Proposal to determine the origin of the effects of electric fields on the muo...
In the previous proposal we examined the ALC response of components of the complex dielectric under externally applied electric fields (EEF). We saw a shift in the asymmetry at... -
Muon charactersiation of dielectric insulation system under applied electric ...
We plan to measure the electric field distribution in epoxy resin based dielectrics close to breakdown using muons to detect the free charge carriers that may contribute to... -
Hydrogen-bond dynamics of water in C-A-S-H: insights into the hydration prope...
The manufacture of every ton of cement emits approximately 0.8 tons of CO2 into the atmosphere, comprising 5-7% of the global human-made CO2 emissions. A low pH - low CO2 class... -
Neutronic Studies to Assess New Materials for Optimized Inverted Geometry Spe...
We request 7 days on VESUVIO to evaluate the neutronic performance of several materials used in inverted-geometry neutron spectrometers. In particular, we are interested in... -
Surface modification in heteropolymer blends.
In recent years we have had considerable success with the surface modification of amorphous and crystalline thermal plastic polymers using multi-end functional additives. In... -
SANS study of the effect of thermal annealing on the morphology of bulk heter...
This projects aims to contribute to a better understanding of the relationship between processing conditions, active layer morphology and device performance in polymer solar... -
Structure evolution of graphitic surface upon oxidation: insights by scanning...
Oxidation of graphitic materials has been studied for more than a century to synthesize materials such as graphene oxide, nanoporous graphene, and to cut or unzip carbon...
