Diffuse scattering studies of squaric acid in an applied electric field
Organic ferroelectric compounds such as KH2PO4 and squaric acid, have attracted much interest in the past due to their potential in applications [1]. This interest has been... -
Wittig Reaction: Cleaning up 50 years of Waste in Metal-Free Catalysis
Our recent works have solved a 50 yr old problem (in part) with computational steering successfully guiding synthetic work towards a wittig process catalytic in phosphine. The... -
Neutron diffraction study of Ga and Al doped MnNiGe alloys
Magnetic equiatomic alloys (MEAs) of the general formula MM'X (M, M' = transition metals, X = Si, Ge, Sn) undergo martensitic transition on cooling from high temperature.... -
Low temperature neutron diffraction of Sm2Ti2O7 pyrochlore compound
Topological phases of matter became scientific highlights during the 70's and magnetic frustration is one of the mechanisms that is believed to drive systems to one of that many... -
High resolution INS spectra of hydrocarbonaceous overlayers formed on novel m...
For the first time, the research team aim to use INS to characterise a series of new high specification methane reforming catalysts. The enhanced performance of these catalysts... -

Geometric frustration of magnetic ordering in ordered double perovskites (ODPs) leads to spin-glass, spin-liquid and spin-ice states. However it is yet not clear whether these... -
Observation of low energy modes of adsorbed CO on a catalyst
Carbon monoxide occurs widely in industry in many roles. It is a feedstock for methanol synthesis and in Fischer-Tropsch chemistry for synthetic petrol and diesel. It is a... -
Discriminating adsorption sites in the coordinatively unstaurated 3d metal io...
Using chemically different substances as co-adsorbates allows one to block certain types of adsorption sites in a given porous material or even on a surface. This can be very... -
