This proposal will develop a core laboratory that brings together the critical research tools for the characterisation of isolated and coupled spins in a well-managed hub: SPIN-Lab. This will be achieve through the upgrade of exiting tools together with the purchase of state-of-the art instruments to replace ageing or oversubscribed facilities. Therefore, we will implement a coherent vision centred on a combination of techniques that is not usually prioritised in a single institution, and that will be unique in the UK. Ultimately SPIN-Lab will be positioned as a leading national centre for magnetism research, supported by a research officer and managed by a board including members from Materials, Physics, Chemistry, Earth Sciences, Life Sciences and Chemical Engineering. The current user base is over 50 investigators, spanning three faculties, at Imperial alone, and we will work closely with London-based institutions via for example the London Centre for Nanotechnology. The facility will be open to external users who will amount to 20% of the usage.Key research tools include: (a) a state-of-the-art SQUID-based Quantum Design Magnetic Properties Measurement System (MPMS-3) that will perform ultra-high sensitivity magnetic measurements in a range of conditions such as under photoexcitation, at high pressure, and in alternating fields. (b) A state-of-the-art continuous wave electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectrometer coupled with a laser. (c) Upgrades to ensure sustainability of existing tools by implementing cryogen-free operation, as well as extending functionality to include ferromagnetic resonance, magnetic force microscopy, solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance and low temperature Hall probe. Our research will initially be applied to the following grand challenges: (1) Engineering novel solutions: Plastic electronics, catalysis, batteries, solar fuels; (2) Health and well-being: Hyperthermia and magnetic sensing; (3) Leading the data revolution: Spintronics and the Maser; (4) Discovery and the natural world: Natural magnetism, photosynthesis, photochemistry.

该提案将开发一个核心实验室，在一个管理良好的中心中汇集用于表征孤立和耦合自旋的关键研究工具：SPIN-Lab。这将通过升级现有工具和购买最先进的仪器来取代老化或超额认购的设施来实现。因此，我们将实施一个以技术组合为中心的连贯愿景，这些技术通常不会在单一机构中优先考虑，这在英国将是独一无二的。最终，SPIN-Lab将被定位为一个领先的国家磁学研究中心，由一名研究官员提供支持，并由一个包括材料、物理、化学、地球科学、生命科学和化学工程成员在内的董事会管理。目前的用户群是50多名研究人员，横跨三个学院，仅在帝国理工学院，我们将通过伦敦纳米技术中心等与伦敦的机构密切合作。该设施将向外部用户开放，其使用量将达到20%。主要研究工具包括：(a)最先进的基于squid的量子设计磁性测量系统（MPMS-3），该系统将在光激发、高压和交变场等一系列条件下进行超高灵敏度的磁性测量。(b)配备激光的最先进的连续波电子顺磁共振光谱仪。(c)通过实施无低温操作进行升级，以确保现有工具的可持续性，并扩展功能，包括铁磁共振、磁力显微镜、固态核磁共振和低温霍尔探头。我们的研究将首先应用于以下重大挑战：(1)工程创新解决方案：塑料电子，催化，电池，太阳能燃料；(2)健康和福祉：热疗和磁传感；(3)引领数据革命：自旋电子学和脉泽；(4)发现与自然世界：自然磁学、光合作用、光化学。
