X-ray, electron and neutron scattering techniques have been used for the structural characterization of surfaces and embedded morphologies. Several theories have been developed...

We will determine whether a neutron technique called dark field Lamor imaging can provide quantitative information about the spatial distribution of small inhomogeneities in...

This proposal continues our work into surfactant templated films formed from surfactant/polyelectrolyte solutions. Recently we have been studying the encapsulation of...

Nanowires are increasingly being used in life science to interact with living cells, for example as nanometer probes. The interaction between the cell membrane, i.e. a lipid...

There is great interest in scaling up Li-ion batteries for use in electric vehicles, requiring cheap andsafe cathodes. Recently, silicate-based cathodes have been described,...

We have recently observed extraordinary polymorphism on cooling various sodalites under vacuum. Materials undergo a phase transition followed by a fully reversible...

3D data on an 18650 Li-ion Battery Graphite-Silicon Anode Collected using an 810 Ultra X-ray-CT instrument (Zeiss Xradia 810 Ultra, Carl Zeiss., CA, USA).Accelerating tube...

This record addresses inaccuracies in the widely-used GFN-xTB model when it comes to the description of organosilicon compounds. Here, an ab initio reference data set of 10000...

Sampling complex free-energy surfaces is one of the main challenges of modern atomistic simulation methods. The presence of kinetic bottlenecks in such surfaces often renders a...
