Lattice dynamics study of filled-skutterudite compounds: RPt4Ge12 (R=Ba, La a...
The appearance of non-dispersive Einstein (¿rattling¿) modes, known as the phonon-glass paradigm in filled-skutterudite compounds, has been postulated as an origin of the high... -

Diffraction Resistance Measurements of a Chalcopyrite
During the course of a PhD project funded by CCLRC's CMPC, we have developed a cell that allows electrical transport property measurements to be made simultaneously with the... -
A Total Scattering Study of Dopamine, L-DOPA and Norepinephrine Aqueous Solut...
We request 5 days on Sandals to study the interactions of the neurotransmitters dopamine, L-dihydroxyphenylalanine and norepinephrine in aqueous solution. The interactions of... -
Mesophase transition induced by nanoparticles
In a previous SAXS experiment at Max-Lab (Sweden) we observed that the thermotropic mesophase transitional behaviour of the monoolein(MO):cholesterol:water system was... -
High-p/T setup and Anvil Material Testing
We request 6 days commissioning time be allocated on PEARL for the on-line testing of new high-p/T furnace setups and new anvil materials. -
Following the formation of Ho2Ge2O7 pyrochlore using high-pressure neutron di...
When synthesised at high pressure and temperature, holmium germanate adopts the pyrochlore structure. Because of its geometry, materials with this structure often have exotic... -
SESANS of beetle scales and butterfly wings
Neutron scattering and in particular SESANS is able to give us excellent ensemble averaging of the optical properties of materials which exhibit structural colour. We plan to... -
H2O transport into the deep Earth: A high P-T study of hydrous Phase-A
The mantle is estimated to be planet Earths most massive volatile (e.g. H, C, S, N) storage reservoir, with interactions between crustal and mantle reservoirs dominate the... -
Network compression and pressure-induced amorphisation in Zn(CN)2
Zn(CN)2 is an important material because it shows isotropic NTE over a large temperature range and to an extent more than double that of ZrW2O8. This unusual behaviour... -
Magnetic excitations in single-crystals of LaFeAsO
We aim to determine the magnetic excitation spectrum in single-crystals of the parent LaFeAsO compound and thereby address some basic issues concerning the nature of the... -
S=1 triplet character of the resonance peak in CeCoIn5
We propose to investigate the resonance peak in superconducting CeCoIn5 as a function of applied field. Preliminary low resolution cold triple-axis data has been suggestive that... -
Understanding the Pressure Response in Amines: Weak hydrogen-bonding vs Non-b...
Methylamines are an ideal chemical system to study in order to understand the effects of steric bulk and competing non-bonding interactions on hydrogen bonding at the networks... -

Solvation dynamics of the phosopholipid 1,2-dipropanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoc...
It is well known that water is the medium in which the overwhelming majority of biological processes take place. In cell membranes water molecules are thought to be essential to... -
Determination of the Thermoelastic Properties of Jadeite
Jadeite, NaAlSi2O6 is an important mineral in metamorphic rocks and occurs in low as well as high metamorphic grade. Previously we have determined the thermoelastic properties... -
Neutron Diffraction study of Highly Frustrated SrEr2O4
We propose to measure the neutron diffraction pattern of a single crystal sample of SrEr2O4, using the WISH diffractometer. As the magnetic Er ions in this compound are linked... -
Coating dependance of the phonon density of states in LiFePO4 nanoparticles
LiFePO4 (LFP) is a commercially used Li ion battery material for high power applications. Particle shape and surface play an important role in the Li diffusion and thus the... -
