Local Structure of Bi6WO12 and Bi28Re2O49 Oxide Ion Conductors: Role of Varia...
Oxide ion conductors are technologically important materials with applications in solid oxide fuel cells, oxygen sensors /pumps and membranes for oxygen separation. Two types of... -
New brownmillerite-based oxide ion conductors: Local structure and structure-...
Oxide ion conductors are key components in a number of technologically important applications. Our research programme on the development of new oxide ion conductors, using... -
Structural investigation of biodegradable Mg-based bulk metallic glass
Mg-Zn-Ca glasses show considerable promise for use as medical implants. Magnesium, zinc and calcium are all elements found within the human body, and the biocompatibility of... -
In-situ investigation into the hydrogen sorption pathways of High Entropy All...
Anthropogenic global warming is largely accepted by society and the need for alternative and renewable fuels is desired. One such alternative fuel is hydrogen, considered to be... -
The effect of combined modifiers: understanding the interactions between alka...
The mixed alkali effect is a well-known phenomenon whereby combining two alkalis in a ternary glass system can produce physical properties which can be superior to, but cannot... -
Negative thermal expansion in ReO3: anomalous variation with temperature
ReO3 is a well-known oxide framework with unusual thermal expansion behaviour, exhibiting multiple regions of both positive and negative thermal expansion (NTE). We propose to... -
Short range static and thermal disorder in glasses and crystals
We seek to use the temperature-dependence of the neutron correlation function to investigate the extent of static disorder in glasses and crystals, and also to investigate the... -
Spin ordering in strongly geometrically frustrated magnets YCa3(MO)3(BO3)4 (M...
Geometrically frustrated magnetism (GFM) occurs in systems where magnetic cations (spins) are located on a lattice with a triangular geometry and there are antiferromagnetic... -
The Calcium Environment in Gallate Glasses
The environment of calcium in glasses is of widespread interest, and there has been a number of structural studies of calcium aluminate glasses. However, the experimental data... -
Cathodes for Na-ion batteries
Lithium-ion batteries are of great interest for automotive applications but are expensive. Sodium is much more abundant and hence cheaper so for e.g. storing energy from... -
The anomalous thallium borate anomaly
We have a continuing interest in the structural role of lone-pair cations in glasses. Thallium oxide behaves unusually in borate glasses, not only in terms of its own... -
The First Structural Characterisation of some Gallium Oxide Polymorphs
We propose to make the first detailed structural study of some polymorphs of gallium oxide that remain poorly characterised and yet have applications in catalysis and are used... -

Test experiment: Neutron diffraction on helium in silica
We request 3 days of beamtime on GEM to attempt to perform neutron diffraction on helium inside vitreous SiO2. Significant amounts of helium can be dissolved into the glass... -
A structural study of titanium tellurite glasses
Tellurite glasses exhibit strong non-linear properties which are related to the asymmetric environment of the Te atom. The non-linear optical effects are strongest when the Te... -
Structural characterisation of new Li- and Na-ion conductors for potential us...
Re-chargeable Li ion batteries play a key role in modern consumer electronics and may have an important part to play as energy storage devices in a low carbon economy of the... -
Structural studies of modified iron phosphate glasses to understand key struc...
We intend to use neutron diffraction and x-ray diffraction to investigate the structure of potassium and barium iron phosphate glasses, which are potential candidate systems for...
