In-situ hydrogen decomposition studies of ammonia borane and the diammoniate ...
Ammonia borane (AB) is one of the most promising hydrogen storage materials. We have extensively studied the low temperature behaviour of this material This proposal asks for 3... -
Neutron diffraction and µSR investigation on YbPd
YbPd crystallizes in the cubic CsCl-type structure and reported to have magnetically ordered ground state with the mixed valence of the Yb ion. Further, it under goes through... -
Atomic structure of formamidinium lead iodide perovskite
New perovskite phases containing lead and halogens with a molecular cation are providing new options for materials in solar cells, giving unusually high efficiencies in... -
Improved conversion of biomass-derived γ-valerolactone to butene over a ...
We request 7 days on TOSCA to carry out inelastic neutron scattering (INS) study of a multifunctional catalyst (NbAlZSM-5) for the efficient cleavage of C-O bonds and of C-C... -
Aza-crown-stabilized Alkali-Alkalide Systems: Solvent and metal effects on di...
We request 4 days on IRIS to investigate the diffusional and rotational dynamics of the alkalide forming, fully methylated aza-crown hexamethyl-hexacyclen (HMHC) in... -
Multiferroic (Ferroelastic/Magnetic) Phase Transitions in KMnF3
KMnF3 perovskite undergoes 3 structural, and two magnetic phase transitions on cooling from 300 K to 2 K. Above 185 K the compound is in the aristotype structure, on cooling... -
INS studies of molecular hydrogen in K-doped electrospun graphite nanofibres
The physisorptive capacity of graphite-based nanomaterials for hydrogen is strongly dependent on their internal surface areas and pore dimensions. We have made electrospun... -
Morphology-activity relationships in catalysis promoted by MoOx nanoparticles
Metal and metal oxide nanostructures can be prepared in much different morphology (nanowires, nanobelts, nanofibres etc.) which are known to exhibit better adjustable properties... -
Molecular dynamics and melting in CH3NH3PbCl3:
The organic-inorganic perovskites (CH3NH3Pb(Br,Cl,I)3) have been identified as efficient photovoltaic materials. Theoretical calculations have suggested that the low energy... -
Is dynamic asymmetry the essential ingredient in the (universal?) 'strong-fra...
We want to elucidate whether the so-called ¿strong-fragile¿ transition reported for water mixtures is a universal phenomenon driven by confinement effects originated by the... -
Thermal expansion and phase transition in magnesium sulfate trihydrate
A recent single-crystal study determined the crystal structure of MgSO4.3D2O, and discovered that a first-order phase transition occurs when the crystal is cooled below 245 K.... -
Proton dynamics in novel organic ferroelectric materials
The vast majority of known ferroelectrics are inorganic compounds such as barium titanate and potassium dihydrogen phosphate. Contrary to naïve expectation, ferroelectricity in... -
Negative thermal expansion in the rutile phase of ZnF2
It has recently been discovered than the rutile phase of zinc fluoride shows negative thermal expansion along all three crystallographic axes. What is highly unusual about this...
