muSR study of the heavy fermion antiferromagnetic superconductor CeNi0.8Bi2
Recently the coexistence of superconductivity (SC) and antiferromagnetic (AFM) ordering has been reported in CeNi0.8Bi2 with TSC = 4.2 K and TN =5 K, which crystallises in the... -
A PNR study of cobalt nitride films for spin injection and spin engineering a...
We propose to study cobalt nitride films using PNR with a view to their use in spin injection & spin engineering applications. Such systems have had little attention in the... -
The 400 meV excitation in LSCO and its doping dependence
Neutron scattering techniques at the time-of-flight spectrometers at ISIS have shown that there is a well defined excitation with an energy of about 400 meV in YBCO. A similar... -
Non-invasive study of Indian sword blades
The Wallace Collection, London has one of the most important collections of Indian Arms & Armour outside the subcontinent. Museum objects must be studied non-destructively,... -
Electric field effect on the interfacial uncompensated spins in the Co/BiFeO3...
We propose a study on the electric field control of uncompensated spins in the Co/BiFeO3/STO bilayer system by PNR. Multiferroic BiFeO3 (BFO) has attracted enormous interest... -
Superconductivity induced changes in the ferromangetic order of Y(1-x)PrxBa2C...
By polarized neutron reflectometry we want to investigate the magnetic field profile in Y(1-x)PrxBa2Cu3O7/La(2/3)Ca(1/3)MnO3 high-Tc superconductor/ferromagnet superlattices. In... -
Study of the protein denaturation in glassy matrices
The proposed experiment is addressed to use the MARI spectrometer to study the thermal denaturation process of the psychrophile enzyme alpha-amylase in presence of bioprotectant... -
EuO tunnel barriers and metallic interfaces
The tunneling magnetoresistance ratio of a magnetic tunnelling junction is influenced by many different factors, one of which is hybridization at the metal/oxide interface. We... -
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... -
Nanoemulsions for dermatological drug delivery
Nanoemulsions have considerable potential for dermatological drug delivery. Small angle neutron scattering in combination with contrast variation will be used to characterize... -
Low energy spin dynamics of the heavy fermion antiferromagnetic superconducto...
Recently the coexistence of superconductivity (SC) and antiferromagnetic (AFM) ordering has been reported in CeNi0.8Bi2 with TSC = 4.2 K and TN =5 K, which crystallises in the... -
The structural role of zinc in complex phosphate glasses for new bone cements
A study of zinc containing phosphate glasses for biomedical applications is proposed. The structural role of zinc as a function of composition will be investigated through... -
Magnetic excitations in FeCrAs
We propose to carry out inelastic neutron scattering experiments to study magnetic excitation spectrum in FeCrAs. FeCrAs exhibits magnetic ordering around 125 K, which is... -
Magnetic excitations in stoichiometric Sr3Fe2O7
We propose to investigate magnetic excitations in the stoichiometric Ruddlesden-Popper material Sr3Fe2O7. It will provide us detailed information on the magnetic interactions in...
