Lithium transition metal nitrides Li3-xMxN (M=Co, Ni and Cu) have been reported previously as promising anodes for Li-ion batteries. The most promising compound in this family... -
The icy-moon analogue of MgSiO3-perovskite: MgSO4.9H2O a high-pressure study
Mg-sulfate 11-hydrate (meridianiite) is decomposed by pressure to form Mg-sulfate 9-hydrate + ice, a process that will occur in the mantles of large icy planetary bodies and... -
Investigation of glycolide-h4 and d4 at high pressure.
This proposal seeks to investigate the polymorphism and polymerisation of glycolide. Glycolide is a six-memebered ring structure that polymerises into poly(glycolic acid) and is... -
