This proposal will primarily utilize newly constructed muon surface beam lines and the beta-decay NMR facility at TRIUMF to: 1) investigate the role inhomogeneity plays in the mechanism of high-temperature superconductivity, 2) determine the relevance of newly discovered magnetism in the heavily overdoped regime of high-temperature superconductors, 3) characterize and optimize magnetic interactions in a series of novel coordination polymers that make use of cyanometallate building blocks, 4) investigate the pairing symmetry of iron-based superconductors via measurements in the vortex state, 5) investigate the role of magnetic flux penetration in RF losses of superconducting Nb cavities used for charged-particle accelerators, and 6) investigate surface magnetism in gold nanostructures. In addition we will continue the development of a hyperpolarized xenon gas NMR method as an exquisitely senstive probe of surface properties with the potential to discover novel behaviour that has practical device applications.

该提案将主要利用新建造的μ子表面束线和TRIUMF的β衰变NMR设施：1）研究不均匀性在高温超导机制中的作用，2）确定新发现的磁性在高温超导体的重度过掺杂区域中的相关性，3）表征和优化一系列利用氰基金属酸盐结构单元的新型配位聚合物中的磁相互作用，4）通过在涡旋状态下的测量研究铁基超导体的配对对称性，5）研究磁通量穿透在用于带电粒子加速器的超导Nb腔的RF损耗中的作用，（6）研究金纳米结构的表面磁性。此外，我们将继续开发超极化氙气NMR方法，作为表面性质的灵敏探针，有可能发现具有实际设备应用的新行为。
