Chemical effect on elastic properties in hexa-alogenated-benzenes
Benzene is the parent compound of organic solids based on C-H...pi interactions that have been used in organic field effect transistors. Any change in the C-H...pi interactions... -
Exploring Structural and Spin Orders in the Quantum Spin Liquid Candidate Znx...
Quantum spin liquids (QSLs) are intriguing states of matter in which magnetic frustration and strong quantum fluctuations prevent classical long-range magnetic order. To date,... -
Structures and magnetism of chemical and electrochemical deintercalates of la...
We propose to use POLARIS to perform two related experiments. Firstly we will investigate the structures and compositions of derivatives of some layered Mn/Cu oxysulfides which... -
Polycarbonate and tetramethyl bisphenol A polycarbonate
The miscibility of polycarbonates (PC) with polystyrene (PS) appears to be closely related to chain dynamics. Among all polycarbonates, tetramethyl bisphenol-A polycarbonate... -
The effect of redox on the substitution mechanism of Ti in meteoritic hibonite
We request 3 days of beam-time on HRPD to identify the substitution mechanism of Ti3+ and Ti4+ in synthetic hibonites [CaAl12O19]. The experiment forms part of a larger... -
Equation of state of ice VI
Ice VI is likely to be a major mantle mineral in the interiors of large icy moons in our solar system, and in large icy extrasolar planets. It is also a common accessory phase... -
Electronically-driven structural transition in Ti-doped Ca3Ru2O7
The purpose of the experiment is to determine the effect of titanium doping on the structural and magnetic transitions of Ca3Ru2O7. The pure material undergoes a Néel transition... -
Configurational and displacive disorder in the cubic NTE material Cd(CN)2
Cubic cadmium(II) cyanide shows the most pronounced isotropic NTE effect known, with behaviour more than twice as extreme as that of better known materials such as ZrW2O8. This... -
Copy of: IINS Study of the Molecular Properties of Hydrogen Peroxide/Water Mi...
Hydrogen Peroxide is one of the cleanest, most versatile strategic base chemicals available. It is used at the large scale as oxidising agent in the chemical industry, as a... -
The effect of H/D isotopic replacement on the topology of the electron densit...
The Quantum Theory of Atoms in Molecules (QTAIM) is the quantum mechanical way of looking at molecular structures and bonding. Developed by Richard Bader, QTAIM is built on... -
The role of Disorder in Phase Transitions in some manganese Perovskites
The aim of this work is to understand the origin of the difference in the behaviour between the two doped manganites Sr0.65Pr0.35MnO3 and Sr0.70Ce0.30MnO3. The hypothesis we... -
The Dynamics of Water in Hydrous Micas
The study of the interaction mechanisms between water and layered silicates is central to the evaluation of the physicochemical properties of these materials, and it is an... -
Long-range cationic ordering in metal-organic perovskite solid solutions
The structure of the metal guanadinium formates is analogous to perovskite; the Cu compound is of particular interest as a potential multiferroic. We have recently demonstrated... -
Structure Direction from Electrons in the Presence of the 'Alkalide Option': ...
We request 5 days on SANDALS to investigate the structural effect of expanded metals in the LiNa-MeNH2 system at three different concentrations. The interplay between... -

Investigations of amorphous pharmaceutical materials produced from different ...
Pharmaceuticals are usually formulated in the crystalline state for obvious reasons of stability. They may also exist in a disordered and less cohesive state i.e. amorphous... -
Phase Separation in NaTaO3. Can it be controlled by pressure?
The present proposal seeks to establish the pressure dependence of the Pbnm-Cmcm transition in NaTaO3 and some doped variants thereof. It aims to understand the understand the... -
Structure, thermal expansion and vibrational properties of ammonium bicarbona...
Ammonium carbonates, sensu lato, have relevance to carbon capture schemes and as potential hydrogen storage materials. These compounds occur on Earth as minerals and, since... -
Investigation of the low temperature phases of SrSnO3
The present proposal is to examine the low temperature structural properties of SrSnO3 using the HRPD. This work aims to examine the structural basis for the unusual low... -
PDF study of the structural disorder in a quantum spin liquid candidate
We have identified a potential quantum spin liquid by tuning the magnetic interactions on a square lattice through d10-d0 cation mixing. MuSR shows dynamic magnetism down to...
