Neutron scattering investigation of Lithium diffusion mechanism in the Li-ion...
The compound LixCoO2 has attracted lots of attention in the recent years because of its application as cathodes in Li-ion batteries. The diffusion pathway of Li- ions within a... -
Structural Distortions in the Spin Ladder Compounds Ba2CuTe1-xWxO6
Ba2CuTeO6 has garnered considerable interest as the combination of stacking sequence and Cu2+ displacements lead to a magnetic geometry that reproduce the effects of a spin... -
Structural Investigations of Mixed-anion Argyrodites
Argyrodites exhibit promising thermoelectric (TE) properties but a structural transition causes cracking of ingots on cooling to ambient temperature, introducing problems for... -
Magnetoelastic Coupling and for Competing Ground States in (Ba1-xAx)Fe2As2 (A...
Unconventional superconductivity has recently been suggested in the new class of iron-based superconductors in which unusual gap symmetries have been observed together with... -
Completing the magnetic ordering-crystal structure phase diagram of supercond...
We would like to complete the phase diagram by measuring one more sample of Fe1+xTe for x = 14 %, which represents a point at one extreme of the phase diagram. The simple binary... -
GLUTATHIONE-MEDIATED RESISTANCE TO Pt- AND Pd-BASED ANTICANCER DRUGS PROBED B...
The present study aims at using simultaneous INS and Raman scattering experiments to elucidate resistance to cisplatin-like Pt(II)- and Pd(II)-based anticancer agents via... -
Elucidating sodium diffusion mechanisms in layered sodium transition metal ox...
Affordable large-scale energy storage systems with improved capacity are crucial to a sustainable energy future, and the great availability of Na in sea water makes Na-ion... -
Dy3Mg2Sb3O14 - a 2D Kagome lattice with Classical Ising Spins
Dy3Mg2Sb3O14 forms a layered structure with magnetic Dy3+ ions forming sheets of corner sharing triangles, called a Kagome lattice. The Ising magnetic moments are constrained to... -
Electrostatic interaction effects in orientationally disordered phases
Plastic phases are characterized by a positional ordering of the molecular centers of mass while molecules are rotating in a hindered way. Therefore these phases are... -
Characterisation of on-top hydrogen on fuel cell catalysts.
A key step in a fuel cell is the dissociation of hydrogen gas to provide protons and electrons by a catalyst. For low temperature fuel cells carbon black supported... -
The high pressure structures of ammonium fluoride
Ammonium fluoride is an ionic H-bonded analogue of ice. Its behaviour is thus of interest as a comparator for ice. This proposal is for beamtime to make the first neutron study... -
Crystalline electric field levels in a rare-earth triangular-lattice antiferr...
The rare-earth frustrated magnets with dipole-octupole doublet trigger intense research interests due to their exotic quantum phases including spin fragmentation. The newly... -
Tracking spring-type motions in inorganic helices
Materials with helical and double helical structure motifs are prone to display fascinating spring-type behaviour, i.e. a shallow energy surface along the spring-axis in which...
