Magnetic excitations at the critical pseudogap point, p=0.19, in La2-xSrxCuO4
We propose to measure the spin excitation spectrum in cuprate superconductor, La2-xSrxCuO4 (LSCO) at x=0.19. Our aim is to resolve the doping dependence of the 18 meV spin... -
Hydrogen interactions in framework materials : part deux
Hydrogen binding to coordinatively unsaturated metal sites (CUMCs) in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has been extensively studied in our group using neutron powder diffraction... -
CuH: a continuing (nearly) 200 year old problem (TOSCA)
CuH was first prepared by Wurtz in 1844 by the reaction of aqueous copper sulfate with hypophosphorous acid. Several other routes have been developed including precipitation of... -
Structural investigation of nano sized CeO2 and ZnO systems
We will investigate bulk and nano size ceria and zinc oxide prepared by solvothermal methods to determine the defect chemistry associated with these solids. We will use neutron... -
Local structure / electronic-structure relationships in functional materials
This proposal is a low-cost/high-gain first step in an ambitious project: namely, to develop a combined neutron scattering and electronic structure calculation approach as a... -
Auger recombination in low temperature silicon measured by photo-MuSR technique
We measure electron-hole recombination rate in low-temperature pure silicon using the photo-MuSR technique. The previous works have measured the recombination rate down to -30... -
Dynamics of Water on Surface of Reverse Osmotic Membranes
We are proposing 10 days of beamtime on IRIS to investigate the diffusion process of H2O molecules adsorbed on polyamide, surface material of reverse osmotic membranes currently... -
Proton diffusion in lithium imide: a quasi-elastic neutron scattering study
Li_2NH has been recently considered for H_2 storage applications. However, its low-T crystal structure is still controversial, with at least 6 options compatible with the... -
Li(MeNH2)4: Poor Metal, Worse Metal, and Magnet
We request 2 days on GEM to determine the structure of crystalline Li(MeNH2)4: we will be preparing the fully deuterated analogue. Our investigations into the magnetic state of... -
Effect of texture on generation of intergranular stresses in 316H
Intergranular stresses are generated in polycrystalline material due to anisotropic deformation during monotonic and cyclic loading. Such generated intergranular stresses can... -
µSR study of centrosymmetric and non-centrosymmetric phase of HfRhGe
The field of non-centrosymmetric (NCS) superconductors has gathered much attention in recent years owing to its unconventional behavior. The lack of inversion symmetry in this... -
Exploration of the pressure-induced amorphization and glassy states of THF-cl...
Clathrate hydrates (CHs) are ice structures in which water molecules (host) form cages through hydrogen bonds. The cages can accommodate various types of molecules (guests),... -
Neutron reflection study of effects of non-ionic alkyl ethoxylates on model w...
We propose to use NR to study the structural features of the model wheat wax films formulated from the known main components of long chain primary alcohols and an ester. By... -

Investigation of the interactions of perfluoroalkyl substances with model wor...
Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are fully fluorinated, stabile, and surface-active compounds. They contain both a hydrophobic fluorinated carbon chain and an ionizable... -
In Search of Superionic Conductivity of Mg2+ Cations
The migration of cations with a charge greater than 1 has received very little attention historically, perhaps due to no commercially driven demand for the research as well as... -
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... -
Molecular architecture of monolayers formed by novel sterol-modified phosphol...
A family of sterol-modified glycerophospholipids (SML) have been synthesized in which the sn-1 or sn-2 position is covalently attached to cholesterol and the alternative... -
In-situ diffraction studies of ammonia decomposition over iron, ruthenium and...
We request 3 days beam time on POLARIS for the in-situ study of the crystalline phase composition of iron, manganese and ruthenium catalysts for ammonia decomposition. These... -
Order and disorder in (Mn,Fe)2(P,Si) magnetocaloric compounds
In the high-performance and low-cost (Mn,Fe)2(P,Si) magnetocaloric compounds, the detrimental hysteresis has been significantly reduced by balancing Mn:Fe and P:Si ratios, which...
