Location of Ferromagnetism in Palladium Bionanoparticles using a Novel In Sit...
We propose to develop and carry out a novel in situ SR/electrochemical technique to identify the mechanism underlying ferromagnetism in palladium bionanoparticles. We... -
A µSR study of unconventional spin fluctuation mediated superconductivity in ...
One of us has recently found experimental evidence for unconventional superconductivity in a newly synthesized three-dimensional nearly antiferromagnetic metal, LaAg1−xMnx... -
Understanding the spin-Peierls Transition in KTCNQ and derivatives
Motivated by work showing that magnetic coupling between TCNQ anions in potassium TCNQ (KTCNQ) can be changed simply by changing the aromatic substituents, we seek to qunatify... -
Frustration, quantum spin ices and quantum diffusion
This proposal aims to characterise the spin dynamics of three Pr-based pyrochlores that may be realisations of quantum spin ice materials. The lower moment and larger wave... -
Spin Rotation Experiments at a Pulsed Muon Source using Broadband RF Pulses
In this proposal we wish to explore how the RF-uSR technique might be developed for measurements akin to FT-NMR. Our work will focus on the broadband excitation of paramagnetic... -
Search for Antiferromagnetic order in ZrMn2
Today, about seventy years after Laves, there exists a fairly good knowledge about the basic structural principles of Laves phases but many questions still remain. AMn-type... -
muSR in the presence of significant spin-orbit coupling
The great majority of known muonium defect centres and muonium substituted organic radicals have essentially spin-only magnetism, with few exhibiting any noticeable departure... -

Muonium in alpha-boron
Previous muon experiments have identified a muonium state in the commonly occuring, but complex, beta rhombohedral form of elemental boron. To complement recent theoretical work... -
Investigation of carrier transport in the organic semiconductor 8-hydroxy-qui...
Using the Emu spectrometer at ISIS we have recently studied charge carrier transport in the technologically important molecule 8-hydroxy-quinoline aluminium, by probing the... -
Auger recombination in low temperature silicon measured by photo-MuSR technique
We measure electron-hole recombination rate in low-temperature pure silicon using the photo-MuSR technique. The previous works have measured the recombination rate down to -30... -
Investigation of spin-glass behaviour in the cubic compound PrRhSn3 using muSR
Recently we have investigated the cubic compound PrRhSn3 using the dc and ac susceptibilities and the heat capacity. We found an evidence for the cluster-glass behavior with a... -
Short-range magnetic correlations in Er(Ni,Cu)Al
The intermetallic alloys RNiAl and RCuAl have been of high interest for several years. They crystallize in the hexagonal structure (ZrNiAl-type) and form various and complicated... -
End-Game: Cornering Solvent Effects on H-Addition in Green Tea Anti-Oxidants
Our ongoing project to characterise radical scavenging by the green tea anti-oxidant EGCG and its D-ring analogue, (3,4,5-(OH)3-Bz) is near-complete. ALC-MuSR experiments on the... -
Auger recombination in low temperature silicon measured by photo-MuSR technique
We measure electron-hole recombination rate in low-temperature pure silicon using the photo-MuSR technique. The previous works have measured the recombination rate down to -30... -
Isolating exchange pathways in novel molecular magnets
Experimentally exploring the fascinating physics of one- and two-dimensional magnetism continues to rely on the synthesis of novel, model systems with highly anisotropic... -
Hydrogen impurity in solar cell materials CIGS and CZTS
In this proposal we intend to complete the characterization of the hydrogen impurity in solar cell materials Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) and Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS), by using the positive... -
Relaxation plateau in the breathing pyrochlore antiferromagnet LiIn0.05Ga0.95...
In physics, frustration describes a situation where a system is unable to satisfy all of its internal interactions because of the geometry of its atomic structure. The most... -
Utilising Quadrupolar Level Crossing Resonance to Gain Important Information ...
There is much debate about muon stopping sites within materials and in many cases knowing where the muon stops is crucial to understanding the physical properties of different... -
Study of the dependence of electron spin relaxation on molecule length in acenes
We wish to measure the ALCs of a series of polyacene molecules made of a different number of rings. We would like to identify the dependence of the electron spin relaxation rate...
