Effects of Local Displacements on Phase Transitions in Sr- and Ca-substituted...
Ferroelectric BaTiO3 (BT) constitutes a base system for many practical applications ranging from classical capacitors to tunable dielectrics. A dielectric response in BT is... -
Order-Disorder Transitions in Layered Tellurides
We have prepared a new series of layered tellurides Cr2-xInxGe2Te6, containing 2D ordered arrays of (Cr,In) cations and (Ge-Ge) pairs. Recent neutron measurements reveal indium... -
Phase Transitions and Orbital Ordering in SrRu1-xCuxO3.
This proposal seeks to establish the importance of orbital ordering on the stability of the tetragonal phase in Cu doped SrRiuO3. Orbital ordering is believed to be a... -
The role of Disorder in Phase Transitions in some manganese Perovskites
The aim of this work is to understand the origin of the difference in the behaviour between the two doped manganites Sr0.65Pr0.35MnO3 and Sr0.70Ce0.30MnO3. The hypothesis we... -
Phase Transitions in Pb/Y di-substituted Bi2O3 Based Electrolytes
There has been recent interest in the use of cermets based on stabilised delta bismuth oxide based solid electrolytes as cathodes in solid oxide fuel cells. It has been shown... -
Low-Temperature Structural Phase Transitions in GeV4S8
The defect thiospinel, GeV4S8 adopts a cubic structure at room temperature (space group F-43m). We have identified a new monoclinic phase of this material at 2K, which may be... -
Structure and Phase Transitions of XNbOP2O7, with X = ND4 and Rb
In this proposal we request 3 days of beam time on HRPD to study the structure and phase transitions of XNbOP2O7 (X = Rb and ND4). These materials have been shown to undergo...
