Accommodating water within their pores and ideally fueled by solar energy, organic porous water-splitting materials trigger the process of splitting water molecules via oxidation and reduction reactio

A team of researchers at ILL have used neutron scattering to uncover a key step in the development of life on Earth. Our researchers, along with scientists from the University of Lyon and University G

The weakly coupled planes of Fe ions in the material are pushed closer together under extreme pressure. This results in metallisation but not the loss of all magnetic order as previous measurements ha

During the second reactor cycle in 2020, the ThALES team and SCI/CS at ILL in Grenoble, France commissioned and tested a self-learning algorithm developed by the CAMERA team at Lawrence Berkeley Natio

Magnetic system of new PF1B polarizer The ILL has now implemented the best neutron polariser in the world – it is more compact and cheaper than others because of its size and able to reach nearly 100%

August 2020 Supercapacitors are up-and-coming, energy storage devices, often used to store energy from renewable energy sources like wind turbines where power is intermittent. They combine the best of

Understanding, manipulating and exploiting the intriguing magnetic behaviour of a synthetic crystalline material called yttrium iron garnet (YIG) could open the door to the next, advanced generation o

An “artists view” of how the new material, D-96-7, is created June 2020 The synthesis of stable and cost-effective new materials is paramount for the development of advanced technologies. At the same

The high intensity available on the D20 powder diffractometer allows diffraction studies to be performed as a function of time, temperature, magnetic or electrical field, pressure or gas composition,
