Structural Studies of PbZr1-xTixO3: completing the puzzle in the tetragonal a...
We request 6 days of HRPD time in order to study the structures on the tetragonal side of the lead zirconate-titanate (PZT) phase diagram, a region that has so far been rather... -
Neutron Diffraction Study of a Spin-1/2 Pyrochlore Lu2Mo2O5N2
Ammonolysis of R2Mo2O7 pyrochlores gives R2Mo2O5N2 containing S = ½ Mo5+. They are excellent candidate materials for investigation of quantum spin liquid phenomena and we have... -
Impact of Jahn-Teller Distortions in Sr0.5Pr0.5MnO3
We propose to use the HRPD to establish the sequence of structures, and the nature of the transitions between these, in two complex manganites Sr0.5Pr0.5MnO3 and... -
Investigations into the solid state structure of [Rh(PiBu3)2(H3BNMe3)]BArF4 a...
[Rh(PiBu3)2(H3BNMe3)]BArF4 is a rare example of a structurally characterised model compound for the sigma-complex intermediate in the transition metal catalysed amine-borane... -
Inelastic Neutron Scattering Investigation of the Interactions Between a Meta...
We have synthesised a Co centred and an In centred MOF which represent the first examples of MOFs in which the channels are functionalized by both acidic carboxyl and basic... -
Explore the spectrum of spin excitations in non-superconducting BaFe1.8Ni0.1C...
Recently, our neutron scattering experiments on electron doped BaFe2-xNixAs2 and hole doped Ba1-xKxFe2As2 suggest that the presence of both high-energy spin excitations giving... -
Neutron scattering study on the honeycomb Heisenberg-Kitaev magnet alpha-RuCl3
The experimental realization of a Heisenberg-Kitaev model on the honeycomb lattice has been a major topic in a condensed matter physics, because the model predict a novel... -
Study of gas absorption in MCM41.
We have studied the absorption of nitrogen gas in MCM41 on NIMROD at a pressure of 1 bar and at temperatures to 87K (A K Soper and D T Bowron, Chem. Phys. Lett., DOI:... -
Probing the interaction of hydrogen with supported gold nanoparticles
Small gold nanoparticles (1-5 nm) supported on metal oxides are extremely active catalysts for C-C coupling, aerobic oxidations and selective hydrogenations. The interaction of... -
Multiple Coulomb phase in CsNiCrF6
The compound CsNiCrF6 hosts multiple Coulomb phases. A Coulomb phase is a material in which a relationship can be identified between some part of the material's structure and a... -

Defect structure of oxygen-deficient Yb2Zr2O6.5
Ytterbium zirconate is of fundamental interest as a model frustrated magnet, and of potential technological importance as a thermal barrier material. In both cases oxygen... -
Neutron diffraction study of the buckled kagome-lattice Cu3R(SeO3)2O2Cl (R=Yb...
The experimental realization of a S=1/2 kagome lattice has been one of the holy grail of frustrated magnetism because when all antiferromagnetic exchanges cannot be satisfied, a... -
Simultaneous INS and Raman studies of lysozyme
The proposers have obtained a dispersive Raman spectrometer that is fibre optically coupled to a custom centrestick that will allow simultaneous Raman and neutron measurements.... -
Phase Separation and Jahn Teller Distortion in Molybdate Perovskites
Two days of beamtime on HRPD will be used to examine a family of double perovskites Sr2YbMO6 that are isostructural at room temperature. When M = Mo5+ the monoclinic perovskite... -
Uptake of Molecular Hydrogen by High-performance Carbon Nanostructures (IRIS)
High sorption capacities and enhanced interaction strengths are the two most fundamental prerequisites for the deployment of carbon-based materials as hydrogen-storage media. In... -
Magnetic structure of layered oxide chalcogenides: Ba2CoO2Cu2Te2 and Sr2CoO3CuSe
This is an experiment to measure the crystal structures and the thermal evolution of the magnetic structures of two new layered oxide chalcogenides. In Ba2CoO2Cu2Te2 we will... -
Understanding of Competing Magnetic Processes in La0.7Sr0.3MnxFe1-xO3 Perovskite
Perovskite manganates with the general formula L1-xAxMnO3 (e.g. L=La, Pr , Nd and A=Ca and Sr) have attracted significant interest as a result of their unusual transport and... -
Influence of superstructures on rich transport properties of lithium cobaltate
In the vicinity of x ~ 0.75, LixCoO2 has potential as a thermoelectric, since it has a high Seebeck coefficient and metallic conductivity. We have performed the first successful... -
