Confined water in a geo-polymer system
The main objective of this proposal is to investigate the dynamics of ultra-confined water in the slits pores of geological cavities (mineral tobermorite). This system provides... -
Intercalation of Ciprofloxacin into Lithium - Fluorohectorite at acid and bas...
Using quasielastic neutron scattering (QENS) we will investigate the intercalation of Ciprofloxacin (CIPRO) into the synthetic clay Lithium Fluorohectorite (LiFh) to... -
Is Zeolite Deactivation Through Pore Blocking?
Zeolites are porous framework materials that have active catalytic sites inside narrow channels. Unwanted reactions create coke in the pores which may block access to the active... -
Dynamics of Poly Dimethyl Amino Ethyl Methacrylate / water glycerol mixtures
We want to study the microscopic mechanisms of solvent dynamics such as water and glycerol in ahydrophilic polymer. Dielectric measurements suggest that below the glass... -
Microscopic Dynamics of Confined Water in Hexagonal Phase of REPO4 (RE=Y, La)
Confined water, a common natural phenomenon, shows very different structural, dynamical and phase behaviour vis-à-vis bulk, and it is depended on the host-water interactions.... -
Search for magnetic resonance in the superconducting state of Mo3Sb7
The intermetallic Mo3Sb7 compound exhibits superconductivity at Tc=2 K and exhibits interesting physical properties in the magnetic susceptibility, electrical resistivity and... -
Investigating the diffusion component of the toluene hydrogenation reaction i...
The diffusion of hydrocarbons relevant to the toluene hydrogenation reaction will be measured both as unconfined liquids and confined in the catalyst Pt/MCM-41. Diffusion will... -
Test for clustering in dilute CoxMg1-xO (x=0.03):
We have been pursuing a study of the magnetic fluctuations in CoO involving a single crystal experiment on MERLIN. To understand the complex magnetic hamiltonian involving... -
QENS Investigation of Proton Conduction Mechanism in Spark-Plasma-Sintered Pr...
Fuel cells exhibit high-energy efficiency and the only release is clean water when used with hydrogen. Proton ceramic fuel cells (PCFC) are from special interest because proton... -

Towards operando QENS
Catalysts are materials that alter the rate of chemical reactions and are broadly used to lower costs, improve yields and to reduce unwanted pollutants. To properly understand... -
Inelastic neutron scattering in the Ce3Co4Sn13 heavy Fermion compound
We propose to use the OSIRIS spectrometer to measure the inelastic magnetic scattering on the newly discovered heavy Fermion compound Ce3Co4Sn13. This compound has one of the... -
Monomer dynamics in polymer nanocomposites
We have recently shown that the addition of single walled carbon nanotubes produces a minimum in the diffusion coefficient with increasing nanoparticle concentration. Initially,... -
QENS studies of Na-ion battery materials
LixCoO2 is used extensively in portable batteries in laptops and mobile phones, but the scarcity of Li means that alternative materials are required. Structurally related... -
The dynamics of wild type and mutated myelin proteins P2 and CNPase.
The myelin sheath is a multilayered membrane wrapped around axons in the vertebrate nervous system; it enables the rapid transmission of nerve impulses. It contains a set of... -
Quasi-Elastic Neutron Scattering on adenine-based gold(I) hydrogel-entangled ...
The hydrogelation of gold(I) complexes is a fascinating albeit still underdeveloped area of soft matter chemistry, with feasible high-technology applications based on the unique... -
Quasielastic Neutron scattering Study of Water dynamics in Hydrated Cellulose...
The separation membrane is a key component in Polymer electrolyte fuel cells. It must be both an ionic conductor and an electronic insulator. Cellulose nanofibrill membranes... -
Cryopreservation of liver cell spheroids used in artificial liver bio-transpl...
The development of new cryopreservation strategies has major potential in medicine, in particular for storage of biological matter. The detailed characteristics of the cooling... -
