Solvent-induced curvature of micelles
The purpose is to follow a structural evolution as water soluble (normal curvature) micelles are gradually transformed into oil soluble (reversed curvature) aggregates. Although... -
Proton mobility in Solid Super Proton Conductor (H3O)SbTeO6 at controlled hum...
Super proton conductors are in the focus of interest because of their use in low temperature fuel cells. In this project we try to obtain information on proton mobility,... -
Shear controlled crystallisation of low molar mass compound in a polymer matrix
The aim of this experiment is to explore a very recent discovery made by ourselves that shear flow can suppress the nucleation and growth of crystals of specific low molar mass... -
A µSR study of the charge density wave superconductor CuxTiSe2.
Superconductivity and the charge density wave (CDW) are two very different cooperative electronic phenomena. However, both occur because of Fermi surface instabilities and... -
Interfacial structures between Nafion and Platinum under controlled electroch...
We wish to propose a neutron reflectivity (NR) experiment for a Nafion/platinum interface under controlled electrochemical potential, because NR is the only technique to study... -
Evidence for a Diffuse Interfacial Region at the Dichloroethane/Water Interface
The 1,2- dichloroethane (DCE)/water interface is important because of its suitability as an electrochemical interface between two immiscible electrolyte soloutions. An issue of... -
The mechanism of Oxygen Absorption/Desorption in YBaCo4O7+d (Y114) studied by...
An uncommon oxygen absorption/desorption behavior for cobalt oxide YBaCo4O7+d was found[Karppinen et al. Chem Mater 18 2006 490]. Y114 absorbs and desorbs oxygen up to d = 1.5... -
Magnetic Roughness controlled by anisotropy
This is a continuation for proposal number 520445, where we looked at the magnetic roughness in the superlattice system Pd/Fe/Pd/Au. The analysis of the previous results is... -
RF-muSR in the gas phase: the muoniated ethyl radical
Radio-frequency muon spin resonance is an exceptional technique for studying free radicals, but it has not been applied to study radicals in the gas phase. In a previous... -
Dextran based "smart" microgels for controlled drug delivery
Controlled drug delivery must be supported by specialized multi-task devices for addressing a predetermined therapeutic dose in controlled physiological conditions. Combining...
