Local boron and oxygen structure in lanthanide orthoborates LnBO3
We propose to carry out neutron total scattering on a series of five compounds with the formula LnBO3 (Ln = Y, Tb, Ho, Er, Yb). This will enable us to study the B--O distances... -
Structural investigation of the high temperature phases in ammonium iodate
We will investigate the structures of the high temperature (RT to 400K) phases of ammonium iodate, and the features that accompany these phase transitions. From our previous... -
Local structure in PMN-PT relaxor ferroelectrics
The proposed experiments will provide neutron total-scattering data for elucidating the nanoscale ordering of polar atomic displacements that underlie the commercially viable... -
Tracking changes in the phonon density of states in differently coated LixFeP...
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... -
Understanding pressure-driven structural changes in FePO4-II
The room temperature high pressure behaviour of FePO4-I has been investigated and a phase transition at around 2.5 GPa to the orthorhombic phase (FePO4-II) accompanied by a... -
Understanding pressure-driven structural and magnetic properties in LaFeO3
This proposal is concerned with determining variations in the high pressure crystallographic and magnetic structure of LaFeO3. LaFeO3 is a characteristic example of... -
Understanding the barocaloric effect in Mn3NiN using inelastic neutron scatte...
Materials with large caloric effects offer the opportunity to replace current refrigeration technologies that require the compression of hazardous gases. Whilst magnetocaloric... -
ToF ND investigation of Medieval double-edged swords
The European Medieval double-edged sword develops in the 11th century from the Viking Age sword. Already in the 10th century, some of the finest examples of the Ulfberht type of... -

Probing Low Dimensional Magnetism in Lanthanide Formate Magnetocalorics
Low dimensional magnetism provides a crucial playground for the discovery and exploitation of unconventional behaviour. Coordination frameworks have a tendency to adopt highly... -
Total scattering study of the orientational phase transition in para-terphenyl
There is currently a resurgence of interest in phase transitions in orientationally disordered molecular crystals. This is partly driven by the fact that new experimental and... -
fac-tris[2-phenylpyridinato-C2,N]iridium(III)
fac-tris[2-phenylpyridinato-C2,N]iridium(III) (tris-(2-phenylpyridine) iridium, [Ir(ppy)3]), is a heavy metal complex that is the most frequently used precursor molecule for the... -
Local Structure of Bi6WO12 and Bi28Re2O49 Oxide Ion Conductors: Role of Varia...
Oxide ion conductors are technologically important materials with applications in solid oxide fuel cells, oxygen sensors /pumps and membranes for oxygen separation. Two types of... -
Molecular architecture of novel, trichain-containing vectors for gene delivery
We have recently developed novel ternary lipopolyplex vectors (i.e. gene delivery vectors containing cationic lipid, plasmid DNA and a cationic peptide) in which, for the first... -

Origins of flexibility in a zero-thermal-expansion framework
Our proposal is to use neutron total scattering on GEM to study framework flexibility and the phenomenology of the displacive phase transition in the cyanide-containing... -
Structure of Cellulose Nanofibril Gels with Different Surfactants
This proposal is part of a project based on understanding the formation of gels in suspensions of partially oxidised cellulose nanofibrils and small amounts of additives, such... -
SANS DETERMINATION OF CO2 ABSORPTION INTO SURFACTANT STABILISING LAYERS
Recent SAXS measurements have indicated that CO2 can dramatically swell the surfactant layer in w/o microemulsions formed in CO2-swollen oils and also enhance solubilisation...
