Our knowledge about microbial communities through water injection-production systems of oil reservoirs is currently lacking. However, it is an ideal way to reveal the effects of...

Alkali-surfactant-polyacrylamide (ASP) flooding technique has been used to exploit residual oil underground in high water-cut oil reservoirs. However, our knowledge about the...

Research within the field of functional oxides has always been very active. In recent years systems showing a coupling between ferroelectricity and magnetism have become one of...

We request one day of beam-time on POLARIS to collect Neutron Diffraction (ND) data from three novel 12H-type hexagonal perovskites that exhibit higher than expected...

Ferroelectric BaTiO3 (BT) constitutes a base system for many practical applications ranging from classical capacitors to tunable dielectrics. A dielectric response in BT is...

We propose to measure the inelastic scattering S(Q,E) maps from barium in both the polycrystalline and liquid phases, based on the fact that there are intriguing similarities...

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...

Magnetic and superconducting ground states have been proposed to coexist in a relatively narrow compositional range in the so-called 122 pnictide superconductors. We recently...

The phase behaviour of aqueous surfactant systems and in particular the transition between a gel (Lb) and liquid crystalline (La) phase can be influenced by some low molecular...

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...

Through a combination of small angle neutron scattering, ion-beam analysis and ellipsometry we have recently demonstrated that in organic photovoltaic devices (OPVs) the...

Patterned, swellable hydrogels are finding increasing applications as sensing, optical focussing and actuation elements in Lab-on-a-chip structures because of their property...
