Intrinsic defect structures in zinc oxide
Zinc oxide is an important semiconductor material used in a wide range of industrial applications, many of which require both n-type and p-type components. It can easily be... -
Atomic resolution holographic study of polycrystalline yttrium hydride
It is commonly accepted that the recording of holograms with atomic resolution requires singlecrystalline samples. Closer analysis, however, shows that the reduced information... -
Single-Crystal Neutron Diffraction Study on [U(C5Me5)2(H)(mu¿H)]2
To our knowledge, the length of the U¿H single bond has never been accurately measured, at least not in a molecular compound by single-crystal neutron diffraction. We currently... -
Examining the properties of water channel in an organic matrix.
The objectives are to study the interaction of water molecules held in a channel in an organic matrix. We have structurally characterised a water tetramethylpiperididine complex... -
Spin waves in as-grown PLCCO-- How doping without annealing affects the spin ...
We propose to study the spin wave excitations of nonsuperconducting single crystal Pr0.88LaCe0.12CuO4 (PLCCO). Previous experiments on superconducting PLCCO have shown that spin... -
Oxide ion defects distribution and conduction pathways in apatite-type silicates
Apatites are functional materials with important potential applications as solid electrolytes, and also as biomaterials, ceramics for nuclear waste immobilisation, and... -
Diffuse scattering from doped zinc oxide
Zinc oxide is an important wide band gap semiconductor material used in a diverse range of industrial applications, many of which require both n-type and p-type components. It... -
Spin excitations in the paramagnetic phase of a charge-ordered bilayered mang...
In a previous experiment we measured the spin wave spectrum of the half-doped bilayer manganite Pr(Ca,Sr)2Mn2O7 in its spin, charge and orbital ordered phase. The data, which...
