Structural behaviour of gallium in phosphate glasses for bone cements
Bone cements are an important class of biomaterial used in hard tissue surgery as well as periodontology. Many of these are glass-ionomer cements formed from an aluminosilicate... -
Structures of New Doped RuO2 Rutiles
We have prepared some new mixed-metal oxides using a chemical synthesis approach that provides access to materials not seen using other techniques. The materials are potentially... -
Towards the Calibration of Chemical Pressure
The application of hydrostatic pressure allows the precise tuning of atomic separations, which control electronic structure and virtually all the interatomic interactions that... -
Local Structure in Ni-Co-Cr alloys
This experiment will quantify the local structure in the solid solution phase of Ni-Co-Cr alloys. Diffraction data will be acquired from a series of alloys, with a varying Ni:Co... -
Variable temperature studies and local structure analyses of LiFe1-xMnxPO4 na...
In order to probe Li content, cation distribution and defects in a series of LiFe1-xMnxPO4 nanoparticles, we propose the use of neutron powder diffraction and pair distribution... -
Structures of Titanium Dioxide Nanomaterials using Neutron Total Scattering
We propose to examine the structure of anatase titanium dioxide (TiO2) obtained by different synthetic techniques (including hydrothermal and sol-gel) and of different particle...
