Combined in-situ structural and hydrogen desorption/absorption studies of hyd...
The Li?N?H hydrogen storage system is one of the most promising candidates for hydrogen storage in vehicular applications and the addition of halide ions significantly increases... -
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... -
Adamantane in amorphous ice: A nanoprobe for detecting sintering, glass-trans...
Ice and carbon exist in vast quantities in our Universe. In fact, they often coexist, and form interfaces in highly diverse settings and environments. These include, for... -
Controlling the morphology of fullerene-free polymer solar cells using additi...
We have recently demonstrated, using small angle neutron scattering in combination with other techniques, that in organic photovoltaic devices (OPVs) the additive... -
On the peculiarities of the structure of particle stabilised foam
Many formulated products pass through or end up as foams, comprising immiscible millimeter sized bubbles dispersed into an aqueous continuous phase. Frequently, surfactants or... -
Impact of Anion Ordering on Strains in Perovskite Oxynitrides
This proposal will study the temperature dependence of the structure of a novel perovskite oxynitride SrTaO2N in order to establish how anion ordering impacts on the coupling of... -
IN-SITU NEUTRON DIFFRACTION STUDIES OF METAL-HYDRIDE HYDROGEN STORAGE MATERIALS
Recently [RB 900007], we have demonstrated that it is possible to determine the detailed site-by-site behaviour of hydrogen during in-situ absorption and desorption in metal... -
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... -
In-situ neutron powder diffraction studies of non-stoichiometry in Na battery...
We request 3 days on POLARIS to study the detailed crystal structure of a sodium battery cathode material that is currently under consideration for use in commercial sodium... -

Thermal expansion of Mg: pre-melting effects in hcp metals and the Earth's in...
Ab initio computer simulations have suggested that pre-melting phenomena occur in the elastic properties of hcp-iron at the conditions of the Earths inner core just before... -
Thermal expansion of kyanite, andalusite and sillimanite
Al2SiO5 forms three naturally-occurring polymorphs, kyanite, andalusite and sillimanite. These minerals are produced by varying degrees of metamorphism of sedimentary rocks, the... -
Opening up microemulsion phases in CO2
New types of water-in-CO2 microemulsions using mixed surfactant systems will be investigated by high-pressure SANS (HP-SANS). Exciting new results (see report on RB820030) have... -

Cu-ion mobility and lattice dynamics in the liquid-like phase of Cu2Se
Thermoelectricity enables the conversion of waste heat into useful power, and it is becoming increasingly important for power recovery applications at high temperature, where... -
Characterization of antiferromagnetic fluoride layers through PNR
Lithium fluoride (LiF) doping of aluminum electrodes is used in organic electronics. As a result of the chemical reaction between LiF and aluminum, the contact resistance is... -
Low Temperature Magnetic, Thermoelastic and Structural Behaviour of Antiferro...
We propose to study the low temperature structural and magnetic changes in three clinopyroxene phases FeGeO3, CaNiSi2O6 and CaCoSi2O6. All three phases order... -
Kinetics of Protein Adsorption on well-characterised polymer brushes
We wish to develop a rational understanding of the mechanisms underlying the way water soluble polymer brushes - in particular those of polyethylene oxide/polyethylene glycol -... -
