LixCoO2 is used extensively in portable batteries in laptops and mobile phones, but the scarcity of Li means that alternative materials are required. Structurally related...

The evolution of the crystal structures and magnetic ordering of layered cobalt oxide chalcogenides will be probed as a function of composition. The systems Sr2CoO2Cu2-zSe2 and...

The Mn+1AXn phases, crystalized in hexagonal P63/mmc, have attracted considerable interest for its metallic properties and mechanic properties. In 2013, Liu et al reported that...

Dimensionality plays an important role in determining the anomalous non-Fermi liquid properties in heavy fermion systems. So far most heavy fermion compounds are...

The proposed quasi elastic neutron scattering experiment at ISIS aims at the characterization of the dynamical properties of the series of coordination complexes Pr(BH4)3·nNH3,...

The spin-chain systems with general formula A¿3ABO6, crystallizing in the K4CdCl6 type structure has attracted a lot attention in recent years due to geometrical frustration...

The recent discovery of superconductivity in a series of iron pnictide materials has provided impetus to the field of new materials discovery. Like in the cuprate...

Ethylene glycol is an industrially important alcohol used as anti-freeze. The presence of intra and inter-molecular hydrogen bonding in its liquid and solid state form makes the...

We propose to study the temperature evolution of the spontaneous strain, crystal and magnetic structure of the charge ordered, mixed valence iron silicate ilvaite. In addition,...

We request 4 days on IRIS to study the temperature dependance of the structural dynamics in amorphous sodium-ammonia (Na-NH3). This will be the first investigation of the...

Neutron spin resonance mode is a common feature in different classes of magnetic superconductors; nonetheless, the microscopic origin of the mode is still unclear. In general,...

Water is important in many scientific and technological areas, yet our understanding of this remarkable liquid remains very incomplete. In may cases, it is the properties of...

YbAgGe has an enhanced electronic specific heat coefficient and two magnetic phase transitions at TM1=0.8K and TM2=0.65K. We have grown a series of TbxYb1-xAgGe and YbAgGe...

This is part of a larger experiment which will investigate three related systems which contain copper deficient anti-fluorite-type copper sulfide layers. The overall aim is to...

We seek to explore the dynamics of glass forming systems upon extreme 2D-confinement. These experiments are motivated by preliminary experiments on oligomers and macromolecules...

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...

We will use the high resolution of HRPD and the excellent long d-spacing data available on OSIRIS to investigate the phase transitions in Sr1-xNaxFe2As2 which are associated...

Ammonium carbonates, sensu lato, have relevance to carbon capture schemes and as potential hydrogen storage materials. These compounds occur on Earth as minerals and, since...

This proposal regards studies of the structure and morphology of polymer electrolytes which can be used in Li-batteries. These electrolytes are effectively used in electric...

We request 4 days on IRIS to study the temperature dependance of the structural dynamics in amorphous sodium-ammonia (Na-NH3). This will be the first investigation of the...
