pH Responsive Polymer Blend Surfaces
Polymers, end-functionalised with carboxylic acid (COOH) groups do not normally segregate to film surfaces due to the high surface energy of these functionalities. However, we... -

Dye...TiO2 Interfacial Structure of Working Electrodes in Dye-Sensitised Sola...
The transparent and low-cost nature of dye-sensitised solar cells (DSCs) affords them niche prospects for electricity-generating windows in buildings for energy-sustainable... -
Ion mediated surfactant adsorption on cellulose films
In recent work with Unilever we have been investigating the structure of gels formed by partially oxidised cellulose nanofibrils for use in sustainable personal care products.... -
Structure and activity of Membrane Proteins immobilised to solid supports.
Membrane Proteins (MPs) consist of about 1/3 of the proteome but the structural information available is very limited compared to that for soluble proteins. Despite this at... -
Reflectometry studies of the mechanism of formation of mesoporous silicate fi...
Surfactant-silica self-assembly processes have been extensively studied since the discovery of M41S mesoporous materials in 1992. Mesoporous silicate films can be grown from... -
Determination of interfacial dead layers and magnetic uniformity in half-meta...
Co-based Heusler alloys are predicted to be an ideal material for spintronics due to their high Curie temperature and potential in magnetic heterostructrue devices. We have... -
Enhanced polarisation in platinum films adjacent to half-metallic Co2FeAl
The half-metallic Heusler alloy Co2FeAl (CFA) is a promising candidate material for high-frequency spintronic devices. As many of these device structures involve bilayers of CFA... -
Iron Oxide Nanoparticle Interactions with Lipid Bilayers in a Magnetic Field
Iron oxide nanoparticles are one of the first nanomaterials to be approved for use in the body. However, research into particle binding and incorporation to, as well as... -
Depth profiling the composition of multilayer organic solar cell thin films
We propose to study thin-film blends of the polymer:fullerene system PTB7:PC70BM using neutron reflectivity (NR). This system currently exhibits the highest power conversion... -
Proving ground-state ordering in Artificial Spin-Ice systems formed by sub-10...
The main purpose of the experiment proposed here is to study the effects of thermalisation on Artificial Spin-Ice (ASI) systems formed by nanomagnets with sub-100 nm lateral... -

Polarised Neutron Reflectometry from Frustrated Nanomagnet Arrays
We propose to study off-specular polarised neutron reflectivity from an array of CoFeB nanostructures. Many groups use Permalloy to form these types of nanostructures, however,... -
Influence of minority-spin surface resonance on tunnelling anisotropic magnet...
We propose to study Fe based tunnelling anisotropic magnetoresistance (TAMR) structures. TAMR is a newly discovered effect potentially combining advantages of the anisotropic MR... -
Surface structure of monolayers formed by novel di- and tri-chain cationic li...
The aim of the present study is to the determine, using specular neutron reflection (SNR), the structure of layers formed by novel tri-chain cationic lipids in combination with... -
