In-situ reaction of lithium amide or imide with manganese(IV) oxide
We request 3 days beam time on POLARIS for in-situ powder diffraction studies of the reactions of lithium amide or lithium imide with manganese(IV) oxide under flowing argon or... -
Formation and ammonia decomposition behaviour of lithium nitride hydride
Ammonia is seen as a key part of the transition to a sustainable energy economy, but needs decomposition catalysts to release its stored hydrogen. Lithium nitride-hydride... -
Simltaneous dielectric spectroscopy and neutron diffraction
We have constructed a novel microwave frequency resonator that can sit within the GEM and POLARIS diffractometers and will allow us to simultaneously collect diffraction and... -
Sensing SO2 in Robust Porous MOF Materials via Simultaneous Microwave Dielect...
We seek to develop new MOFs for sensing and removal of toxic gases (e.g., SO2) and request 4 days on POLARIS to study the structural binding details and dielectric data... -
Clarifying the role of acid and base dopants in the hydrogen-ordering phase t...
Using ISIS facilities, our team has discovered three new phases of ice: ices XIII, XIV and XV. These phases form in the presence of small amounts of hydrochloric acid. Yet, the... -
Alkali metal/ammonia intercalates of Bismuth Selenide
We have recently shown that the topical layered compound bismuth selenide which is of interest in the field of thermoelectrics and topological insulators can be intercalated by... -
In-situ Thermoelectric Measurements of Copper Iron Sulphides
Thermoelectric devices are capable of converting thermal energy directly into electrical energy. Large-scale applications of the technology requires materials that are composed... -
Increasing the stability range of substituted delta-Bi2O3 oxide ion conductor...
It has been demonstrated that stabilised bismuth oxides can be successfully incorporated into intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells. These stabilised bismuth... -
Elucidation of dynamic structural characteristics of γ-Na3PS4 plastic crystal...
We aim to further clarify the atomic scale structure of a novel phase of the Na3PS4 solid ion conductor. This phase appears to possess ideal properties to be used as a solid... -

Insights into the structure of mechanochemically-synthesised ternary lithium ...
In the current work, we study inorganic solid-state electrolytes for lithium-ion batteries. These materials, unlike the traditional liquid electrolytes, could lead to a... -
Spin ordering in strongly geometrically frustrated magnets YCa3(MO)3(BO3)4 (M...
Geometrically frustrated magnetism (GFM) occurs in systems where magnetic cations (spins) are located on a lattice with a triangular geometry and there are antiferromagnetic... -
Structural Investigations of Mixed-anion Argyrodites
Argyrodites exhibit promising thermoelectric (TE) properties but a structural transition causes cracking of ingots on cooling to ambient temperature, introducing problems for... -
Lithium ion distribution in lithium aluminium phosphate and lithium germanium...
There has been a renewal of interest in lithium ion conducting solid electrolytes for use in lithium batteries. The ease of handling and scale-up, make oxide based systems, most... -
