Ion Exchange and Dehydration in Clinoptilolite
Determination of the position of hydrogen in inorganic materials such as zeolites, coordination compounds, H2 storage materials, energy materials, organometallics etc is a... -
Melting point dynamics of Confined fluids
This proposal aims to investigate the dynamics of the melting transition in H2O and CO2 when confined in a vycor (SiO2) matrix. The field of fluids in confined geometries is... -
Liquid-liquid immiscibility and glass transitions in aqueous solutions
The microscopic structure of a dilute solution of LiCl in water is determined at different thermodynamic states in both the liquid and glassy phases. This solution exhibits... -
Local structure of liquid gallium-iodine and gallium-indium
Liquid metal alloys, with liquidus temperatures close to room temperature, are a rapidly developing research area with novel applications in renewable energy, catalysis,... -
Anharmonicity and Tunnelling on the Potential Energy Surface of Ammonia
We request beam-time on the VESUVIO spectrometer in order to characterise the Potential Energy Surface of the Ammonia molecule through a neutron Compton scattering measurement.... -
Towards operando QENS
Catalysts are materials that alter the rate of chemical reactions and are broadly used to lower costs, improve yields and to reduce unwanted pollutants. To properly understand... -
Define the crystal structures of lead-free ferroelectric, candidate multiferr...
We have a range of new structures in the lead-free ferroelectric, candidate multiferroic and SOFC cathode areas. The HRPD data will be used to define these new crystal... -
Structure and stoichiometry of boron carbides synthesised by microwave heating
A key focus in industrial processing is finding greener routes to well-established, high performance materials. Boron carbide is such a material, with excellent mechanical and... -
Hydrogen Uptake by Pillared Graphite Oxides
High sorption capacities and enhanced interaction strengths are the two most fundamental prerequisites for the deployment of carbon-based materials as hydrogen-storage media. In... -
The proton quantum states of the amorphous ices (VESUVIO)
While we now have a complete picture of the average local and intermediate structures of the various amorphous ices, their dynamic behaviour (glass transition and defect... -
Kinetics of Molecular Intercalation into Graphite Oxide
The search for new porous materials is increasingly be driven by socio-economic pressure to diversify our energy supply and minimize environmental impact. Carbon-based... -
What is the Room Temperature Structure of NaTaO3?
The current proposal seeks to establish the origin of t non-perovskite-like peak splitting observed in HRPD data for NaTaO3. It is our hypothesis that this is a result of the... -
Magnetoelectric coupling in the polycrystalline ceramic BiFeO3 - PbTiO3
There are a number of room temperature multiferroics based on BiFeO3. The BiFeO3 - PbTiO3 (BFPT) system shows ferroelectric and antiferromagnetic ordering at room temperature... -
