Cross coupling between ferroelectricity and antiferromagnetism in the multife...
We propose to investigate the interplay of magnetic and structural properties in the multiferroic PbFe1/2Nb1/2O3 (PFN). PFN is the magnetic analogue of the archetypal lead based... -
High-pressure studies of insensitive explosives: Nitroguanidine (NQ) and N-gu...
The aims of this proposal are to explore the high-pressure, high-temperature behaviour of two insensitive energetic materials - Nitroguanidine (NQ) and N-guanylurea-dinitramide... -
Structure of hot dense liquid carbon dioxide
We propose to study the structure of liquid CO2 by neutron diffraction under high pressure and high temperatures to 6 GPa / 800 K. Carbon dioxide belongs to the most fundamental... -
A high pressure study of the novel hybrid improper ferroelectric HgMn7O12
We have recently discovered how a novel type of hybrid improper ferroelectricity can arise in the perovskite HgMn3Mn412. This ferroelectricity is driven by a highly unusual... -

Network compression and pressure-induced amorphisation in Zn(CN)2
Zn(CN)2 is an important material because it shows isotropic NTE over a large temperature range and to an extent more than double that of ZrW2O8. This unusual behaviour... -
Investigation into the “1/8 anomaly” in superconducting cuprates: La2-xBaxCuO...
The superconducting material La2-xBaxCuO4 (LBCO) exhibits an anomalous dip in Tc at the x = 0.125 composition at low temperature (>30 K). This is at odds with other... -
PT-phase diagram of ammonium bromide
Ammonium bromide is a fundamental ionic solid that finds practical use, industrially, as a highly-effective flame retardant and also as an intermediary source of bromide in...
