Local magnetism in graphene / transition metal oxide nanocomposites
Properties of graphene that make it an important material are its exceptionally high conductivity, massless fermions and a high velocity of electrons near the Dirac points.... -
In-situ reaction of lithium amide or imide with manganese(IV) oxide
We request 3 days beam time on POLARIS for in-situ powder diffraction studies of the reactions of lithium amide or lithium imide with manganese(IV) oxide under flowing argon or... -
INS Determination of the Surface Properties of Nanoparticle Pollutants
Metal oxide nanoparticles are a form of pollution generated by a number of industrial procedures, and there is evidence that this class of nanoparticle can have a detrimental... -
INS STUDY OF BIOCHAR AS SOLID ACID CATALYSTS
Pyrolysis is considered as a sustainable way to generate energy from bio-oil, however, biochar – a solid residue by-product– is inevitably produced in the production line. We... -
