Proton motions in hydrated proton conducting perovskites BaZr_{0.90}A_{0.10}O_{2.95} (A = Y and Sc) have been investigated using quasielastic neutron scattering. The results reveal a localized motion on the ps time scale and with an activation energy of ~10-30 meV, in both materials. The temperature dependence of the total mean square displacement of the protons suggests an onset of this motion at a temperature of about 300 K. Comparison of the QENS results to density functional theory calculations suggests that for both materials this motion can be ascribed to intra-octahedral proton transfers occurring close to a dopant atom. The low activation energy, more than ten times lower than the activation energy for the macroscopic proton conductivity, suggests that this motion is not the rate-limiting process for the long-range proton diffusion, i.e. it is not linked to the two materials significantly different proton conductivities.
We have investigated the dynamics of Na ions in amorphous Na2Si2O5, a potential solid electrolyte material for Na-battery. We have employed quasielastic neutron scattering (QENS) technique in the amorphous Na2Si2O5 from 300 to 748 K to understand the
A relativistic single particle model is used to calculate the inclusive $(e,e)$ reaction from $A=$12, 40, 56, 197, and 208 nuclei in the quasielastic region. We have shown that this model provides a very good description of the available experimental
We have performed quasielastic neutron scattering (QENS) experiments up to 1243 K and ab-initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations to investigate the Na diffusion in various phases of NaAlSiO4 (NASO), namely, low-carnegieite (L-NASO; trigonal), hi
Spin correlations and fluctuations in the 3d-transition-metal-based icosahedral quasicrystal Zn-Fe-Sc have been investigated by neutron scattering using polycrystalline samples. Magnetic diffuse scattering has been observed in the elastic experiment
Helium atom scattering (HAS) is a well established technique for examining the surface structure and dynamics of materials at atomic sized resolution. The HAS technique Helium spin-echo spectroscopy opens up the possibility of compressing the data ac
