title: National Survey of the Japanese Elderly, 1996
title: Version 1

description: This survey is the fourth wave of a study conducted jointly by the Institute of Gerontology at the University of Michigan (IoG) and the Tokyo Metropolitan Institute of Gerontology (TMIG). Previous waves of data were collected in November of 1987 (ICPSR 6842), November of 1990 (ICPSR 3407), and November of 1993 (ICPSR 4145). The survey was designed to create a panel dataset for use in cross-cultural analyses of aging between the United States and Japan. This is the first, and to date only, panel study designed for cross-cultural analyses on aging. Therefore, this survey represents a unique contribution to the gerontological archives for cross-cultural aging. The survey was designed to match as closely as feasible the Wave I instrument, however it had to allow for dynamic growth in areas of interest. The Wave I instrument was designed to be at least partially comparable to many pre-existing surveys of the aged. Specifically it incorporates components from the American's Changing Lives surveys conducted by Jim House et al. of the Institute for Social Research (ISR) at the University of Michigan and the 1984 National Health Interview Survey Supplement on Aging.

title: Layer ordering and its effects on proximity induced magnetisation in Ir/CoFeTaB/Pt or Pt/CoFeTaB/Ir trilayer's for spintroinc devices.

description: Interface effects, including proximity induced magnetisation (PIM), play an import role in many spintronic devices employing heavy metal/ferromagnetic/heavy metal structures. The choice of elements is important, however, layer ordering is often a secondary priority. Polarised neutron reflectometry will be used to characterise the magnetic depth profile of Pt/CoFeTaB/Ir films along with its structural inverse, Ir/CoFeTaB/Pt, to better understand requirements for PIM and to explain the significant magnetic differences observed between such inverted samples, leading to improved layer order optimisation for future spintronic devices.

title: Frustration-stabilised high-field skyrmions

description: Magnetic skyrmions are nanometric topological vortex-like spin textures that appear in select materials and have lately attracted a lot of attention due to their numerous potential applications. Having recently demonstrated that muSR is a powerful method for studying skyrmion dynamics, we propose to use it to investigate the dynamics in the newly-discovered skyrmion phase in Gd2PdSi3, the first centrosymmetric skyrmion material. As skyrmions in Gd2PdSi3 arise from geometrical frustration, rather than from noncentrosymmetric Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions, we expect a unique dynamical signature. This Rapid Access proposal will help elucidate the novel skyrmion-stabilising mechanism in Gd2PdSi3 and will complement our planned first-ever NMR study of skyrmions. As the first proposal by this PI it will kick-start his research, as he only recently moved to Durham on a short contract.

title: Structural studies of iridium hydrides

description: Oil is currently the primary raw material for all the carbon containing chemicals we take for granted and which are necessary for our modern life: pharmaceuticals, plastics, food additives, pesticides etc. Today the more unreactive molecules in oil, alkanes, must first be converted into more reactive molecules, alkenes, in high temperature processes that are energetically demanding and go with low selectivity. These alkenes are then one of the main starting materials in the making of organic molecules and we need to learn how to convert alkanes to alkenes in a milder and more selective way. Using various iridium compounds, especially those containing an iridium hydrogen bond, alkanes can be transformed into alkenes in a mild way. This project is about studying the catalysts, the iridium hydrides, to learn more about what controls their structure and in the long run their reactivity.

title: Pressure Tuning of a Sodium Battery Material

description: The most important scientific problems to solve for the future is how to efficiently convert and store clean energy. To realize all-solid-state devices and high-performance sodium batteries we need to obtain an improved understanding and control of ion diffusion on the atomic scale. In this proposal we aim to study a novel enhancement of ion diffusion rate in a Na-battery material by the use of external pressure. Initial studies reveal a strong effect on the onset temperature for Na-ion diffusion with pressure. We have from neutron diffraction directly linked the onset of diffusion to a subtle structural phase transition. We estimate that with 3% lattice strains it is possible to improve the diffusion rate in the present compound with several orders of magnitude, which opens the door for improvements in device performance as well as the re-evaluation of previously discarded materials.

title: Self-assemble behaviour of surfactant in alcohol/water co-solvents

description: The self-assembly behavior of surfactant in alcohol/water co-solvent is quite different from aqueous solution, and has got less attention. Nevertheless, these systems have great potential for a wide range of applications, such as aircraft anti-icing fluid and oil field fracturing fluid in low temperature zone. To deeply understand the self-assembly behavior of surfactant in alcohol/water co-solvent and optimize the conditions for applications, we propose to use SANS to study the morphology and aggregation structures of the erucyl dimethyl amidopropyl betaine in different alcohol/water systems at low temperature.

title: Interplay between spin, charge and orbital degrees of freedom in a new family of manganite perovskites RMn3O6

description: The aim of this proposal is to perform the first neutron diffraction study of the magnetic structures of recently discovered A-site columnar-ordered manganite perovskites RMn3O6. These perovskites extend the rare-earth manganites beyond the 1:1 RMnO3 and 1:7 RMn7O12 families, and exhibit unusual layer-type charge and orbital-ordered patterns. The presence of multiple magnetic phase transitions in some members of the series reflects complex interactions between the magnetic and electronic subsystems, and correspondingly a rich phenomenology is expected. Hence, these  manganites provide a new avenue to explore the interplay between charge, spin, and orbital degrees of freedom.

title: Structural and Magnetic Properties of New Pb2FeTeOx Phases

description: Pb2FeMO6 phases are of interest as potential multiferroics. We have prepared a new non-centrosymmetric pyrochlore-derived structure containing anion vacancy ordering (composition Pb2FeTeO6.5). Treatment of this under high pressure leads to the formation of a new double perovskite Pb2FeTeO6. Both materials show magnetic ordering transitions. Variable temperature neutron powder diffraction data is necessary for detailed study of the crystal structures (particularly oxide anion vacancies in the pyrochlore phase and displacements associated with perovskite tilts) and the low temperature spin ordered structures, plus any magnetostrictions arising from spin-lattice coupling.

title: Assembly of supramolecular nanotubes into tubisome structures from self-assembled cyclic-peptide polymer conjugates

description: Cyclic peptide-polymer conjugates can readily self-assembly into long nanotubes, and are being extensively studied for biomedical applications. Recently, we have conjugated a hydrophobic chain onto one side of the cyclic peptide (CP), and a hydrophilic chain on the other. Using SANS, we discovered that these structures self-assembled into large Janus-like structures, coined "tubisomes," with a hydrophobic core surrounded by CP-nanotubes and a hydrophilic shell. These make excellent candidates as trans-membrane pores, and drug/gene delivery vehicles. In the proposed study we will look at the pH induced self-assembly of these structures, where the hydrophobic shell consists of a pH-responsive polymer, as changing the pH will induce assemble/disassemble. By studying this closely we can pin down the fundamental parameters needed to control the assembly process to make bespoke structures.

title: Investigation of the magnetic phase of the charge transfer compound CuTCNQ

description: CuTCNQ (TCNQ = 7,7,8,8-Tetracyanoquinodimethane) is material which exhibits electrical resistive switching at 300K and has two structural forms (I and II), each with very different electrical and magnetic properties. We have used muon spin rotation/relaxation measurements to study the magnetic phase transition in CuTCNQ-II below 10K and we have evidence to suggest that the material is a 3D Heisenberg ferromagnet or antiferromagnet, but with an ordering temperature of about 10.8K. We propose to complete our study of this magnetic transition, which will include the dynamical behaviour of the magnetism in the vicinity of the ordering temperature, and also investigate the possibility of muon motion in CuTCNQ-I at high temperatures. We also propose to study the muon spin relaxation in CuTCNQ-I in order to obtain insight into the two muon implantation sites we have observed in CuTCNQ-I.

title: Doping dependence of the lattice and magnetic structures in La(2-x)Sr(x)CuIrO6

description: Double-perovskite iridates attract attention as they combine 5d and 3d magnetism, where spin-orbit coupling plays a significant role in determining a magnetic ground states. Recently, we investigated the double-perovskite compound La2CuIrO6 and demonstrated the presence of a small triclinic distortion of the lattice using neutron diffraction. We also refined the magnetic structure that turned out to be canted AFM with both Cu2+ and Ir4+ ions carry a magnetic moment, which results in 4 magnetic sublattices. Another recently synthesized stoichiometric end-member compound, LaSrCuIrO6 with Ir5+, was reported to possess a higher tetragonal symmetry. The available results suggest that La(2-x)Sr(x)CuIrO6 possess a rich phase diagram with at least two structural phase transitions. The goal of the present proposal is to understand the influence of doping effects on the magnetic structure.

title: Neutron reflectivity studies of the interaction of Amphotericin B with biomimetic lipid monolayers

description: Bio-surfactants that can be harvested from micro-organisms are of particular interest, because these can potentially be harvested in high yield and at low cost. In this category of bio-surfactants, are the rhamnolipids that are produced by various forms of bacteria. Rhamnolipids not only show very low-toxicity and are bio-degradable, they can now be produced with high efficiency allowing for economical production and industrial scalability. These characteristics, together with their proven anti-fungal activity, makes them very promising candidates for use in manufacture of active drug delivery systems for drugs like amphotericin B. In the studies proposed here, we aim to carry out neutron reflectivity experiments to determine the structure of the AmB-containing monolayers formed at the air-water interface by rhamnolipid(/sterol) with and without AmB.

title: Inelastic Neutron Scattering study on the new member in pyrovanadate family: Fe2V2O7

description: We have synthesized and characterized a new member, namely Fe2V2O7 in the family of 3d transition metal pyrovanadate M2V2O7 (M =Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu). M2V2O7 exist with a great variety of crystal structures, which are reflected in the richness of their physical properties. In this family transition metal ion plays a crucial role in presence of partially filled (for M2+) and half filled (for V5+) d orbitals; and it is of interest to intensify studies in this direction with different transition metal. Fe2V2O7 crystallizes in monoclinic structure with P21/c space group and it shows two anomalies in the magnetization data below 25 K. Here, we are proposing here to study temperature dependent spin dynamics of Fe2V2O7 by performing inelastic neutron scattering on MERLIN to understand the nature, strength and magnetic exchange interactions pathways in this new compound.

title: Nuclear and magnetic structural study of multiferroic BaFe2O4

description: BaFe2O4 is a new candidate to the family of magnetoelectric multiferroics, featuring ABW-type zeolite structure with Bb21m symmetry. The lack of space inversion opens the route to ferroelectricity, while weak ferromagnetic behavior is detected below about 950 K making of this compound a promising candidate to room temperature magnetoelectricity. The presence of sizeable coupling of the magnetic and ferroelectric degrees of freedom would make of this material one of the few multiferroics suitable for application, as a consequence we propose to perform a powder neutron diffraction experiment in the 300-1100 K range aimed to thoroughly determine the thermal evolution of both the magnetic and nuclear structures and their fine symmetry properties, whose knowledge is a mandatory requirement in order to unveil the possible presence of magnetoelectric coupling and its microscopic mechanism.

title: Disordered Materials Express: Microstructurally and Compositionally Accurate Models of Kerogen

description: Production of oil and gas from shale resources has revolutionized the energy industry.  However, the physics and chemistry describing fluid flow in shale are fundamentally different from what occurs in conventional reservoirs.  Here we attempt to measure the structure of shale at the small lengths that control the fluid flow process.  If successful, this research should result in better understanding of fluid flow at small length scales and therefore more efficient production of oil and gas from shale.
