Sensing SO2 in Robust Porous MOF Materials via Simultaneous Microwave Dielect...
We seek to develop new MOFs for sensing and removal of toxic gases (e.g., SO2) and request 4 days on POLARIS to study the structural binding details and dielectric data... -
Structure Sequence in Ca(1-x)Nd2x/3TiO3 Ceramics
Microwave dielectric ceramics are used in communications devices. Such materials need high relative permittivity, high dielectric quality factor and be temperature stable.... -
Hydrogen from ammonia using lithium imide metal nitride composites
Light metal amides and imides are a new class of highly active ammonia decomposition catalysts. Indeed, composites of lithium imide and transition metal nitrides are likely to... -
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... -
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... -
Relaxor-like dielectric behaviour in stoichiometric Sillenite Bi12SiO20
We request 1 day of beam-time on POLARIS to collect Neutron Diffraction (ND) data on the Sillenite Bi12SiO20 (gamma-Bi2O3) that we have recently discovered to exhibit a... -
The high temperature phases of multiferroic YMnO3
Hexagonal YMnO3 is a well-studied, but poorly understood, multiferroic material, which adopts the 'geometric' mechanism of ferroelectric distortion, rather than the more normal... -
Hydrogen production from ammonia using lithium imide: an isotope study
We have recently discovered that light metal amides and imides are excellent cattalysts for the decomposition of ammonia. We request 3 days on POLARIS to perform in situ neutron... -
Understanding the decomposition of ammonia by lithium-calcium imide
Among light metal amide-imide catalysts for ammonia decomposition, lithium-calcium imide is the most promising candidate for practical application. Ex situ diffraction data...
