Defects and spin correlations in yttrium-doped spin ice
Excitations in spin ice fractionalize into de-confined magnetic monopoles that interact with each other via the magnetic Coulomb interaction. Substituting rare earth ions with... -
Quantifying the Asymmetry in Cell Membrane Mimetic Supported Lipid Bilayers.
Cell membranes are characterised by complex lipid composition and asymmetric distribution of lipids (lipids facing the outside of the cell are different from the lipids that are... -
Hysteresis in the deformation of layered crystal structures
The aim of this proposal is to study the origin of the hysteresis effect in many layered crystal structures, in particular MAX-phases, such as Ti2AlC. This effect has been... -
Non-uniform elastic deformation of layered crystal structures
The aim of the experiment is to determine the relative compressibility of the structural layers in three 211 MAX phases (Ti2AlC, Ta2AlC and Cr2AlC) using the PEARL-HiPr beam...
