Abstract:

This thesis contains a study of improvement and application of strain measurement technique using neutron diffraction. A dedicated neutron strain scanner - ENGIN, funded by Ee. has been developed at ISIS. It has two radial collimators, allowing for the first time, measurements taken simultaneously at two orthogonal directions; uses Pawley refinement permitting both whole pattern and individual peak profile analysis and its positioner allow's specimens weighing 250 kg to be placed with an accuracy of 100 um. Strain measurement using neutron diffraction has been investigated under two extreme ci

Abstract:

This thesis reports on a series of neutron diffraction measurements on ices in the medium-pressure range of the phase diagram in order to address several outstanding issues. The structure of ice II under its thermodynamic conditions of stability is unknown. Previous studies have used helium gas as the pressurising medium, which is included within the ice structure. Argon gas has been used in this work as the pressure medium, and the detailed structure of ice II is presented and discussed. Similarly, the structure of ice V under its conditions of stability is established for the first time by t

Abstract:

Gas hydrates (clathrates) are elevated-pressure (P) and low-temperature (T) solid phases in which gas molecule guests are physically incorporated into hydrogen-bonded, cage-like ice host frameworks. Natural clathrates have been found worldwide in permafrost and in ocean floor sediments, as well as in the outer solar system (comets, Mars, satellites of the gas giant planets). Diffraction patterns have been collected of gas hydrates at various methane and ethane compositions by preparing samples in an ex situ gas hydrate synthesis apparatus, and CO₂ gas hydrates were prepared in situ to look at

Abstract:

I have studied two magnetic properties of superconductors using different neutron scattering techniques. Due to their magnetic moment and lack of electrical charge, neutrons can provide an extremely sensitive probe into magnetism on a small scale. Unusual magnetic structures have previously been observed in the non-superconducting PrBa<sub>2</sub>Cu<sub>3</sub>O<sub>6</sub>+<sub>δ</sub>, in particular showing a coupling between the rare-earth and the Cu-O<sub>2</sub> planes. For comparison, I have used elastic neutron scattering to measure the temperature dependent magnetic structure of the hi

Abstract:

Previous use of the diffraction technique as a means of characterizing microstructure in multiphase steels has been generally limited to measurements of retained austenite. Other phases, specifically martensite, have not been examined in complex microstructures since there exists peak overlap with ferrite. This research looks at using neutron diffraction as a means to characterize martensite in a multiphase steel microstructure, thus providing a more complete characterization tool.<br>Three low carbon steels, comprised of a dual-phase, ferrite-martensite microstructure, were used in this study

Abstract:

When ice is compressed alongside a gas, crystalline 'host - guest' inclusion compounds known as gas clathrate hydrates form. These compounds are of interest not only for their environmental and possible technological impact as gas storage and separation materials, but also for their ability to probe networks not readily adopted by the pure `host' water molecules, and to study the interactions between water and gas molecules. Despite the pressure dependent crystal structures being fully determined for a large variety of `guest' gas species there is still relatively little known about the crysta

Abstract:

Neutron diffraction is a powerful technique that allows to probe the structure of disordered phases across a variety of length scales. However, due to the inherent complexity of these disordered hases, the analysis of the information contained in the experimental data is not obvious. In this work, a few alternative methods are presented that allow to make the most of the neutron diffraction measurements as well as the molecular configurations obtained from molecular dynamics simulations or data modelling. They mainly consist in a Bayesian approach to fit the molecular structures measured with

Abstract:

An in-depth analysis of neutron powder-diffraction data from a sample of ice VII is presented. This study involved an attempt to extract information about the detailed nature of atomic disorder present in the water molecule, information only accessible via neutron techniques. The resulting difficulties lead to an exploration of the fundamental limits of powder-diffraction. This investigation highlighted a need to extend the maximum accessible pressure for single-crystal techniques that, for structural neutron-diffraction, is currently limited to 25kbars.

Large amounts of money are being applied to the construction of the next generation of spallation sources for neutron scattering. Neutron powder diffraction instruments will be an important element of these facilities and the incorporation of detectors into these instruments with a high neutron capture efficiency is desirable. A new detector design named the Flexible Embedded Fiber Detector (FEFD) has been developed and tested for this thesis. This detector is based on wavelength shifting fibers embedded in a zinc-sulfide lithium-fluoride based scintillator. The virtue of this design is that t

Zeolites are microcrystalline aluminosilicate materials that have intricate channel systems, into which molecules can be adsorbed. Important as industrial materials, they are used in gas separations, sorption and catalysis where the property of 'molecular sieving' is exhibited toward guest species. Thus, understanding the interactions between guest species and the host zeolite frameworks is central to predicting the syntheses and applications of zeolites, and this requires detailed structural information about the guest/zeolite complexes.

The key finding was that the degree of structural modification is dependent on the relative size and polarising power of the two cation species.
