Research Interests

  • Daniel Price with fireballDr Price has an interest in many areas of natural science and is a keen proponent for increased public understanding of science. He performs many demonstration lectures every year.

After the completion of a PhD at the University of Sheffield, he has held positions at the University of East Anglia, University of Edinburgh, Southampton University, and at the Institut de Chimie de la Matière Condensée de Bordeaux (ICMCB), before taking his present position at the University of Glasgow. His research experience and activities have always been associated with the synthesis and characterisation of materials for magnetic, electronic, or optical applications.

In recent years, his research has largely focused on synthetic and structural characterisation of magnetic materials. Here a key part of successful synthesis are application many techniques that allow the formation of crystalline samples. Consequently, X-ray diffraction studies are pivotal to the structural characterisation and form a central part of his research interests. Magnetic characterisation is achieved by a combination of techniques including; SQUID magnetometry, neutron diffraction and muon spin rotation. In general, Dr Price’s interests are in controlling solid-state structures, in order to allow or optimise particular functional properties. In his magnetic materials low-dimensional and spin-frustrated magnetic behaviour are frequently observed, and ultimately a better understanding these novel and cooperative phase behaviours ranks highly in his ambitions.

More details are available on Dr Price’s personal Research Pages.
