An attempt to measure sorption through strain induced deformation
Zeolite catalysts are highly porous materials that take up gases and vapours into their pores. Accommodating the guest molecule inside the host framework leads to distortion... -
Investigating the stability and energetics of the hidden low temperature skyr...
Magnetic skyrmions are topologically protected spin structures with potential uses in low power devices. Cu2OSeO3 is a cubic material containing both skyrmions and other spin... -
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... -
Vacancy Distribution in Praseodymium Doped Ceria
Doped cerias are currently being used as oxide ion conducting electrolyte materials in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). Depending on the nature and concentration of the dopant... -

This proposal is part of our research programme to explore the spin dynamics of strongly-frustrated quantum magnets. A canonical model is the spin-1/2 triangular antiferromagnet... -
The role of defects in the pressure-induced octahedral tilting in Prussian bl...
We propose a high-pressure study of two Prussian blue analogues, Mn[Co(CN)6]0.67 and MnPt(CN)6. Our high-pressure XRD study shows a phase transition from cubic to rhombohedral... -
Towards the Calibration of Chemical Pressure
The application of hydrostatic pressure allows the precise tuning of atomic separations, which control electronic structure and virtually all the interatomic interactions that... -
Non-Fullerene Based Acceptors for Organic Solar Cells
Organic Solar Cells (OSCs) have attracted substantial commercial and scientific interest as they provide a pathway to realizing a renewable energy source that is portable... -
The PVT equation of state of D2O ice III / IX
The high-pressure form of solid water, ice III, is the equilibrium phase in contact with liquid water at pressures from about 2.0 - 3.5 kbar. Consequently, its properties are... -
Quenched salt hydrates new ways of probing water clusters.
Very rapid quenching of liquids to form a glass, from which crystalline phases are subsequently obtained by devitrification, is a powerful technique for obtaining novel... -
High-pressure studies of energetic co-crystals and salts
This proposal will explore the effects of elevated pressures and temperatures on the structures of an energetic co-crystal containing nitroguanidine (NQ)and an energetic salt... -
Silica perturbation of the water structure around cationic micelles during te...
