Selective recruitment of cholesterol to lipid rafts by multivalent protein bi...
Lipid raft microdomains offer a means to enhance the local concentration of membrane components as well as serve as a platform for raft associated endocytosis. Driven by... -
Probing spin-triplet superconducting correlations in non-collinear ferromagne...
We propose to measure the effects of spin-triplet superconducting correlations generated at the interface of a conventional superconductor within a multilayered magnetic... -
Structure and thermodynamics of polyethylene glycol chusions
A long term goal for biophysical studies has been to fabricate bio-membranes on solid supports. A highly hydrated ¿cushion¿ between the membrane and the underlying support can... -
Dynamics of polyaniline film growth, solvation and redox-evolution as a funct...
We propose time-resolved specular neutron reflectivity (NR) measurements during electrodeposition of polyaniline (PAni) films via different electrochemical control functions:... -
Assembly of supramolecular nanotubes into tubisome structures from self-assem...
Cyclic peptide-polymer conjugates can readily self-assembly into long nanotubes, and are being extensively studied for biomedical applications. Recently, we have conjugated a... -
A complex model of the bacterial outer membrane containing oriented proteins ...
The Outer Membrane (OM) is found in bacteria which cause plague, cholera & Legionnaire?s disease. It is important as; a barrier to antibiotics & the site of... -
An In-Situ Study of the Formation of Amyloid Fibrils at Polymer Surfaces Usin...
We propose to study the formation of lateral features during insulin amyloid formation on polymer substrates using off-specular neutron reflectivity. This will be done by... -
Neutron reflection studies on model wax films reconstituted from chemicals
Morphological features of plant waxes vary from species to species, but little is understood about what controls these morphological changes although it is widely believed that... -
SESANS study of phase segregation in microemulsion polymerisations
Spin echo small-angle neutron scattering (SESANS) beamtime is requested to study the growth of polymer nanolatices in novel microemulsion systems. The natural incompatibility of... -
Magnetic interactions in ferromagnetic topological insulator multilayer struc...
Topological insulators are one of the most important recent discoveries in condensed matter physics. The topological surface state can become gapped when ferromagnetic order is... -
Interlayer coupling in YIG/NiO/Pt trilayers
The spin Seebeck effect is able to convert a temperature gradient into a spin current. Many potential applications exist for the field of spintronics, which use these spin... -
Tuning the Magnetic Properties of γ-Fe2O3 Fe3O4 Thin Films for Atom Tr...
In this work we will investigate how the magnetic properties of nanometer thick iron-oxide films can be manipulated by heating them in air. Our preliminary results indicate that... -
Surfactants and additives at the metal-oil interface
The lubrication of surfaces by oils is a key aspect of many academic and industrial problems with significant financial implications. In this experiment we would like to extend... -
Substrate-dependent structure of thin hydrogel films
Hydrogels are water-rich polymer networks made from natural or synthetic polymers, which are widely used in biomaterials, medicine and antifouling. We have developed PEG-based... -
Using SERGIS to characterise monolayer buckling on the approach to collapse
Thin films just one or a few molecules thick can play an important role in controlling many important phenomena. This includes the lipid monolayers that coat the surface of our... -
Correlations between local magnetism and spin-orbit transport physics in topo...
One of the main challenges in spintronics research is to provide a link between magnetic elements and conventional electronic circuits. A novel approach to this old problem is... -
Neutron Reflection at the Mica Water Interface
Mica is an exceptionally important mineral in surface science, which until now has been inaccessible by neutron reflection. Here we propose a novel attachment method unlocking... -
Anhydrobiosis at the atomic scale: protein folding at low water content
Anhydrobiosis, the possibility of life in almost no water, is a puzzling phenomena common to a wide class of organisms, ranging from plant seeds to crustacean cysts, that can... -
