Title: X-ray magnetic circular dichroism measurements using an X-ray phase retarder on the BM25 A-SpLine beamline at the ESRF

Abstract

Circularly polarized X-rays produced by a diamond X-ray phase retarder of thickness 0.5 mm in the Laue transmission configuration have been used for recording X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) on the bending-magnet beamline BM25A (SpLine) at the ESRF. Field reversal and helicity reversal techniques have been used to carry out the measurements. The performance of the experimental set-up has been demonstrated by recording XMCD in the energy range from 7 to 11 keV.

The beamline ID32 at the ESRF for soft X-ray high energy resolution resonant inelastic X-ray scattering and polarisation dependent X-ray absorption spectroscopy

Journal Article Brookes, N. B. ; Yakhou-Harris, F. ; Kummer, K. ; ... - Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research. Section A, Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment

Here, the ID32 Soft X-ray Beamline line is an ESRF upgrade beamline for X-ray absorption (XAS) and Resonant Inelastic X-ray Scattering (RIXS) spectroscopic studies. It was opened to Users in October 2014 and provides polarised soft X-rays in the 400–1600 eV energy range. It has two branches: One branch has been designed for X-ray magnetic dichroism experiments, both linear (XMLD) and circular (XMCD), with high sensitivity, reproducibility, flexibility, user friendliness and the capability for fast energy scanning. The X-ray beam is available in two experimental areas, one with a dedicated superconducting high field magnet and a sample preparation facility, themore »« less

Use of a synchronization card for XMCD measurements at the XMaS Beamline

Journal Article Bouchenoire, L ; Brown, S D ; Thompson, P B. J. ; ... - AIP Conference Proceedings

X-ray Magnetic Circular Dichroism (XMCD) spectra from a 5 {mu}m polycrystalline Gd foil were measured in transmission across the Gd L{sub 2,3} edges using the Multipurpose Unit for Synchronisation, Sequencing and Triggering (MUSST) card developed at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF). The circularly polarized x-rays were produced by a diamond phase-plate and their helicity was rapidly reversed through the use of a piezo driven device. The signal measured for each helicity was recorded by the MUSST card synchronized to the helicity reversal. The results are compared to those obtained using an analogue lock-in technique.

Magnetic spectroscopy at high pressures using x-ray magnetic circular dichroism.

Journal Article Haskel, D ; Tseng, Y C ; Souza-Neto, N M ; ... - High Pressure Res.

The imbalance in the electronic density of states between spin-up and spin-down electrons characteristic of ferro(ferri)-magnetic materials gives rise to X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) in the absorption of circularly polarized X-rays with opposite helicity. These dichroic effects are largest near element-selective atomic resonances and can be used to probe ferro(ferri)-magnetic ordering with element- and electronic orbital-selectivity. We describe recent developments at the Advanced Photon Source that allow measurements of XMCD in a diamond anvil cell. We discuss the challenges associated with these measurements as well as their potential to further our understanding of complex magnetic materials.

Construction and development of a time-resolved x-ray magnetic circular dichroism-photoelectron emission microscopy system using femtosecond laser pulses at BL25SU SPring-8

Journal Article Fukumoto, Keiki ; Matsushita, Tomohiro ; Osawa, Hitoshi ; ... - Review of Scientific Instruments

A femtosecond pulsed laser system has been installed at the BL25SU soft x-ray beamline at SPring-8 for time-resolved pump-probe experiments with synchronization of the laser pulses to the circularly polarized x-ray pulses. There are four different apparatuses situated at the beamline; for photoemission spectroscopy, two-dimensional display photoelectron diffraction, x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) with electromagnetic coils, and photoelectron emission microscopy (PEEM). All four can be used for time-resolved experiments, and preliminary investigations have been carried out using the PEEM apparatus to observe magnetization dynamics in combination with XMCD. In this article, we describe the details of the stroboscopic pump-probe XMCD-PEEMmore »« less

Soft x-ray magnetic circular dichroism studies at the advanced light source

Conference Young, A T ; Brewer, M A ; Christiansen, J ; ...

Applications of circularly polarized x-rays are becoming increasingly important. A major use is in x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD). With this technique, the magnetic, chemical and physical properties of systems which contain magnetic or paramagnetic atoms can be studied. The Advanced Light Source (ALS), a 3rd generation synchrotron light source, has several beamlines which are operating or are under construction which employ XMCD. This paper highlights some of these applications, including studies of magnetic materials, where XMCD can determine the element specific magnetic moments in systems having giant moments or colossal magnetoresistance. Investigations of biomolecules have also been performed, studyingmore »« less
