IN-SITU NEUTRON DIFFRACTION STUDIES OF METAL-HYDRIDE HYDROGEN STORAGE MATERIALS
Hydrogen storage is considered to be one of the principal technological barriers in the transition towards a hydrogen-based economy. In this proposal, we plan to look at the key... -
Heterogenous reactions between gas-phase hydroxyl radicals and organic films ...
Projected climate change is strongly influenced by clouds. The oxidative processing of pollutants in clouds affects droplet size and reflectivity, important climatic effects.... -
Purothionin binding to model fungal lipid membranes
Purothionins and defensins are basic, amphiphilic, cysteine-rich and low molecular weight plant defence proteins. These proteins are active against a broad range of... -
The structural role of zinc in complex phosphate glasses for new bone cements
A study of zinc containing phosphate glasses for biomedical applications is proposed. The structural role of zinc as a function of composition will be investigated through... -
Surface structure of monolayers formed by novel di- and tri-chain cationic li...
The aim of the present study is to the determine, using specular neutron reflection (SNR), the structure of layers formed by novel tri-chain cationic lipids in combination with... -
Spin orientations in epitaxial Mn2Au films for antiferromagnetic spintronics
Mn2Au has garnered a lot of interest as a promising material for the new field of antiferromagnetic spintronics. The symmetry of the crystal and magnetic order, already... -
Control of defect structure in microwave-synthesised complex nitridometallate...
Lithium transition metal nitrides Li3-xMxN (M=Co, Ni and Cu) have been reported previously as promising anodes for Li-ion batteries. The most promising compound in this family... -
Determining the membrane binding structure of drug-delivery polymers
This proposal seeks to investigate a class of synthetic membrane-active biopolymers which have been developed as potential drug-delivery agents. These polymers have shown pH-... -
Intra-membrane lipid flipping in model lipid membranes
Lipid compositional variation across the cell's membranes as well as asymmetry between two contiguous monolayers in the same membrane are critical for alive and healthy cells.... -
The quest for fully hydrogen-ordered ice XIV
Water ice displays a remarkably complex phase diagram containing pairs of hydrogen-ordered / disordered phases. Ice XII is a hydrogen-disordered phase and ice XIV is its... -
From small compositional changes to large distortions - a new relaxor energy-...
[BiZn2/3NbO3]x-[BaTiO3]1-x for x up to roughly 0.2, known as BZN-BT is a complex made from one of the most studied materials in the world, BaTiO3 (BT), doped with Bismuth Zinc... -
Studying the Hydration Properties of Green Hybrid Nanocomposite Cellulose Films
We are investigating innovative hybrid organic/inorganic multilayered films comprising alternated layers of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) and Gibbsite platelets (GW). CNCs are... -
Magnetic order in the quantum critical phase of Sr3Ru2O7
Many novel electronic ground states form in close proximity to quantum critical points (QCPs), that is, the point where a continuous phase transition occurs at zero temperature.... -

Structure of Zwitterionic Surfactants of Varying Headgroup: Interaction with ...
Zwitterionics (here, alkyldimethylammonium carboxybetaines) are widely used in applications which require "mildness", e g cosmetics and isolation of membrane proteins, although... -
First experiment with a pulsed field magnet at ISIS or how to break the 15T b...
We propose to use a pulsed magnet system tried and tested at several neutron and synchrotron facilities in conjunction with the new high flux diffractometer WISH to perform the... -
Comparison of Adsorbed Surfactant Behaviour under Poiseuille Flow to Cone-Pla...
As our understanding of surfactant interfacial behaviour grows it is important to assess the applicability of the results to industrial applications. In these cases there are... -
Magnetic phase diagram of single crystal multiferroic NaFeGe2O6
Multiferroics of spin origin, for which magnetic long-range order and electric polarization occur simultaneously, have attracted considerable interest. The strong coupling... -
