RF MuSR in the gas phase: the Search for a Radical State
The main spectroscopic technique for studying radicals in solids and liquids, ESR, cannot usually be used to study radicals of more than 3-5 atoms in the gas phase due to strong... -
Sensing Sulphur Dioxide in Robust Porous MOF Materials via Simultaneous Micro...
We seek to develop new materials for sensing and removal of toxic gases (esp., SO2) and request 2 days on POLARIS to study the structural binding details and dielectric data... -
Comparative Interaction Studies of Antimicrobial Agents on Floating Asymmetri...
The outer membrane (OM) of Gram-Negative bacteria (GNB) is an asymmetric structure which contains complex lipids known as lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) on the outer surface. LPSs... -
Is cloud water nitrate radical chemistry important in oxidising thin films on...
Projected climate change is strongly influenced by clouds. The oxidative processing of pollutants in clouds affects droplet size and reflectivity, important climatic effects.... -
An exploration of the vibrational properties of energetic materials using Ine...
We have initiated a new research programme that seeks to correlate features of the crystal structures of energetic materials (explosives, propellants) with their sensitivities... -
Assembly of supramolecular nanotubes into tubisome structures from self-assem...
Cyclic peptide-polymer conjugates can readily self-assembly into long nanotubes, and are being extensively studied for biomedical applications. Recently, we have conjugated a... -
In-gap excitons in CaFe2O4
The proposal requests time to measure the low-energy excitations in CaFe2O4 as a function of temperature. Previous experiments have observed a series of in-gap states at high... -
The possibility of strongly ferromagnetic austenite in a stainless steel
It is generally accepted that austenitic steels (fcc) show no ferromagnetic signature. However, thermomagnetic measurements suggest an unexpected ferromagnetic transition (Tc =... -
Bilayer lipid membranes tethered by commercial surfactants on electrochemical...
Phospholipids assemble the backbone of biological membranes and their simplified biomimetic models, in particular sparsely tethered bilayer membranes (stBLM) were established to... -

Local structural effects in doped NaNbO3 ferroelectrics
Derivatives of the perovskite NaNbO3 are currently being studied as benign replacements for piezoelectric Pb(Zr,Ti)O3. In order to understand the structure-composition-property... -
Investigating the role of Oxygen in the delafossite-spinel transformations in...
CuFe1-xCrO2 has potential applications as an SOFC cathode material. It exhibits and interesting transformation on oxidation. This is a follow on from our recent HRPD experiment... -
Neutron diffraction experiments on an Etruscan vase
An antique vase from an Etruscan necropolis was made available for neutron-based experiments at ISIS. Preliminary studies on this sample have shown unusual features and opened... -
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,... -
Search for magnon-phonon coupling effect in metallic triangular antiferromagn...
Spin dynamics of non-collinear magnetic structures can exhibit the rare phenomena which go beyond the linear spin wave theory. Our previous studies on non-collinear... -
ALC spectroscopy of the molecule BEDT-TTF and some of its salts
The electron donor molecule BEDT-TTF (ET) provides a versatile building block for constructing molecular metals, superconductors, magnets and quantum spin liquids. A common... -
Copy of: Pressure induced phase switching magnetic ordering in BiFeO3-PbTiO3
This experiment seeks to continue previous work on PEARL, whereby the phase is altered in the room temperature multiferroic BiFeO3 - PbTiO3 using hydrostatic pressure with the... -
Effect of Pressure on the Structure and Dynamics of Titanium Tetrachloride
At ambient pressure TiCl4 forms a molecular solid consisting of isolated TiCl4 molecules (phase-I). At 0.5 GPa this structure undergoes a transition to phase-II, which is... -
Density-driven structural transformations in magnesium silicate glass
The density-driven structural transformations in the magnesium silicate glass MgSiO3 will be investigated at pressures increasing to 17.5 GPa. This glass is one of a family of... -
Nearly ferromagnetic fluctuations in CeRhSi3? A high resolution study at lo...
The proposal requests time on OSIRIS to measure the low-energy magnetic fluctuations in CeRhSi3. This compound is a noncentrosymmetric superconductor under pressures of ~10...
