Ligand conformation at semiconductor nanoparticle surfaces for high-efficienc...
The efficiency of silicon solar cells is limited to 29%. One possible way of breaking this limit uses a process called singlet fission, converting a high energy photon into two... -
SANS Studies of Novel Internally Stabilised Liposomes
Internally supported liposomes (ISLs) are composed of polymeric spheres enclosed by liposomes. Although very little research has been done on ISLs, understanding their... -
Neutron diffraction characterization of Japanese steel swords fragments
Studying the sword forging techniques, and its evolution with time, is one of the most interesting topics in the analysis of the Japanese blade forging methodology. In that... -
Quantitative mineral phase determination of the core material from two Renais...
We propose to characterize the core material of two Renaissance Statues. The results of this study will provide us with quantitative information on the mixture of material for... -
Structural Phase Characterisation of Iron Stone Objects from the Excavation s...
We propose to determine the mineral phase composition in 15 iron stone samples from the Tall Bazi excavation site in Syria. The results of this investigation will be compared... -
Small angle neutron scattering experiment of a novel pH and temperature sensi...
The aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of different stimuli on a novel iron oxide core shell nanoparticles. The system is composed of a magnetite core with a... -
ToF-ND microstructural imaging for 17th-18th c. European sword blades.
The key objective is mapping the internal microstructure of a series of samples of European sword blades from the 17th-18th c. The samples, which include a full blade and are... -
Conformational behaviour of amphiphilic polymethacrylate-poly(acrylic acid) c...
We intend to use small angle neutron scattering to investigate the conformational behaviour of a range of amphiphilic copolymers comprising a hydrophobic methacrylate segment... -
Test of a high-resolution CCD camera for neutron radiography
We propose to test a high-resolution, light-intensified CCD camera system on INES for neutron radiography. The potential use of such a system on INES for radiographic purposes... -
Non invasive characterization through neutron imaging of ancient Indonesian K...
The keris is the distinctive weapon of Malaysia and Indonesia. It is found in a variety of forms but, typically, it is an elongated dagger or short sword of slender proportions... -
Diffraction 'artifacts' due to shape sie and thickness variation in copper (p...
We poropse to study the effect of postion, varaiation of distance and jaw size on a configuration of two Cu plates on the INES diffractometer in order to obtain informaton on... -
Probing the internal structure of ethyl butyrate containing microemulsions us...
The proposal aims to establish the location of the oil, ethyl butyrate in dodecyldimethylamine-N-oxide (DDAO) microemulsions. Molecular dynamic simulations have proposed that a... -
Surfactant-Controlled Assembly of Amphiphilic Diblock Polythiophenes
Conjugated polythiophenes (PTs) have emerged as a promising class of material in organic solar cells. The device performance depends on the inherently-linked optoelectronic... -

Estimating carbon contents in historical European blades through neutron diff...
Previous studies have attempted to correlate the results of metallography with neutron diffraction studies on the very high-carbon steels used in Oriental blades. Japanese sword... -
Characterization of the phase map of two ancient Japanese blades through neut...
Historical metallurgy is one of the most interesting topics of archaeometry but, in order to have a good level of characterization of artefacts by traditional analytical... -
Investigation of the impact of mechanical twinning on the thermal expansion b...
We request three days of beam-time on POLARIS to investigate the influence of thermally-induced twinning on the thermal expansion behaviour of polycrystalline calcite.... -
Stress gradient investigation of Fe-based materials prepared by Selective Las...
Selective Laser Melting (SLM) has a great industrial potential since it enables, from metal powder beds, producing full density complex monolithic part. The high temperature... -
Probing lateral solvent and ion distributions in patterned pH swellable gels ...
Patterned, swellable hydrogels are finding increasing applications as sensing, optical focussing and actuation elements in Lab-on-a-chip structures because of their property... -
A study of the induced magnetism in Pd-Ni nanoparticles
Induced magnetic order in nominally non-magnetic materials due to the effect of proximity to magnetically ordered materials is a subject of great interest. There has been quite...
