| Description | The simultaneous in-situ structural and electrical measurements allowed us to better understand processes like nanocatalyst exsolution on the surface of the perovskites or transport mechanisms in alkaline earth hydrides, for developing energy materials. |
| Exploitation Route | The development of an in situ measurement rig is currently helping performing similar experiments on various materials and can be further improved for more complex experiments |
| Sectors | Chemicals,Energy |
| Description | It is an early stage for these results to produce a non-academic impact, but an increase in number of applications and neutron diffraction experiments on perovskite materials capable of exsolution has been observed |

| PI Contribution | Collaborating with instrument engineers at ISIS for design, execution, commisioning and testing of and in-situ rig capable of simultaneous sample characterisation using neutron diffraction and electrical measurements in various atmospheres |
| Collaborator Contribution | The instrument engineers at ISIS were advising in all execution steps of this in situ testing rig |
| Impact | The development of this testing capability allowed us to perform very valuable diffraction studies on nanocatalyst exsolution from perovskites and H/D exchange reactions on alkaline earth hydrides. A couple of manuscripts are in preparation here based on the results obtained in these studies. |
