Magnetism in novel organic/inorganic hybrid spin-valve nanostructures.
We request 5 days (15 shifts) with CRISP to perform specular measurements on novel functionalized SrTiO3(substrate)/complex FM oxide/small molecules/ FM metal nanostructures to... -
Search for magnetic ordering in the high pressure metallic state of LuNiO3 & ...
It has very recently been shown that Mott-insulators located at the crossover regime closer to the itinerant side, such as RNiO3, undergo a pressure-induced transition into a... -
RF-muSR in the gas phase: the muoniated ethyl radical
Radio-frequency muon spin resonance is an exceptional technique for studying free radicals, but it has not been applied to study radicals in the gas phase. In a previous... -
Vibrational properties of Vanadium and Zirconium based metal hydrides
Inelastic neutron scattering has proven to be reliable tool to investigate the phonon structure of hydrides. E.g., it was shown that the vibrational structure of Ca(BH4)2 has a... -

In-situ neutron diffraction investigation of Ni-based batteries
Ni-based secondary batteries are currently used in many applications, however, the structural changes at the electrodes are not fully characterized and neutron diffraction is a... -
Transition metal carbides via novel, ultrafast microwave synthesis; Reaction ...
We are investigating the ultra-rapid synthesis of transition metal carbides using microwave (MW) irradiation. Currently we are establishing an understanding of these reactions... -
Evolution of complex surface structures in LAS / nonionic surfactant mixtures
This proposal is part of a broad programme of collaborative research between RAL / Oxford and Unilever, using predominantly scattering techniques to investigate the nature of... -
Polymer layer structure in stabilised metal nanoparticles for heterogenous ca...
The controlled synthesis of precious metal nanoparticles of the appriopriate chemical composition, optimised size and morphology for use in catalysis is an ongoing experimental... -

Influence of the cation disorder on the magnetic properties of underdoped cup...
We want to isolate the effects of doping, charge localization and local distortion on the transition from insulating antiferromagnet to superconducting metal in YBCO. We choose... -
Mechanism of charging metal oxide colloids in non-polar solvents
Contrast-variation SANS (CV SANS) will be used to determine how surfactant inverse micelles interact with model metal oxide colloids. By using deuterated surfactant (D-AOT) with... -
Insulator to metal transition in TiOCl at high pressures
We propose to study the high temperature structure of TiOCl where a pressure induced metal to insulator transition has been reported recently by Kuntscher et al.Due to our... -
Model Amphiphilic Deep Eutectic Liquids
Deep eutectic liquids (DELs) - mixtures of high melting-point solids that form stable liquids near room temperature ¿ have recently emerged as a new class of novel solvents with... -
High-energy spin excitations in antiferromagnetic metal of (Mn,Fe)3Si
Since magnetism in Fe-based superconductors (SCs) show many similarities to that in Cr, investigation of the overall spin dynamics of antiferromagnetic (AF) metal will give... -
Neutron Powder Diffraction Experiments on Ternary Alkali Metal Palladium and ...
Na2PdC2 and Na2PtC2 are the first examples of ternary alkali metal transition metal acetylides. They were synthesized and structurally characterised by our group in 2001 based... -
Layered Honeycomb Frameworks for Potassium-ion Battery Applications
Lithium (Li) ion batteries is the most common battery technology but lately also potassium (K) batteries are being considered. One reason is that the Li-reserves are limited and... -
Diffraction of potassium-intercalated graphitic nanofibres with hydrogen
Nanostructured carbons are promising precursors for a high-capacity reversible hydrogen storage material with fast kinetics, but the interaction of H2 with pure graphite is too...
