Due to the lower intensity of neutron sources when compared to synchrotron X-rays, it is often assumed that small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) is best suited to the study of equilibrium samples or processes with slow dynamics. However, over the last 10 years, my group (and many others) have shown that along with ‘slow’ processes taking minutes or hours, even fast dynamic processes in soft...
The performance of functional materials central to energy devices, including rechargeable batteries, fuel cells, as well as gas separation and storage technologies, is determined largely by atomic-scale materials structure and dynamic-function relations. Many functional materials undergo structural change during use, for example to accommodate compositional change such as in rechargeable...
