Summary on Grant Application Form |
|
An Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) detector for the Scanning Electron Microscope and a MultiPrep high-precision polishing system to support electron microscopy will be purchased for the the York-JEOL Nanocentre. A 2D x-ray detector will be purchased to upgrade an existing multi-user XRD system housed within the Department of Physics, and an argon glove box will be purchased and located within the Department of Chemistry. The equipment funded through this proposal will enable advances in fundamental understanding of the structure and functionality of materials and will support key EPSRC disciplines including the interdisciplinary capabilities and infrastructure of the York Nanocentre, and specifically build on the strengths of York in condensed matter physics, inorganic materials and materials for energy. Research will be supported in a number of applications including, battery technology, aerospace, automotive, nuclear, solar cells, and biomedical.
