Acquisition and Development of a Synchrotron Compatible Growth and Characterization Facility

蒙大拿州立大学主要研究仪器项目授予蒙大拿州立大学的这一奖项是为了表彰可移动磁性薄膜生长设备的仪器开发，该设备旨在连接到X射线同步加速器光束线，用于对生长的磁性多层膜进行先进的原位表征。该生长设施将具有化学气相沉积能力和热沉积能力，化学气相沉积能力将用于生长性能优异的磁性半导体和半金属铁磁体(HMF)，热沉积能力将用于生长单元素磁性薄膜。它还将通过与国际和平研究所的研究合作，供其他研究人员使用。该项目将为创建和研究可能对自旋电子学爆炸性增长产生巨大影响的现有现象和新现象提供强大的手段，以了解、量化和控制界面行为。该仪器开发项目将帮助培养仪器科学和前沿研究方面的研究生和博士后。该奖项由主要研究仪器项目授予蒙大拿州立大学，用于表彰可移动磁性薄膜生长设备的仪器开发，该设备旨在连接到X射线同步加速器光束线，用于对生长的磁性多层膜进行先进的原位表征。该生长设施将具有化学气相沉积能力和热沉积能力，化学气相沉积能力将用于生长性能优异的磁性半导体和半金属铁磁体(HMF)，热沉积能力将用于生长单元素磁性薄膜。它还将通过与国际和平研究所的研究合作，供其他研究人员使用。该项目将为创建和研究可能对自旋电子学爆炸性增长产生巨大影响的现有现象和新现象提供强大的手段，以了解、量化和控制界面行为。该仪器开发项目将帮助培养仪器科学和前沿研究方面的研究生和博士后。

This award from the Major Research Instrumentation program to Montana State University is for instrument development of a movable magnetic films-growth facility designed to be connected to an X-ray synchrotron beamline for advanced in-situ characterization of as grown magnetic multilayers. The growth facility will have both chemical vapor deposition capability that will grow superior performance magnetic semiconductors and half-metallic ferromagnets (HMF) and a thermal deposition capability for growth of single-element magnetic films. It will also be available for use by other researchers through research collaboration with the PI. This project will provide a powerful means for understanding, quantify and control interfacial behavior for the creation and study of established and new phenomena that potentially have tremendous impact on the explosive growth of spintronics. This instrument development project will help train graduate students and postdocs in instrument science and forefront research.This award from the Major Research Instrumentation program to Montana State University is for instrument development of a movable magnetic films-growth facility designed to be connected to an X-ray synchrotron beamline for advanced in-situ characterization of as grown magnetic multilayers.
