The technology of organic electronics unlocks new ways to create semiconductor devices which are impossible using more conventional materials. The organic semiconductors at...

We wish to perform longitudinal field measurements on the dipeptide Trp-Tyr under laserexcitation, to probe the electron transfer process within the molecule. We have already...

Benzophenone is an ideal material to study vibrations of a muon radical centre with near-IR laser light, as all C=O bonds in solid state are almost parallel to each other and it...

The MuSES project currently ongoing in the HiFi spectrometer gives unique opportunity in the field of photochemistry and photophysics of organic molecules. After two successful...

Antioxidants are very important molecules because they can prevent or slow down the oxidative damage to our bodies. When our bodies use oxygen, free radicals are released which...

There have been ALC studies on the interaction of muons with native proteins, but little systematic work that contributes understanding of how spectroscopic information alters...

The proposed experiment aims to determine the electron spin relaxation rate of the amorphous polymer PTAA as a function of temperature using the HIFI muon spectrometer. For...

Our ability to control the synthesis of this kind of material has led to the development of a family of Ru-Ru-M-backbone organometallic compounds with general formula...

This proposal aims to investigate the effect of magnetic impurities on the ALC resonance amplitude of an organic semiconductor (RRa-P3HT), to determine whether the effect can be...

Organic solar cells are of great interest, due to their relative cheapness and ease of fabrication. Unfortunately the efficiency of the devices is much lower than the...

There have been ALC studies on the interaction of muons with native proteins, but little systematic work that contributes understanding of how spectroscopic information alters...

Nearly all polymers form glasses and the glass transition at temperature Tg dominates many physical properties of polymers that are relevant for their applications. The most...

Small-sized metal nanoparticles (NPs) are of long standing interest to both magnetism and heterogeneous catalysis. Recent µSR studies of bare Au NPs encapsulated in mesoporous...

Electron transfer (ET) processes in peptides and proteins are key steps in the functioning of several natural enzymes including DNA photolyase and ribonucleitide reductase,...
