Neutron Diffraction Studies of Polycrystalline CeCr1-xTixGe3 (x = 0, 0.5, 1.0)
Observation of both ferromagnetic ordering and Kondo/heavy fermion behavior in a system is not so common. Recently we have discovered the Kondo effect/heavy fermion behavior in... -
Dynamic Long Range Antiferromagnetic Order in Frustrated Perovskites, Ba2-xSr...
We use chemistry to arrange unusual crystal structures that set up conflicting interactions between magnetic ions in the material. In these compounds i is not possible for a... -
Phase Transitons and Phonon-Liquid-Electron Crystal Behaviour in Argyrodites
We wish to collect powder neutron diffraction as a function of temperature on four samples of argyrodites, A8GeQ6 (A = Cu, Ag; Q = S, Se), to investigate structural phase... -
Magnetostructural study of Percolation Behaviour in Double Perovskites Ba2Fe1...
We propose to use two days of beamtime on POLARIS to determine the structure and magnetic ordering that occurs in a series of cation-ordered perovskites. These cubic compounds... -
Structural and Magnetic Characterisation of a Novel Magnetic MOF
Metal organic framework (MOF) materials are porous solids formed from a network of metal centres mainly coordinated to organic linkers. Examples of magnetic MOFs with strong... -
Spin and cation order in AMn3B4O12 perovskites
A-site-ordered perovskite oxides with formula AA'3B4O12 have a rich variety of physical and chemical properties. Most have Jahn-Teller active Cu2+ or Mn3+ at the square-planar... -
In-situ hydrogen decomposition studies of ammonia borane and the diammoniate ...
Ammonia borane (AB) is one of the most promising hydrogen storage materials. We have extensively studied the low temperature behaviour of this material This proposal asks for 3... -
'Stabbing' or 'cut & thrust'? Texture analysis to distinguish usage of Bronze...
Defining when the practical use of Bronze Age swords changed from stabbing to cut-and-thrust weapons would have a huge impact on Bronze Age research. The change was accompanied...
