzag pseudospin-1/2 quantum chain compoun...
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... -
Investigating artificial multiferroic structures using polarised neutron refl...
Multiferroic systems have more than one functionality, i.e. ferromagnetism, ferroelectricity, ferroelasticity and ferrotoroidicity. In nature there are few materials that... -
Magnetic excitations in the quantum spin ice Yb2Ti2O7
We propose to carry out an inelastic neutron scattering experiment at LET to investigate the excitations in the quantum spin ice Yb2Ti2O7. In contrast to other single crystal... -

In a number of recent experiments on the pure CeB6 compound, we have revealed strong quasielastic inten-sity in the normal (paramagnetic) state with a rich momentum-space... -
Na-ion diffusion mechanisms in NaxFe1/2Mn1/2O2 cathode materials
NaxFe1/2Mn1/2O2 has been identified as a potential cathode material for Na-ion batteries since it has comparable electrochemical performance to commercially available Li-ion... -
The role of zero-point fluctuations in a quantum-disordered spin-dimer compound
Recently a great deal of theoretical and experimental interest has been directed at a class of magnetic materials which undergo phase transitions at zero temperature. These... -
Structure of Petroleum Asphaltenes in Solution
Asphaltenes are the heaviest end of crude oil and are responsible for a multitude of engineering challenges. They can precipitate from the oil, depositing, blocking pipelines... -
Field dependence of Magnetic Excitations in the Hyperkagome Spin Liquid Candi...
We are proposing to characterize the short range magnetic correlations and dynamics in a single crystal of Yb3Ga5O12, a geometrically frustrated spin liquid candidate. We have... -
Understanding Phospho-L-Serine (PS) role in the Organization of Cholesterol C...
Our goal is to understand the role of POPS, a lipid component only found in the inner leaflet of plasma membrane, in the organization of cholesterol in cell membranes. Our... -

Temperature dependence of spin dynamics near quantum criticality in an Ising ...
This proposal is part of our research programme to explore the interplay of thermal and quantum fluctuations near zero-temperature quantum phase transitions. Here we apply for a... -
Temperature dependence of the NO3-initiated oxidation of cerebroside/fatty ac...
We will add temperature control to our reaction chamber for simultaneous neutron reflectometry(NR) and infra-red reflection absorption spectroscopy (IRRAS). This new set-up will... -
Magnetic study of the new skyrmion-carrying material CoZnMn
Nanoscale magnetic skyrmions are swirl-like magnetisation entities that satisfy topological quantisation conditions. They can therefore not be easily unwound into another... -
Peptide resistance in asymmetric MRSA-mimetic vesicles
We have been investigating the influcence of the cationic staphylococcal lipid lysyl-phosphatidylglycerol (L-PG) on bacterial resistance to antimicrobial peptides (AMPs). Using...
