Aggregation phenomena inside polymer brushes: lateral structure
We will use off-specular reflectivity to probe the characteristic lateral length-scales in responsive polyelectrolyte brushes grown by surface-initiated ATRP from solid-liquid... -
Defects and monopole dynamics in spin ice
We have determined the defect structure of oxygen-depleted Y2Ti2O7 using diffuse neutron scattering, and we find that these oxygen vacancies are also the dominant defects in... -
Chain Conformations in Monodisperse/Polydiserpse Electrospinning Solutions
Electrospinning is a technique which produces fibres from a polymer solution exposed to an electric field. The technique forms fibres substantially smaller in diameter than a... -
Defects and spin correlations in yttrium-doped spin ice
Excitations in spin ice fractionalize into de-confined magnetic monopoles that interact with each other via the magnetic Coulomb interaction. Substituting rare earth ions with... -
Density-driven structural transformations in boro-germanate glass
The resistance of glass to fracture is crucial for its use as a structural material in fields ranging from engineering to architecture. Here, B2O3 can play a crucial role in... -
In situ investigation of templated polymerisation
Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are a particularly interesting class of three dimensional crystalline networks formed by the self-assembly of metal ions with organic ligands.... -
Interaction of polypeptide with surfactant: SANS study of solution aggregation
This proposal constitutes part of our ongoing study towards understanding the solution aggregation of collagen based polypeptides and their interactions with model surfactants.... -
Solution structures of the immunologically important proteins IgA and C3b
We are unravelling the solution structures of the Fab and Fc fragments in the IgA antibody family important in mucosal immunology. Having completed the structures for IgA... -
Interaction of polypeptides with surfactants: aqueous solution aggregation
This proposal constitutes part of our ongoing study towards understanding how collagen based polypeptides interact with ionic surfactants using SANS. Both SDS and C12TAB will be... -
La dopped EuO
Currently one of the biggest challenges in spintronics is the generation and control of a spin polarized current at room temperature. Spin injection from europium monoxide is of... -
Conformational behaviour of amphiphilic polymethacrylate-poly(acrylic acid) c...
We shall use SANS to investigate the conformational behaviour of a range of amphiphilic copolymers with varying architectures: graft, hyperbranched block, hyperbranched random,... -
Effect of End Group on RAFT-Polymers for Lipid Nanodisc Stabilisation
Polymer stabilized lipid nanodiscs offer enormous potential as tools for enabling membrane protein structural studies & biophysics. Previously we studied discs formed using... -
The effect of polymer therapeutics on the structure of mucin solutions toward...
Progress in the development of nano-sized hybrid therapeutics and nano-sized drug delivery systems - "nanomedicines" - over the last decade has been remarkable. One key...
