Ionic disorder and phase transition studies of Lightweight Hydrides LiBH4 and...
We ask for 3 days on EMU to study the Muon spectroscopy of both LiBH4 and Ca(BH4)2 as a function of temperature from 90K-650K. These materials have been extensively... -
High Q, High Resolution Diffraction Studies of the High Temperature Phase of ...
We ask for 1 day on HRPD to study the aristotype disordered rock-salt phase of ammonium borohydride. Our goal is to determine accurate cubic harmonic parameters to determine the... -
QENS on Lightweight Borohydrides
We propose to study two aspects of the hydrogen dynamics in complex hydrides:First: The structural transitions in borohydrides are believed to be connected with an increase in... -
Inelastic Neutron Spectroscopy Study of Ammonium Borohydride
Ammonium borohydride (ABH2) has been studied as a hydrogen storage material, it stores hydrogen on both cationic and anionic sites and has the largest gravimetric and volumetric... -
Structural studies of the cycling and decomposition of Mg(NH3)6(BH4)2
Given its high hydrogen gravimetric density, ammonia may be utilised as a hydrogen carrier, and thus ammonia stores are an area of interest. It is known that Mg(BH4)2 takes up... -
Quasielastic Neutron Spectroscopy of Ammonium Borohydride
We ask for 7 days on IRIS to study the quasielastic scattering in ammonium borohydride (NH4BH4). Using enriched ND4 and BD4, we aim to separate out the difference rotational and... -
Probing the phase transformation in Ca(BH4)2 by INS
A future hydrogen economy requires dense, safe, efficient and reversible hydrogen storage materials [1]. For mobile and in many cases also for stationary applications the... -
In-situ Specific Heat Measurements and Order Disorder Phase Transition Studie...
We request 4 days on HRPD to perform combined specific heat and neutron powder diffraction measurements of C60 and the molecular hydrogen storage materials, ammonia borane and...
