Investigation of new phase, MnBi2, by in situ high-pressure neutron diffraction
Permanent magnets are essential for renewable energy technologies such as electric cars and wind turbines. Global demand for magnets is increasing, however, the elements used to... -
High resolution measurement of mode Grueneisen parameters in the negative the...
ZrW2O8 is the classic example of a material exhibiting negative thermal expansion (NTE), i.e. lattice shrinkage on warming. The origin of this behaviour has been controversial... -
Detailed characterisation of metastable phase fractions in ZrW2O8
Cubic alpha-ZrW2O8 is the classic example of a material exhibiting the unusual property of negative thermal expansion (NTE). Despite this effect having been discovered 20 years... -

Local ordering in the pressure-induced order-disorder transition in ammonium ...
Ammonium bromide undergoes a pressure-induced order-disorder transition, where the disordered (plastic) phase is thought to consist of a random distribution of ammonium cations...
