Understanding pressure-driven structural changes in FePO4-II
The room temperature high pressure behaviour of FePO4-I has been investigated and a phase transition at around 2.5 GPa to the orthorhombic phase (FePO4-II) accompanied by a... -
Understanding pressure-driven structural and magnetic properties in LaFeO3
This proposal is concerned with determining variations in the high pressure crystallographic and magnetic structure of LaFeO3. LaFeO3 is a characteristic example of... -
Understanding the giant barocaloric effect in Mn3AN using pressure and temper...
Materials with large caloric effects offer the opportunity to replace current refrigeration technologies that require the compression of hazardous gases. Barocaloric materials... -
Dynamics of in Poly(vinyl alcohol)-SiC Nanofiber Composite
Inorganic-organic hybrid nanocomposites are formed by incorporating inorganic nanoparticles in soft organic polymer matrices. The dynamics of the polymer can be affected due to... -
Simultaneous Raman and structural studies of the proton conductor CsHSO4.
Caesium hydrogen sulfate, CsHSO4 is a solid acid proton conductor, which operates in the temperature range from 100 to 200 °C. Hence, it has potential application in... -
Probing the mechanism of thermoelectric enhancement in Kondo insulator YbB12 ...
We propose to study the evolution of the spectral features in the dynamical magnetic response in series Yb_{1-x}Tm_{x}B_{12} (x=0.15, 0.6, 0.8). Tm doping results in non-trivial... -

Microscopic dynamics of water associated to phospholilipd/polysaccharide nano...
In recent years nano- and microparticles composed of polymeric or lipid material have been proposed as drug carriers. Their use allows the modification of the biopharmaceutic... -
Water diffusion in small peptide based supramolecular materials
Supramolecular materials, especially supramolecular gels, have gained increasing importance in material science due to the ease of modification of these materials through... -
Revising the onset of anharmonicity in proteins
Our previous INS studies of ¿dry¿/hydrated apoferritin show that the hydrated protein undergoes a dynamical transition, Td, at 200K. Such behavior, first modeled by Doster et al... -
Investigating proton motion in battery and hydrogen storage materials
Our research team have an ongoing project investigating ion diffusion processes in solid electrolyte and hydrogen storage materials. In terms of the former, we have been... -
Molecular dynamics in the Metal-Organic Framework [CH3NH3][Co(COOH)3]
Magnetic hybrid organic-inorganic Perovskites have attracted much attention lately as they potentially show a magneto-electric coupling, thanks to the strong interaction between... -
Examining the properties of a water channel in an organic matrix - TOSCA
The objectives are to study the interaction of water molecules held in a channel in an organic matrix. We have structurally characterised a water tetramethylpiperididine complex... -
Spin dynamics in the zig-zag ladder beta-CaCr2O4
We propose to investigate the spin dynamics in the frustrated antiferromagnet beta-CaCr2O4. Its structure consist in one dimensional chains of Cr+3 forming the legs of zig-zag... -
