Excitations, BEC, and partially ordered states of liquid 4He in disorder
We propose measurements of the elementary phonon-roton (p-r) excitations of liquid 4He confined in porous MCM-41 (45 Å pore diameter) at wave vectors Q ¿ beyond the roton¿, 2.4... -
Amide monolayers at the polymer melt air interface
This proposal seeks to identify and characterise the adsorption of primary linear amides that adsorb to the surface from the bulk of a polymer melt. These layers are... -
Probing the interfacial wetting of superhydrophobic, lithographically pattern...
Phenomena surrounding the wetting of natural or artificial topographically patterned surfaces are found systems associated with the diverse fields of chemical engineering,... -
Magnetic structures of antiferromagnetic heavy fermion CeAuAl3 and CeCuAl3 co...
CeAuAl3 and CeCuAl3 compounds crystallize in the tetragonal I4mm, BaNiSn3-type and display interesting bulk properties. Here we propose to investigate the magnetic structures of... -
Insulator to metal transition in TiOCl at high pressures
We propose to study the high temperature structure of TiOCl where a pressure induced metal to insulator transition has been reported recently by Kuntscher et al.Due to our...
