Structural Changes through the Semiconductor to Metal Transition in Cu2ZnGeSe4
We wish to collect powder neutron diffraction data as a function of temperature to investigate structural changes through a phase transition in the parent thermoelectric phase... -
Apatite-type Oxides for Energy Applications: Role of Lattice Dynamics
Lanthanum-containing germanate apatites are materials with potential applications as electrolytes in solid oxide fuel cells. The conductivity of these materials is known to... -
In-situ Formation of Fast Lithium Conducting garnets via low temperature sol-...
Increasing global population, global warming and depletion of fossil fuels have resulted in a growing need for better energy storage. Lithium-ion batteries are promising devices... -
Towards the development of carbonitrides as novel two-stage regenerable reage...
We are examining a number of cobalt-molybdenum carbonitrides as possible catalysts for reactions that produce nitrogen-containing organic molecules. There is good evidence that... -
The elusive ¿cubic¿ phase of BiFeO3 and related materials
We wish to probe the suggested existence of a high-temperature cubic perovskite phase in the multiferroic material BiFe0.7Mn0.3O3. The parent phase of this material, BiFeO3, was...
