Magnetic Resonant X-ray Scattering from Spintronic Materials at Brookhaven National Laboratory

我们在美国布鲁克海文国家同步加速器光源（NSLS）的多层系统的软x射线磁散射研究中获得了光束时间奖。与欧洲设施不同的是，这样的光束时间没有资金来支持前往该设施的旅行。这些实验是我们正在进行的利兹和伊斯兰国之间非常成功的磁散射联合方案的一部分。申请的旅费和生活津贴只允许一个三人小组前往布鲁克海文进行为期五周的旅行，以便每天24小时进行实验。这项提议的一个独特之处在于，我们打算在样品进行散射研究的同时对样品进行电测量，这将使我们对样品的物理和磁性微观结构之间的关系有更深入的了解，这将通过x射线测量揭示，以及它们的自旋相关电子功能特性。

We have been awarded beamtime for soft-xray magnetic scattering studies of multilayer systems at the National Synchrotron Light Source (NSLS) at Brookhaven in the USA. Unlike European Facilities such beamtime does not come with money to support travel to the facility. The experiments form part of our ongoing and highly successful joint programme on magnetic scattering between Leeds and ISIS. The grant request is for travel and subsistence funds only to allow a team of three people to travel to Brookhaven for five weeklong periods in order to operate the experiment 24 hours a day. A unique aspect of this proposal is that we intend to make electrical measurements of our samples whilst they are undergoing the scattering studies / this will lead to a deeper understanding of the relationship between the physical and magnetic microstructures of our samples, which will be revealed by the x-ray measurements, and their spin-dependent electronic functional properties.
