A study of the interfacial width and its effects on fundamental solar cell ba...
The aim of our experiment is to understand the link between interfacial width and the photophysics at the interface to the operation of a polymer solar cell. We propose to... -
Polymerisation of Styrene in PEI-Surfactant Films on Si Wafers
We have been studying the formation of solid polymer-surfactant films formed from cationic surfactants with PEI. We wish to use the highly organised mesostructures formed in the... -
Thermo-lyotropic mesophases study of silicon supported lipid-DNA complexes by...
The aim of the present neutron reflectivity proposal is to obtain stereochemical and kinetic information studying the thermo-lyotropic behaviour of the lipid mixture DOPC-DDAB... -
Neutron reflection from surface-induced nana-stratified He-3/He-4 mixtures
It is proposed to use neutron reflectometry to study surface-induced nano-stratification of 3He-4He mixtures in the ultra-low temperature limit. The experiment promises to... -
Temperature dependence of magnetic dead-layers: a possible route to novel 2D ...
We propose to investigate the temperature dependence of magnetic dead-layer thickness in amorphous ferromagnetic CoFeTaB films on Si and GaAs semiconductor substrates. Magnetic... -
Magnetic Profile of a Novel Magnetic Quantum Well
Proximity effects associated with magnetic impurities embedded in paramagnetic Pd have been known to produced so-called giant moments. It has been demonstrated that confining Fe... -
Adsorption of fatty acids at the calcite-liquid interface
The interface of CaCO3 (calcite) and water is of paramount importance in a number of key academic and industrial areas, including scale deposition in domestic and industrial... -
The Glass Transition near the Surface of a Polybutadiene Film
The influence of surfaces and interfaces on the dynamical properties of polymers has been a very active area in recent years. The recently developed low energy muon (LEM)... -

The objective of this experiment is the study and characterization of spin-polarized electron states at the interface of EuO and 3d transition metal oxides. EuO is a... -
A PNR study of cobalt nitride films for spin injection and spin engineering a...
We propose to study cobalt nitride films using PNR with a view to their use in spin injection & spin engineering applications. Such systems have had little attention in the... -
Neutron reflection from the surface of a liquid 3He-4He mixture
In our previous experiments we have investigated the surface properties of liquid 3He - 4He mixtures by neutron reflection. We have shown that in broad temperature range there... -
Surfactant chain length effects on styrene incorporation in PEI/surfactant films
We have been studying the formation of solid polymer-surfactant films at the air-solution interface formed from cationic surfactants with PEI. We wish to use the highly... -
