Vorwort<br />

Die Nutzung von Großgeräten zur Erforschung der kondensierten Materie hat in den<br />

letzten Jahren zu einer Vielzahl von herausragenden <strong>Forschung</strong>sergebnissen geführt.<br />

Experimente <strong>mit</strong> Neutronen, Synchrotron- und Ionenstrahlung bieten komplementäre<br />

Möglichkeiten, die Eigenschaften der Materie in all ihren Facetten auszuleuchten. Die<br />

<strong>SNI</strong>2006 stellt ein gemeinsames Forum für die Präsentation neuester Erkenntnisse,<br />

für den Ideenaustausch und die weitere Vernetzung der Methoden dar. Eine spezielle<br />

Veranstaltung widmet sich der allgemeinverständlichen Darstellung der <strong>Forschung</strong> für<br />

die Öffentlichkeit.<br />

Die <strong>Tagung</strong> findet auf Initiative der Kommission ” Erforschung kondensierter Materie<br />

<strong>mit</strong> Großgeräten“ (KEKM), der Dachorganisation der Ko<strong>mit</strong>ees für <strong>Forschung</strong><br />

<strong>mit</strong> Neutronen (KFN), Synchrotronstrahlung (KFS) und nuklearen Sonden und Ionenstrahlen<br />

(KFSI) statt. Sie knüpft an frühere BMBF-Statusseminare (Helgoland 1986,<br />

Kloster Seeon 1997) an und soll die Komplementarität der Methoden deutlich machen<br />

und den wissenschaftlichen Austausch beflügeln. Die <strong>SNI</strong>2006 bietet ein Forum für ein<br />

breites Spektrum von Disziplinen und deren Vernetzung. Folgende Themenbereiche<br />

werden abgedeckt:<br />

Weiche Materie Magnetismus<br />

Nanstrukturen und Grenzflächen Biologische Systeme und Medizin<br />

Mikroskopie und Tomographie Materialien/Werkstoffe<br />

Struktur und Dynamik Methoden und Instrumentierung<br />

Chemische Prozesse und Phasenübergänge Materie unter extremen Bedingungen<br />

Teilchen und Kerne<br />

Ein Höhepunkt der <strong>Tagung</strong> wird ein Senatsempfang am Abend des 05.10.2006 im<br />

Hamburger Rathaus sein, bei dem der Hamburger Senator für Wissenschaft und Gesundheit,<br />

Jörg Dräger und Schleswig-Holsteins Minister für Wissenschaft, Wirtschaft<br />

und Verkehr Dietrich Austermann sowie eine/e VertreterIn des BMBF Grußworte sprechen<br />

werden. Die wichtige Rolle der <strong>Forschung</strong> <strong>mit</strong> Synchrotronstrahlung, Neutronen<br />

und Ionenstrahlen an Großgeräten wird anschließend in einem populärwissenschaftlichen<br />

Vortrag beispielhaft von Helmut Dosch aufgezeigt werden. Im Anschluss daran<br />

laden der Senat der Stadt Hamburg und die <strong>SNI</strong>2006 zu einem Buffet und geselligem<br />

Zusammensein ein.<br />

Wie der Zufall will, findet die <strong>SNI</strong>2006 exakt 20 Jahre nach dem ersten nationalen<br />

Treffen der Pioniere auf Helgoland statt. Mit rund 500 erwarteten Teilnehmern wird<br />

die <strong>SNI</strong>2006 die bisher wohl größte nationale wissenschaftliche <strong>Tagung</strong> dieses wachsenden<br />

<strong>Forschung</strong>sgebiets werden. Die Organisatoren begrüßen Sie hier in Hamburg<br />

und wünschen Ihnen aufregenden Diskussionen, viele neuen Ideen, interessante neuen<br />

Kollaborationspartner und vor allem viel Spaß.<br />

Willkommen in Hamburg!<br />

Magnetische Schichtsysteme: tiefe Einblicke <strong>mit</strong> polarisierter Neutronenreflexion<br />

und resonanter magnetischer Röntgenstreuung<br />

Hartmut Zabel 1<br />

1 Lehrstuhl für Experimentalphysik/Festkörperphysik, Ruhr-Universität Bochum, D-<br />

44780 Bochum<br />

Künstliche magnetische Stapelschichten sowie laterale magnetische Anordnungen haben<br />

in den letzten Jahren völlig neue Möglichkeiten eröffnet, Spinstrukturen und Spintransport<br />

auf der Nanometerskala zu untersuchen, zu manipulieren und für gezielte<br />

Anwendungen Maß zu schneidern. Dabei spielt die Grenzfläche zwischen ferromagnetischen<br />

und paramagnetischen, antiferromagnetischen, ferroelektrischen, halbleitenden<br />

oder supraleitenden Schichten eine herausragende Rolle. Beispielhaft ist die Austauschasymmetrie,<br />

die beim Wachstum von ferromagnetischen Schichten auf antiferromagnetischen<br />

Substraten beobachtet wird. Hier führt die Austauschwechselwirkung<br />

an der Grenzfläche sowohl zu einer Verschiebung als auch zu einer Verbreiterung der<br />

ferromagnetischen Hysterese. Bei Reduzierung der lateralen Dimension durch lithographische<br />

Methoden kann man zusätzlich auf die ferromagnetischen und antiferromagnetischen<br />

Domänengrößen Einfluss zu nehmen. Mit polarisierter Neutronenreflexion im<br />

diffusen nicht-spekulären Bereich kann die Spinunordnung an den inneren Grenzflächen<br />

und die Domänenbildung während der Ummagnetisierung beobachtet werden, während<br />

resonante magnetische Röntgenstreuung elementspezifisch die Bestimmung der magnetischen<br />

Hysterese sowohl in der ferro- wie auch in der antiferromagnetischen Schicht erlaubt.<br />

Die Kombination dieser beiden Methoden hat inzwischen zu einer weitgehenden<br />

Aufklärung der Grenzflächenprozesse geführt, die fast fünfzig Jahre lang die Magnetiker<br />

plagte. Ähnlich kompliziert ist die Situation der Heusler-Legierungsschichten, die<br />

wegen ihrer theoretisch vorausgesagten hundertprozentigen Spinpolarisation als ferromagnetische<br />

Elektrode in Spinventilen besonders geeignet wären. Jedoch ist die hohe<br />

Polarisation an die geordnete L21-Struktur geknüpft, die in Grenzflächennähe zu Tunnelbarrieren<br />

nur schwer realisiert werden kann. Zur Optimierung der Polarisation muss<br />

unabhängig das chemische, strukturelle und magnetische Profil der Heuslerschichten als<br />

Funktion von Wachstumsparametern und Schichtdicken charakterisiert werden. Dies<br />

gelingt nur durch die Kombination von polarisierter Neutronenreflexion und resonanter<br />

magnetischer Röntgenstreuung. In diesem Vortrag werden die Streumethoden kurz<br />

vorgestellt und an Hand von aktuellen Beispielen zu magnetischen Heteroschichten<br />

diskutiert.<br />

Diese Arbeiten werden dankenswerterweise durch die DFG (SFB 491) and das BMBF<br />

(05KS4PCA and 03ZA6BC1) unterstützt.

Structure and Dynamics of Undercooled Metallic Melts<br />

Andreas Meyer 1<br />

1 <strong>Deutsche</strong>s Zentrum für Luft und Raumfahrt, Institut für Raumsimulation, 51170 Köln<br />

We investigate the atomic motion in multicomponent melts on a Ni-, Zr-, Ti- and Albasis<br />

with quasielastic neutron scattering in order to clarify the microscopic transport<br />

mechanisms. The high-resolution energy and momentum information emerging from<br />

quasielastic neutron scattering experiments allows to study the interplay between structure,<br />

viscous flow and atomic diffusion. Our results reveal non-trivial mechanisms of<br />

mass transport in these systems. However, in spite of a pronounced chemical short<br />

range order on intermediate length scales, the mass transport in these systems is dominated<br />

by packing effects like in other hard-sphere like liquids.<br />

In a recent experiment we succeeded to process liquid droplets of 6-8 mm in diameter<br />

in an electromagnetic levitation device on the neutron time-of-flight spectrometer<br />

ToF-ToF of the FRM-II [1]. This containerless processing of the samples not only<br />

gives access to experiments on high temperature and chemically reactive liquids, but<br />

also allows for undercooling the samples several 100 K below their liquidus. The undercooling<br />

and the corresponding slowing down of dynamics allows for a stringent test<br />

of theoretical descriptions of dynamics in liquid matter.<br />

Zone-plate based Microspectroscopy with soft x-rays<br />

Rainer Fink 1<br />

1 Physikalische Chemie II, Univ. Erlangen, Egerlandstraße 3, 91058 Erlangen<br />

With the advance in the fabrication of micro zone plates focusing of x-rays down to<br />

about 20 nm has been demonstrated [1]. Taking advantage of the high brilliance of<br />

3 rd generation synchrotron sources, high-resolution spectroscopy can be combined with<br />

high spatial resolution. Scanning-transmission microspectroscopy offers many different<br />

applications with lateral resolutions well below 50 nm routinely in an easy-to use experiment.<br />

The operation of the microscope in either He atmosphere or in vacuum allows<br />

the investigation of thin solid films and liquid films in wet cells. The BMBF funded<br />

PolLux project, which is presently under commissioning at the Swiss Light Source<br />

(SLS, Paul Scherrer Institut, Villigen) will be a microspectroscopy facility which offers<br />

a wide variety of experimental possibilities in the photon energy range from 260 to<br />

1100 eV. PolLux is an interferometrically controlled STXM based on the ALS polymer<br />

STXM design [2]. We make particular use of the high stability of the stored electron<br />

beam at the SLS, which is a prerequisite for high spatial resolution. Steering of the<br />

beam will even allow one to perform XMCD experiments with fast switching of the<br />

helicity or time-resolved experiments (although the instrument is installed at a bending<br />

magnet beamline). Several applications of STXM shall be discussed in this contribution.<br />

Emphasis will be lying on the investigation of so-called soft matter samples,<br />

which were prepared as thin films either by dip- or spin coating. The materials used<br />

range from functionalized π-conjugated molecules, molecular magnets, liquid crystal<br />

films, and block copolymers. The near-edge x-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS)<br />

is used to explore the structure-dependent electronic structure of nanostructured selforganized<br />

films, which in some cases form small nanosized crystals. Other examples to<br />

be discussed will be biologically relevant samples (e.g. human hair, insect eyes), which<br />

are sometimes difficult to image in routinely used transmission electron microscopy.<br />

Present STXM highlights concern the investigation of the magnetization dynamics in<br />

magnetic nanostructures using time-resolved NEXAFS. In these systems, STXM is superior<br />

compared to commonly used XPEEM studies [3]. This project is funded by the<br />

BMBF under contract 05 KS4WE1/6.<br />

Nukleare Sonden und Ionenstrahlen für die Zukunft<br />

Tilman Butz 1<br />

Leipzig<br />

Nukleare Sonden, das sind instabile Kerne und Teilchen, werden für die Erforschung<br />

der Struktur und Dynamik in kondensierter Materie gerne dann eingesetzt, wenn es<br />

um höchste Empfindlichkeit geht. Der Einsatz basiert auf der Detektion der e<strong>mit</strong>tierten<br />

Teilchen und γ-Strahlung. Strahlen von stabilen Ionen werden sowohl für die Analytik<br />

als auch für die Materialbearbeitung und auch für strahlenbiologische Fragestellungen<br />

eingesetzt. Daneben gibt es auch Einrichtungen wie ISOLDE/CERN, die radioaktive<br />

Ionenstrahlen (RIB) erzeugen.<br />

In dem vorliegenden Beitrag wird über neueste Entwicklungen auf den folgenden Teilgebieten<br />

berichtet:<br />

a) neue Quellen: RIB am CERN für gestörte Winkelkorrelation (PAC), Emissions-<br />

Channeling, Photolumineszenz, Deep Level Transient Spectroscopy, Tracerdiffusion;<br />

Synchrotron-basierte PAC (SRPAC)unter Ausnutzung der Polarisation; gepulste Positronenquellen;<br />

low-energy Myonen am PSI;<br />

b) neue Detektoren: Szintillatoren <strong>mit</strong> exzellenter Energie- und Zeitauflösung; Szintillatoren<br />

für SRPAC bei 60 KeV; ortsauflösende Detektoren für Emissions-Channeling;<br />

c) neue Spektrometer: voll-digitale PAC-Spectrometer, geeignet unter anderem für<br />

” gestreckte Kaskaden“ <strong>mit</strong> mehreren prompten γ-Quanten;<br />

d) neue Datenanalyseverfahren.

Applications of Synchrotron Radiation, Neutrons and Ions in Engineering<br />

Material Science<br />

Anke Rita Pyzalla 1<br />

dorf, Germany<br />

Neutron diffraction techniques have become an established technique in engineering<br />

material science. Neutron small angle scattering and neutron diffraction are valuable<br />

tools for material characterization and the development of new materials. In addition<br />

neutron diffraction, in particular residual stress analyses and neutron tomography<br />

reveal unique information due to allowing a non-destructive testing of components.<br />

Neutron diffraction and tomography thus can play an important role for the optimization<br />

of manufacturing processes.<br />

The availability of synchrotron radiation has strongly expanded the spectrum of techniques<br />

available for investigating material microstructures, their development and also<br />

their degradation under thermal and mechanical loading. A multitude of different<br />

approaches e.g. using diffraction methods for the analyses of residual stresses give<br />

complementary information to those obtained by neutron diffraction. The high brilliance<br />

at modern synchrotron radiation sources further provides new insight in-situ<br />

into very localized and time-dependent phenomena, e.g. into the growth of individual<br />

crystallites in a polycrystalline material and the nucleation and into the development<br />

of voids in materials subjected to loading at high temperatures.<br />

In addition to several examples showing the impact of investigations using neutrons<br />

and synchrotron radiation on material and component development in engineering<br />

material science, an example will be presented which highlights the complementarity<br />

of the three probes (neutrons, synchrotron radiation and ions) in an investigation of<br />

an ancient nanomaterial.

Struktur und Dynamik biologischer Materialien<br />

Martin Müller 1<br />

1 Institut für Experimentelle und Angewandte Physik, Universität Kiel, 24098 Kiel<br />

Ein Merkmal nahezu aller biologischen Materialien ist ihre hierarchische Strukturierung<br />

über viele Längenskalen. Auf mesoskopischer Ebene findet sich fast immer eine<br />

Verbundstruktur <strong>mit</strong> kristallinen Regionen, die in eine weichere, ungeordnete Matrix<br />

eingebettet sind. Diese Matrix wiederum ist typischerweise für Wasser zugänglich. Der<br />

Wassergehalt beeinflußt erheblich die mechanischen Eigenschaften von Biomaterialien;<br />

im speziellen Fall von Holz ist das von erheblicher technischer Bedeutung.<br />

Wir untersuchen die strukturellen Veränderungen biologischer Materialien wie Zellulosefasern,<br />

Seide und Holz in situ unter mechanischer Belastung <strong>mit</strong> Mikro–Röntgenstrahlen<br />

an Synchrotronstrahlungsquellen. Mit einer neuartigen Probenumgebung<br />

können wir den Wassergehalt der Proben variieren. Unsere Ergebnisse erlauben es,<br />

erstmals mikroskopische Modelle für die unterschiedlichen Verformungsmechanismen<br />

trockener und feuchter Biomaterialien zu entwickeln. Hierbei spielt die weiche Matrix<br />

eine entscheidende Rolle.<br />

Um lokale Information über Moleküle in ungeordneten Bereichen zu gewinnen, wenden<br />

wir Neutronenspektroskopie an. Da<strong>mit</strong> messen wir u. a. Anregungen adsorbierten<br />

Wassers in orientierten Zellulosefasern, die Informationenen über die Anisotropie ihrer<br />

Umgebung liefern. Experimente an selektiv deuterierten Seidenfasern wurden erfolgreich<br />

<strong>mit</strong> Zugversuchen kombiniert. Die erhaltenen Phononenspektren bei verschiedenen<br />

Dehnungen geben einen direkten Hinweis darauf, daß die ungeordneten Moleküle<br />

einen großen Teil der makroskopischen Dehnung ermöglichen.<br />

Die vorgestellten Ergebnisse an Biomaterialien sind ein Beispiel dafür, wie durch die<br />

Komplementarität verschiedener Sonden ein umfassendes Modell der Struktur und Eigenschaften<br />

komplexer Proben erhalten werden kann.

In-situ-Röntgenbeugungsuntersuchungen epitaktischer Kristallwachstumsprozesse<br />

Wolfgang Braun 1 , Klaus H. Ploog 1<br />

1 Paul-Drude-Institut für Festkörperelektronik, Berlin<br />

Die Röntgenbeugung ist ein nahezu ideales Werkzeug, um Mechanismen des Kristallwachstums<br />

zu studieren. Dabei spielt die geringe Wechselwirkung des Röntgenstrahls<br />

<strong>mit</strong> Materie eine entscheidende Rolle, erlaubt sie doch einerseits eine zerstörungsfreie<br />

Messung, andererseits oft die Vernachlässigung von Mehrfachstreuung in der<br />

mathematischen Analyse. Zur Untersuchung dünner Schichten und Oberflächen sind<br />

wir jedoch auf Synchrotronstrahlung angewiesen, um trotz der geringen Wechselwirkung<br />

ausreichende Signalstärken zu erreichen. Die Kombination einer Molekularstrahl-<br />

Epitaxie(MBE-)anlage <strong>mit</strong> einem Diffraktometer ist besonders viel versprechend, da<br />

in der MBE Schichten auf einkristallinen Substraten direkt aus den konstituierenden<br />

Elementen aufgebaut werden. Dadurch wird die Physik des Kristallwachstumsprozesses<br />

so einfach wie möglich gehalten.<br />

Durch die Variation des Einfallswinkels der Röntgenstrahlung kann die Wechselwirkungstiefe<br />

von einigen ˚Angström bis zu vielen Mikrometern verändert werden, was einerseits<br />

extrem oberflächenempfindliche Messungen erlaubt, andererseits eine Analyse<br />

dicker Schichtstapel ermöglicht. Die Röntgenbeugung arbeitet dabei als Frequenzfilter<br />

im Realraum, wodurch Strukturen <strong>mit</strong> unterschiedlichen Korrelationslängen separiert<br />

werden können.<br />

Das Paul-Drude-Institut betreibt ein eigenes Strahlrohr bei BESSY, an dem wechselweise<br />

eine von drei MBE-Anlagen in einem Sechskreis-Diffraktometer betrieben werden<br />

kann. Die Energie des monochromatischen Primärstrahls kann zwischen 6 und 12 keV<br />

variiert werden. Dadurch ergibt sich eine breit angelegte Palette sowohl in der möglichen<br />

Wahl der untersuchten Materialsysteme als auch der anwendbaren Beugungsmethoden.<br />

Wir stellen verschiedene Beispiele vor, so unter anderem die Wachstumskinetik verschiedener<br />

III-V-Halbleiteroberflächen, das Wachstum ferromagnetischen Manganarsenids<br />

auf Galliumarsenid und die Untersuchung des Ordnungszustandes von epitaktischem<br />

Eisensilizid auf GaAs.

Current research at FLASH<br />

Josef Feldhaus 1<br />

1 DESY, Notkestraße 85, D-22607 Hamburg<br />

The free-electron laser at DESY in Hamburg (FLASH) is the first free-electron laser<br />

(FEL) built for the vacuum-ultraviolet (VUV) and soft X-ray region. In the present<br />

configuration the FEL can be tuned to any wavelength between approximately 50 nm<br />

and 13 nm by changing the electron beam energy from approximately 350 MeV to<br />

700 MeV. The FEL has been operated at various wavelengths, the radiation pulses<br />

were characterised in terms of pulse energy, spectral distribution and coherence, and<br />

they have been used for a variety of experiments. Saturated intensities in the 10 -<br />

100 µJ range have been reached with pulse durations of 10 - 50 fs. At these intensities<br />

strong second and third harmonic radiation with some 0.5 % of the main peak has been<br />

observed.<br />

FLASH has started regular user operation in summer 2005. Currently 16 science<br />

projects involving approximately 200 scientists from 11 countries are sharing 20 weeks<br />

of beamtime per year. The remaining time is used for work on the accelerator to improve<br />

and extend the operation of the FEL. In order to make efficient use of the FEL<br />

beam, it can be switched between four experimental stations by movable mirrors. A<br />

synchronised optical laser system is available for pump-probe experiments. Diagnostics<br />

has been implemented to monitor the pulse energy and its timing with respect to the<br />

optical laser. The science projects focus currently on four different areas:<br />

(i) interaction of the ultra-intense FEL pulses with matter, including multiphoton excitation<br />

of atoms, molecules and clusters, creation and characterisaton of dense plasmas,<br />

and imaging of small objects;<br />

(ii) femtosecond time-resolved experiments;<br />

(iii) investigation of extremely dilute samples such as mass selected clusters and highly<br />

charged ions;<br />

(iv) investigation of solids and surfaces.<br />

The current status of the facility is reviewed and examples of first user experiments<br />

are presented.

<strong>Forschung</strong>sneutronenquelle Heinz Maier-Leibnitz (FRM II)<br />

Jürgen Neuhaus 1<br />

1 <strong>Forschung</strong>sneutronenquelle Heinz Maier-Leibnitz, TU München, D-85747 Garching<br />

Starting in May 2005 the FRM II has conducted its first year of routine operation.<br />

Right from the beginning a comprehensive number of beam tube instruments were<br />

available for external users. These instruments are exclusively operated by external<br />

collaboration groups from universities, Max-Planck institutes and large scale facilities.<br />

From the available beam time 2/3 is distributed via a biannual proposal selection<br />

procedure (http://user.frm2.tum.de). Access for European users is provided through<br />

the NMI3 consortium in the FP6 frame work program.<br />

Four different sources (cold, thermal, hot, fast) provide intense neutron beams via<br />

10 horizontal beam tubes to the experimental and neutron guide hall. In addition,<br />

the inclined beam tube SR11 serves as a high intensity positron source with a flux of<br />

moderated positrons up to 5 × 10 8 e + /s.<br />

Today 15 instruments are operational, two more will follow by the end of 2006. With<br />

the installation of the Jülich Center of Neutron Science JCNS the suite of first generation<br />

instruments at the FRM II will be completed especially for applications of SANS,<br />

high resolution spectroscopy and reflectometry.<br />

A major effort is put to improve the user service for sample environment, especially for<br />

extreme conditions. Already available are cooling liquid free cryostats (top loader and<br />

cooling head), high temperature furnaces (2000 ◦ C) and high magnetic fields (15 T at<br />

50 mK on the cold three-axis spectrometer Panda). A cooling liquid free magnet up<br />

to 7.5 T with flexible core (room temperature, 100 mm) is in the commissioning phase.<br />

First high pressure experiments (Paris-Edinburgh cell) could be performed successfully.<br />

Gas pressure cells are under construction. In house developments focus on the very low<br />

temperature equipment in the mK range. First experiments with a 3 He cooling system<br />

have been performed, the de-mixing chamber is in the commissioning phase.

The European X-ray Free-Electron Laser Facility in Hamburg<br />

Massimo Altarelli 1<br />

1 European XFEL Project Team - DESY, Notkestr. 85, 22607 Hamburg<br />

In the quest for more brilliant x-ray sources, a number of projects worldwide are<br />

pursuing the realization of a source of extremely brilliant (peak brilliance ∼ 10 33<br />

photons/s/mm 2 /mrad 2 /0.1 %BW), ultra-short (∼ 100 fs) pulses of spatially coherent<br />

x-rays with wavelengths down to 0.1 nm, and to exploit them for revolutionary scientific<br />

experiments in a variety of disciplines spanning physics, chemistry, materials<br />

science and biology. In the US and in Japan, Free-Electron Lasers (FEL) are being<br />

developed based on room-temperature linear accelerators (Linacs). In Europe, the<br />

superconducting linear accelerator technology developed within the TESLA collaboration,<br />

and successfully applied to produce laser-like radiation in the UV and soft x-ray<br />

range at the FLASH facility at DESY, is adopted for the international facility to be<br />

built in Hamburg. The most important advantage of the superconducting technology<br />

is the possibility to produce up to 30000 pulses per second, instead of 60 or 120 foreseen<br />

in the Japanese and American projects, respectively. In the European facility,<br />

it is foreseen that electron bunches, accelerated to 17.5 GeV in a ∼ 1.7 km long linac,<br />

pass through long (up to 200 m) undulators, where they generate bursts of coherent<br />

x-rays via the process known as SASE (Self-Amplified Spontaneous Emission). Commissioning<br />

with first beam of the facility is expected to take place in 2013. An initial<br />

contingent of 5 photon beamlines with 10 experimental stations is foreseen, where experiments<br />

exploiting the high intensity, the coherence and the time structure of the<br />

new source are going to be performed. A brief illustration of some of the potential experiments<br />

is presented. The possibility to investigate the structure of macromolecules<br />

with atomic resolution without the need for crystallization; the study of molecular<br />

configuration rearrangements during chemical reactions down to the sub-ps scale; the<br />

dynamics of fluctuations on unprecedented time and length scales; the experimental<br />

access to regions of the phase diagram of materials so far only found in astrophysical<br />

environments or under conditions unfavourable for accurate experiments are some of<br />

the examples discussed.

Christina Trautmann 1<br />

1 Gesellschaft für Schwerionenforschung, Planckstr.1, 64291 Darmstadt<br />

The future international accelerator Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR)<br />

will deliver relativistic beams of both stable and unstable heavy nuclei of highest intensities.<br />

The central part of FAIR consists of two superconducting synchrotrons which<br />

will accelerate heavy ion beams up to uranium for experiments at energies up to 35<br />

GeV per nucleon, and for the production of radioactive ion beams and antiprotons.<br />

The existing GSI accelerators UNILAC and SIS will serve as injector. A complex system<br />

of storage rings is equipped with beam cooling, internal targets, and deceleration<br />

facilities. The presentation provides information about the current concept and design<br />

status with special focus on future installations and possibilities for research activities<br />

in atomic physics, material science, biophysics and other interdisciplinary fields.<br />

Neues Licht für mehr Sicht: Röntgenblick im Nanokosmos<br />

Tim Salditt 1 , Christian Fuhse 1 , Christoph Ollinger 1<br />

1 Inst. für Röntgenphysik, Friedrich-Hund-Platz 1, 37077 Göttingen<br />

Unsere Kenntnis der Nanostruktur biologischer und unbelebter Materie hängt entscheidend<br />

von den experimentellen Methoden ab, die uns zur Untersuchung zur Verfügung<br />

stehen. Die Beobachtung funktioneller Mechanismen auf molekularer Ebene erfordert<br />

Methoden <strong>mit</strong> einer räumlichen und zeitlichen Auflösung, die häufig über die heute<br />

vorhandenen Möglichkeiten weit hinausgehen. Unsere Bilder der molekularen Welt<br />

entsprechen daher streckenweise noch eher einem Cartoon.<br />

Die unterschiedlichen Beschränkungen der Sonden hoher räumlicher Auflösung (optisches<br />

Licht, Elektronen, Röntgen, Neutronen, Rasterkraftmikroskopie, Kernspinresonanz)<br />

werden sich auch in Zukunft nicht durch einfache experimentelle oder theoretische<br />

Ansätze aufheben lassen. So kann niemand erwarten, dass Methoden, die z. B.<br />

zur Strukturuntersuchung von Kristallen geeignet sind, sich morgen auf Strukturuntersuchung<br />

biologischer Zellen anwenden lassen. Dennoch haben Entwicklungen gerade<br />

in der Optik gezeigt, dass lange als unvermeidbar geltende Beschränkungen durchaus<br />

durch neue experimentelle Ansätze umgangen werden können.<br />

Dieser Vortrag behandelt die Weiterentwicklung von Quellen, Optik und Untersuchungsmethoden,<br />

um <strong>mit</strong> Röntgenstrahlung zu Abbildungen des Nanokosmos zu gelangen.<br />

Die Vision ” Molekularer Filme“ wird besonders auch durch das XFEL-Projekt<br />

greifbar, <strong>mit</strong> dem in wenigen Jahren in Hamburg Laserstrahlung im Bereich harter<br />

Röntgenstrahlung realisiert werden soll.

Kristalle aus Gas und Wasser: Gashydrate als Herausforderung für Wissenschaft<br />

und Technik<br />

Werner F. Kuhs 1<br />

1 GZG Abt. Kristallographie, Universität Göttingen<br />

Gashydrate sind kristalline Verbindungen aus Wasser und Gas. Riesige Mengen solcher<br />

eisähnlichen methanhaltigen Substanzen lagern im Meeresboden und im arktischen<br />

Permafrost. Ihr geologisches Risikopotenzial bei einer Zersetzung ist erheblich;<br />

vor dem Hintergrund knapper Energievorräte stellen sie aber auch eine wichtige<br />

Kohlenwasserstoff-Ressource dar. Ob und wie Gashydrate als Energiequelle genutzt<br />

werden können steht allerdings noch dahin. Im technischen Bereich sind sie ebenfalls<br />

von großer Bedeutung; viele hundert Millionen Euro werden jedes Jahr ausgegeben, um<br />

die Bildung von Gashydraten in Erdöl- und Erdgas-Pipelines zu verhindern. Eine Reduzierung<br />

der genannten Unsicherheiten, Risiken und Kosten kann letztendlich nur über<br />

ein besseres Verständnis des molekularen Geschehens gelingen. Obschon Gashydrate<br />

seid fast 200 Jahren bekannt sind, hat sich ein breites und vertieftes wissenschaftliches<br />

Interesse erst in den letzten 20 Jahren gebildet; von einem wirklichen Verständnis<br />

dieser Substanzen sind wir allerdings noch weit entfernt. Der Vortrag soll wichtige<br />

Ergebnisse aktueller Untersuchungen an Gashydraten greifbar machen und die Bedeutung<br />

der Großforschungseinrichtungen bei der Beantwortung der zahlreichen offenen<br />

Fragen beleuchten. Insbesondere Neutronenstreuexperimente haben hier den Wissenschaftlern<br />

entscheidende Einblicke in die Struktur und Dynamik sowie die Bildungsund<br />

Zersetzungsvorgänge von Gashydraten gewährt.

Mirakel der Mikroskopie <strong>mit</strong> Antimaterie und hochenergetischen Protonen<br />

Günther Dollinger 1 , Christoph Dollinger 2<br />

München, 85748 Garching<br />

” Mikroskopie“ bedeutet nichts anderes als etwas kleines Betrachten“. Ursprünglich<br />

”<br />

war <strong>mit</strong> Mikroskopie“ die optische Abbildung kleiner Gegenstände gemeint, die <strong>mit</strong><br />

”<br />

bloßem Auge nicht beobachtbar sind. Inzwischen wurden aber eine ganze Reihe von<br />

Mikroskopen entwickelt, die Eigenschaften von kleinen Objekten sichtbar machen, die<br />

der optischen Mikroskopie verborgen bleiben. Ziel des Vortrages ist es, zwei neuartige<br />

Mikroskope zu beschreiben, die <strong>mit</strong> hochenergetischen Protonen beziehungsweise <strong>mit</strong><br />

Positronen arbeiten. Protonen sind ionisierte Wasserstoffatome, die <strong>mit</strong> großen Teilchenbeschleunigern<br />

auf hohe Energien beschleunigt werden und die wir zur Abbildung<br />

der Verteilung von Wasserstoff in Mikrostrukturen verwenden. Positronen sind Teilchen,<br />

die wir in unserer Welt selten antreffen. Positronen sind ein Teil dessen, was man<br />

als Antimaterie“ bezeichnet; sie sind die Antiteilchen der Elektronen. Das hat kata-<br />

”<br />

strophale Konsequenzen für die Positronen, wenn sie auf normale Materie geschossen<br />

werden: Wenn ein Positron <strong>mit</strong> den Elektronen der Materie in Kontakt tritt, vernichten<br />

sich das Positron und eines der Elektronen in einem Röntgenblitz innerhalb sehr<br />

kurzer Zeiten. Das interessante ist, dass uns dieser Vernichtungsprozess über atomare<br />

Die Eroberung des Nanokosmos: Von der Grundlagenforschung zu neuen<br />

Technologien<br />

Helmut Dosch 1<br />

1 Max-Planck-Institut für Metallforschung, Stuttgart<br />

Ohne raffinierte High-Tech Materialien geht in den modernen Industriestaaten heute<br />

nichts mehr. Maßgeschneiderte Materialsysteme sind die Grundbausteine für alle modernen<br />

Technologien, angefangen von Information und Kommunikation, Medizin und<br />

Gesundheitswesen, Energie- und Umwelt bis hin zu Mobilität und Transport. Im Alltag<br />

bedienen wir uns von morgens bis abends Spitzenprodukten aus den Denkstuben der<br />

Festkörperforscher und Materialwissenschaftler. Und der Ideenvorrat der Grundlagenforscher<br />

für die Zukunft ist nicht schlecht, er reicht von Einzelelektronen-Transistoren,<br />

organischen Lasern, Quanten- und Lichtcomputern, magnetischer Elektronik, die <strong>mit</strong><br />

dem Elektronenspin arbeitet, Datenspeichermedien in Stecknadelkopf-Größe, staubkorn-kleinen<br />

Chips ( ” smart dust“) bis hin zu neuen superharten Materialien, die Stahl<br />

weich wie Butter aussehen lassen.<br />

Diese Zukunftsvisionen lassen sich nur verwirklichen, wenn wir die analytischen Technologien<br />

bereitstellen, <strong>mit</strong> denen man die neuen Strukturen, Phänomene und Funktionen<br />

im Nanokosmos <strong>mit</strong> hoher Präzision ertasten kann. Den Synchotronstrahlungs-,<br />

Neutronen- und Ionenquellen kommt hier eine Schlüsselrolle zu, da sie eine zerstörungsfreie<br />

dreidimensionale Analyse der Nanostrukturen unter realistischen Umwelt- und<br />

Technologiebedingungen bzw. hochpräzise Nanostrukturierung ermöglichen. Revolutionäre<br />

neue Einblicke in den Nanokosmos lassen neue Röntgen- und Neutronenquellen<br />

erwarten, welche von Linearbeschleunigern gespeist werden. Mit dem Europäischen<br />

Röntgenlaser X-FEL wird es bespielsweise erstmals möglich werden, direkt zu beobachten,<br />

wie chemische Bindungen entstehen und brechen, wie Medikamente wirken und<br />

Nanomaschinen funktionieren.<br />

Der Vortrag entführt Sie in einer allgemeinverständlichen Sprache in eine bislang<br />

verborgene, unsichtbare Dimension des Nanokosmos.

1 FRM-II, Munich and Physics E21, Munich – 2 Institut für Radiochemie, München<br />

The research reactor FRM-II hosts two facilities for neutron imaging offering several<br />

different spectra and radiations for different imaging methods.<br />

The beam tube of the ANTARES facility faces the cold source and offers standard neutron<br />

radiography as well as computed tomography with very high spatial resolution.<br />

Using a Cd filter, the epithermal part of the spectrum can be used for better penetration.<br />

A B4C filter blocks nearly all cold to epithermal neutrons. With a gamma scintillation<br />

screen, the gamma radiation e<strong>mit</strong>ted from the reactor vessel and beam nozzle can be<br />

used for high-energy gamma imaging. Several pin hole apertures can be used for phase<br />

contrast imaging. Additional switchable lead filters and a monocrystalline Bismuth<br />

filter serve as gamma filters to suppress the remaining gamma background that is still<br />

detected by the neutron scintillation screen, a polycrytalline Bismuth filter can shift<br />

the spectrum to cold neutrons around 6˚A.<br />

When the neutron shutter is closed, a 300 kV X-ray tube can be rotated into the beam<br />

close to the neurton shutter, rendering an X-ray beam with virtually the same geometry<br />

as the neutron beam. X-ray and neutron images can be superimposed without a<br />

registering process.<br />

The NECTAR facility is the only neutron imaging facility world-wide situated at a<br />

beam tube with a uranium converter plate inside the reactor vessel delivering an unmoderated<br />

fission spectrum of fast neutrons. Thermal neutrons are suppressed with Cd<br />

filters, fast neutron radiography and tomography can be performed on thick samples.<br />

The talk will describe the setup of the facilities and show examples for each imaging<br />

method available.<br />

X-ray microscopy is a powerful imaging technique with many applications in materials,<br />

environmental and life sciences. Among many scientific questions in life sciences, the<br />

cell nucleus which is a vital and complex organelle is still a mystery. How the DNA<br />

it contains and its associated proteins are arranged and packaged to fit within this<br />

approx. 10 micron diameter organelle is unknown. The normal cellular contingent of<br />

DNA is 105-fold longer than the nuclear diameter. Some DNA compaction (6-fold)<br />

can be accounted for by its wrapping around nucleosomes. The nucleosomal fiber<br />

is itself probably folded to yield a thicker fiber of 30 nm thickness, providing 7-fold<br />

more compaction. How this “30 nm fiber” is folded to achieve the further necessary<br />

compaction is unknown. Other questions of packaging concern how much “free” space<br />

for diffusion is available in the nucleus.<br />

The interaction of x-rays is element specific, therefore, x-ray nano-tomography can be<br />

used to quantify the packing density of organic material. However, different proteins<br />

or molecular structures cannot be distinguished directly in x-ray microscope images.<br />

This problem is solved by the availability of specific fluorescent probes detectable by<br />

fluorescence microscopy. Thus the two imaging modalities are complementary. Since<br />

fluorescence and x-ray microscopy per<strong>mit</strong> analysis of whole cells, it is possible to investigate<br />

the same cell in both microscopes. These correlative studies are ideally suited<br />

to x-ray microscopy because of its ability to image cells in 3D. We expect to develop a<br />

widely applicable technique that, as applied to nuclear structure, will yield significant<br />

new insights.<br />

3D x-ray microscopy - pioneered at BESSY has found numerous applications worldwide.<br />

To further improve 3D x-ray imaging towards sub-10 nm spatial resolution and<br />

to increase the usable photon energy range by phase contrast methods, progress has to<br />

be made in x-ray optics, instrumentation and theory. In the talk, the current status<br />

and future aspects of x-ray microscopy at 3rd generation electron storage rings and<br />

the upcoming Free Electron Lasers with their fs-pulses will be discussed.

With the availability of high flux beamlines at third-generation synchrotron radiation<br />

sources spectromicroscopy has developed into one of the most promising techniques.<br />

Combining high-brilliance synchrotron radiation with a parallel imaging LEEM (low<br />

energy electron microscope) or PEEM (photoemission electron microscope) allows a<br />

comprehensive characterization of surfaces, adsorbates, and ultrathin films. One of the<br />

most challenging projects in this field is the SMART [1] (Spectro-Microscope with<br />

Aberration correction for Resolution and Transmission enhancement), aiming at a lateral<br />

resolution of 2 nm and an energy resolution of 100 meV which can only be achieved<br />

by aberration correction and energy filtering. Regarding aberration correction pioneering<br />

work has been done: the tetrode mirror [2] is the first and only working aberration<br />

corrector which simultaneously compensates for both, the spherical and chromatic aberrations<br />

of the electron lens system. The quality of our magnetic OMEGA filter - a<br />

second-order aberration-corrected energy filter - is demonstrated by the absolute energy<br />

resolution of 100 meV at a pass energy of 15 keV, yielding in an unusual resolving<br />

power of 150.000. Utilizing different sources (linearly or circularly polarized x-rays,<br />

UV-light, electron gun, etc.) the SMART excels as a versatile instrument with a variety<br />

of contrast mechanisms by imaging photoe<strong>mit</strong>ted (XPEEM, UV-PEEM) and reflected<br />

electrons (LEEM, MEM). Thus it enables the spatially resolved study of morphology,<br />

chemical distribution, electronic state, molecular orientation, magnetization, work<br />

function, structural properties, atomic steps, etc. Within seconds the instrument can be<br />

switched from microscopy to two further methods [3]: (a) laterally resolved spectroscopy<br />

from small object areas with the size of the lateral resolution (nano-XPS, nano-AES,<br />

nano-NEXAFS, etc.) and (b) laterally resolved and energy filtered imaging of angular<br />

distributions: nano-PED (Photoelectron diffraction), Fermi surface/valence band<br />

mapping, LEED (low energy electron diffraction), etc. This variety of complementary<br />

probing tools enables a comprehensive characterization of, e.g., deposited nano-objects,<br />

nano-structured surfaces, and due to the possibility of real-time observation of processes<br />

like crystal growth, chemical surface reactions, and surface phase transitions.<br />

First experiments on the growth properties of organic thin films, their dependence on<br />

the substrate, and the internal structure of microcrystallites of organic molecules show<br />

the potential of the instrument and will be briefly presented in the talk.<br />

Mit dem Rasterionenmikroskop SNAKE (Supraleitendes Nanoskop für angewandte<br />

kernphysikalische Experimente) am Münchener 14 MV Tandembeschleuniger können<br />

Ionenstrahlen auf einen Durchmesser von weniger als einem Mikrometer fokussiert werden.<br />

Mikroschlitze beschneiden den Strahl und präparieren so ein Objekt. Dieses wird<br />

<strong>mit</strong>tels einer supraleitenden Multipollinse verkleinert in die Fokalebene abgebildet. Die<br />

Strahlposition dort kann <strong>mit</strong>tels einer elektrostatischen Ablenkeinheit variiert werden.<br />

Da für Zellbestrahlungsexperimente die Kontrolle der applizierten Energiedosis essentiell<br />

ist, wurde hierzu eine Einzelionenpräparation realisiert. Mittels eines Choppers<br />

wird der Strahl elektrostatisch so weit abgelenkt, dass kein Ion mehr die Fokalebene<br />

und so<strong>mit</strong> die Zellprobe erreicht, sobald diese <strong>mit</strong> der gewünschten Anzahl von Ionen<br />

bestrahlt wurde. Der hierfür nötige Ionennachweis geschieht in Transmissionsgeometrie<br />

hinter der senkrecht montierten Zellprobe <strong>mit</strong> einem Szintilationsdetektor. Durch<br />

die Kopplung der Strahlablenkung und der Einzelionenpräparation ist es möglich die<br />

Zellprobe in beliebigen geometrischen Mustern zu bestrahlen. Ebenso ist die gezielte<br />

Bestrahlung einzelner Zellen oder Zellkerne möglich.<br />

Der derzeitige Gegenstand biologischer Studien ist die Dynamik von <strong>mit</strong>telbar oder<br />

un<strong>mit</strong>telbar an der DNA Reparatur beteiligten Proteinen oder Proteinmodifikationen.<br />

Zellproben wurden zu verschiedenen Zeitpunkten nach der Bestrahlung fixiert und<br />

der Doppelstrangbruchmarker γ–H2AX sowie das Protein 53BP1 <strong>mit</strong>tels Immunofluoreszenztechniken<br />

angefärbt. Als Antwort auf die durch Ionenbestrahlung induzierten<br />

Doppelstrangbrüche akkumulieren diese beiden Faktoren an den Schadensorten, sie<br />

bilden sogenante Foci. Die Abweichung dieser Foci vom bestrahlten Muster korrelliert<br />

<strong>mit</strong> der Bewegung des geschädigten Chromatins. Unsere Daten sind <strong>mit</strong> einer<br />

Diffusionsbewegung verträglich. Weitergehende Studien zur Abhängigkeit der Diffusionskonstante<br />

von der Schädigungsdichte und des aktuellen Zellzyklus der Zellen sind in<br />

Bearbeitung. Die zeitliche Änderung der Focigröße der betrachteten Reparaturfaktoren<br />

zeigt ein komplexes Verhalten. Einem anfänglichen Anstieg der Focigröße bis etwa zwei<br />

Stunden nach Bestrahlung folgt ein steiler Abfall <strong>mit</strong> anschließendem Plateau.

Inelastic X-ray scattering from phonons: status and perspectives<br />

Michael Krisch 1<br />

1 European Synchrotron Radiation Facility, B.P. 220, F-38043 Grenoble Cedex, France<br />

Inelastic x-ray scattering (IXS) with meV energy resolution has become a powerful<br />

spectroscopic tool in the study of phonon dispersion in condensed matter. The most<br />

important aspects distinguishing IXS from the well-established coherent inelastic neutron<br />

scattering (INS) techniques are the absence of kinematic li<strong>mit</strong>ations and the possibility<br />

to study very small sample quantities (down to 10 −5 mm 3 ). This has opened<br />

up new possibilities in research fields ranging from biology to geophysics. The aim of<br />

the contribution is to illustrate the present capabilities of IXS and to discuss future<br />

perspectives.

Wasser in neuem Licht — Röntgenspektroskopie liefert neue Erkenntnisse<br />

zur Nahordnung in Wasser<br />

Philippe Wernet 1<br />

1 BESSY, Albert-Einstein-Strasse 15, D-12489 Berlin<br />

So gewöhnlich flüssiges Wasser auch erscheinen mag so außergewöhnlich sind doch seine<br />

Eigenschaften. Ein fluktuierendes Netzwerk aus Wasserstoffbrückenbindungen (WBB)<br />

verknüpft die außergewöhnlich mobilen Wassermoleküle und bestimmt seine Struktur<br />

und seine Eigenschaften. Da WBB aber permanent brechen und neu geformt werden,<br />

ist die Struktur flüssigen Wassers äußerst unzugänglich und bis heute umstritten.<br />

Uns gelang kürzlich ein neuer Einblick in die Nahordnung von Wasser <strong>mit</strong> Hilfe Röntgenspektroskopischer<br />

Verfahren [1-4]. Die Anwendung von Synchrotronstrahlung <strong>mit</strong><br />

Energien zwischen 500 und 10000 eV und der Nachweis von Elektronen bzw. Photonen<br />

ermöglichte es, Wasser <strong>mit</strong> Informationstiefen zwischen 1 ˚A und 1 mm zu untersuchen.<br />

Einblicke in die Struktur von Wasser wurden aus Absorptionsspektroskopie <strong>mit</strong> weicher<br />

[1] und Raman Streuung <strong>mit</strong> harter Röntgenstrahlung [3] gewonnen. Diese elementspezifischen,<br />

symmetrie-sensitiven, lokalen und ultra-schnellen Methoden geben Aufschluss<br />

über die Stärke und die Anzahl der WBB eines Moleküls zu seinen nächsten Nachbarn.<br />

So konnten wir die Nahordnung in flüssigem Wasser aus Vergleichen <strong>mit</strong> bekannten<br />

Modellsystemen nämlich der Oberfläche und dem Innern von Eis er<strong>mit</strong>teln [1]. Danach<br />

bildet die Mehrzahl der Moleküle lediglich 2 starke WBB aus, eine auf der Sauerstoffund<br />

eine auf der Wasserstoffseite. Die Moleküle in flüssigem Wasser ordnen sich also in<br />

Ringen und Ketten und nicht, wie bisher angenommen und vergleichbar dem Innern von<br />

Eis, tetraedrisch an. Unser asymmetrisches Modell steht in krassem Widerspruch zum<br />

allgemein akzeptierten Wissen. Bei genauerer Betrachtung stellt sich jedoch heraus,<br />

dass dieses Wissen auf molekulardynamischen Simulationen basiert und dass unsere<br />

neuen Erkenntnisse im Einklang <strong>mit</strong> etablierten experimentellen Ergebnissen aus der<br />

Neutronen- und Röntgenstreuung sind [5].<br />

In diesem Beitrag werden die Methoden eingeführt, die Erkenntnisse werden dargestellt<br />

und <strong>mit</strong> Ergebnissen aus der Neutronen- und Röntgenstreuung und <strong>mit</strong> molekulardynamischen<br />

Simulationen verglichen. Untersuchungen zu Eis, zu flüssigem Wasser bei<br />

Raumtemperatur [1], nahe des Siedepunktes [2] und bis in den überkritischen Bereich<br />

[4] werden vorgestellt. Ein Ausblick führt zu neuesten Anstrengungen zur Untersuchung<br />

der Dynamik in Wasser wobei ultra-kurze Laserpulse verwendet werden, um spezifische<br />

Anregungen zu erzeugen deren Auswirkungen auf die Struktur dann stroboskopisch <strong>mit</strong><br />

ultra-kurzen Röntgenpulsen abgefragt werden.<br />

We report inelastic X-ray scattering measurements of the atomic collective excitations<br />

of an early transition metal, namely liquid titanium at T=2020 K. The data show well<br />

defined sound excitations with a low damping constant comparable to the damping observed<br />

in liquid alkaline metals. Calculations of the spectrum of density fluctuations as<br />

a function of the excitation wave number based on Götzes self-consistent mode coupling<br />

approach were carried out. The calculations were performed on the knowledge of the<br />

static structure factor and number density of liquid titanium only, no adjustable parameters<br />

were used. A remarkable agreement between the prediction of mode-coupling<br />

theory and experiment is observed.

Combining neutron and helium spin echo: A powerful tool to clarify surface<br />

effects in confined systems<br />

We present a new approach to gain a microscopic understanding of surface contributions<br />

to the dynamics of molecules confined in mesoporous materials. In mesoporous<br />

confinements a large fraction of molecules interacts with the wall of the matrix changing<br />

the overall dynamics significantly [1]. At present, however, the understanding of the<br />

surface contribution is very li<strong>mit</strong>ed and almost exclusively based on volume measurements.<br />

In our approach we combine neutron spin-echo spectroscopy (NSE) to measure<br />

the diffusion of molecules confined in mesoporous matrices with increasing pore size<br />

and helium spin-echo spectroscopy (HeSE) [2,3] to measure the diffusion of molecules<br />

adsorbed on surfaces which are structurally similar to the walls of the confining matrices.<br />

Both techniques work at typical diffusional ps to ns time scales and on molecular<br />

lenth scales. Using additionally state-of-the-art molecular dynamics (MD) simulations<br />

we get a detailed microscopic picture of the surface diffusion.<br />

As a prototype study for our approach we have measured the diffusion of benzene<br />

molecules on HOPG and exfoliated graphite surfaces as well as in activated carbon<br />

fibers. The dynamics of the benzene molecules on the graphite surfaces differ strongly<br />

from the widely assumed jump diffusion model (Fig. 1). With the aid of MD calculations<br />

we were able to interpret the dynamics in terms of a 2d liquid with rather low<br />

friction and we could clarify the important role of rotational activation.<br />

Instabilität und Selbstorganisation bei der Bestrahlung von Schichtpaketen<br />

<strong>mit</strong> hochenergetischen Ionen<br />

Wolfgang Bolse 1<br />

1 Institut für Strahlenphysik, Universität Stuttgart<br />

Energetische Ionen sind ein Werkzeug <strong>mit</strong> einzigartigen Eigenschaften zur Erzeugung<br />

von Nano- und Submikrometerstrukturen auf oder in der Nähe der Oberfläche von<br />

Festkörpern. Bei seiner Abbremsung wird ein großer Teil der kinetischen Energie des<br />

Ions nahezu instantan in ein hochlokalisiertes Volumen von nm-Dimensionen (zumindest<br />

in lateraler Richtung) im Festkörper deponiert. Die dabei erreichte Energiedichte<br />

übersteigt bei weitem die Bindungsenergien im Festkörper und resultiert in einer<br />

nano-skaligen Zone <strong>mit</strong> extremen Nicht-Gleichgewichtsbedingungen. Da dies in einer<br />

kalten Umgebung stattfindet, kühlt die angeregte Zone innerhalb weniger 10 bis 100 ps<br />

wieder ab. Derart intensive, hochlokalisierte und extrem kurze Festkörperanregungen<br />

werden von keiner anderen Methode zur Materialmodifikation erreicht. Einzelne Ionen<br />

können daher dazu verwendet werden, Nicht-Gleichgewichtsstrukturen <strong>mit</strong> neuartigen<br />

physikalischen Eigenschaften direkt auf einer nm-Skala zu erzeugen, die dann als Ausgangsbasis<br />

für funktionelle Nano-Strukturen dienen. Einzelionenbestrahlung ist aber<br />

nicht der einzige Weg zur Erzeugung von von Nano- bzw. Submikrometerstrukturen<br />

<strong>mit</strong> energetischen Ionen. Erhöht man die Ionenfluenz und da<strong>mit</strong> die Dichte der durch<br />

Ioneneinschläge modifizierten Bereiche, so führt die Wechselwirkung und der Überlapp<br />

dieser Zonen oft zu Oberflächeninstabilitäten und Selbstorganisationseffekten, in deren<br />

Folge großflächige und oft periodische, nanometrische Muster und Strukturen entstehen,<br />

deren Eigenschaften weit über eine einfache Superposition der Einzelioneneffekte<br />

hinaus gehen. In diesem Beitrag sollen einige kürzlich erzielte Ergebnisse zu Instabilitäten<br />

und Selbstorganisationsprozessen in Dünnschichtsystem unter Bestrahlung <strong>mit</strong><br />

hochenergetischen Ionen (MeV/amu) und ihre potentielle Anwendung zur Herstellung<br />

großflächiger Anordnungen von maßgeschneiderten Nano- und Submikrometerstrukturen<br />

diskutiert werden.

We investigated the formation of quasi one-dimensional conducting filaments in diamond<br />

like carbon (DLC) films by swift heavy ion irradiation. Various DLC films with<br />

thicknesses of several 100 nm were grown using mass separated ion beam deposition<br />

on highly conducting Si, Fe and Ni substrates. After deposition the films were irradiated<br />

with 1 GeV 238 U ions with fluences between 10 9 and 10 11 ions/cm 2 . Due to their<br />

high electronic energy loss of about 30 keV/nm the swift heavy ions graphitize the predominantly<br />

(80 %) sp 3 -bound carbon film along their trajectories yielding conducting<br />

nanowires embedded in an insulating matrix. Using atomic force microscopy (AFM)<br />

with conducting cantilevers and applied bias voltage the presence of conducting tracks<br />

was confirmed and their conductivities were determined to be several orders of magnitude<br />

higher than of the host matrix. Temperature dependent electrical measurements<br />

were performed on the irradiated samples at 300 K - 10 K with fields up to 5 V/µm. We<br />

will discuss the results with respect to contact resistances and possible one-dimensional<br />

conduction mechanisms within the tracks.

Transmission surface x-ray diffraction studies of solid-liquid and liquidliquid<br />

interfaces<br />

Deeply buried interfaces between condensed phases, such as solid-liquid and liquidliquid<br />

interfaces, are ubiquitous in nature as well as of great importance in many<br />

technological processes, ranging from fuel cells to plating for microelectronics applications.<br />

The high brilliance of modern synchrotron sources allows studies of the atomicscale<br />

interface structure in-situ under realistic conditions. This will be illustrated<br />

by studies of Au(111) and liquid Hg electrodes in aqueous electrolytes. Specifically,<br />

grazing-incidence diffraction studies during homoexitaxial gold electrodeposition will<br />

be presented that reveal a noticeable more compressed reconstructed Au surface layer<br />

during Au deposition as compared to Au-free electrolyte [1]. Contrary to the Au-free<br />

case, the surface compression increases with decreasing potential in Au-containing solution.<br />

Second, it will be shown by in-situ x-ray reflectivity measurements that liquid<br />

Hg electrodes exhibit stratification into atomic layers at the interface to simple salt solutions<br />

[2]. This surface layering is even more pronounced than that found in previous<br />

studies at the liquid Hg / vapour interface [3].<br />

Materials with strongly correlated charge carriers are promising candidates for new<br />

electronic devices because their charge carrier mobility is linked to its spin degree of<br />

freedom and its exchange coupling to magnetic ions. Superconducting materials are<br />

also very attractive since their charge carriers are condensed in a macroscopic quantum<br />

state, the phase of which can be easily manipulated, for example, by an externally<br />

applied magnetic field. Based upon these considerations, heterostructures made from<br />

perovskite-oxides, such as cuprate high Tc superconductors and ferromagnetic manganite<br />

compounds that exhibit the so-called colossal magneto resistance effect seem to<br />

be ideal candidates for novel devices.<br />

Our neutron reflectometry measurements on YBa2Cu3O7/La2/3Ca1/3MnO3 multilayers<br />

have revealed detailed, microscopic information about the magnetization profile as<br />

a function of in-plane and out-of-plane wave vectors. [1] We observed characteristic<br />

differences between the nuclear and the magnetic scattering profiles which in combination<br />

with XMCD [2] results allowed us to identify an antiphase magnetic proxi<strong>mit</strong>y<br />

coupling where FM moment is induced in YBCO that is oriented antiparallel to the one<br />

Magnetic structures consisting of ferromagnetic layers separated by ultra-thin nonmagnetic<br />

spacer layers exhibit many new and interesting effects. The fundamental<br />

investigation of the magnetization dynamics of such layered magnetic structures calls<br />

for a method capable of delivering microscopic magnetic information about each of<br />

the magnetic layers separately. X-ray magnetic circular dichroism photoelectron emission<br />

microscopy (XMCD-PEEM) is such a technique. It combines the layer-resolved<br />

visualization of magnetic domain patterns at surfaces and in buried layers with a timeresolved<br />

stroboscopic measurement of the magnetization reversal dynamics, taking advantage<br />

of the time structure of the synchrotron radiation. Using this time-resolved,<br />

layer-selective microscopic technique we observed evidence for the importance of a local<br />

magnetic interlayer coupling mediated by magnetostatic stray fields emanating from<br />

domain walls. During the fast magnetization reversal, stray fields from domain walls<br />

in the hard magnetic layer can lead to a locally enhanced domain nucleation and thus<br />

to a faster switching of the soft magnetic layer. The images show furthermore that<br />

the speed of domain wall motion is influenced by the domain wall energy, leading to<br />

a lower velocity when domains are small. This becomes apparent as a delay in the<br />

nucleation of reversed domains.

Die Entmagnetisierung eines dünnen ferromagnetischen Films auf der fs-Zeitskala ist<br />

ein momentan noch nicht ausreichend verstandenes, grundlegendes Problem. Bisherige<br />

Experimente verwendeten fs-Pulse eines Lasers als Anregung wie auch als Sonde zur<br />

Messung der Magnetisierung. Diese ergaben eine Zeitkonstante von weniger als 1 ps für<br />

die Entmagnetisierung [1]. Fragen nach dem Transfer von Drehmoment aus dem magnetischen<br />

System an das Gitter blieben jedoch offen: Die Spin-Gitter Relaxationszeit<br />

von 50-100 ps [2] ist zu lange, um eine Änderung der Magnetisierung auf der sub-ps<br />

Zeitskala zu erklären.<br />

Wir verwenden Synchrotronstrahlung für einen neuen, alternativen Ansatz zur Untersuchung<br />

der Magnetisierungsdynamik. Die Röntgen-Absorptionsspektroskopie erlaubt<br />

uns, element-spezifische Messungen an dünnen Filmen durchzuführen. Messungen des<br />

Zirkular-Dichroismus geben Aufschluss über die magnetischen Momente der Probe.<br />

Über die Summenregeln ist es sogar möglich, die beiden Beiträge zur Magnetisierung<br />

in Festkörpern — das Orbital- und das Spinmoment der Elektronen — getrennt zu<br />

bestimmen. Dies ermöglicht einen Einblick in den Transfer von Drehmoment zwischen<br />

den einzelnen Freiheitsgraden während der fs Entmagnetisierung.<br />

Unser Experiment verwendet einen sogenannten ” laser pump – x-ray probe“ Aufbau.<br />

Der magnetische Film wird <strong>mit</strong> einem fs-Laserpuls angeregt, und danach durch<br />

einen Röntgenpuls <strong>mit</strong> variabler Zeitverzögerung gemessen. Die Zeitauflösung ist durch<br />

die zeitliche Struktur der verwendeten Synchrotronstrahlung gegeben. Die Dauer eines<br />

einzelnen Röntgenpulses liegt normalerweise bei etwa 50 ps, in speziellen Betriebsschichten<br />

(low-alpha [3]) kann sie bis auf wenige ps verkürzt werden. Noch kürzere<br />

Röntgenpulse von maximal 150 fs Dauer werden durch die Methode des Femtoslicings<br />

bei BESSY erzeugt [4]. Diese Zeitstruktur zusammen <strong>mit</strong> den Eigenschaften der<br />

Synchrotronstrahlung (einstellbare Photonenenergie und variable Polarisation) sind ein<br />

ideales Werkzeug für unsere Problemstellung. Dadurch konnten wir zum ersten Mal die<br />

Entmagnetisierung eines 30 nm dicken Ni-Films innerhalb von 300 fs <strong>mit</strong>tels Röntgen-<br />

Zirkulardichroismus nachweisen.<br />

We report on real-time stroboscopic investigations of the kinetics of field induced ordering<br />

processes in concentrated Co-ferrofluids by means of SANS. Ordering of the<br />

magnetic particles was forced by an alternating magnetic field of frequency f(s) with<br />

a maximum amplitude of Hmax=±200 Gs. We applied for the first time the TISANE<br />

method where a fast chopper of frequency f(e) was synchronized to f(s) and adjusted<br />

to a data acquisition frequency f(d) of the detector.A considerable gain in intensity<br />

and resolution was obtained by this technique where a large frame overlap and high<br />

repetition rates could be achieved. Up to about f(s)=1300 Hz the SANS scattering<br />

patterns oscillated as a function of time from isotropic at H=0 to strongly anisotropic<br />

at Hmax. The observed threshold frequency is far below the resolution li<strong>mit</strong> of the<br />

TISANE technique which must therefore result from the characteristic time needed for<br />

re-orientation of the magnetic particle moments. In a conventional stroboscopic SANS<br />

experiment when the data acquisition was triggered by a signal from the ac-field the<br />

periodic response was detected only up to about f(s)=600 Hz. With increasing frequency<br />

the oscillations are smeared out by the different flight times corresponding to<br />

the wavelength resolution of the velocity selector of 0.1 [2].<br />

We present results for the magnetic-field, temperature,<br />

and neutron-polarization dependence of the recently observed<br />

dipole-field-induced spin disorder in the soft magnetic<br />

Fe-based nanocomposite Nanoperm (Fe89Zr7B3Cu1).<br />

The mismatch of the saturation-magnetization values<br />

between the nanosized Fe particles (particle size: 12 nm)<br />

and the amorphous magnetic matrix gives rise to a dipolar<br />

stray field around each crystallite which induces spin<br />

disorder at the nanoscale and manifests itself as a pronounced<br />

clover-leaf-shaped angular anisotropy in the<br />

magnetic small-angle neutron scattering cross section<br />

(see figure below). We provide an analysis of the spindependent<br />

magnetic neutron scattering cross section of<br />

a multicomponent and multiphase nanocrystalline fer-<br />

the scattering patterns over a wide range of applied<br />

magnetic fields (∼ 30 − 290 mT) and momentum transfers<br />

(0.08 nm −1 ≤ q ≤ 0.6 nm −1 ) and persists up to<br />

T = 693 K, i.e., several hundred degrees Kelvin higher than the Curie transition temperature<br />

of the amorphous matrix phase (T am<br />

C ∼ = 345 K). Analysis of the radiallyaveraged<br />

spin-misalignment scattering cross section suggests that the characteristic<br />

wavelength of the dipole-field-induced spin disorder is temperature independent and of<br />

the order of at least 80 nm, in other words, dipolar correlations evolve on a length scale<br />

larger than the mean particle size. Measurements with a polarized incident neutron<br />

beam indicate that the dipole-field-associated spin-misalignment scattering contributes<br />

only very little to the polarization dependence.

Neutron diffraction study of the multinary chalcogenides CuFe1−xZnxSnS4<br />

The multinary chalcogenides Cu2FeSnS4 (stannite) and Cu2ZnSnS4 (kesterite) have<br />

newly attracted attention as possible photovoltaic materials [1] since the availability of<br />

indium is an object of discussion regarding the large-scale production of CuInSe2 solar<br />

cells. Their both structures are are topologically identical, but assigned to different<br />

space groups due to a different distribution of the cations Cu + , Zn 2+ and Fe 2+ . The<br />

stannite structure is consistent with the I-42m symmetry, with Fe located at at the<br />

origin (2a) and Cu at 4d (0, 1 1<br />

, ) [2]. In the kesterite structure, one Cu atom occupies<br />

). The elements Cu and Zn are neighbours in the periodic table, Cu+<br />

the 2a (0,0,0) position, with Zn and the remaining Cu ordered at 2c (0, 1<br />

2<br />

(0, 1<br />

at 2b (0,0, 1<br />

2<br />

and Zn 2+ have the same number of electrons, i. e. they have equal atomic form factors<br />

(f (Cu + )=f (Zn 2+ )). Hence these both cations are not distinguishable by conventional<br />

X-ray diffraction. The problem can be solved using neutron diffraction, because of<br />

the different neutron scattering lengths of Cu and Zn (bCu=7.718 fm, bZn=5.67 fm).<br />

Thus the investigation of the restructure process of the cation substructure in the<br />

stannite-kesterite join, CuFe1−xZnxSnS4, is a prime example to demonstrate the power<br />

of neutron diffraction in structural research of complex materials.<br />

Neutron powder diffraction experiments were performed at the Hahn-Meitner-Institute<br />

Berlin at the high resolution powder diffractometer E9 (λ=1.79 ˚A). Structural parameters<br />

and cation site occupancies were determined by Rietveld analysis of the data. From<br />

the latter the average neutron scattering length (bav(exp)) of the cation sites was obtained,<br />

providing the information about the cation restructure process. Based on a<br />

cation distribution model a theoretical average neutron scattering lengths (bav(calc))<br />

was calculated. The condition bav(exp)=bav(calc) could be fullfilled by modelling the<br />

cation distribution. Surprisingly the evaluated Cu + and Zn 2+ distribution in kesterite<br />

(Cu2ZnSnS4) is random on the sites 2c and 2d, which is in disagreement to literature<br />

[2, 3]. This may be caused by the Cu-Zn differentiation problem in X-ray diffraction<br />

as described above. The crossover from stannite (x=0) to kesterite (x=1) in<br />

CuFe1−xZnxSnS4 was found as a three-stage process of cation restructure involving<br />

Cu + , Zn 2+ and Fe 2+ . The Sn 4+ cation does not take part in this process. The knowledge<br />

about the metal distribution in CuFe1−xZnxSnS4 multinary compounds provides<br />

a basis for further studies, i. e. about defect compounds.<br />

We use in-situ and real-time X-ray scattering during growth of the organic semiconductor<br />

diindenoperylene to study the kinetically controlled evolution of the film structure<br />

with time. We manage to produce movies of the changes in reflectivity and grazing<br />

incidence diffraction in a relatively broad q range, i.e. beyond simple anti-Bragg-point<br />

time scans during organic molecular beam deposition [1]. These measurements yield<br />

structural and morphological information for a range of film thicknesses. We identify<br />

a transition from layer by layer growth to rapid roughening [2] after 9 MLs for<br />

high temperature growth, subtle changes of the molecular tilt angle, a dynamic change<br />

of the in-plane unit cell dimensions, and competition between standing up and lying<br />

down phases for low temperature growth. Importantly the real-time measurements also<br />

reveal dynamic growth phenomena such as transient structures during growth which<br />

would be missed in simple post-growth measurements.<br />

Electrical and structural properties of DX defects in CdTe<br />

In some semiconductors the achievable doping levels are li<strong>mit</strong>ed by the formation of<br />

intrinsic defects which leads to the effect of electrical “self-compensation” of dopants.<br />

In AlGaAs and CdTe, donors are electrically compensated by the formation of so-called<br />

DX centers. In the case of In donors in CdTe and In concentrations exceeding 10 18<br />

cm −3 , these DX centers are created. A characteristic feature of DX centers is the<br />

so-called “persistent photoconductivity (PPC)”, a metastable state of the DX-center,<br />

that is formed by illumination at low temperatures thereby increasing the carrier concentration.<br />

The DX-center and the PPC effect are theoretically explained by the “large<br />

lattice relaxation model” [1]. In this model, the DX center is formed by the relaxation<br />

of the In donor towards an interstitial lattice site thereby generating a neighboring Cd<br />

vacancy. Then, the PPC effect consists in a relaxation of the In donor back to a substitutional<br />

lattice site resulting in an electrically reactivation of the donor. In this model,<br />

the lattice relaxation involves changes of the In-Te distance of more then 1 ˚A thereby<br />

locally breaking the cubic symmetry of the CdTe lattice. Such a lattice perturbation<br />

should create an electric field gradient (EFG) observable by perturbed angular correlation<br />

spectroscopy (PAC). Using the probe 111 In/ 111 Cd, an EFG assigned to the DX<br />

defect has been reported characterized by νQ = 21 MHz and η = 0 [2]. This assignment<br />

is based on theoretical calculations of the respective EFG. At the same time, these calculations<br />

predict a short lived stability of the DX center even after the decay of 111 In to<br />

111 Cd, the isotope at which the actual PAC measurements take place. We performed<br />

PAC measurements using 111 In/ 111 Cd and simultaneously measured the conductivity<br />

of the same samples as a function of temperature with and without illumination. Below<br />

150 K, the samples showed a PPC effect that was accompanied by an increase of about<br />

20 % of the carrier concentration. But, this effect is not accompanied by any changes<br />

of the observed EFG. Possible explanations of the observed EFG, originally assigned to<br />

the DX center will be discussed. We will also present first results on the experimental<br />

detection of DX centers in CdTe by PAC using the radioactive isotope 117 Cd decaying<br />

to 117 In; this isotope is both a donor in CdTe and a PAC probe atom. In this type of<br />

experiment, the DX centers including In donors are formed after the decay of 117 Cd<br />

and are still present during the PAC measurement performed at an excited nuclear<br />

state of 117 In.<br />

Im westlichen Teil der Toskana sind im Bereich des Apennin mächtige Kalkformationen<br />

Teil dieser mächtigen Flyschsedimente, abgelagert in der Tethys, sind auch die tiefjurassischen<br />

(200 Mill. Jahre) Ausgangsgesteine der Carrara-Marmore. Die bereits vor<br />

2000 Jahren zu Zeiten des Augustus intensiv abgebauten Gesteine streichen in einem<br />

weit nach Osten auslaufenden Gebirgsbogen des Apennin (Apuanische Alpen) in einem<br />

geologischen Fenster umgeben von tertiären Folgen aus. Ihre Deformation erfolgte im<br />

wesentlichen zu tertiärer Zeit (Eozän 40 Mill. Jahre) im Zusammenhang <strong>mit</strong> der Auffaltung<br />

von nach Osten jünger werdenden Faltenbögen. Den stärksten Hebungsphasen<br />

im Miozän vor etwa 15 Mill. Jahren folgt im Pleistozän eine magmatisch-intrusive und<br />

vulkanische Entwicklung im südlich an das Apennin grenzende Latium.<br />

Die Struktur der Carrara-Marmore wird in der Fachliteratur einer kontaktmetamorphen<br />

Überprägung im Bereich dieser granitischen Intrusionen (um 2 Mill. Jahre und<br />

jünger), das heißt einer im wesentlichen durch statische Rekristallisation geprägten<br />

Formung zugeschrieben. Die Ergebnisse der durchgeführten Texturanalyse (Fasertextur<br />

<strong>mit</strong> Gürteltendenz, Abb. 1) belegen jedoch zusätzlich eine deutliche kristallographische<br />

Vorzugsorientierung der Kalzitminerale, - auch für eine Probe von einer makroskopisch<br />

massigen Gesteinsvariante. Da<strong>mit</strong> kann zusätzlich auch eine dynamische Deformationskomponente<br />

belegt werden, wie sie in Anbetracht der in den alpiden Faltenbau<br />

einbezogenen Formation auch zu erwarten war. Vor allem diese Deformationsanteile<br />

beeinflussen letztlich nicht unwesentlich die Brauchbarkeit des Gesteins als Werkstoff.<br />

Light-harvesting occurs in some photosynthetic bacteria with great efficiency, sometimes<br />

even at 100 m under the water surface. These photon sponges have organelles<br />

called chlorosomes, which act as light-harvesters and which agglomerate bacteriochlorophyll<br />

c as the main pigment molecule [1]. The advent of the ANKA Synchrotron source<br />

[2] made possible collection of X-ray diffraction data on quite small crystals of several<br />

self-assembling porphyrins which are equipped with the same recognition groups as<br />

the natural bacteriochlorophyll. The solved crystal structures allow an unprecedented<br />

insight into the supramolecular organization of such antenna systems [3]. Below is<br />

shown a stack of a porphyrin which crystallizes into two different modifications and<br />

which can pack in different ways [3]. In another example, a conformational switching<br />

between energy and electron transfer will be presented [4]. X-ray crystallography allows<br />

to understand the structural implications and thus programming of the self-assemblies<br />

for a certain function, as for instance light-harvesting. It is hoped that this knowledge<br />

will bear fruit in the construction of efficient biomimetic solar cells.<br />

Fetuin-A / α2-HS glycoprotein is a liver derived serum protein [1]. It strongly accumulates<br />

in bone due to its affinity for the mineral phase[2] and a direct impact on<br />

bone metabolism was reported [3]. However, the prime physiological role of fetuin-A<br />

apparently is the systemic inhibition of calcium phosphate mineral deposition in extracellular<br />

fluids [4]. Clinical studies conducted in humans demonstrated that reduced<br />

fetuin-A serum levels in dialysis patients correlate with the extent of soft tissue calcification<br />

and mortality [5]. Thus the lack of fetuin-A has serious pathobiochemical<br />

consequences. SANS is a rather new experimental technique in this field of biomineralization,<br />

it delivers detailed structural information about mineral-protein composites<br />

by applying contrast variation method which is done by proper varying the H2O/D2O<br />

composition of the aqueous solution [6].<br />

The formation and maturation of the mineral particles in the presence of fetuin proceeds<br />

in a two-stage process. During the first stage particles of about 250 ˚A radius of<br />

gyration were observed for about 5 hours immediately after mixing. Between 5 and<br />

10 hours the particles slowly increased their size to the order of 500 ˚A representing the<br />

second stage. From 10 to 24 hours (the experimental endpoint) we observed stable<br />

particles.<br />

The structure of the mineral-organic particles of the second stage was further analyzed<br />

by the method of contrast variation [6]. The partial scattering functions were<br />

derived by the “singular value decomposition” method. The self-term PP,P represents<br />

a bimodal distribution of the fetuin-A attributed to the mineralized particles (at low<br />

Q) and the fetuin-A monomers (at high Q). All self-terms show Porods Q −4 power law<br />

indicating compact particles with a sharp interphase. The positive cross-term PP,M<br />

suggests a mineral core covered by a protein layer. We found an octacalcium phosphate<br />

core and a dense protein monolayer, which protects the mineral from further growth<br />

until sedimentation takes place. So, inhibition of mineral deposition is based on the<br />

stabilization of 1000 ˚A sized colloidal particles.<br />

X-Ray Photoelectron Spektroscopie, HAXPES) ist durch die Verfügbarkeit von Synchrotronstrahlungsquellen<br />

der dritten Generation zugänglich geworden. Man benötigt<br />

eine brilliante Anregungsquelle, da die Wirkungsquerschnitte für die Elektronenanregung<br />

annähernd <strong>mit</strong> der dritten Potenz der Photonenenergie abfallen. Ein zentraler<br />

Vorteil der HAXPES Technik ist die große Ausdringtiefe von Elektronen hoher kinetischer<br />

Energie. Mit Photoelektronen im 10 keV Energiebereich werden Informationstiefen<br />

im 10 nm Bereich erreicht, ideal um die Stärken der PS auf heutzutage interessante<br />

Nano-Strukturen anzuwenden. Zudem kann <strong>mit</strong> Röntgenmonochromatoren im<br />

harten Röntgenbereich eine exzellente Energieauflösung erzielt werden (ca. 1 meV bei<br />

15 keV). Jedoch ist es zur Zeit noch nicht erwiesen, dass eine entsprechende Auflösung<br />

vom Elektronenspektrometer erzielt werden kann. (Kommerzielle Spektrometer erreichen<br />

zur Zeit maximal 10 keV und eine Auflösung von 50-100 meV). Ein weiterer<br />

Vorteil ergibt sich durch die Kombination von HAXPES <strong>mit</strong> Röntgeninterfrenzfeldern<br />

(X-ray Standing Waves, XSW) wodurch atomare Strukturen element-spezifisch und<br />

auch chemisch spezifisch (d.h. gemäß des Bindungszustandes der Atome eines Elementes)<br />

abgebildet werden können. Der Stand des Gebietes ist zur Zeit am besten in Ref.<br />

1 dokumentiert, den Proceedings des ersten HAXPES Workshops in Grenoble 2003.<br />

Wir werden in unserem Beitrag über die Messung von Wirkungsquerschnitten von<br />

schwach gebundenen Elektronenniveaus im harten Röntgenbereich bis ca. 15 keV berichten,<br />

die wir <strong>mit</strong> einem kommerziellen Elektronenspektrometer (PHI 10-360) und<br />

einer speziellen von uns konstruierten Retardierungslinse analysiert haben. Wir werden<br />

weiterhin schildern wie die Kombination von HAXPES und XSW es erlaubt nachzuweisen,<br />

dass ultra-dünne Schichten des Supraleiters YBa2Cu3O7 auf SrTiO3 in Form<br />

von perowskitischen Cu(Y,Ba)-oxid Einheitszellen wachsen und welchen Atomen in der<br />

SrTiO3 Einheitszelle die verschiedenen Regionen des SrTiO3 Valenzbandes zugeordnet<br />

werden können.<br />

Im Rahmen der laufenden BMBF Förderperiode ist inzwischen zusammen <strong>mit</strong> der<br />

Industrie ein Spektrometer im Bau, das für die Spektroskopie im harten Röntgenbereich<br />

optimiert ist.<br />

Structure determination of nanoparticles using the pair distribution function<br />

Reinhard Neder 1 , Vladimir Korsunkiy 1<br />

PDFs of interatomic distances G(R) are obtained by Fourier transformation of powder<br />

diffraction pattern [1]. The PDF peak positions correspond to interatomic distances<br />

and the peak intensity is proportional to the number of corresponding distances. This<br />

allows the modelling of the real atomic mutual arrangement in extremely small (1-<br />

3 nm) nanoparticles [1,2], whose structure cannot be investigated with the standard<br />

methods like Rietveld fitting of powder diffraction intensities. By the use of high intensity<br />

high energy synchrotron radiation (λ=0.1 ˚A, E=100-120keV), one can reliably<br />

obtain highly resolved PDFs. This is due to the possibility to precisely measure the<br />

very weak scattering up to a very high diffraction vector qmax=4πsinΘ/λ=30 ˚A −1 .<br />

Our measurements were carried out at the beam line BW5 at HASYLAB DESY in<br />

Hamburg [1]. The PDFs of both, polycrystalline and nanocrystalline ZnSe show sharp<br />

peaks, characteristic of interatomic distances in a crystal. The PDF of crystalline ZnSe<br />

does show these up to very large R, while in the PDF of nanocrystalline ZnSe, equivalent<br />

peaks have already disappeared at R>30 ˚A due to the finite nanoparticle size. This<br />

allows to estimate the particle size as being ca. 30 ˚A. The modelling of the PDF shows<br />

that the nanoparticles have the zincblende structure but with several defects. Small<br />

(D=18 ˚A) CdS nanoparticles have a quasi-amorphous structure and the two types of S<br />

atoms the internal inorganic and the external belonging to the organic ligands define<br />

two quite distinct CdSCd angles (109 and 100 ◦ ) between the Cd-S (2.52 ˚A) bonds. In<br />

the RDF, the two peaks produced by distances between heavy Cd atoms (at 3.85 and<br />

4.11 ˚A) correspond to these different bond angles. In the PDF of composite nanoparticles<br />

consisting of a CdSe core and a ZnS shell, interatomic distances characteristic for<br />

both components were observed directly. In the diffraction pattern, however, only very<br />

broad and overlapping peaks are observed due to the small particle size and structural<br />

defects.<br />

1 <strong>Deutsche</strong>s Elektronen Synchrotron DESY, Notkestr. 85 22607 Hamburg<br />

In 2003 DESY has decided to reconstruct its 2.3 km long PETRA storage ring into<br />

a third generation synchrotron radiation source called PETRA III from mid 2007 on.<br />

A technical design report has been published in spring 2004 (http://petra3.desy.de).<br />

PETRA III will be operated at a particle energy of 6 GeV and its e<strong>mit</strong>tance will be<br />

1 nmrad which is a world record low value for a high energy storage ring. The storage<br />

ring current will be 100 mA (in top-up mode) in the beginning. Due to these parameters<br />

PETRA III will be the most brilliant storage ring based X-ray source enabling<br />

a wealth of new experimental techniques like sub 100 nm focusing or experiments exploiting<br />

coherent photons. In total 14 insertion device beamlines will be available for<br />

experiments. Planning and R&D for PETRA III is in an advanced stage and the first<br />

components for the new storage ring sections have already been ordered. The scientific<br />

program of the phase I beamlines has been decided on and detailed planning in collaboration<br />

with the user community is ongoing. The presentation will give an overview<br />

about the scientific possibilities of PETRA III and report on the status.

Materialforschung <strong>mit</strong> energiereichen Schwerionen bei der GSI<br />

Reinhard Neumann 1<br />

1 Gesellschaft für Schwerionenforschung (GSI), Planckstr. 1, 64291 Darmstadt<br />

Die GSI verfügt <strong>mit</strong> Hochladungsinjektor HLI, Linearbeschleuniger UNILAC und Schwerionensynchrotron<br />

SIS über Großgeräte, <strong>mit</strong> denen sich Ionenstrahlen sämtlicher Elemente<br />

des Periodensystems (am SIS in allen Ladungszuständen bis hin zu nacktem<br />

Uran) erzeugen lassen. Die Energien betragen 1,4 MeV/u am HLI, etwa 4 bis 12 MeV/u<br />

am UNILAC und ca. 50 MeV/u bis 1 GeV/u (für leichtere Ionen bis 2 GeV/u) am SIS.<br />

Am Anfang der Präsentation steht eine kurze Darstellung der an diesen Beschleunigern<br />

betriebenen Strahlplätze für Material- und Festkörper-Untersuchungen, sowie<br />

der in-situ und in Laboren außerhalb der Strahlplätze vorhandenen Analysetechniken.<br />

Es folgt dann ein Überblick der im GSI-Bereich Materialforschung in Kooperation<br />

<strong>mit</strong> zahlreichen in- und ausländischen Partnern bearbeiteten Themenschwerpunkte:<br />

(1) Ein breites grundlagenorientiertes Arbeitsgebiet betrifft Schwerionen-induzierte<br />

Veränderungen wie Punktdefekte oder Phasenübergänge in Festkörpern, zum Beispiel<br />

bei gleichzeitiger Anwendung von Druck oder tiefer Temperatur. So wurden erstmals<br />

in einer Diamantstempelzelle unter hohem Druck befindliche Festkörper betrahlt, wobei<br />

der SIS-Ionenstrahl aufgrund seiner hohen kinetischen Energie mehrere Millimeter<br />

Diamant durchlief. Weitere Arbeitsgebiete sind sowohl grundlagen- als auch in erheblichem<br />

Maß anwendungsorientiert: (2) Energiereiche Schwerionen erzeugen lange sog.<br />

latente Spuren, durch deren Aufätzung Nanoporen entstehen. Durch Bestrahlung einer<br />

Polymerfolie <strong>mit</strong> nur einem Schwerion erhält man auf diese Weise eine Einzelloch-<br />

Membran, die zum Studium von Materialtransport wie z. B. biologischer Moleküle<br />

besonders geeignet ist. (3) Materialabscheidung in solchen Kanälen ermöglicht auch<br />

die Erzeugung von Nanodrähten, die je nach den verwendeten Abscheideparametern<br />

poly- oder einkristallin sein können. Zu den an Nanodrähten untersuchten Eigenschaften<br />

gehören elektrischer Widerstand, thermische Instabilität und mögliche, durch die<br />

eingeschränkte Geometrie bewirkte Quanteneffekte. (4) Die Schwerionen-Mikrosonde<br />

am UNILAC dient der Bestrahlung von Objekten, wie elektronische Schaltkreise oder<br />

biologische Zellen. Diese Sonde zeichnet sich durch die Fähigkeit aus, einzelne Schwerionen<br />

einschließlich Uran auch bei maximaler UNILAC-Energie von 12 MeV/u <strong>mit</strong><br />

einer Präzision von ca. 0,5 Mikrometer zu plazieren. So werden u.a. in Zusammenarbeit<br />

<strong>mit</strong> dem GSI-Bereich Biophysik einzelne Zellkerne in einer Zellkultur bestrahlt<br />

<strong>mit</strong> anschließender Beobachtung, wie sich getroffene und nicht bestrahlte Zellen über<br />

größere Zeitspannen verhalten.

New High Field Magnet for Neutron Scattering at Hahn-Meitner Institute<br />

The Berlin Neutron Scattering Center BENSC at the Hahn-Meitner-Institute as a<br />

user facility for structural research with neutrons and synchrotron radiation has a<br />

special emphasis on experiments under high magnetic field. For over 10 years HMI has<br />

developed experience in special neutron sample environment at low temperatures and<br />

high magnetic fields.<br />

Neutron scattering is uniquely suited to study magnetic properties on a microscopic<br />

length scale. This is because neutrons have comparable wavelengths and, due to their<br />

magnetic moment, they interact with the atomic magnetic moments. Magnetic interactions<br />

and magnetic phenomena depend on thermodynamical parameters like magnetic<br />

field, temperature and pressure. Therefore special efforts are made in HMI’s neutron<br />

research to offer outstanding sample environment equipment. We are running eight<br />

different magnet systems up to the highest static, vertical field for neutron scattering<br />

of 17.5 T worldwide. Combined with systems for low and high temperatures as well as<br />

high pressure, these magnets can be used at several neutron instruments.<br />

For the future a dedicated instrument for neutron scattering at extreme fields is under<br />

construction (Extreme Environment Diffractometer, ExED). The TOF technique<br />

per<strong>mit</strong>s the access of a broad range of Q-values or d-spacing domains under scattering<br />

angle access strongly restricted to forward and backward directions by the use of<br />

highest field magnets above 30 T. Both cold and thermal neutrons are delivered to the<br />

instrument by a new multispectral extraction system and a ballistic guide and give rise<br />

to a very broad wavelength spectrum of 0.7 ˚A < λ < 20 ˚A.<br />

For this instrument the existing superconducting magnets as well as a future hybrid<br />

system can be used. The highest fields, above 30 T will be produced by the planned<br />

series-connected hybrid magnet system, designed and constructed in collaboration with<br />

the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory, Tallahassee, FL. This will be a horizontal<br />

magnet system with coned ends at both sides.<br />

Results of present neutron scattering experiments and examples for future research<br />

possibilities at very high fields will be given.

Using Neutron Spectroscopy to Study Collective Dynamics of Biological<br />

and Model Membrane Systems<br />

While most spectroscopic techniques, as, e.g., nuclear magnetic resonance or dielectric<br />

spectroscopy probe macroscopic responses, neutron and within some restrictions<br />

also x-ray scattering experiments give the unique access to microscopic dynamics at<br />

length scales of intermolecular or atomic distances. Only recently, it has become possible<br />

to study collective dynamics of planar lipid bilayers using neutron spectroscopy<br />

techniques [1]. We determined the dispersion relation of the coherent fast picosecond<br />

density fluctuations on nearest neighbor distances of the phospholipid acyl chains in<br />

the gel and in the fluid phases of a DMPC bilayer and could shed light on the evolution<br />

of structure and dynamics in the range of the gel-fluid main phase transition. By<br />

combining different neutron scattering techniques, namely three-axis, backscattering<br />

and spin-echo spectroscopy, we present measurements of short and long wavelength<br />

collective fluctuations in biomimetic and biological membranes in a large range in momentum<br />

and energy transfer, covering time scales from about 0.1 ps to almost 1 µs and<br />

length scales from 3 ˚A to about 0.1 µm [1-4]. Because of optimized setups and sample<br />

preparation, inelastic neutron scattering experiments supply for the first time sufficiently<br />

strong coherent inelastic signals for quantitative analysis. The measurements<br />

offer a large window of length and time scales to test and refine theoretical models<br />

of dynamics of biomimetic and biological membranes. From a smectic hydrodynamic<br />

theory, the long wavelength dispersion relation give direct access to the elasticity parameters<br />

of the membranes in the fluid phase [3], i.e., the bilayer bending rigidity κ<br />

and the compressional modulus B of the stacks.<br />

Swelling kinetics and structural changes of polyelectrolyte multilayers in<br />

contact with aqueous solution and water vapor<br />

The sequential layer-by-layer adsorption of polyanions and polycations to build polyelectrolyte<br />

multilayers has triggered enormous interest in their potential uses in a wide<br />

range of fields, from photonic to pharmaceutical applications. This is due to the ease<br />

of preparation, the possibility to control film thickness with Angstrom precision and<br />

because the macroscopic properties can be influenced by the chemical composition of<br />

the polymers [1]. The detailed mechanism of film formation and the manipulation of<br />

the films by external means are current topics of active research. Experimental studies<br />

have shown that the main driving force for the assembly of multilayer films is the<br />

electrostatic attraction between the oppositely charged polyelectrolyte chains and the<br />

conco<strong>mit</strong>ant release of counter ions. We have found that a minimum charge density<br />

of ca. 60 % of the fully charged chains is necessary for obtaining stable films [2]. We<br />

will show that the conformation of the solvent swollen films - prior to drying - is determined<br />

by the initial adsorption conditions [3], but can be altered ex-situ by exposure<br />

to a liquid phase of very high ionic strength. Recently, it has been observed that the<br />

swelling depends on outermost layer [4, 5]. The water uptake of the outer layers is<br />

more pronounced, which leads to the assumption, that they are more loosely packed<br />

than the inner layers near the template [5]. A neutron reflectivity study of this effect<br />

in addition indicated the existence of two kinds of water, bound with different strength<br />

within the films. Beside unexpected two-step kinetics of swelling, the reflectivity curves<br />

of the layers against vacuum before and after re-hydration in D2O vapor did not agree.<br />

It was only after subsequent re-hydration in saturated H2O vapor that the initial and<br />

final reflectivity curves against vacuum superimposed. We will discuss our findings in<br />

the context of polyion complex formation, interdigitation and film imperfections.<br />

X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy is used to study the dynamics of soft matter<br />

surfaces. We present results of capillary wave dynamics on bulk liquid surfaces, thin<br />

wetting films on solid substrates and the 2-dimensional slow dynamics of gold cluster<br />

on polymer surfaces.<br />

We present a formalism for resolution effects in XPCS experiments based on the theory<br />

presented in reference [1]. This formalism enables us to explain experimentally observed<br />

transitions between homodyne and heterodyne correlation functions and to explain the<br />

excess damping usually found for propagating waves.<br />

XPCS experiments from thin vapour deposited wetting films on solid substrates showed<br />

the absence of capillary wave dynamics on length scales even below the thickness<br />

dependent van der Waals cutoff. Instead of capillary wave dynamics we found a static<br />

surface morphology with a peculiar 1/q 3 power law behaviour. The speckle structure<br />

from the diffuse scattering in plane scattering and the reflectivities depend on the<br />

conditions of sample preparation.<br />

The dynamic structure factor of gold particles moving on the surface of thin polymer<br />

films has been measured. Above the glass transition of the polymer we found<br />

the dynamic structure factor of the gold clusters to follow the peculiar form f(q,t) ∼<br />

exp(-(t/τ) α ) with an exponent α= 3/2 that is a faster than exponential decay of the<br />

correlation function. The relaxation times scales 1/q thus pointing to hyperdiffusive<br />

motion. Moreover aging phenomena are observed.<br />

Kristallographische Textur industrierelevanter Komponenten<br />

In der materialkundlichen Beschreibung von realen Komponenten (Bauteilen oder<br />

Halbzeugen) sind zerstörungsfreie Prüfungen bezüglich Bauteilfehlern, anisotroper Eigenschaften<br />

und Restspannungen von großer Bedeutung für deren Einsatz. Für anisotropes<br />

Verhalten ist in vielen Fällen die Gesamtheit der Mikrostruktur inklusiv<br />

der Vorzugsorientierung, der das Bauteil aufbauenden Kristalle, verantwortlich. Die<br />

Standardverfahren zur Bestimmung kristallographischer Texturen (Texturtyp, Texturschärfe<br />

und Einfluss auf die Anisotropie der Eigenschaften) arbeiten zerstörend <strong>mit</strong>tels<br />

Laborröntgenanlagen [1] und Elektronenstrahlen (EBSD-Verfahren) [2]. Im Falle<br />

von grobkörnigen Materialien, wo große Probenvolumina zur Erreichung der Kornstatistik<br />

benötigt werden, kommt die Neutronenbeugung zum Einsatz [3]. Im Gegensatz<br />

dazu kann die Texturuntersuchung von Bauteilen und Halbzeugen zerstörungsfreies<br />

Messen erforderlich machen, insbesondere wenn Restspannungen an identischen Proben<br />

untersucht werden müssen. Messungen im inneren kompakter Proben erfordert<br />

eine Messsonde <strong>mit</strong> hoher Eindringtiefe. Hierfür sind thermische Neutronen und harten<br />

Röntgenstrahlen <strong>mit</strong> Eindringtiefen im cm-Bereich (z. B. 100 keV-Röntgen: Mg -<br />

3,40 cm, Cu - 0,20 cm; Neutronen: Mg - 6,10 cm, Cu - 0,85 cm).<br />

Die Anforderungen an das Texturexperiment sind je nach Probenmaterial und -<br />

geometrie sehr unterschiedlich. Untersuchungen an Niobrohren unterschiedlicher Qualitäten<br />

wurden durchgeführt um Texturinhomogenitäten über den Umfang von 84mm<br />

dicken Rohren <strong>mit</strong> Wandstärken von 4 mm zu er<strong>mit</strong>teln. Die Bestimmung von kristallographischen<br />

Texturen an Standardzugproben dient der direkten Korrelation von<br />

Materialeigenschaften (Spannungs-Dehnungs-Messungen, Streckgrenze, Bruchdehnung<br />

etc.) <strong>mit</strong> der Textur an identischen Probenbereichen. Messungen an einer Stahlwelle,<br />

an einer Raketendüse und an TiAl-Turbinenschaufeln wurden wahlweise <strong>mit</strong> Neutronen<br />

oder harten Röntgenstrahlen durchgeführt. Die Auswahlkriterien waren die Eindringtiefe<br />

des Strahles, das Streuverhalten des Materials, die Probengeometrie und die<br />

Korngrößenverteilung.<br />

Am Messplatz G3 am HASYLAB/DESY [1] wurden <strong>mit</strong> dem MAXIM Verfahren Eigenspannungen<br />

am Beispiel von Reibrühr- und Laserschweißnähten ortsaufgelöst unter<br />

Verwendung des sin 2 Ψ-Verfahrens [2] untersucht. Im Rahmen des sin 2 Ψ-Verfahrens<br />

werden Beugungsmessungen im Hinblick auf die Bestimmung von Eigenspannungen<br />

unter verschiedenen Einfallswinkeln Ψ durchgeführt. Ψ ist dabei der Winkel zwischen<br />

Oberflächennormale und Beugungsvektor. Die MAXIM-Methode am Messplatz G3 am<br />

HASYLAB erlaubt die simultane Untersuchung einer Probenoberfläche (bis zu 12 x<br />

4 mm 2 ) <strong>mit</strong> einer Ortsauflösung von bis zu 13 x 13 µm 2 . Das Ergebnis einer solchen<br />

Messung <strong>mit</strong> diesem Aufbau ist dann eine Karte <strong>mit</strong> Eigenspannungswerten als Funktion<br />

der Position im oberflächennahen Probenbereich. Bei einer Röntgenwellenlänge<br />

zur Erfassung von Netzebenenabständen von 1.78 ˚A beträgt die Eindringtiefe in Magnesium<br />

und Aluminium etwa 10 bis 20 µm.<br />

Um Spannungsfelder auch im Innern einer Probe messen zu können, müssen Messungen<br />

<strong>mit</strong> höherenergetischer Röntgenstrahlung durchgeführt werden. Diese steht am<br />

Messplatz HARWI-2 zur Verfügung, wo dann in Verbindung <strong>mit</strong> einem neuen Detektorsystem<br />

ebenfalls ortsaufgelöste Beugungsmessungen möglich sein werden. Der zur<br />

In many solids, heavy ions of high kinetic energy (MeV-GeV) produce long cylindrical<br />

damage trails with diameters of order 10 nm (see e. g. [1]). Up to now, almost no<br />

information was available [2] how solids cope with the simultaneous exposure to these<br />

energetic projectiles and to high pressure. We report the first experiments where relativistic<br />

heavy ions from the SIS heavy-ion synchrotron at GSI were injected through<br />

several mm of diamond into solid samples pressurized up to 18 GPa (180 kbar) in a<br />

diamond anvil cell. We used ions with kinetic energies up to 70 GeV which traversed<br />

completely one of the two diamond anvils and penetrated the sample enclosed in the<br />

high-pressure cell with an energy loss value sufficiently high for damage creation [3,4].<br />

In several solids, such as synthetic graphite and natural zircon, the combination of<br />

pressure and ion beams triggered drastic structural changes not caused by the applied<br />

pressure or the ions alone [5]. The modifications comprise long-range amorphization<br />

of graphite rather than individual track formation, and in the case of zircon the decomposition<br />

into nanocrystals and nucleation of the high-pressure phase reidite. In<br />

contrast, for other materials, e. g., dark mica, no significant influence of the pressure<br />

on the ion-track formation could be observed.<br />

High Speed Semiconductor Detectors for Synchrotron Experiments at LCLS<br />

and XFEL<br />

Silicon Drift Detector type detectors (SDDs, pnCCDs, CDDs and active pixel sensors(APS),<br />

DEPFETs) have been developed as high speed spectrometers for energies<br />

from 50 eV up to 50 keV in a single photon counting mode as well in an integration<br />

mode. They show high energy and high position resolution as well as high quantum<br />

efficiency for X-rays. Their full well capacities exceed 106 electrons per pixel. The read<br />

noise close to room temperature is less than 10 electrons (rms) leading to Fano li<strong>mit</strong>ed<br />

energy measurements at readout speeds of 108 pixels per second. Pixel sizes of 20 ×<br />

20 µm 2 have been realized on 500 µm thick fully depleted silicon as well as pixel sizes<br />

up to 1 cm 2 . Typical formats being experimentally evaluated are 256 × 256 or 512 ×<br />

512 with pixel sizes from 35 µm 2 to 75 µm 2 . The minimum sensitive detector thickness<br />

is 50 µm, a maximum detector thickness is technologically li<strong>mit</strong>ed to 1.5 mm.<br />

Special designs have been proposed for synchrotron applications complying with the<br />

time structure (bunch structure) conditions of the recently approved XFEL to be built<br />

at DESY and the LCLS at SLAC. The X-ray imagers are based on the concepts of<br />

(non-controlled) controlled drift detectors (CDD) and fully depleted pnCCDs. They<br />

are dedicated for X-ray imaging from the kHz to the MHz range. A detector system<br />

which satisfies the LCLS (X-FEL at SLAC) specifications is presented on the basis of<br />

fully depleted pnCCDs with a format of 1024 × 1024 combined with a pixel size of<br />

50 µm and a readout rate of 500 Hz. Subsystems are already operational and show the<br />

full agreement with the performance specified and required by the synchrotron light<br />

user.<br />

The presentation will include the discussion of the user requirements and specifications,<br />

a detailed concept of the LCLS detection system and measured properties of such a<br />

system. A conceptual study of the XFEL detector system based on the controlled drift<br />

detectors will be given. The present concept of the XFEL approach uses controlled<br />

drift detectors to be read out with 1 MHz having a drift path of 2.6 cm per subunit.<br />

It includes integrated FETs on the CDD and dedicated preamplifiers, ADCs and data<br />

buffers for each individual channel. First experimental results from the CDD detectors<br />

will be shown.

Fig. 1: (a) nanofocusing refractive x-ray<br />

lenses (NFLs) made of Si. (b) Hard x-ray<br />

nanoprobe based on two crossed NFLs.<br />

At synchrotron radiation sources, parabolic refractive<br />

x-ray lenses allow one to built both full<br />

field and scanning microscopes in the hard xray<br />

range [1]. The latter microscope can be operated<br />

in transmission, fluorescence, and diffraction<br />

mode, giving chemical, elemental, and structural<br />

contrast. For scanning microscopy, a small<br />

and intensive microbeam is required. Parabolic<br />

refractive x-ray lenses with a focal distance in<br />

the centimeter range, so-called nanofocusing lenses<br />

(NFLs, Fig. 1(a)), can generate hard x-ray<br />

nanobeams in the range of 100 nm and below,<br />

even at short distances, i. e., 40 to 70 m from the<br />

source [2,3].<br />

Recently, a 47nm×55nm beam with 1.7·10 8 ph/s<br />

at 21 keV (monochromatic, Si 111) was generated<br />

using silicon NFLs in crossed geometry<br />

(Fig. 1(b)) at a distance of 47 m from an undulator<br />

source (ID13) at the European Synchrotron<br />

Radiation Facility [3]. This beam is not diffrac-<br />

tion li<strong>mit</strong>ed, and smaller beams may become available in the future. Lenses made<br />

of more transparent materials, such as boron or diamond, could yield an increase in<br />

flux of one order of magnitude and have a larger numerical aperture. For these NFLs,<br />

diffraction li<strong>mit</strong>s below 20 nm are conceivable [2]. Using adiabatically focusing lenses<br />

[4], the diffraction li<strong>mit</strong> can in principle be pushed below 5 nm. The fundamental li<strong>mit</strong><br />

to focusing with refractive optics is discussed [4].<br />

Synchrotron-Radiation Computed Laminography - A New Method for the<br />

Tree-Dimensional Imaging of Flat Objects<br />

Republic<br />

In the paper the methodical development and first instrumental realization of computed<br />

laminography with synchrotron radiation is described. Synchrotron radiation<br />

computed Laminography, in the following called SRCL, combines tomosynthesis principles<br />

with the specific advantages of synchrotron radiation, such as high brilliance<br />

(allowing contrast improvement by working with monochromatic radiation), high partial<br />

coherence (enabling to use phase contrast enhancement due to Fresnel diffraction),<br />

high spatial resolutions with electronic detector systems with fast read-out and high<br />

dynamic range. CT consists in the acquisition of a series of projection radiographs<br />

for different rotation angles around the tomographic axis, which is set perpendicular<br />

to the trans<strong>mit</strong>ted beam direction. By applying suitable reconstruction algorithms, a<br />

3d image of the sample volume can be reconstructed, providing that the entire sample<br />

width was imaged. Since the field of view of digital 2D detectors is li<strong>mit</strong>ed CT<br />

has to accept a compromise between spatial resolution and maximum lateral object<br />

width a li<strong>mit</strong>ation, which often hinders applications of CT for non-destructive testing<br />

of micro systems, e.g. the inspection of the bump bonds of flip-chip bonded micro devices.<br />

Contrary to computed tomography, for flat objects the resolution realizable by<br />

SRCL does not depend on theobject size. By some simple modification of the scanning<br />

geometry and adaptation of tomosynthesis reconstruction algorithms, SRCL enables<br />

non-destructively imaging of the 3D-structure of flat, laterally extended objects such<br />

as devices of micro system technology. In the talk we discuss the novel instrumental<br />

set-up, based on a new concept also compared to laboratory tomosynthesis set-ups. By<br />

a series of first experimental examples we show the feasibility of the method for imaging<br />

with both, white and monochromatic radiation and high spatial resolution down to<br />

submicron scale. The comparison to phantom samples demonstrates the methodical<br />

and instrumental feasibilities, the selected examples illustrate the methods potential<br />

for non-destructive testing and quality assurance.

Supraleitende In-Vakuum-Undulatoren <strong>mit</strong> kleinem Gap und kurzer Periodenlänge bieten<br />

wegen ihres im Vergleich zu Permanentmagnetundulatoren gleicher Periodenlänge<br />

höheren erreichbaren Magnetfeldes die Möglichkeit, an Speicherringen <strong>mit</strong>tlerer Energie<br />

hochbrillante Undulatorstrahlung bis in den harten Röntgenbereich zu erzeugen.<br />

Ihre rein elektrische Durchstimmbarkeit ohne mechanische Verstellung ist ein weiterer<br />

Vorzug.<br />

Seit einem Jahr wird an ANKA der weltweit erste supraleitende Undulator an einem<br />

nachgewiesen und eine Reihe von Experimenten zur Charakterisierung der<br />

erzeugten Strahlung und zu Wärmeeinträgen in die Kaltmasse durch den gespeicherten<br />

Elektronenstrahl durchgeführt werden.<br />

Nach diesem erfolgreichen Test wird an ANKA eine zweite Generation supraleitender<br />

Insertion Devices entwickelt. Diese neue Generation umfasst supraleitende Undulatoren<br />

<strong>mit</strong> elektrischer Feldfehlerkompensation (shimming), elektrisch kontrollierbarer Polarisation<br />

In the last decade neutron tomography has become an impor-<br />

tant part in neutron physics due to a number of applications in<br />

material research, non-destructive testing, material design, material<br />

testing, archeology, biological systems, imaging of rapid<br />

processes, etc. The main developing work on this subject was<br />

done by improving geometry, spatial resolution, szintillator materials<br />

and detectors, based on the main imaging contrast of<br />

attenuation of neutrons by materials. Experimental conditions,<br />

small or large samples, low or high absorbing materials, possible<br />

activation of parts of the sample, etc., demand very often<br />

different techniques or imaging signals, which are not based on<br />

attenuation contrast. In the last few years a number new imaging<br />

signals such as time resolved CT, energy dispersive contrast<br />

CT, phase contrast CT, refraction contrast CT (which is topological<br />

also a phase contrast), small angle scattering contrast<br />

CT , CT with monochromatic neutrons were investigated and<br />

carefully proved to be suited for neutron tomography [1] [6].(see<br />

Fig.1). Other, new techniques will be developed and applied<br />

to condensed matter physics. The wave nature and the spin of<br />

the neutron will bring further CT- techniques such as Fourier-<br />

CT and polarized neutron CT , which will enlarge the field of<br />

application of n-Ct [7], [8]. The future of neutron tomography,<br />

however, will belong to such new techniques and therefore interact with neutron scattering<br />

(as well as x-ray scattering ) methods in a very sustainable and fruitful way.<br />

Today the majority of radiographic imaging applications is based on the attenuation<br />

of the radiation inside the object. However, the imaging of the phase shift induced by<br />

the object can provide substantially new and otherwise not accessible information. In<br />

the case of x-rays, phase contrast imaging yields an increased contrast for biological<br />

samples, and thus is of potential interest for medical applications [1,2]. Neutron phase<br />

measurements, on the other hand, have a long and distinguished history in the exploration<br />

of the fundamental properties of quantum mechanics [3]. Thus, a combination<br />

of phase sensitive measurements with a neutron imaging approach has the potential of<br />

providing two- or even three-dimensionally resolved spatial information on the quantum<br />

mechanical interactions of massive particles with matter.<br />

Here we report how a setup consisting of three transmission gratings can yield quantitative<br />

differential neutron phase contrast images [4]. As opposed to existing techniques,<br />

the method requires only little spatial and chromatic coherence. Since separate phase<br />

and attenuation images are obtained simultaneously, our method provides additional<br />

information through neutron phase-sensitive imaging, but yet is fully compatible with<br />

conventional neutron radiography. The high efficiency of our method, compared to the<br />

other existing methods (pinhole geometry, crystal interferometer and analyzer crystal),<br />

reduces the measurement time for 3D neutron phase contrast tomography by more than<br />

two orders of magnitude and opens up the way for imaging the phase shifts induced<br />

by other than the nuclear interaction as shown in Fig. 1.<br />

white scale bar corresponds to 5 mm. Due to similar neutron<br />

capture cross sections and incoherent scattering lengths, a<br />

difference in attenuation of the neutron beam in the rods is<br />

hardly recognized (a). In the phase image it is interesting<br />

that Ti has a brighter colour compared to the background<br />

whereas Cu appears darker. This is due to the negative neutron<br />

scattering length density of Ti and consequently a negative<br />

In the framework of the Max Planck initiative “Materials and Solid-State Research at<br />

the New Neutron Source FRM II” a novel neutron/X-ray-contrast reflectometer for<br />

materials science, N-REX + , is currently being commissioned at FRM II. It enables<br />

the simultaneous characterization of samples with both neutrons and X-rays, which<br />

is especially interesting for in-situ studies of time-dependent processes. Another focus<br />

lies on the further development of the spin-echo resolved grazing incidence scattering<br />

(SERGIS) technique, as well as its utilization in a routine manner for the study of<br />

in-plane correlations on surfaces, interfaces and thin films. Complementary to conventional<br />

angle-resolved diffraction techniques, this novel spin-encoded real-space method<br />

is well suited for the study of length scales from the nanometer up into the micron<br />

range. No in-plane collimation of the beam is required, so that a remarkably high<br />

neutron flux is available at the detector for all in-plane length-scales to be examined.<br />

Systems to be investigated at N-REX + with this new characterization method<br />

range from self-assembled and artificial nanostructures over rough and modulated surfaces<br />

and interfaces to polymers and biological membranes. First experimental results<br />

demonstrating the diverse capabilities of the instrument will be presented.

In response to the development of new materials and the application of materials and<br />

components in new technologies the direct measurement, calculation and evaluation of<br />

textures and residual stresses has gained worldwide significance in recent years. Nondestructive<br />

analysis for phase specific residual stresses and textures is only possible by<br />

means of diffraction methods. In order to cater for the development of these analytical<br />

techniques the new Materials Science Diffractometer STRESS-SPEC has been installed<br />

recently at the new reactor FRM-II to be equally applied to texture or residual stress<br />

analyses by virtue of its flexible configuration and high neutron flux at the sample<br />

position [1]. The results of our first user experiments show that small gauge volumes<br />

down to 1x1x1 mm 3 can be easily used for residual stress measurements. However,<br />

with measurement points deeply embedded in components the primary slit has to be<br />

positioned far away from the scattering center thus causing a poor definition of the<br />

nominal gauge volume. Here we present the results of simulations where the primary<br />

slit is replaced by a parabolic focussing guide which provides a good definition of a<br />

small gauge volume even deep within components and a substantial flux increase at<br />

the sample position.<br />

In addition the combination of intensity increase provided by the focussing guide<br />

together with the extension of the existing PSD-detector will enable local texture measurements<br />

[3] in a short timescales and also 3-D texture mapping is realistic. Currently<br />

even with the high flux of STRESS-SPEC the measuring time per pole figure amounts<br />

up to 14 hours using a gauge volume of 2x2x2 mm 3 . Simulations are presented to<br />

demonstrate the possible gains using two or three position sensitive detectors, all installed<br />

at the same position in 2θ with different χ angles. In this way more orientations<br />

are detected at the same time. Together with the focussing guide due to the neutron<br />

flux increase and the reduced number of necessary sample orientations local texture<br />

measurements with high spatial resolution will be possible.<br />

The in-pile positron source NEPOMUC (Neutron Induced Positron Source Munich) of<br />

the Munich research reactor FRM-II delivers a low-energy positron beam of highest<br />

intensity. The primary kinetic energy of the positrons can be varied in the range between<br />

15 eV and 1 keV. The maximum yield of positrons was up to 5·10 8 moderated<br />

positrons per second. New instruments for beam diagnostics have been implemented<br />

for the determination of the positron intensity and for positron beam profile measurements.<br />

In the present arrangement of NEPOMUCs instrumentation the mono-energetic positron<br />

beam is magnetically guided to various experiments: a coincident Doppler broadening<br />

The Free-Electron Laser in Hamburg (FLASH) is operated in the “self-amplified spontaneous<br />

emission” (SASE) mode and delivers sub-picosecond radiation pulses, with<br />

gigawatt peak powers. At present, lasing has been observed down to about 13 nm<br />

in the fundamental, the shortest wavelength ever achieved with a free electron laser.<br />

User experiments started in August 2005 and were carried out between 45 nm and 13<br />

nm. For these wavelengths, FEL pulse intensities from typical 5 µJ up to more than<br />

50 µJ have been obtained with pulse lengths between 20 and 50 fs. FEL wavefronts<br />

observations have been recorded using a Hartmann sensor (by Imagine Optic). The<br />

Hartmann principle is based on a pinhole array, which divides the incoming beam into<br />

a large number of sub-rays monitored in intensity and position of individual spots.<br />

The identification of the local slope of the incident wavefront makes the aberrations<br />

from a perfect spherical wavefront visible. Ray tracing backwards accesses the beam<br />

focal point in size and position. The intense and coherent vacuum-ultraviolet FEL<br />

beam of various repetition rates leads to unique requirements for the wavefront sensor<br />

setup. The wavefront studies were carried out in the context of commissioning of<br />

the experimental stations. A further goal is to provide an online diagnostic tool for<br />

experiments which need to determine beam parameters which can vary with the shot<br />

to shot characteristic of the FEL, e.g. the focal spot size. We report measurements of<br />

the metrology of flat and curved mirrors at FLASH beamlines. The effects of solid and<br />

gaseous filters are selectively described in the wavelength regime of 10 nm to 32 nm.<br />

The use of wavefront measurements to provide reliable machine parameter is discussed.<br />

The wavefront sensor proved to be a valuable tool to determine the FEL beam quality<br />

and the performance of optical elements, filters and diagnostic tools.

Inelastic x-ray scattering (IXS) spectroscopy with meV resolution is one of the major<br />

techniques for studying vibrational dynamics in solids, liquids, and biological molecules.<br />

X-ray monochromators and analyzers with meV-resolution are the main optical components<br />

of the spectrometers. Single-crystal and multiple-crystal techniques for the meVmonochromatization<br />

and the spectral analysis of x-rays have been developed during<br />

the last decades. These techniques have a basic general property: the higher the required<br />

energy-resolution, the higher indexed Bragg reflections have to be used, and thus<br />

photons of higher energy E are needed. By this reason, photons with E > 20 keV<br />

are typically used in IXS experiments. This tendency is, however, in dissonance with<br />

the increasing demand for more spectral flux in IXS experiments and the fact that undulator<br />

based synchrotron radiation sources generate less photons in the high-energy<br />

spectral range. Using high-energy photons allows IXS spectroscopy only at high-energy<br />

machines like ESRF, APS, and SPring-8, but not at future powerful medium-energy<br />

facilities such as DIAMOND, SOLEIL, NSLS-II, etc., and future X-FELs including the<br />

European X-FEL in Hamburg.<br />

To overcome these problems, and thus to broaden the potential of the IXS spectroscopy,<br />

a concept of an IXS spectrometer with meV and sub-meV resolution has<br />

been proposed for x-rays in the medium-energy spectral range (5-10 keV). It is based<br />

on a principle of monochromatization and spectral analysis, which exploits the effect<br />

of angular dispersion in asymmetric Bragg diffraction. One of its beneficial features<br />

is that higher energy-resolutions are achieved at lower(!) photon energies, typically<br />

E < 10 keV, a tendency, which is consistent with better performance of x-ray undulators<br />

at these energies.<br />

The realization of the monochromatization principle requires an arrangement of three<br />

crystals, playing the role of a collimator (C), a dispersive element (D), and a wavelength<br />

selector (W) in a three bounce CDW monochromator. The CDW monochromator<br />

combined with a paraboloidal mirror could be used as a high-resolution analyzer of<br />

scattered radiation from a sample.<br />

We will present the design of the CDW monochromator, and the results of the first<br />

tests of the CDW monochromator for 9.1 keV x-rays. Two CDW monochromators are<br />

used in the experiments, with the second one as an analyzer, to measure the effect of<br />

monochromatization. A 2.2 meV spectral bandwidth is demonstrated.

Polyimide (Kapton) is a highly radiation and thermally resistant polymer. For this<br />

reason, it is one of the preferred insulating materials in technical devices exposed to<br />

high-dose radiation. This not only the case for high-energy photons, but also for swift<br />

heavy ions. The latter might be a problem in the heavy ion synchrotron in the future<br />

ion-beam facility FAIR at GSI, with its very high ion fluxes (10E12 ions/pulse) at high<br />

energies (10 GeV/u). In order to simulate long-term use of Kapton in such devices, foils<br />

were exposed to beams of various ions at ∼10 MeV/u [1]. Ion beam induced material<br />

degradation was investigated by means of UV/Vis-spectroscopy for light transmission,<br />

by IR-spectroscopy for structural degradation, by dielectric spectroscopy for changes<br />

in electrical properties, and by mechanical strength measurements.<br />

It turns out that the data obtained by the different techniques can be scaled by the<br />

total absorbed dose. Up to a dose of about 1 MGy, the material modifications are less<br />

pronounced. However, above this threshold the properties decay significantly. Surprisingly,<br />

the dielectric spectroscopy data do not follow this trend. This method seems<br />

to be sensitive for a different degradation process. The figure shows degradation of<br />

Kapton exposed to beams of various ionic species. The change of the different material<br />

properties is normalized to pristine Kapton. The threshold behaviour, shown by the<br />

different characterization techniques, can well be seen. The underlying physical and<br />

chemical processes, such as bond scission and carbonization, are discussed.<br />

Under wintry conditions, middle distillate fuels can clog the filters by precipitating<br />

large waxy crystals and thereby prevent engine operations. The copolymers consisting<br />

of crystalline and amorphous segments can interact favorably with waxes (long-chain<br />

CnH2n+2 alkanes or simply Cn) and modify the crystal morphology to smaller units.<br />

The wax-copolymer interaction in solution is rather complex and is not yet fully understood.<br />

Because the morphology of the common wax-copolymer aggregates strongly<br />

depends on the precipitation temperatures of both components, a good knowledge of<br />

the copolymer self-assembling behavior in solution is required first of all. Therefore,<br />

these copolymers are also of much interest in basic research. Several polymer architectures<br />

with a combination of crystalline and amorphous sequences have been studied<br />

for determination of their self-assembly and wax crystal modification properties.<br />

We report here the case of the poly(ethylene-butene) random copolymers and syndiotactic-polypropylene<br />

-block-poly(ethylene-co-propylene) diblock copolymers. Their<br />

self-assembling or common aggregation with waxes yields in hydrocarbon solutions<br />

complex morphologies with characteristic lengths covering four orders of magnitude,<br />

from 10 µm to 1 nm. These morphologies evolving either separately or as hierarchical<br />

multilevel structures could be fully analysed by three small-angle neutron scattering<br />

techniques namely, the conventional pin-hole SANS, the focusing-mirror SANS and<br />

the double-crystal diffractometry (USANS) covering a Q range from 3x10 −5 - 0.2 ˚A −1 .<br />

Microscopy techniques have been complementarily used in order to visualize the morphologies<br />

formed.

Scanning microscopy is performed in combination with small angle x-ray scattering<br />

(SAXS), exploiting the SAXS contrast inside the sample. This is especially useful for<br />

samples, where classical absorption tomography fails. The result is an invasive but<br />

non-destructive analytic tool to determine the local microstructure on the nanometre<br />

scale inside a specimen. The tomographic reconstruction yields the SAXS pattern in<br />

the direction of the rotation axis at each location of a virtual slice through a sample.<br />

In case of rotationally symmetric specimen the full reciprocal space information can be<br />

reconstructed [1]. These reconstructed SAXS patterns can be analysed in order to track<br />

the variations of the nanostructure inside the sample. Many nanostructured soft-matter<br />

materials exhibit rotational symmetry, e.g. natural fibres, polymer fibres, wood. The<br />

method is demonstrated by data from polyethylene rods made by injection moulding<br />

[2], a freeze dried arabidopsis flower stalk, and rat tail collagen. The experiments were<br />

performed at the beamline BW4 at the DORIS III storage ring of HASYLAB / DESY.<br />

The monochromatic synchrotron radiation was focused by parabolic refractive lenses<br />

made of beryllium [3]. In case of a polyethylene rod a spatial resolution of ≈80 µm has<br />

been resolved in the reconstructed slice. A 2D detector at distances >1800 mm allowed<br />

to cover a q-range from 0.06 nm −1 to 2 nm −1 . The primary, the directly trans<strong>mit</strong>ted,<br />

and the scattered intensity were measured for projections of slices through the specimen<br />

over a full rotation of the sample to allow for tomographic reconstruction. Currently,<br />

single pattern acquisition times are of 20 s up to 360 s, this leads to days of required<br />

beamtime for one tomogram. Technical developments are discussed to minimize such<br />

Nanokristalline Leichtmetallhydride werden für die reversible Speicherung von Wasserstoff<br />

eingesetzt. Eines der interessantesten Speichermaterialien ist das Magnesiumhydrid,<br />

das eine Wasserstoffspeicherkapazität von bis zu 7.6 Gewichtsprozenten besitzt.<br />

Die Wasserstoff-Absorptions- und Desorptionskinetik von MgH2 ist bekannt, ebenso<br />

die Zyklier- und thermische Stabilität. Die Sorptionseigenschaften werden durch die<br />

Verwendung von Metalloxid-Katalysatoren, wie Fe3O4, Nb2O3 und TiO2, deutlich verbessert.<br />

Allerdings wurden strukturelle Änderungen während dieser Prozesse sowie die<br />

Funktion und Verteilung verschiedener Additive bisher kaum untersucht.<br />

In dieser Arbeit wurden<br />

Änderungen in der Struktur Hochenergie-gemahlener Me-<br />

tallhydride während der Absorption und Desorption von Wasserstoff ohne und unter<br />

Zusatz von Additiven <strong>mit</strong> Hilfe der Neutronen- (SANS/USANS) und Röntgen-<br />

(ultra)kleinwinkelstreuung (SAXS/USAXS) untersucht. Die SANS/USANS-Experimente<br />

wurden an den Instrumenten SANS-2 und DCD der Geesthachter Neutronenforschungseinrichtung<br />

(GeNF) durchgeführt, SAXS/USAXS Messungen am BW4 Instrument<br />

am Hamburger Synchrotronstrahlungslabor (HASYLAB). Um Informationen über die<br />

Funktion und Verteilung verschiedener Metalloxid-Additive zu erhalten, wurden zusätzlich<br />

Anomale SAXS (ASAXS) Untersuchungen unter Verwendung verschiedener Energien<br />

nahe der Absorptionskanten der Katalysator-Metalle am B1/JUSIFA Instrument<br />

am HASYLAB vorgenommen.<br />

Größenverteilungen von Inhomogenitäten <strong>mit</strong> Dimensionen zwischen 1 nm und bis zu<br />

20 µm wurden als Funktion des Wasserstoffgehalts und der Anzahl der durchgeführten<br />

Zyklen berechnet, um den Einfluss des Zyklierens auf die Mikrostruktur zu bestimmen<br />

und um Informationen über den Hydridbildungsmechanismus zu erhalten.<br />

Die Resultate weisen auf eine Kornvergröberung und das Aufbrechen von Partikeln<br />

<strong>mit</strong> Radien größer 10 µm <strong>mit</strong> fortschreitendem Zyklierprozess hin. Signifikante Effekte<br />

auf die Mikrostruktur wurden ebenfalls bei der Verwendung verschiedener Metalloxid-<br />

Katalysatoren und Mischhydride erhalten, sowie bei der Variation der Mahlparameter.<br />

Unterschiede in den aus den SANS und SAXS Streukurven berechneten Größenverteilungen<br />

lassen auf die Verteilung des Wasserstoffs zurückschließen. Bei den ASAXS-<br />

Untersuchungen wurde für die Additive Fe3O4 and TiO2 eine energieabhängige Streuung<br />

gefunden.<br />

Die Ergebnisse tragen zu einem besseren Verständnis der Sorptionsmechanismen in<br />

nanokristallinen Leichtmetallhydriden bei und liefern nützliche Informationen für die<br />

Entwicklung dieses neuen Typs von Wasserstoffspeichermaterialien.

LiCoO2 with a cation-ordered rocksalt superstructure is the standard cathode material<br />

in Li-ion batteries for high-energy applications. The partial replacement of Co<br />

by other 3d-transitional metals is an intensively studied approach to enhance thermal<br />

stability of this cathode material, to reduce costs or to improve cycle stability. The<br />

effect of annealing temperature on the structure and the electrochemical properties of<br />

Ni-substituted material was previously reported [1]. In addition, a model for the conditioning<br />

of Li(Ni,Co)O2 during the first charge-discharge cycles was proposed based<br />

on in situ synchrotron diffraction at beamline B2, HASYLAB, Germany [2]. The advantages<br />

of this synchrotron study, in situinvestigation and high angular resolution,<br />

are now combined with the benefits of neutron diffraction: Li-ions become visible, the<br />

occupation factor of the oxygen site can be refined and Ni versus Co can be distinguished.<br />

In a first step two series of Li1−x(Ni0.8Co0.2)O2 samples are studied by ex<br />

situ neutron powder diffraction at SPODI, FRM II. One sample has a low degree of<br />

cation disorder and shows good electrochemical properties, another sample has a high<br />

degree of disorder and a poor Li-extraction and Li-reinsertion behaviour. Both samples<br />

are studied as-prepared, charged to x = 0.5 and after one complete charge-discharge<br />

cycle. These experiments contribute to establish in situ neutron diffraction on Li-ion<br />

batteries as a complementary tool to our in situ synchrotron diffraction studies [3].<br />

Analyses of the crystallographic preferred orientations (CPO, textures) of mineral<br />

phases contribute significantly to the quantitative characterisation of the anisotropic<br />

physical rock properties, as well as to the understanding of the mechanisms of fabric<br />

development. Most rocks in the Earths crust and mantle are relatively coarse-grained<br />

and are composites of several mineral phases, usually of low crystal symmetry. In addition,<br />

geological structures are often heterogenous and show complicated structures<br />

due to polyphase deformation. Thus, volume-related texture analyses of rocks require<br />

(a) the measurement of large sample volumes, (b) high d-resolution in the diffraction<br />

patterns, and (c) the measurement of large sample series. Due to low absorption in<br />

matter, neutrons are especially suitable for diffraction experiments of large sample volumes.<br />

Both the SKAT time-of-flight diffractometer at the IBR-2 reactor in Dubna and<br />

the SV-7 instrument at the FRJ-2 reactor in Jülich enabled the measurement of large<br />

sample volumes up to 50x50x50 mm 3 . While the SKAT instrument offers a high resolution<br />

of ∆d/d = 0.5 % to the best, the long measuring periods of the SV-7 instrument<br />

allowed the measurement of large sample series. Many innovating projects could be<br />

realized, e.g: (1) The systematic structure-related analysis of carbonate rocks revealed<br />

new texture types and allowed a differentiated interpretation of the deformation history<br />

and the deformation mechanisms of rocks, as well as the understanding of weathering<br />

processes. (2) First quantitative textures analysis of granites showed CPOs for the<br />

quartz and plagioclase phase. In addition to new ideas on the fabric development in<br />

granites, the results are important for predicting anisotropic crack. development, for<br />

the safety of repositories, and for the initiation of fluid pathways for geothermal power<br />

plants. (3) The texture analysis of rock salt from salt dome structures showed unexpected<br />

results, which will strongly contribute to the understanding of the mechanisms<br />

of salt diapirism and, therefore, for the development of concepts of radioactive waste<br />

repositories in Germany. (4) The quantitative correlation of experimentally determined<br />

and texture-derived anisotropic elastic rock properties is helpful for the understanding<br />

of seismic cross sections. (5) Correlation of shape preferred orientations and CPOs of<br />

lava flows in dependence on viscosity, temperature, chemical composition and degree<br />

of crystallization may contribute to the understanding of emplacement mechanisms<br />

of lava flows. – The above examples demonstrate the importance of neutron texture<br />

analyses for the geoscience community. Due to increasing requests for beam time, it<br />

is essential to provide measuring capabilities in the future, and to refine and further<br />

develop neutron diffraction instruments for rock texture analyses.

We have investigated the magnetization arrangement in an in-plane stripe pattern with<br />

alternating exchange bias domains. The stripe pattern was produced by ion bombardment<br />

induced magnetic patterning, which changed locally the exchange bias direction<br />

at the ferromagnet/ antiferromagnet interface, but not the ferro- or antiferromagnetic<br />

properties of the Co70Fe30 and Mn83Ir17 layers, respectively. For the analysis of the<br />

magnetic domain structure evolution along the hysteresis loop we used a combination<br />

of experimental techniques: magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE), Kerr microscopy,<br />

polarized neutron reflectometry (PNR), and off-specular scattering of polarized neutrons<br />

with polarization analysis. Instead of a perfect antiparallel alignment we found<br />

that the magnetization in neighboring stripes is periodically canted with respect to<br />

the stripe axis so that the net magnetization of the ferromagnetic film turns almost<br />

perpendicular to the stripes. At the same time the projection of the magnetization<br />

vector onto the stripe axis has a periodically alternating sign. In Fig.1 the longitudinal<br />

MOKE hysteresis loop and in Fig. 2 specular PNR curves are displayed. In<br />

this measurements the non-spin-flip-reflectivities are almost degenerate and the spin<br />

asymmetry is SA≈0. The experimental observations are explained and quantitatively<br />

described within the frame of a phenomenological model. The model defines conditions<br />

which can be used for tailoring nano- and micro-patterned EB systems with different<br />

types of magnetic order. We gratefully acknowledge financial support by the DFG via<br />

Understanding the microscopic mechanisms governing fast magnetic switching processes<br />

is of high fundamental interest as well as of vital technological importance. A<br />

macrospin picture often fails to adequately describe the situation in extended systems.<br />

A detailed study of the magnetization dynamics in complex magnetic materials thus<br />

requires a real-space mapping of the magnetization distribution in the ground state and<br />

of its time evolution. Imaging these transient magnetization distributions on a subnanosecond<br />

time scale is an experimental challenge, which can be successfully addressed<br />

by time-resolved x-ray photoemission microscopy (XPEEM). XPEEM is known as an<br />

extremely versatile tool to image static domain patterns, combining element selectivity<br />

with strong magnetic contrast and high lateral resolution. The choice of different magnetic<br />

contrast modes with circularly or linearly polarized light provides access to both<br />

ferro- and antiferromagnetically ordered structures. The technique can be extended<br />

into the sub-nanosecond time-domain by exploiting the intrinsic time structure of the<br />

synchrotron light [1-3].<br />

We investigated the magnetodynamic behavior of small Permalloy platelets using a<br />

stroboscopic approach with synchronized magnetic field pulses (pump) via coplanar<br />

waveguides. The time resolution is li<strong>mit</strong>ed by the width of the soft x-ray pulse (probe)<br />

and can be varied via the operation mode of the storage ring between 10 and 70<br />

ps. Starting from well-defined Landau ground state domain patterns we observed a<br />

variety of reversal modes and magnetodynamic phenomena, depending on the timescale<br />

and -structure of the magnetic field pulse. For nanosecond field pulses we mainly<br />

found coherent and incoherent rotation events [4, 5]. Incoherent magnetization rotation<br />

occurs, if the exciting pulse field Hp points opposite to the sample magnetization<br />

M. It is associated with sizable magnetic stray fields, proving the importance of the<br />

magnetization torque in these fast processes. The picture changes, if we apply sub-ns<br />

magnetic field pulses. In addition to domain wall motion and rotation events, we find<br />

also collective excitations of the magnetization. These modes have frequencies in the<br />

GHz regime and are determined by the shape of the platelets. Exciting the magnetic<br />

system close to the resonance frequency of one of these modes leads to an interesting<br />

self-trapping process of the modes [6].<br />

Antiferromagnetic coupling between the oxide layers in Fe/Fe-oxide superlattices<br />

We have studied the magnetic structure of multilayer systems consisting of Fe and<br />

native Fe-oxide. The Fe layers have been produced by magnetron sputtering. Native<br />

oxide layers on the Fe were prepared by subsequent dosage of oxygen into the chamber.<br />

The samples have been analysed in-situ by nuclear resonant scattering (NRS) of<br />

synchrotron radiation. Ultrathin layers of 57 Fe are used to probe the magnetic structure<br />

of the Fe and the Fe-oxide layers with very high depth resolution. Surface oxide<br />

layers coupled to the metallic Fe appeared to be non-magnetic at room temperature.<br />

After deposition of another Fe layer one observes a magnetically ordered component<br />

in the Fe-oxide layer that increases with growing thickness of the iron capping layer.<br />

This results in a relatively high magnetization of these buried oxide layers [1]. In an<br />

Fe/Fe-oxide superlattice we discovered an antiferromagnetic (AFM) alignment of the<br />

oxide layers [2]. This became evident by a strong superstructure (half-order) Bragg<br />

peak in the nuclear resonant reflectivty of a Fe/ 57 Fe-oxide multilayer. If an external<br />

magnetic field of 1 T is applied this peak vanishes. These observations point to a pure<br />

magnetic origin of the superstructure and hence to an antiferromagnetically ordered<br />

spin arrangement within the lattice of the Fe-oxide layers. Quite remarkably, the coupling<br />

angle between the metallic iron and the component in the oxide that participates<br />

in the AFM order is about 90 ◦ . This suggests the existence of a spin-flop phase that is<br />

stabilized by the magnetization of the metallic Fe layers. The spin-flop transition, i. e.,<br />

a sudden reorientation of the layer moments upon application of an external field has<br />

in fact been found. Such an antiferromagnetic coupling has so far only been observed<br />

for multilayers consisiting of ferromagnetic layers separated by non-magnetic spacer<br />

layers that mediated the interaction between the neighbouring ferromagnetic layers.<br />

This is in contrast to our system where the metallic iron layers seem to mediate the<br />

coupling between the oxide layers.<br />

Despite their small size, higher flies (fruitflies and blowflies) have a sophisticated respiratory<br />

gas exchange system based not only on diffusion as generally assumed - but<br />

also on mechanical ventilation of the tracheal system [1]. The mechanism has largely<br />

been ignored, as the ventilatory movements are invisble from outside. The periodic<br />

volume changes of the air sacs and of heart pulses are visualised by x-ray videos in<br />

Drosophila and Calliphora respectively. Intratracheal pressure pulses measured in the<br />

mesothorax coincide with pulsations of the air sacs in the head and with anterograde<br />

pulses of the heart shown in x-ray-videos. Parallel measurements of pressure pulses<br />

with x-ray videos of heart pulsations reveal that the enlarged conical heart chamber in<br />

the anterior abdomen is the main motor of periodic hemolymph shift between anterior<br />

body and abdomen. It works as a pressure pump during forward (anterograde) pulsations<br />

and as a suction pump during backward (retrograde) pulses.<br />

future applications at PETRA-III<br />

An important development in structural biology is the investigation of macromolecular<br />

complexes of increasing size such as the molecular architecture of muscle sarcomeres.<br />

At the EMBL Hamburg Unit it has been possible to determine the structure of the<br />

N-terminal assembly complex of titin, the largest gene product of the human genome,<br />

which comprises up to 38,000 residues in its largest isoform.<br />

Structural proteomics projects like the Mtb initiative, coordinated by our institute,<br />

form another trend. This initiative is targeting proteins from the Mycobacterium tuberculosis<br />

and is aiming to identify novel lead compounds to combat tuberculosis. Such<br />

projects call for high-throughput techniques and integrated approaches including X-ray<br />

crystallography and X-ray small angle scattering.<br />

These developments are reflected in our concept for an Integrated Life Science Centre<br />

built and operated by the EMBL at PETRA-III, the planned 3rd generation synchrotron<br />

on the DESY site in Hamburg. The centre will comprise two beamlines for<br />

Macromolecular X-ray crystallography (MX) and one for Small Angle X-ray Scattering<br />

(SAXS) all linked through a joint sample preparation and storage facility.<br />

One of the MX beamlines will be dedicated to experimental phase determination over<br />

a broad energy range, the other optimised for measurements of protein crystals with<br />

micrometer size scattering volume. The main focus of the SAXS beamline will be<br />

the study of protein solutions with ultra-small volume or concentration and kinetic<br />

experiments.<br />

The beamlines will be integrated into a highly automated pipeline ranging from biophysical<br />

and biochemical protein characterisation to high throughput crystallisation,<br />

automated crystal mounting, centering, data collection and data interpretation allowing<br />

large numbers of samples to be investigated. The automation of most of these steps<br />

is being tested and implemented already at the existing facilities at the DORIS storage<br />

ring.<br />

We expect to make the facilities successively available to the international scientific<br />

community with the planned beginning of user operation of PETRA-III in 2009.

Structure of the Protein Kinase MARK/Par-1: Catalytic and UBA Domain<br />

MAP/Microtubule affinity regulating kinases (MARKs) are Ser/Thr kinases that phosphorylate<br />

the microtubule-associated proteins tau, MAP2 and MAP4 [1]. Phosphorylation<br />

of the neuronal MAP tau at serine S262 leads to detachment of tau from the surface<br />

of microtubules and to destabilization of microtubules [2]. Phosphorylated tau can aggregate<br />

and form filamentous structures. Formation of paired helical filaments (PHFs)<br />

and neurofibrillary tangles is a hallmark of Alzheimer disease. The closely related kinase<br />

Par-1 is important for the development of cell polarity [3].<br />

The human kinome contains four MARK isoforms. A stable fragment of MARK2,<br />

containing the catalytic and the ubiquitin-associated (UBA) domain, was identified by<br />

li<strong>mit</strong>ed proteolysis. Structures of the wild type construct and of two mutants, K82R and<br />

T208A/S212A, were determined by x-ray crystallography using synchrotron radiation<br />

of DORIS at DESY, Hamburg [4]. Mutation of K82 to arginine inhibits the kinase<br />

activity by interference with nucleotide binding. T208 is the primary phosphorylation<br />

site in the activation loop which controls access of the substrate. S212 was also found to<br />

be phosphorylated in MARK2 from brain. These two residues were mutated to alanine<br />

to mimic the unphosphorylated state.<br />

All three constructs crystallized in space group P61, in two distinct, but similar crystal<br />

forms, which differ by the length of the c-axis: 106.0 ± 0.37 ˚A (sd, n = 15) for the<br />

double mutant, 99.7 ± 0.23 ˚A (n = 8) for the K82R mutant (both forms observed for<br />

the wild type). The catalytic domain exhibits the typical bi-lobed structure with the<br />

cleft wide opened. Two molecules form a symmetric dimer, with the catalytic clefts<br />

facing each other in the center of the dimer. The UBA domain is attached via a taut<br />

linker to the large lobe of the kinase domain and leans against a hydrophobic patch on<br />

the distal side of the small lobe. The UBA structure is unusual in that the orientation<br />

of its third helix is inverted, relative to previous structures.<br />

Data were collected at the X13 Consortium beamline at HASYLAB (DESY, Hamburg).<br />

We thank W.Rypniewski, M.Perbandt, and J. Müller for help with the beamline<br />

facilities and for stimulating discussions.<br />

Biological connective tissues like bone or wood are natural composite materials which<br />

are hierarchically structured from the nanometer level to macroscopic length scales<br />

[1, 2]. As a result, spatial variation and optimization of structural and mechanical<br />

properties occurs at all levels, including the length scale of 0.1 µm - 10 µm. To obtain<br />

information at this level on the micrometer level variation in the average nanostructural<br />

properties, structural and chemical techniques like small angle X - ray scattering<br />

(SAXS), wide - angle X - ray diffraction (WAXD) and X - ray fluorescence (XRF) can<br />

be combined with micron sized beams, scanning setups, and thin sample sections to<br />

generate two-dimensional spatial maps of nanostructural variations over sizes up to 50<br />

to 100 µm. Complementary to the high spatial resolution available with a synchrotron<br />

X - ray microbeam, time - resolved in - situ mechanical testing enables us to track<br />

temporal variations at the molecular and supramolecular level induced, for example, by<br />

the application of mechanical stress. In this contribution, we report some recent work<br />

carried out by our group along these two lines. High resolution (1 µm) scanning X -<br />

ray diffraction and scattering enabled us to reconstruct the 3 - dimensional crystallite<br />

orientation in the individual lamellae of compact human osteonal bone, revealing a<br />

right - handed spiralling fiber pattern [3]. Variations in the mineral particle size and<br />

resolution could be studied at the level of individual bone packets. Two - dimensional<br />

maps of the total SAXS intensity provided much higher contrast at the lamellar level<br />

than microradiography measurements. The fibrillar level mechanics of parallel fibered<br />

bone revealed a shearing mechanism at the nanometer level, between stiff fibers and<br />

an intervening extrafibrillar matrix [4]. We highlight SAXS and WAXD measurements<br />

of wood and bone obtained recently at the newly commissioned SAXS/WAXS/XRF<br />

beamline at BESSY, specially designed for scanning microbeam experiments on biological<br />

samples.<br />

Inelastic Nuclear Resonant Scattering as a Local Probe for the Dynamics<br />

of Iron-Sulfur Proteins<br />

Volker Schünemann 1<br />

Iron-sulfur proteins serve mainly as electron transfer proteins but act sometimes also<br />

as oxygen sensors or as enzymes. In both cases the dynamic properties of the ironsulfur<br />

centers are related to protein function. In electron transfer proteins they tune<br />

electron transfer rates. In sensor proteins as well as in iron enzymes dynamic properties<br />

influence the binding of molecules to the active iron site. The dynamic properties<br />

of these iron sites are conventionally studied by vibrational spectroscopy like Infrared<br />

(IR) or Resonance Raman (RR) spectroscopy. Inelastic nuclear resonant scattering<br />

is complementary to these methods because this technique is site selective and does<br />

not rely on optical selection rules. Therefore iron vibrations can also be detected if<br />

IR or RR fails as in the case of reduced rubredoxins which have a single tetrahedral<br />

sulfur coordinated iron site. The applicability of inelastic nuclear resonant scattering<br />

to reduced rubredoxin has been recently shown independently by two groups [1,2]. In<br />

this contribution inelastic nuclear resonant scattering experiments applied to proteins<br />

with more complicated iron sites like the 4Fe-4S site of ferredoxin will be discussed.<br />

These experiments may put the basis for future studies on the dynamics of even more<br />

complex iron sulfur centers like those in hydrogenases, enzymes which are involved in<br />

biological hydrogen production.<br />

Festkörperunterstützte Modellmembranen (tethered membranes, tBLM) stellen ein<br />

wichtiges Modellsystem zur Untersuchung von Membranen und Membranproteinen dar.<br />

Eine tBLM besteht aus einer Lipid Doppelschicht, deren proximale Schicht kovalent an<br />

eine Festkörperoberfläche angebunden ist. Meist wird als Substrat Gold gewählt, was<br />

die Charakterisierung <strong>mit</strong>tels elektrochemische Methoden zulässt. Wir haben in den<br />

letzten Jahren ein Baukastensystem entwickelt, <strong>mit</strong> dessen Hilfe verschiedene Membranarchitekturen<br />

realisiert werden können [1-2]. Die Lipid-Doppelschichten erlauben<br />

den funktionellen Einbau von Membranproteinen [3]. Die Funktion der Eingebauten<br />

Proteine kann so<strong>mit</strong> in einer quasi-natürlichen und sehr stabilen Platform untersucht<br />

werden. Anwendungsmöglichkeiten liegen im Bereich der Biosensorik, wo einzelne modifizierte<br />

Ionenkanäle als Detektionseinheiten <strong>mit</strong> hoher Selektivität verwendet werden<br />

sollen.<br />

Die molekulare Architektur der Membranen konnte <strong>mit</strong> Hilfe von Neutronenreflektivität<br />

aufgeklärt werden. Die am AND/R Spektrometer (NIST, Gaithersburg, MD)<br />

erhaltenen Ergebnisse geben wertvolle Hinweise für mögliche Verbesserungen des Systems.<br />

Phononen bilden auf direkte Weise die interatomaren Kräfte in Kristallen ab. Dementsprechend<br />

sind sie besonders geeignet, um Veränderungen innerhalb fester Systeme<br />

aufgrund von chemischen Umwandlungen, Phasenübergängen etc. zu charakterisieren.<br />

Am Beispiel von Silber-Alkalihalogeniden als Modellsystemen wird gezeigt, dass Entmischungsprozesse<br />

und ihre Mechanismen durch die zeitliche Veränderung von Phononenspektren<br />

eindeutig verfolgt werden können, was durch strukturelle Untersuchungen<br />

allein nicht möglich ist. Mit stroboskopischen Methoden können nicht nur zeitabhängige<br />

Aufspaltungen und Frequenzverschiebungen von Phononen aufgrund der Phasentrennung<br />

beobachtet werden, sondern darüber hinaus <strong>mit</strong> dem neuen Dreiachsenspektrometer<br />

PUMA auch erstmals die Linienbreiten und Lebensdauern von Gitterschwingungen,<br />

die sich im Laufe der Entmischung deutlich verändern. Zudem ist es gelungen, auch<br />

am Flugzeitspektrometer IN5 ein stroboskopisches Datenerfassungssystem zu installieren,<br />

das es erlaubt, an Pulverproben die Veränderungen der Phononenzustandsdichte<br />

während der Phasentrennung auf einer Sekunden-Zeitskala zu beobachten. Abbildung<br />

Temperaturvariation zwischen der homogenen Phase bei 350 ◦ C und der Entmischungstemperatur<br />

von 100 ◦ C. Deutlich zu erkennen ist die breite Intensitätsverteilung<br />

bei hohen Temperaturen (t< 0 und t > 180 s), während nach dem Abschrecken auf<br />

die Entmischungstemperatur (t=0) innerhalb weniger Sekunden schärfer strukturierte<br />

Spektren entstehen. Die quantitative Auswertung sowohl der Einkristall- als auch der<br />

Pulverdaten erlaubt eine detaillierte Charakterisierung des Entmischungsprozesses auf<br />

atomarer Ebene.<br />

Time-resolved and operando XAS studies on heterogeneous catalysts in<br />

liquid phase and in supercritical fluids up to 200 bar<br />

Catalyst characterization during preparation, activation and under reaction conditions<br />

is important for a targeted catalyst development. X-ray absorption spectroscopy is a<br />

valuable tool for this, since it is element-specific, information both on amorphous and<br />

crystalline materials can be gained and it can be used in situ under reaction conditions.<br />

In order to mimic the conditions of a catalyst under reaction conditions, the in situ<br />

cell should operate as closely as possible to the reaction conditions found in a catalytic<br />

reaction [1].<br />

Mostly, in situ spectroscopic studies on heterogeneous catalysts are reported at normal<br />

pressure and in gas phase. However, many heterogeneously catalysed reactions<br />

are performed in liquids or even at elevated pressure [2]. Although the study of such<br />

reactions is equally important, in situ studies in these areas are only seldomly reported.<br />

The potential of XANES and/or EXAFS are discussed in these areas focusing<br />

on Pd- and Pd-Bi-catalysed selective oxidation of alcohols to the corresponding aldehydes.<br />

Starting with investigations in liquid phase [3], we recently succeeded in deriving<br />

structure-performance relationships even under the demanding conditions of supercritical<br />

fluids [4,5].<br />

Employing high-flux and high-resolution synchrotron radiation from BESSY II, surface<br />

reactions can be studied in situ using a combination of high-resolution X-ray photoelectron<br />

spectroscopy (XPS) and a supersonic molecular beam set-up [1]. By continuously<br />

measuring C 1s or O 1s core level spectra with total times per spectrum of only a few<br />

seconds, surface reactions such as CO adsorption and CO oxidation with preadsorbed<br />

atomic oxygen as well as dissociative adsorption of methane and its subsequent dehydrogenation<br />

have been studied. From a quantitative analysis it is possible to determine<br />

the time- and coverage-dependent occupation of different adsorption sites or the population<br />

of certain surface species, which can be distinguished by in-situ high-resolution<br />

XPS. This includes the identification of step and terrace species and sites on regularly<br />

stepped surfaces [2] as well as the identification of different hydrocarbons by their specific<br />

vibrational fine structure [3].<br />

The majority of the experiments rely on the use of a supersonic molecular beam for<br />

various reasons. The spatially confined beam allows for a relatively high particle flux<br />

(equivalent to pressure) on the sample, while keeping UHV conditions in the rest of the<br />

chamber. Secondly, the confined beam can be switched on and off precisely by a moveable<br />

flag. Finally, activated processes, like the dissociative adsorption of methane, can<br />

be facilitated by using highly energetic molecules provided by a supersonic molecular<br />

beam [3].<br />

Using all these properties, a variety of surface reactions can be studied. We will present<br />

examples from our recent investigations.<br />

The third-generation X-ray source BESSYII (Berlin, Germany) provides a certain<br />

portion of coherent x-ray radiation which can be used for static and dynamic speckle<br />

analysis. Since about three years our group follows the concept of using “white”<br />

radiation for coherence experiments. Exploiting the exponentially decaying part of<br />

the BESSYII emission spectrum (critical energy 1 keV) we can use energies between 5<br />

< E < 20 keV with sufficient coherent flux.<br />

Various experiments were performed to test and to measure the coherence properties<br />

at the white-beam bending-magnet beamline (EDR). We measured static speckles<br />

from plane and surface patterend semiconductor and polymer surfaces under grazingincidence<br />

over a wide energy range simultaneous. In this scattering geometry the<br />

Fourier-back transformation is influenced by the incindence spectrum which already<br />

contains features of Fresnel diffraction of the coherent beam at the incident pinhole.<br />

This apparatus function has been measured at the samples site for different incidence<br />

conditions and was simulated in terms of Lommel formalism. Knowing this function<br />

one is able to deconvolute measured reciprocal space maps by the apparatus function<br />

to receive the speckle pattern of the measured surface. On the other hand one can<br />

consider this function as input for reconstruction of the true sample surface.<br />

Using this setup we performed first XCPS studies at polymer surfaces. On time scale<br />

of several 10 seconds we detected the dynamics of molecular movement initiated by<br />

laser light at the surface of light-sensitive azopolymer film. Considering the apparatus<br />

function one can discriminate between static features due to Fresnel scattering from<br />

incident pinhole and dynamic speckles induced by the light. Both show different autocorrelation<br />

function as well. The features can be observed simulataneous over a broad<br />

energy band which help to distinguish between diffusion and not-diffusion controlled<br />

processes.

Information über das Wechselspiel zwischen Supraleitung und Magnetismus ist der<br />

Schlüssel zum Verständnis einer Reihe bedeutsamer Materialien, beispielsweise der<br />

Hochtemperatur- und Schwere-Fermionen-Supraleiter. Ein ausgezeichnetes Beispiel ist<br />

der magnetische Supraleiter UPd2Al3, der bei tiefen Temperaturen die Koexistenz von<br />

Supraleitung und antiferromagnetischer Ordnung zeigt. Diese intermetallische Verbindung<br />

ist - neben Hochtemperatursupraleitern - eine der am besten <strong>mit</strong> Streumethoden<br />

untersuchten supraleitenden Materialien, lassen doch die Beobachtungen einzigartige<br />

Rückschlsse auf beide elektronischen Eigenschaften zu. In meinem Beitrag gebe ich<br />

einen Überblick der experimentellen Untersuchungen der vergangenen Jahre: Magnetische<br />

Röntgenstreuung an dünnen Schichten beleuchtet die räumliche Ausdehnung<br />

der magnetischen Ordnung in Abhängigkeit der Temperatur. Dreiachsenspektroskopie<br />

bei tiefen Temperaturen und in hohen Magnetfeldern zeigt den Einfluss der Supraleitung<br />

auf die impuls- und energieabhängige Magnetisierungsdynamik, Neutronen Spin<br />

TbMnO3 is an example of a multiferroic materials where magnetism and ferroelectricity<br />

are strongly coupled. This particular material exhibits a novel flop of the electric<br />

polarization P from from P || c to P || a with magnetic field when field is applied<br />

parallel to the a− or b−axis. Recently it was shown that as TbMnO3 is cooled in<br />

a ∼10 Tesla magnetic field aligned along the c−axis, the ferroelectric phase (P || c)<br />

exhibits a reiterant behavior, with a paraelectric phase appearing at intermediate temperatures.[1]<br />

We have performed in-field neutron and X-ray diffraction measurements<br />

on a TbMnO3 single crystal and find that an applied field parallel to the c−axis destabilizes<br />

the incommensurate magnetic modulation of Mn-spins in preference of a simple<br />

commensurate antiferromagnetic ordering (see fig. 1). The reiterant behavior of the<br />

ferroelectric state arises from the magneto-structural coupling of Tb-spins as they order<br />

incommensurately. [1] T. Kimura et. al., Phys. Rev. B 71, 224425 (2005).<br />

and the gray bars (z=0.5) mark the orbital<br />

During the last 20 years there have been tremen-<br />

dous efforts worldwide to unravel the physics behind<br />

the doping induced changes in magnetic<br />

transition metal oxides. The physics of doped<br />

manganites has become one of the main foci<br />

in this field. In these materials not only are<br />

the spins and the charges important, but also<br />

the so-called orbital degree of freedom plays a<br />

central role for the physical properties. This<br />

is already documented by the insulating ground<br />

state of undoped LaMnO3, which does not only<br />

display antiferromagnetic (AFM) order but also<br />

antiferro-orbital order, meaning that the spatial<br />

distribution of the 3d electrons alternates from<br />

one Mn site to the next. Doping of this correlated<br />

magnet with holes results in a large number<br />

of intriguing physical phenomena. The most<br />

prominent is the colossal magnetoresistance effect,<br />

i. e., the enormous suppression of the electrical<br />

resistivity in applied magnetic fields. By<br />

resonant x-ray scattering at the Mn K-edge on<br />

La7/8Sr1/8MnO3, we show that an orbital polaron<br />

lattice (OPL) develops at the metal-insulator<br />

transition of this compound [1]. This orbital<br />

reordering explains consistently the unexpected<br />

coexistence of ferromagnetic and insulating properties at low temperatures, the quadrupling<br />

of the lattice structure parallel to the MnO2 planes, and the observed polarization<br />

and azimuthal dependencies. The OPL is a clear manifestation of strong orbital-hole<br />

interactions, which play a crucial role for the colossal magnetoresistance effect and the<br />

doped manganites in general.<br />

Unconventional superconductivity in strongly correlated electron systems like high temperature<br />

superconductors and heavy fermion systems is always in competion with magnetically<br />

ordered ground states. Muon spin relaxation (µSR) provides an ideal tool to<br />

examine long and short range magnetic order as well as the superconducting order<br />

parameter in these systems. In high-TC-cuprates it is used intensively to study e.g.<br />

the interplay of nanoscale stripe order and superconductivity in hole doped cuprates[1].<br />

Similar studies of electron doped systems like (Nd,Pr)2−xCexCuO4 are disturbed by<br />

the presence of the magnetic rare earth elements.<br />

La2−xCexCuO4, not containing a magnetic rare earth, can only be prepared as thin<br />

films. We studied the magnetic and superconducting properties of this system for different<br />

x ranging from long range antiferromagnetism to the pure superconducting state on<br />

thin films with 60 to 300 nm thickness by means of state-of-the-art low-energy muon<br />

spin rotation (LE-µSR). The results show that optimally doped samples (x ≈ 0.10)<br />

with the highest TC = 28 K still exhibit a nanoscale coexistence of a magnetic surface<br />

layer with bulk superconductivity in the film. In an externally applied magnetic field,<br />

the superconducting films show Meissner screening with a magnetic penetration depth<br />

of the order of 250 to 300 nm. These measurements provide a clear differentiation<br />

between volume and filamentary surface superconductivity. The temperature dependence<br />

of the magnetic penetration depth can be used to characterize the symmetry of<br />

the order parameter. The results on these films will be compared with similar µSR<br />

studies on bulk samples of (Nd,Pr)2−xCexCuO4 [2].<br />

The present work deals with the calculations of the polarized neutron diffraction option<br />

for the Cairo Fourier Diffractometer Facility CFDF. The CFDF is based on the reverse<br />

time of flight RTOF diffraction method using Fourier chopper. The Neutron flux<br />

incident on the sample is 10 6 neutrons.cm −2 .s −1 in the case of non-polarized neutron<br />

diffraction, (in the present time). The polarized neutron PN possibility will decrease<br />

the intensity incident on the sample ∼ 2x10 5 neutrons.cm −2 .s −1 with resolution of<br />

5x10 −3 . The PN option enable studying the magnetic structure and spin density of the<br />

magnetic materials besides suppressing the incoherent contributions in the diffraction<br />

pattern.

A Combined Fabry-Perot Interferometer for Moessbauer Radiation And<br />

Visible Laser Light<br />

By x-ray interferometry the lattice constant of silicon can be used as a length standard<br />

in the subnanometer regime. The relative uncertainties are typically not smaller than<br />

10 −8 [1]. The li<strong>mit</strong>ing factor is the variation of the lattice constant due to wanted or<br />

unwanted dopands and the isotopic mixture ratio.<br />

In order to define a better standard on this length scale we aim to use the wavelength<br />

of 57 Fe Moessbauer radiation λM=0.086 nm (photon energy EM=14.4125 keV) and to<br />

trace it back to the SI system. The relative spectral width of the Moessbauer radiation<br />

and thus the uncertainty in the wavelength is as small as 3×10 −13 . For this purpose<br />

we are developing a Fabry-Perot interferometer (FPI) based on two sapphire crystals<br />

which are cut and tempered properly for backscattering of the Moessbauer radiation<br />

[2,3]. The crystals are also used as cavity of an optical FPI. By scanning the mirror<br />

spacing it is possible to compare the wavelength of an iodine-stabilized laser at 532 nm<br />

with that of the Moessbauer radiation.<br />

The crucial requirements and the current layout of the setup as well as the remaining<br />

obstacles will be discussed in this presentation.<br />

The technique of energy dispersive NEXAFS is well established in the hard x-ray region,<br />

but its application using soft x-rays is much less common [1]. By combining the<br />

photon energy dispersion of a monochromator and utilising the imaging properties of a<br />

hemispherical electron analyser orthogonal to the photon dispersion, energy dispersive<br />

electron spectroscopy is possible. To realise this multiplex technique, a small spot size<br />

of a state-of-art synchrotron beamline and a modern electron energy analyser with<br />

2D imaging detectors are needed. We present the design for such an upgrade of the<br />

existing UFF UE52-PGM beamline and present results of a pilot experiment utilising<br />

the low angular divergence of a PGM which is operated at low Cff values.<br />

Data for various edges will be presented illucidating the complex nature of the electronic<br />

excitations responsible for the near edge fine structure. Besides the common<br />

photoemission and Auger lines and the known participator and spectator decay channels<br />

the extensive, quasi-3-dimensional data sets show that other excitations, such<br />

as ”shake-up”, play an important role in both, the normal and resonant Auger processes.<br />

The detailed analysis also allows the identification of valence band features and<br />

demonstrates that orbitals other than the LUMO have a substantial contribution to<br />

the NEXAFS spectra.<br />

As an example of the method we show data for a C60 film below. The map is built up<br />

from a collage of maps with a narrower energy range taken at discrete photon energies.<br />

The inset displays a NEXAFS spectrum obtained by integrating along the electron<br />

energy axis and is in excellent agreement with published data.<br />

We report on a method for microstructural characterization and quality control of<br />

single-crystalline materials and epitaxial devices in microelectronics and micro system<br />

technology.<br />

The parallel-beam X-ray microdiffraction imaging technique realizes spatial resolution<br />

on a µm scale. The method is based on a combination of x-ray rocking curve<br />

analysis and digital X-ray diffraction topography. Back projection and multi peak<br />

analysis of local rocking curves allow full field mapping of microdiffraction properties.<br />

Segmentation procedures and 2D and 3D reconstruction of characteristic parameters<br />

provide convenient means to monitor the local crystalline quality in semiconductor<br />

microstructures.<br />

The development and production of highly perfect semiconductor materials and their<br />

application in components in various branches of microelectronics and micro system<br />

technology require information on their structural perfection. Of crucial importance<br />

are structural properties and their relations to technological steps. Moreover, the investigation<br />

of structure-property relationships for the components, from semiconductor<br />

substrate up to the final component, e. g. the completed laser or integrated circuit,<br />

and beyond to the entire device, e. g. the single photon counting pixel detector arrays,<br />

the finished PCB-unit or hybrid circuit, is needed.<br />

We demonstrate the principles of imaging and reconstruction of the full field microdiffraction<br />

imaging method and its instrumental realization. We illustrate the potential<br />

for technologically relevant applications by examples of non-destructive testing<br />

Zirkulardichroismus-Spektroskopie (CD) im fernen UV ist eine etablierte Methode zur<br />

Untersuchung von Proteinen. Aus einem Spektrum lässt sich der Sekundärstrukturgehalt<br />

eines Proteins berechnen. Mit Hilfe der ” stopped-“ oder ” continous-flow“ Technik<br />

kann zudem der Faltungszustand des Proteins zeitaufgelöst abgebildet werden.<br />

Der hierzu benötigte Spektralbereich im fernen UV (300 bis 130 nm) legt es nahe,<br />

Synchrotronstrahlung als Lichtquelle zu nutzen. Bei BESSY II konnte bereits eine<br />

Messkammer in Betrieb genommen werden. Sie dient unter anderem dazu, den Vorteil<br />

der Synchrotronstrahlung für die Methodik zu sondieren und aufzuzeigen. Ein Vorteil<br />

der Synchrotronstrahlung liegt im erweiterten Spektralbereich bis 130 nm – in Laborgeräten<br />

liegt die untere Grenze bei 170 nm. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass der erweiterte<br />

Bereich nur durch die Präparation äußerst dünner Schichten oder getrockneter Proben<br />

zugänglich wird. Bei den Techniken für zeitaufgelöste Messungen sind zudem die<br />

geringe Divergenz und der hohe Photonenfluss der Synchrotronstrahlung von Vorteil.<br />

Sie erlauben es die Zeitauflösung zu verbessern und das Probenvolumen wesentlich zu<br />

verkleinern. Dies wird am Beispiel erster erfolgreicher Messungen, <strong>mit</strong> dem von uns<br />

entwickelten Mikromixer, dargestellt [1]. Die Messungen zeigen jedoch auch, dass derzeit<br />

bei BESSY II kein für die Methode optimal geeigneter Experimentierplatz zur<br />

Verfügung steht. Eine Lösung für die Zukunft könnte deshalb ein für CD dediziertes<br />

Strahlrohr bei BESSY II sein.<br />

Wafer contamination analysis and speciation as well as reference-free<br />

nanolayer characterization employing X-ray spectrometry<br />

Monochromatized synchrotron radiation has been used for the non-destructive investigation<br />

of wafer surface contamination and nanolayered materials by X-ray spectrometry<br />

in different beam geometries: varying the incident angle from close to zero degrees, i.e.<br />

total-reflection geometry (T), over grazing incidence (GI) to conventional X-ray fluorescence<br />

(XRF). In TXRF geometry only the surface is analyzed, whereas GIXRF and<br />

XRF provide information from subsurface layers respectively the bulk of a sample.<br />

The Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt operates XRF equipment at a plane grating<br />

monochromator beamline for undulator radiation in its laboratory at BESSY II.<br />

The absolute lower levels of detection for TXRF of light elements range between 100 fg<br />

and 1 pg with respect to a measuring time of 1000 s. For the explicit purpose of the<br />

semiconductor industry, PTB can handle 25 mm through 300 mm silicon wafers in its<br />

XRF and TXRF instrumentation [1] ensuring reference-free quantitation by calibrated<br />

components [2].<br />

Near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) investigations in conjunction<br />

with TXRF are able to contribute to the speciation of low Z and organic compounds.<br />

TXRF-NEXAFS experiments [1,3] of contaminants have been performed at the K<br />

absorption edges of light elements and the L absorption edges of transition metals.<br />

Reference-free quantification in X-ray fluorescence analysis requires the accurate knowledge<br />

of all experimental values both in the excitation and detection channels as well as<br />

of the fundamental parameters involved. The experimental data are accessible through<br />

calibrated devices such as photodiodes, diaphragms and energy-dispersive detectors.<br />

Besides the instruments’ contributions, the relative uncertainties of the XRF analytical<br />

results are also affected by the tabulated fundamental parameters of the elements,<br />

some of which only have estimated uncertainties. The layer thickness obtained for<br />

transition metals as well as silicon dioxide layers by reference-free XRF has been compared<br />

to the thicknesses determined by X-ray reflectometry. Both methods showed<br />

the same results within the frame of their respective uncertainties [4]. For the speciation<br />

of nanolayer compositions, grazing incidence XRF (GIXRF or GIXF) allows for<br />

different penetration depths by varying the incident angle. At a given incident angle,<br />

GIXRF can be combined with NEXAFS revealing the depth profile of the chemical<br />

layer structure.<br />

Die ehemalige TGM3-Beamline des BESSYI wurde am 1,5 GeV Elektronenspeicherring<br />

DELTA der Universität Dortmund wieder aufgebaut. Diese Dipolbeamline nutzt<br />

Synchrotronstrahlung zwischen 6 und 200 eV, um Fermi-Flächen zu vermessen und<br />

Photoelektron-Spektroskopie im Valenzband-Bereich zu betreiben. Das Design von<br />

BESSYI wurde beibehalten, insbesondere das optische Layout. Das Vakuum-System<br />

wurde komplett neu konstruiert, nur die Spiegel-, Monochromator- und Spaltkammern<br />

wurden wieder verwendet. Wegen der höheren thermischen Last an DELTA aufgrund<br />

der höheren Elektronenstrahlenergie musste eine Wasserkühlung in die erste Spiegelkammer<br />

integriert werden. Das führte zu einem komplett neuen Design der Vakuumkammer.<br />

An DELTA befindet sich diese Kammer innerhalb der Strahlenschutzmauer,<br />

was eine Motorisierung aller Achsen der Spiegelkammer zusätzlich erfordert. Das<br />

Monochromator-Kontrollsystem inklusive des Motors wurde komplett durch ein neues<br />

System ersetzt, das zu dem neuen Beamlinekontrollsystem an DELTA paßt. Erste<br />

Experimente zur Charakterisierung der Beamline werden zur Zeit durchgeführt. Die<br />

Leistung der Beamline und erste Ergebnisse werden präsentiert.

an der Universität Dortmund. Sie wird an 3000 Stunden im Jahr betrieben,<br />

2000 Stunden davon als Strahlzeit für Synchrotronstrahlungsnutzer und 1000 Stunden<br />

für die Maschinenphysik, Optimierung und Wartung. Der Status der Synchrotronstrahlungsquelle<br />

wird präsentiert <strong>mit</strong> besonderer Betonung auf den Betrieb, die Kommissionierung<br />

und den Aufbau der Beamlines und Insertion-Devices. Zwei Undulator-<br />

Beamlines für Photonen im VUV-Bereich (von 5 bis 400 eV (U250) und zwischen<br />

55 und 1500 eV (U55)), zwei Dipol-Beamlines (zwischen 6 und 200 eV und für weiße<br />

Synchrotronstrahlung <strong>mit</strong> einer kritischen Energie von 2.2 keV) und einer Wiggler-<br />

Beamline zwischen 4 und 20 keV an einem supraleitenden asymmetrischen Wiggler<br />

(SAW, Feldstärke 5,3 T, kritische Energie 7,9 keV) werden zur Zeit betrieben. Eine<br />

weitere Beamline am SAW wird kommissioniert, die den Energiebereich von 20 keV bis<br />

hinunter zu 2 keV abdecken wird. Eine dritte Beamline am SAW wird zur Zeit aufgebaut.<br />

Verschiedene Dipol-Beamlines sind zur Zeit noch in Planung. Die Beamlines<br />

Das kalte Neutronen Dreiachsenspektrometer IN14 am Institut Laue Langevin (ILL,<br />

Grenoble, Frankreich) gilt seit über 20 Jahren als weltweit führend zur Untersuchung<br />

magnetischer Wechselwirkungen. Der Energiebereich von etwa 2 bis 15 meV erlaubt<br />

die Untersuchung geordneter Systeme <strong>mit</strong> ihren Spinwellen sowie - <strong>mit</strong> in den letzten<br />

Jahren zunehmender Bedeutung - ” exotischer“ Spinsysteme, die direkten Einblick<br />

in deren Quantenwelt erlauben. Der oft niederdimensionale Charakter der Wechselwirkungen<br />

(1D oder 2D Systeme) bedingt jedoch in vielen Fällen im Impuls- und<br />

Energieraum breite und deswegen intensitätsschwache Kontinua, deren experimentelle<br />

Nachweis schwierig ist. Auch kleine Spinquantenzahlen (Spin 1/2 Systeme) und durch<br />

die Verwendung extremer Probenumgebungen (hohe Drücke, hohe magnetische Felder,<br />

Temperaturen < 1K) reduzierte Probenvolumina führen zu geringen - oftmals zu zu<br />

geringen - Zählraten.<br />

Die kontinuierliche Entwicklung der letzten Jahrzehnte auf dem Gebiet der Neutronenoptik<br />

bringt neue Perspektiven für Dreiachsenspektrometer. Im Rahmen des so genannten<br />

” Millenium Programms“ des Institut Laue Langevin wurden bereits die thermische<br />

Neutronen Dreiachsenspektrometer IN8 und IN20 erneuert. Für das Primärspektrometer<br />

werden nun doppelfokusierende Monochromatoren erfolgreich eingesetzt, für das Sekundärspektrometer<br />

stehen neuartige Mehrfachanalysatorensysteme (FlatCone, IMPS)<br />

zur Verfügung.<br />

Das Projekt ThALES - Three Axis Low Energy Spectroscopy -, zielt darauf ab durch<br />

Übertragung dieser neutronenoptischen Konzepte die nächste Generation kalter Neutronen<br />

Dreiachsenspektrometer am ILL zu implementieren. ThALES verfolgt im besonderen<br />

die folgenden instrumentellen Schwerpunkte: - Die Erhöhung der Zählraten um<br />

eine Größenordnung durch Einbindung modernster Neutronenleitertechnologie (elliptische<br />

m=3 Supermirrors), doppelfokusierende Monochromatoren sowie neuer Mehrfachanalysatorensysteme.<br />

- Eine effiziente Option für polarisierte Neutronen, die in<br />

Verbindung <strong>mit</strong> erhöhten Zählraten dringend benötigte inelastische Experimente <strong>mit</strong><br />

polarisierten kalten Neutronen ermöglicht. - Eine Vergrößerung des dynamischen Bereiches<br />

zu thermischen Energien (E=25 meV) durch Modifikationen des primären Spekrometers.<br />

- Die Optimierung des Spetrometers für extreme Probenumbegung, v. a.<br />

durch die Verwendung nichtmagnetischer Materialien in der Experimentierzone.<br />

In unserem Beitrag werden wir die Erfolge der bisherigen Umbaumaßnahmen der thermische<br />

Neutronen Dreiachsenspektrometer beleuchten, die instrumentellen Aspekte des<br />

Projekts ThALES vorstellen und den Einfluss für die Untersuchung der dynamischen<br />

Eigenschaften magnetischer System erläutern.

Durch das ständige Streben nach gößeren Zählraten, höheren Auflösungen und kompakterer<br />

Hardware für Detektoren, bei der Elektronikabteilung (TEL) des GKSS-<br />

<strong>Forschung</strong>szentrum Geesthacht, konnte ein neues TDC-Modul entwickelt werden, daß<br />

für zukünftige Meßaufgaben gerüstet ist.<br />

Besondere Highlights:<br />

5 multihitfähige TDC-Kanäle; 1 ADC-Kanal (Abtasten der Pulsform für Analyse);<br />

Peakzählrate bis 200 Mevents/s für 100 Events; kontinuierliche Zählrate<br />

ca. 5 MEvents/s; Zeitliches Auflösungsvermögen ≤ 40 ps; frei über Software einstellbarer<br />

Eingangskomparator; positive wie negative Flankenerkennung; Pulsbreitenerkennung/auswertung<br />

(Gammaunterdrückung); Onchip Pulsanalyse (Pulsformanalyse);<br />

Datenerfassung Listmode (Raid-System); PC-Anbindung über cPCI, Ethernet oder<br />

Glasfaser.<br />

An der Geesthachter Neutron Facility (GeNF) werden mehrere Experimente betrieben,<br />

die alle <strong>mit</strong> einer Experimentsteuerung angesteuert werden, die in LabVIEW<br />

programmiert ist. Hierbei ist hervorzuheben, daß es sich um eine dynamisch ans Experiment<br />

anpassbare Software handelt. Es können Motoren frei definiert werden, die alle<br />

über eine Inidatei initialisiert werden. So können Grenzen, Freigaben etc. vordefiniert<br />

werden, um evtl. Kollisionen sehr einfach und effizient zu verhindern. Über eine graphische<br />

Oberfläche können Position etc. angezeigt werden. So erhält man sehr schnell<br />

einen Gesamtüberblick über die Stellung aller Achsen und Schalter etc. Die Experimentablaufsteuerung<br />

erfolgt über eine Scriptsprache, welche größtmögliche Flexibilität<br />

bietet.<br />

We used a Johann spectrometer [1] to measure emission spectra of different transition<br />

metals (TM) and transition metal compounds (TMC) while tuning the excitation<br />

energy through the K-absorption edge. The energy resolution of the spectrometer is<br />

better than 1 eV, while the energy resolution of the exciting x-ray beam is about 2 eV.<br />

The emission lines excited above threshold show significant differences for different<br />

compounds in case of Kβ1,3 and Kβ2,5 fluorescence lines, while there are just minor<br />

differences for Kα1,2 fluorescence lines. The spectra excited close to threshold show<br />

significant differences, and allow to separate transitions, which cannot be separated<br />

with conventional x-ray absorption spectroscopy. We observe significant resonant enhancement<br />

at the Cr K-edge, which allows to observe charge-transfer excitations in<br />

K2CrO4 with an excitation energy of ≈3.3 eV, which is not observed off-resonance.<br />

Additional observations are better separations of (weak) quadrupolar transitions in<br />

the near-edge region from the dominating dipolar transition.<br />

BENSC hat in den letzten Jahren die Instrumentierung in der neu gebauten zweiten<br />

Neutronenleiterhalle (NLH-II) am BER-II vorangetrieben. Das Projekt ersetzt<br />

vollständig den seit 1992 betriebenen Neutronenleiter 4 (NL4) durch ein modernes<br />

Leitersystem, bei dem erstmals eine multispektrale Extraktion verwirklicht wurde,<br />

deren Optik von zwei Moderatoren ausgeht. Die Endpositionen liegen in der neuen<br />

NLH-II. Weitgehend <strong>mit</strong> Superspiegeln beschichtet, gliedert sich das System in drei<br />

Neutronenleiter von bis zu ca. 80 m Länge auf. Die Altinstrumente des NL4 erhalten<br />

im Fall des Reflektometers V6 eine nahezu unveränderte Strahlposition, während<br />

das Spin-Echo-Spektrometer SPAN eine endständige Position in der Mitte der NLH-II<br />

einnimmt, für die ein polarisierender Leiter eingerichtet wird. Um sich gezielt den <strong>Forschung</strong>sschwerpunkten<br />

widmen zu können, die sich in der jüngeren Vergangenheit unter<br />

den BENSC-Nutzern herausgebildet haben, errichten wir zwei neue Instrumente in der<br />

NLH-II: eine zweite Kleinwinkelstreuanlage (VSANS) <strong>mit</strong> einer Ausrichtung auf Fragestellungen<br />

der Weichen Materie und das hochauflösende Pulverdiffraktometer EXED.<br />

VSANS erschließend Impulsüberträge bis 10 −3 nm −1 und eine Auflösung, die unter 5 %<br />

liegt. EXED nutzt das erweiterte Wellenlängenband von 0.07 – 2 nm, das sich aus der<br />

multispektralen Extraktion ergibt. Ein fensterlos <strong>mit</strong> dem Neutronenleiter verbundenes<br />

Choppersystem erlaubt das einst von Bouras vorgeschlagene Flugzeitmeßprinzip zu<br />

realisieren, wo<strong>mit</strong> Auflösungen bis 3 ×10 −4 erreicht werden können. Als Basis für den<br />

Einsatz eines Hochfeldmagneten, der nur kleine Zugangsfenster erlaubt ist EXED ideal<br />

ausgelegt, auch weil es sich in einem von magnetisierbaren Materialien frei gehaltenen<br />

Hallenbereich befindet.<br />

Wir berichten über den Stand der Neuinstrumentierung am NL4 und einige Leistungsmerkmale.

Die Kombination von hoher durchstimmbarer Photonenenergie, hoher Intensität und<br />

kurzer Zeitstruktur macht den VUV-FEL FLASH am Hasylab, DESY besonders interessant<br />

zur Realisierung zeitaufgelöster Experimente nach dem pump-probe Prinzip.<br />

Photochemische Reaktionen können <strong>mit</strong> einem simultan angebotenen Laserpuls<br />

in Gang gesetzt, und <strong>mit</strong> dem VUV-Puls abgefragt werden. Im Gegensatz zur konventionellen<br />

Femtochemie lassen sich atomare Innerschalenzustände anregen und so<br />

elementspezifische Informationen zur molekularen Dynamik gewinnen. Hierfür wird<br />

eine Apparatur für pump-probe Experimente in der Gasphase und in Flüssigkeiten<br />

aufgebaut.<br />

Die derzeit <strong>mit</strong> diesem Konzept prinzipell erreichbare zeitliche Auflösung entspricht<br />

allerdings noch nicht den Pulsbreiten der Laser- und FEL-Pulse von ca. 100 fs bzw. ca.<br />

30 fs, sondern ist durch eine Puls-zu-Puls Variation der relativen Verzögerung beider<br />

Pulse gegeben, die nach der in der Regel notwendigen Summation über viele Einzelpulse<br />

eine zeitliche Unschärfe von mehreren 100 fs erwarten lässt. Der hier verfolgte<br />

Lösungsansatz basiert auf der simultanen Messung dieser Verzögerung für jeden Puls<br />

und die anschließende Sortierung der Daten des Pump-Probe Experiments gemäß dieser<br />

Referenzmessung. Es wurde dazu ein Einzelschuß-Kreuzkorrelator aufgebaut, der<br />

eine un<strong>mit</strong>telbare zeitliche Korrelation der Laser- und FEL Pulse erlaubt. Das physikalische<br />

Prinzip fußt auf der atomaren Photoionisation in einem intensiven Laserfeld.<br />

Ein räumlich/zeitlicher Überlapp beider Pulse in einem Edelgas führt zur Ausbildung<br />

energetischer Seitenbänder im Spektrum der Photoelektronen. Durch eine spezielle<br />

Geometrie wird die Zeitachse auf eine Ortskoordinate projeziert, so dass <strong>mit</strong> einem<br />

abbildenden Elektronenspektrometer Information über die Dauer des FEL-Pulses sowie<br />

seine zeitliche Lage relativ zum Laserfeld gewonnen werden kann. Die Wirksamkeit<br />

des physikalischen Mechanismus sowie die Funktion des Kreuzkorrelators konnten<br />

am FLASH nachgewiesen werden. Da der FEL-Strahl das Gasphasen-Target praktisch<br />

ungemindert passiert, kann der Kreuzkorrelator in Serie <strong>mit</strong> einem absorbierenden<br />

pump-probe-Experiment an einer Festkörperoberfläche oder einer Flüssigkeit betrieben<br />

werden.

From IRIS to HIRES<br />

IRIS was for long time the standard in high resolution spectroscopy combined with a<br />

large dynamic range. After twenty years of success it is time to pursue new horizons in<br />

high resolution back scattering techniques. With the OSIRIS spectrometer an ultimate<br />

aim towards high intensity was already achieved. We propose to extend the techniques<br />

to a high energy resolution spectrometer HIRES with silicon analysers. In contrast<br />

to the back scattering spectrometer at the SNS the primary spectrometer would use<br />

a pulse shaping chopper in combination with a coupled hydrogen moderator. Besides<br />

a higher flux, in comparison with a poisoned moderator, an inherent advantage is the<br />

flexibility in changing the pulse width. Trading resolution against intensity will provide<br />

a powerful and flexible tool in high resolution spectroscopy.

The new MAGS beamline: an instrument for hard x-ray diffraction at Bessy<br />

Esther Dudzik 1 , Ralf Feyerherm 1<br />

1 Hahn-Meitner-Institut Berlin/Bessy, Albert-Einstein-Str. 15, 12489 Berlin, Germany<br />

To complement its existing neutron instrumentation, the Hahn-Meitner-Institute Berlin<br />

has set up a new beamline for hard x-ray diffraction at BESSY which is now in user<br />

operation. The beamline uses a 7 T multipole wiggler source to provide a high-intensity<br />

focussed monochromatic beam with photon fluxes in the 10 12 (s 100 mA) −1 range at<br />

photon energies from about 4 to 30 keV (with lower fluxes up to about 70 keV). It<br />

has active bendable optics to provide flexible horizontal and vertical focussing and to<br />

compensate the large heat load from the wiggler.<br />

The experimental endstation consists of a six-circle Huber diffractometer which can<br />

be used with an additional (polarisation) analyser. Two closed-cycle cryostats can be<br />

used for temperature ranges of 7 to 800 K and 4 to 300 K, respectively; a 5 T magnet<br />

is under construction. There are two detectors: a low energy Canberra Ge diode for<br />

energy-resolved detection, and a compact scintillation detector.<br />

The beamline is intended for single-crystal diffraction and (resonant) magnetic scattering<br />

experiments, and the study of ordering phenomena and phase transitions, as well<br />

as for the study of thin films, micro-, and nanostructures in materials science. First<br />

experimental results prove that the beamline MAGS is a versatile tool for structural<br />

investigations in a variety of different research areas ranging from basic solid state<br />

physics to applications in materials science.

Influence of finite resolution on the results of surface-XPCS measurements<br />

Surface-sensitive X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy (SXPCS) is a powerful technique<br />

for in-situ measurements of the dynamics of fluctuating surfaces. Unlike dynamic<br />

light scattering (PCS), which is usually done using visible light, there is virtually<br />

no bulk-scattering and – in principle – no li<strong>mit</strong>ation preventing investigations<br />

on nanometer scale. However, recent experimental results clearly show that assuming<br />

Fraunhofer-like scattering is an over-simplification in the case of XPCS, yielding the<br />

need for a more thorough theoretical treatment [1-3].<br />

In the case of low-viscosity liquids, which is considered here, one expects propagating<br />

” capillary waves“ on the liquid’s surface which yield an oscillating behaviour of<br />

the measured correlation function, i. e. for a homodyne setup, G hom(�q, τ) = 1 +<br />

C cos 2 (ω(�q)τ) exp(−2Γ(�q)τ) with the contrast 0 < C ≤ 1. However, under special circumstances,<br />

a ” heterodyne“ function G het(�q, τ) = 1 + C cos(ω(�q)τ) exp(−Γ(�q)τ) is<br />

observed [4-6]. This behaviour can be understood as a resolution effect in the sense<br />

that a finite experimental resolution dq > 0 enables the specular reflection from the<br />

surface to serve as a static reference signal [2, 3]. Finite resolution also modifies the<br />

observed oscillation frequency and damping constant. This is in good agreement with<br />

our experimental data [1-4, 6].<br />

In order to investigate the influence of resolution and sample properties in a systematic<br />

way, ethanol-water mixtures have been studied by SXPCS [4]. Recent experiments [6]<br />

showed that the direct dependence of dq on sample properties (if any) is at most rather<br />

weak (the main influence being the surface tension of the liquid). However, the sample<br />

setup strongly influences the stability of the measurement, yielding e. g., a possible<br />

heterodyne correlation function from water surfaces. Recent results show clearly homodyne<br />

correlation functions from water for stable conditions, which changes only when<br />

the scattered intensity fluctuates (i. e., the specular position is unstable). This strongly<br />

supports the conjecture that heterodyne mixing with reference beams will be possible<br />

in the future for SXPCS.<br />

Charakterisierung der inhomogenen Verteilung von inhalierten metallhaltigen<br />

Aerosolpartikeln am Beispiel von Uranbergarbeitern<br />

Joachim Feuerborn 1 , Arndt Knöchel 1<br />

Das Schicksal inhalierter metallhaltiger Stäube im menschlichen Organismus ist von<br />

großer Bedeutung für die Arbeitsmedizin. Zur Abschätzung des gesundheitlichen Risikos<br />

aktuell eingesetzte biokinetische Modelle gehen von einer homogenen Verteilung der<br />

inhalierten Partikel aus, da bisher für diesbezügliche Untersuchungen nur Bulkanalysen<br />

größerer Gewebebereiche verfügbar sind.<br />

Auf der Basis der Röntgenmikrosonde <strong>mit</strong> Synchrotronstrahlung am HASYLAB wurde<br />

ein Analysenverfahren zur ortsabhängigen Bestimmung der Elementgehalte von <strong>mit</strong><br />

Partikeln belasteten Geweben entwickelt und am Beispiel von Gewebeproben (Lymphknoten-,<br />

Lungen-, Leber- und Nierengeweben) des pathologischen Archivs der SDAG<br />

Wismut prototypisch angewandt. Von zentraler Bedeutung war dabei die Entwicklung<br />

von Einzelelementfolien als Trägermaterial und quasi-interner Standard zur Quantifizierung<br />

der vorliegenden Elementgehalte.<br />

Die Untersuchungen zeigten erwartungsgemäß eine inhomogene Verteilung der Elemente<br />

<strong>mit</strong> unterschiedlichen Verteilungsmustern. Vor allem Lungen- und Lymphknotenproben<br />

wiesen hohe punktuelle Belastungen auf. Uran wurde im Vergleich zu anderen<br />

Elementen nicht nur seltener, sondern auch in geringeren Höchstkonzentrationen<br />

gefunden, als es die mineralogische Zusammensetzung der Stäube erwarten lässt.<br />

Zur Aufklärung dieses Urandefizits wurden an natürlichen Uranmineralen Auslaugungsversuche<br />

in lungenähnlichen Flüssigkeiten durchgeführt. In lymphähnlicher Flüssigkeit<br />

zeigten die Minerale ein sehr unterschiedliches Löslichkeitsverhalten, wobei<br />

Pechblenden tendenziell langsamer als Uranylminerale ausgelaugt wurden. In lysosomähnlicher<br />

Lösung konnten aufgrund von Rückfällungen keine größeren Anteile gelösten<br />

Urans detektiert werden. Durch Röntgenabsorptionsuntersuchungen am HASY-<br />

LAB wurde das unterschiedliche Löslichkeitsverhalten <strong>mit</strong> der jeweils vorliegenden Bindungsform<br />

korreliert, der Mechanismus der Uranmobilisierung aufgeklärt, der Umsetzungsgrad<br />

in lysosomähnlicher Flüssigkeit bestimmt sowie die entstandenen Fällungsprodukte<br />

weitgehend als Uranylphosphate charakterisiert.<br />

Die Ergebnisse ermöglichen, das bisher verwendete ICRP-Lungenmodell wesentlich zu<br />

verfeinern und das Gefährdungspotential inhalierter uranhaltiger Staubpartikel realistischer<br />

abzuschätzen. Eine Übertragung des Verfahrens auf andere, hinsichtlich inhalierter<br />

Stäube arbeitsmedizinisch relevante Fragestellungen bietet sich an.

A robotic sample changing system for a macromolecular biology beamline<br />

of the EMBL Hamburg<br />

The EMBL Hamburg Unit has developed a sample changing system for macromolecular<br />

crystallography (MX) based on an ADEPT six-axis industry robot serving an<br />

existing diffractometer on the fixed wavelength BW7b beamline at DORIS storage<br />

ring. The main design considerations have been simplicity (e.g. all sample movements<br />

are performed by the robot, in particular those in liquid nitrogen), compatibility (e.g.<br />

compatible with the EMBL/ESRF baskets for SPINE sample holders), flexibility (e.g.<br />

the system can automatically load baskets into its main dewar) and reliability (e.g.<br />

robot grippers are heated to reduce problems related to ice formation).<br />

The use of an industry robot requires also the application of industrial safety standards<br />

even when installed in a scientific environment. We have implemented a safety system<br />

in confor<strong>mit</strong>y with the European regulations. The progress in automating the sample<br />

changing, the sample centering and the data acquisition process makes a remote access<br />

to the instruments increasingly attractive. We have integrated the sample changing<br />

robot into the TINE control system developed by DESY.<br />

Until recently, the repeated change of samples on a diffractometer was one of the<br />

bottlenecks in the macromolecular crystallography pipeline. However, it is only a<br />

small step in the whole process of high throughput MX. Its possible integration into a<br />

wider concept for the planned structural biology beamlines at the future PETRA-III<br />

synchrotron will be discussed.

The impact of the chemical composition of airborne particles and its particle size dependence<br />

on air quality and on climate has become apparent in recent years [1]. Particle<br />

sources and sinks are strongly related to their size and so is the chemical composition<br />

[2]. A number of metals and also non-metals like P, S, Cl and Br undergo chemical<br />

transformations typically on the time scale of hours. These requirements translate to<br />

10 −1 pg and even less of trace elements to be determined.<br />

TXRF is a very sensitive method for element determinations which has been successfully<br />

used for size-resolved aerosol analysis [3]. Even more sensitive is SR-XRF. Its<br />

combination with size-resolved aerosol sampling is promising, as already shown in Ref.<br />

[4].<br />

An accurate and reliable calibration of SR-TXRF of aerosol samples collected is necessary<br />

but difficult: The addition of standard solution with micropipettes may suffer<br />

from destroying the sample spots or lines as a result of the relatively high amount of<br />

liquid. Here we present the results of a study into the suitability of a calibration in<br />

aerosol sample analysis by SR-TXRF using pico-droplets (i.e. 5-130 pL), generated by<br />

inkjet printers. The procedure could be made compatible to aerosol particle sampling<br />

using a Berner impactor. In the latter the aerosol particles are collected in different<br />

complex patterns on the impaction stages. The diameter of the dried droplets ranges<br />

from 50-200 µm for ink droplets printed on hydrophobic surfaces. The reliability of<br />

the dosing of standard solution was satisfactory and enables a spotting of well-defined<br />

absolute amounts of standard in the picogram range and below. Further, it was shown<br />

that a printing according to a given pattern in the micrometer range can easily be done<br />

with the aid of common computer software.<br />

Correlated many-particle dynamics in Coulombic systems, which is one of the unsolved<br />

fundamental problems in physics, can now be experimentally investigated with<br />

unprecedented completeness and precision. The recent development of the COLTRIMS<br />

reaction microscope (COLd Target Recoil Ion Momentum Spectroscopy) [1,2] provides<br />

a coincident multi-fragment imaging technique for eV and sub-eV particle detection.<br />

In its completeness it is as powerful as the bubble chamber in high energy physics.<br />

The technique is widely applied for single but also for multiple photon absorption<br />

processes. More and more complex fragmentation systems are being investigated. The<br />

multi-channel plate detectors with delay-line anode read out are ideally suited for<br />

multi-hit detection. However, pile-up effects in the fast read-out electronics are presently<br />

the bottle neck of the system. Fast transient recorders (ADCs), which digitize<br />

the in-coming signals on a sub-nanosecond scale, can be used to overcome this problem.<br />

Using standard fitting algorithms multi-hit signals can be separated as two pulses even<br />

if the two signals are separated by only two nanoseconds. Additionally the test experiments<br />

showed that the internal detector and electronic timing can thus be improved to<br />

yield a timing resolution of well below 100 picoseconds. In combination with improved<br />

readout electronics the COLTRIMS imaging technique is prepared for the next step -<br />

multiple fragmentation processes of large molecules.<br />

This presentation will give an overview of design and projected performance of the new<br />

ILL spin echo spectrometer WASP (Wide Angle SPin echo spectrometer). At present,<br />

ILL offers two spin-echo only spectrometers to the user community specialized in high<br />

signal (IN11) and high resolution (IN15), respectively. The aim of the project is to<br />

increase the detection and acceptance angle of the high signal spectrometer IN11 by<br />

changing the design of the magnetic coils.<br />

The design of WASP profits from the experience gained with the novel spectrometer<br />

SPAN which has recently been commissioned at the Hahn-Meitner Institute in Berlin,<br />

Germany [1]. In the SPAN/WASP design nearly perfect 360 o field symmetry is achieved<br />

by replacing the conventional collinear NSE field solenoids by a pair of anti-Helmholtz<br />

solenoids placed above and below the neutron beam plane. Furthermore, careful field<br />

analysis revealed that within this design a near perfect cos 2 field shape [2] can be<br />

created along the neutron trajectories, so that field correction can be minimized.<br />

We will present improvements on field optimization calculations using Biot-Savart field<br />

calculations and Monte Carlo raytracing calculations. Very recently we have incorporated<br />

genetic algorithms into our design package. Using this tool we have been able to<br />

accelerate the rather complex coil design with typically more than 10 free parameters.<br />

An electromagnetic undulator generating infrared radiation in the range of 1-200 microns<br />

will be installed at the FLASH facility, the VUV FEL at DESY, Hamburg, in<br />

spring 2007. The device will use the spent electron beam from the FEL undulators and<br />

thus allow pump-probe experiments using infrared and vacuum ultraviolet radiation<br />

with almost perfect, natural synchronisation. Intensities in the few picosecond long<br />

infrared pulses are up to 10 MW peak (30 uJ), the 20-50 femtosecond long VUV pulses<br />

are in the GW level (up to 100 uJ). The basic layout and parameters of the device<br />

have been reported previously. This paper gives a summary of more detailed radiation<br />

generation calculations, including effects of tolerances and magnetic properties of the<br />

undulator. The transmission characteristic of the new infrared beam line is presented.<br />

A first VUV-pump/ FIR-probe experiment will diagnose the longitudinal structure of<br />

the VUV pulses.

A specially designed infrared spectroscopic ellipsometer is presented that enables the<br />

investigation of sample areas of less than 1 mm 2 with monolayer sensitivity. This<br />

sensitivity is achieved for films on metallic as well as on semiconducting substrates<br />

by utilizing infrared synchrotron radiation at BESSY II [1]. Measurement principle<br />

and performance of the instrument are discussed for selected examples and the recent<br />

upgrades of the set-up are introduced. It is shown how thickness, structure and<br />

composition of patterned nanofilms can be derived from the analysis of the infrared<br />

ellipsometric parameters [2]. These parameters are of technological relevance to understand<br />

the functionality of e. g. stimuli responsive 1D polymer brush gradient films [3],<br />

biomedical array sensors, or monomolecular films for solar cell applications. Furthermore,<br />

infrared optical constants as determined from microfocus IR ellipsometry allow<br />

for a detailed analysis of the results from other techniques, e. g. scanning nearfield<br />

infrared microscopy (<strong>SNI</strong>M) [4].<br />

Perspektiven monochromatischer Neutronenpulverbeugung für intensitätsli<strong>mit</strong>ierte<br />

Experimente <strong>mit</strong> D20 am ILL<br />

Angesichts immer leistungsfähigerer Flugzeit-Diffraktometer beleuchten wir die Rolle<br />

konventioneller Zweiachsendiffraktometer für Experimente, die eher durch Intensität<br />

als denn durch Auflösung li<strong>mit</strong>iert werden. D20 bietet die höchste Intensität für Neutronenpulverbeugungsexperimente.<br />

Der Fluss an der Probe erreicht bis zu 10 8 n/s/cm 2<br />

bei λ ≈ 1.3 ˚A. Der stationäre, gekrümmte lineare ortsempfindliche Detektor deckt<br />

153.6 ◦ (2θ) <strong>mit</strong> 1536 Kanälen ab, was in-situ Beugungsexperimente ermöglicht. 4 vertikal<br />

fokussierende Monochromatoren, 14 take-off Winkel, sowie optionale Soller Kollimatoren<br />

im Primärstrahl ermöglichen die Wahl optimaler Abdeckung des reziproken<br />

Raumes, geeigneter Auflösung, Wellenlänge und Fluss. Dadurch kann D20 unterschiedlichen<br />

Bedürfnissen kristallographischer Komplexität und der Geschwindigkeit eines zu<br />

beobachtenden Phänomens gerecht werden. Neu sind ein oszillierender Radialkollimator<br />

und die Möglichkeit <strong>mit</strong> polarisierten Neutronen zu arbeiten, wo<strong>mit</strong> neue experimentelle<br />

Möglichkeiten geschaffen wurden. Weitere Ausbaumöglichkeiten, wie etwa ein<br />

größerer, zweidimensional auflösender Detektor, werden kritisch diskutiert.<br />

Die kontinuierliche und simultane Aufzeichnung vollständiger Pulverdiffraktogramme<br />

ist erforderlich für die Untersuchung von Phasendiagrammen in Abhängigkeit variabler<br />

Parameter wie z.B. Temperatur (Thermodiffraktometrie). One-shot Experimente<br />

erlauben die Verfolgung struktureller Veränderungen in Feststoffen in situ während<br />

einer chemischen Reaktion. Die Hochtemperatursynthese von Ti3SiC2 wurde z. B. so<br />

untersucht. Dabei wurde ein Reaktionsmechanismus <strong>mit</strong> zwei Schritten <strong>mit</strong> Zeitkonstanten<br />

von 500 ms and 5 s gefunden. Eine Serie von Diffraktogrammen von nur 400<br />

ms Dauer quantifizierte die kurzlebigen intermediären Phasen und zeigte strukturelle<br />

Änderungen im Vorfeld der Zündung. Schnellere, zyklische Phänomene sind <strong>mit</strong> stroboskopischer<br />

Datenerfassung beobachtbar. Die Zeitauflösung ist dabei nur durch die<br />

Flugzeit der Neutronen durch Probe und Detektorgas bestimmt, etwa 10 µs für thermische<br />

Neutronen.<br />

Die hohe Intensität ermöglicht neben parametrischer Beugung aber auch die Untersuchung<br />

sehr kleiner Proben oder die sehr präzise Bestimmung von Intensitäten,<br />

wie sie für differentielle Experimente nötig ist. So können Drücke über 10 GPa <strong>mit</strong><br />

” Paris-Edinburgh“ Zellen in situ erzielt werden. Statistisch ausreichende, saubere und<br />

vollständige Diffraktogramme können in weniger als 10 Minuten von Proben <strong>mit</strong> 5 mm<br />

Durchmesser und 0.7 mm Höhe in einem TiZr-Gasket und zwischen Stempeln aus WC<br />

oder BN erhalten werden. Auch hochaufgelöste Pulverdiffraktogramme können <strong>mit</strong><br />

D20 bei höchstem take-off Winkel <strong>mit</strong> einem Germanium-Monochromator in wenigen<br />

Minuten erhalten werden. Dieses erlaubt unter anderem hochaufgelöste Pulverbeugung<br />

an extrem kleinen Proben von weniger als 10 mg.

The increased interest in spatial resolved X-ray fluorescence chemical analysis in medicine,<br />

biology, and material sciences demands, special, new instrumental solutions. Submicrometer<br />

resolution combined with high sensitivity and monochromatic excitation<br />

over a wide range of energies can only be realized in a reasonable measuring time when<br />

applying synchrotron radiation as an exciatation source. A typical application field is<br />

the analysis of objects of cultural heritage. The material composition of outstanding<br />

archaeological finds from the city area of Dortmund was characterized by using SR-<br />

EDXRF. As an example object, a decoration plate of a buckler used by the Germans<br />

living in the 4th century AC in this area which is made of a silver plate decorated<br />

with silver pearls and gold foils, is presented. The pearls and foils were fixed with a<br />

tin solder onto the silver base. The provenance of the materials was deduced to be<br />

Scandinavia by regarding the historical background. Other applications fields that will<br />

be demonstarted and discussed are from material science and biology. Here, X-ray<br />

fluorescence spectroscopy with high spectral resolution due to a wavelength dispersice<br />

spectrometer [1]in the low energy regime (< 2 keV) is used to deduce chemical binding<br />

states from chemical shift measurements.<br />

In October 2005 EMBL officially opened for user-operation a new energy-tunable beamline<br />

for applications in Protein Crystallography. It receives 1 mrad of white Synchrotron<br />

radiation from a bending magnet at the DORIS III storage ring. Key optical elements<br />

of the beamline are a bespoke fixed-exit double crystal monochromator (DCM) and a<br />

vertically focusing X-ray mirror with dynamically adjustable radius. These elements<br />

will be described in detail. X-ray diffraction data are collected using a MAR desktop<br />

beamline equipped with a large CCD detector, an automatic sample changer and a<br />

fluorescence detector. Beamline control is achieved with a program written in Labview<br />

and aiming at optimal user-friendliness via an intuitive graphical interface to allow, for<br />

instance, very rapid changes of the X-ray energy. Examples of data collected on this<br />

beamline will be shown.

The A- and Gi-SAXS dedicated SAXS instrument at BESSY 7T wiggler<br />

The SAXS instrument (7T-WLS-SAXS), on the high brilliance wiggler beamline at<br />

BESSY, has been designed to perform two advanced scattering techniques, ASAXS [1]<br />

and GISAXS [2]. It has been installed at the monochromatic beam of the 7T wiggler at<br />

BESSY. The SAXS instrument runs in timesharing with a magnetic scattering experiment.<br />

Therefore, the detector chamber is based on an air cushion system (Fig. 1) to be<br />

removable. The X-ray energy can be varied between 4.5 keV and 26 keV using a double<br />

crystal monochromator with Si 111 crystals. The photon flux at the sample position<br />

is in the order of magnitude of 10 9 s −1 to 10 11 s −1 , depending on optics and slits<br />

settings. The beam can be focused by the two mirrors and the sagitally curvable 2 nd<br />

monochromator crystal. The SAXS chamber is equipped with a position sensitive 2D<br />

gas detector (20 cm * 20 cm). A MAR CCD detector with 16.5 cm diameter is available<br />

also. One of the two 2D detectors is directly mounted at a vacuum flange at the end of<br />

the scattering beam path. The sample - detector distance can continuously be varied<br />

between about 74 cm and 374 cm. An edge welded bellow system with an inner diameter<br />

of 25 cm is stretched between the beam diagnostics chamber and the beamstop<br />

chamber (Fig. 1). To realize all lengths between 18 cm and 318 cm the bellow system<br />

is divided into two pieces, whereby the longer part can move down into the optical<br />

bench (Fig. 1b) on its own rail system. The advantage of using an edge welded bellow<br />

system in comparision to other instruments [3, 4] is that the sample detector distance<br />

can vary continuously, while having easy access to the detector. The whole scattering<br />

beam path with the optical bench can be tilted up to 3.2 ◦ with respect to the horizontal<br />

that is used in case of GISAXS. The sample environments are not directly fixed to<br />

the described detector chamber. Different sample environments are available or can be<br />

installed, like sample changers under vacuum or normal air conditions, a high temperature<br />

furnace (up to 1000 ◦ C), and a GISAXS furnace to be used in reflection geometry.<br />

Triple Axis Spectrometer PUMA at FRM II: Characterisation, current<br />

Status and Perspectives<br />

The triple axis spectrometer PUMA with a view on the thermal source of FRM II is<br />

built up within a cooperation of the University of Göttingen and the Physics Department<br />

E13 of the Technical University of Munich. After the commissioning phase and<br />

first “friendly user” experiments, the instrument is now available to the user community<br />

within the proposal system of the FRM II. An overload factor of ∼2 already for<br />

the first proposal rounds reveals the high demand and acceptance of the instrument.<br />

The main characteristics of PUMA can be summarised as follows: high neutron flux<br />

on sample position; flexible and straightforward change of components as collimation,<br />

monochromators/analysers; Eularian cradle for flexible scattering plane adjustment;<br />

equipment for time resolved measurements; diverse and powerful sample environment.<br />

At present, PG(002) and Cu(220) monochromators and PG(002) as analyser, manufactured<br />

at IPC, are provided, covering an energy transfer range up to 80 meV. A multi<br />

analyser/detector option is under construction which allows survey measurements in<br />

(Q, ω) space and provides new features for time-resolved measurements of excitations.<br />

The high quality of the Cu(220) is displayed by the beam profiles at sample position<br />

(figure 1). Phonon measurements for larger energy transfers proved the high flux at<br />

sample position.<br />

Beside the standard sample environment of FRM II a closed-cycle cryostat (3-300K), a<br />

cryo furnace (3-800K), a high temperature furnace (-1300K) for the Eularian cradle and<br />

a high-pressure cell Paris-Edinburgh type VX3 (10 GPa) is available. In the context<br />

of this contribution, characteristics, current status of the instrument and a survey of<br />

the first measurements on PUMA will be presented.<br />

This project has been funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and<br />

Research under contract no. 03EC6GO1<br />

Das Strukturpulverdiffraktometer SPODI am FRM II ist ein Gemeinschaftsprojekt<br />

zwischen TU Darmstadt, LMU München und TU München. Es zeichnet sich insbesondere<br />

durch hohe Auflösung bei hohem Fluss, flexible Auswahl von Wellenlängen sowie<br />

eine mannigfaltige Probenumgebung aus. In diesem Beitrag soll ein Überblick zum<br />

gegenwärtigen Status des Instruments und seine Spezifikationen gegeben werden sowie<br />

eine Auswahl von Messungen präsentiert werden.<br />

Die Detektorbank <strong>mit</strong> 80 vertikal ortsempfindlichen Detektoren (aktive Länge ><br />

300 mm) ermöglicht die Integration der Daten entlang der Debye-Scherrer-Ringe. So<strong>mit</strong><br />

kann hochauflösende Pulverdiffraktometrie bei hohen Intensitäten erzielt werden. Weiterhin<br />

gewährt die Darstellung der 2-dimensionalen Daten eine schnelle Charakterisierung<br />

bzgl. Kristallinität und Textur.<br />

Die Standard-Probenumgebung umfasst einen Closed-Cycle Kaltkopf-Kryostaten (3 K<br />

bis 300 K) sowie einen Vakuum-Hochtemperaturofen (300 K bis 2100 K). Gegenwärtig<br />

erfolgt die Inbetriebnahme einer Hochdruckzelle vom Typ Paris-Edinburgh VX3 (bis<br />

10 GPa) und einer Materialzugprüfmaschine (bis 100 kN). Die Anwendungsfelder von<br />

SPODI werden durch die Einbindung der Kleinwinkelstreu-Apparatur <strong>mit</strong> einem Bildplattendetektor<br />

(MAR 345) noch erweitert werden.<br />

Als Beispiele erster Experimente seien Strukturuntersuchungen an Hydriden oder<br />

Seltenerd-Gallaten genannt. Diverse Experimente am SPODI dienten zur Bestimmung<br />

thermischer Auslenkungsparameter in verschiedenen Systemen. Ein weiteres Anwendungsfeld<br />

liegt in der Untersuchung magnetischer Phasenübergänge.<br />

It is known that high frequency ultrasound increases the intensity by quasi elastic<br />

scattering in single crystals accompanied by a loss of the impulse resolution. It was<br />

supposed (E.I., 1989) that resolution losses could be avoided by exciting ultrasound<br />

with the same frequency in single crystal monochromator and analyzer of a diffractometer.<br />

Neutron absorbed (e<strong>mit</strong>ted) N ultrasonic phonons in monochromator and<br />

resonantly e<strong>mit</strong>ted (absorbed) the same N ultrasonic phonons in analyzer. We realized<br />

such experiment with a double crystal, DC, diffractometer with Si(111) crystals<br />

(neutron wavelength 0.523 nm) and observed ∼ 60 % intensity increase in the peak of<br />

the instrumental curve.<br />

CCD-Calibration for Accurate High Resolution Crystal Structure Analysis<br />

Simone K.J. Johnas 1 , Edgar Weckert 1<br />

1 HASYLAB at DESY, Notkestr. 85, 22607 Hamburg<br />

Hard X-rays, about 25 keV and higher, are of advantage for high resolution crystal<br />

structure analysis, up to about 0.5 ˚A resolution, because of minimization of systematic<br />

errors like absorption of the X-rays in the crystal and extinction. For crystals of large<br />

unit cells only 2D-CCD-detectors enable to collect the necessary intensity data within<br />

reasonable time.<br />

Presently available CCD-detectors are optimized for photon energies of about 12 keV,<br />

where photons are almost totally stopped by the fluorescence phosphor independent<br />

of the incident angle. For higher photon energies a smaller portion of the diffracted<br />

photons is absorbed within the phophor leading to systematic errors of the measured<br />

intensities as a function of the angle of incidence on the detector surface. This is due<br />

to the different path lengths of the photons in the phosphor, see Fig.1.<br />

This effect can account for a factor of more than 2, and needs to be corrected especially<br />

in the case of accurate structure determination like charge density structures. A<br />

generaly applicable correction procedure based on reference data sets of well known<br />

compounds will be presented as well as the influence of this correction on various high<br />

resolution data sets and the derived structural parameters.<br />

Fig. 1: Scheme in which way the diffraction angle affects<br />

the absorption path of the incoming photon in<br />

the pixel at a given wavelength.

SINQ (Paul Scherrer Institut, Schweiz). Es ist ein gemeinsames Projekt des PSI und<br />

der Universität des Saarlandes. Ein Drittel der Messzeit steht Benutzern aus deutschen<br />

Institutionen zur Verfügung.<br />

FOCUS ist ein Spektrometer <strong>mit</strong> direkter Geometrie. Der gepulste, monochromatische<br />

Strahl (2-15 ˚A, 20-0.35 meV Einfallsenergie) wird durch 2 Chopper und einen doppeltfokussierenden<br />

Monochromator erzeugt. Das Instrument kann äußerst flexibel an die<br />

experimentellen Anforderungen angepasst werden und stellt darüberhinaus vielseitige<br />

Probenumgebungen (Dilutionkryostaten, Magnetkryostaten, Öfen, Druckzellen) zur<br />

Verfügung. Die gestreuten Neutronen wurden bis jetzt in 375 3 He-Detektoren in einem<br />

Winkelbereich von 10 bis 135 Grad erfasst.<br />

Der neue 2D Kleinwinkeldetektor [2] wird die bestehenden Detektoren komplementär<br />

ergänzen. Er ist aus 70 ortsempfindlichen 3 He Detektoren aufgebaut. Die Ortsauflösung<br />

liegt bei ca. 1.5 cm x 1.5 cm. Die Gesamtfläche von 70 cm (vertikal) und ca. 90 cm<br />

(horizontal) deckt einen Winkelbereich von 2 bis 20 Grad ab. Es besteht die Möglichkeit,<br />

den neuen Detektor in folgenden Betriebsarten zu nutzen:<br />

a) Zusammenfassen der Pixel entlang der Debye-Scherrer Ringe (constant 2Θ), um<br />

da<strong>mit</strong> den Q-E Bereich zu erweitern.<br />

b) Integration über Flugzeit für in situ SANS Messungen.<br />

c) Hohe Orts- und Zeitauflösung für Messungen an anisotropen Proben (insbesondere<br />

Einkristallen).<br />

Thematisch wird der neue Detektor insbesondere für magnetische Untersuchungen und<br />

Diffusionsexperimente einen wesentlichen Beitrag liefern. Darüberhinaus wird er in situ<br />

Strukturanalyse im Nanometerbereich ermöglichen. Die ersten Testmessungen werden<br />

ab Juli 2006 durchgeführt.<br />

A novel ToF-system has been developed for the new structured pulse engineering spectrometer<br />

(SPES) proposed by the GKSS-Research Centre for measuring both textures<br />

and residual stresses. The chopper device of SPES is distinguished by two features:<br />

On the one hand it allows for very high transmission of typically more than 5 % due<br />

to the low resolution of its base pulses and on the other hand for very high resolution<br />

(∆d/d < 2·10 −3 ) resulting from a novel pulse structuring technique. The transmission<br />

of this chopper device is thus comparable to multi-burst techniques such as realized in<br />

the pulse overlap ToF diffractometer (POLDI) at PSI and in Reverse-ToF instruments<br />

at GKSS or in Gatchina/St. Petersburg which are designed for the analysis of residual<br />

stresses. In contrast to these instruments, however, the SPES-chopper will allow for<br />

measurements without pulse overlap and will, thus, offer excellent conditions for the<br />

determination of position, shape and absolute intensity of peaks in highly symmetric<br />

materials. Due to this chopper performance and the integration of a large and high<br />

resolution 2D-detector system SPES will offer new perspectives for the combined analysis<br />

of textures and strain fields. Finally, complex sample environments will be made<br />

available for very different engineering applications.

The reflectometer REFSANS allows to perform comprehensive analyses of vertical and<br />

lateral surface and interface structures by means of specular and off-specular neutron<br />

reflectivity as well as small-angle neutron scattering at grazing incidence (GISANS).<br />

All measurements can be performed on the air-water interface (horizontally aligned<br />

sample). REFSANS has been put into operation as from autumn 2005. Its performance<br />

is demonstrated on the one hand by results of first reflectivity and GISANS<br />

measurements. On the other hand its capability of adjusting both the wavelength and<br />

the angular resolution and even the scattering geometry to very different experimental<br />

demands is presented. On this basis the potential of this novel instrument for measuring<br />

weak off-specular scattering, GISANS and extremely low specular reflectivity<br />

including the case of a strongly incoherently scattering substrate is discussed.

Soft x-ray based experimental techniques are powerful and very sensitive methods to<br />

investigate the properties of systems with low dimensions such as ultrathin films or<br />

clusters. During the last decade, resonantly enhanced magnetic dichroism occuring<br />

after excitation of 2p core level electrons of the 3d transition metals has received much<br />

attention. X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) is one of the most prominent<br />

phenomena within this filed of research, since it enables element-specific investigations<br />

of the magnetic spin and orbital moments when measuring the respective x-ray absorption<br />

spectra. However, all magneto-optical properties of a material are determined by<br />

one and the same dielectric tensor and thus, it should be possible to obtain the same<br />

information when from measuring the reflectivity. Experiments using the reflectivity<br />

instead of photoabsorption especially profit from the much larger probing depth of<br />

about 20-100 nm when compared to the commonly applied total electron yield detection<br />

with a probing depth of 2-4 nm. Reflectivity measurements are hence attractive<br />

investigation methods on buried layer in complex magnetic structures as, e. g., spin<br />

valves.<br />

In this contribution we will focus on the transverse magneto-optical Kerr-effect (T-<br />

MOKE) and its different capabilities at the 2p and 3p edges of 3d transition metal<br />

samples, respectively. On the one hand, we will present results that have been obtained<br />

in in situ experiments at the 2p edges of ultrathin cobalt films using reflectivity<br />

as well as conventional XMCD experiments [1]. On the other hand, we will present<br />

measurements of the T-MOKE at the 3p edges of capped iron films and we will demonstrate<br />

how to obtain the full set of optical constants in this energy regime where highly<br />

circularly polarized radiation is usually not available. The elements of the dielectric<br />

tensor taken from the T-MOKE experiments at the 3p edges will then be compared<br />

to the corresponding data in the vicinity of the 2p core levels. The results will be<br />

discussed with respect to future experiments on magnetic nanostructures.<br />

X-Ray Tomographic Imaging Of Atoms - Crystal Views From Inside<br />

Most x-ray methods for crystal structure investigations are based on diffraction phenomena<br />

and sample the information in the reciprocal space using an external far-field<br />

detector. In principle, transformation from reciprocal to real-space can be made using a<br />

Fourier transformation. However, such a direct back transform is often hindered by the<br />

lack of phase information in the recorded intensity data and the inversion algorithms<br />

are ambiguous.<br />

An alternative approach for atomic resolution imaging involves measuring the x-ray<br />

wave field intensity directly at atomic sites. Such a measurement is performed in the<br />

x-ray standing waves technique [1] or in atomic resolution x-ray holography [2]. The<br />

absorption cross-section in these methods is modulated by x-ray diffraction, which<br />

results in an angular dependent absorption fine structure. This angular fine structure<br />

can be inverted to real space by using Fourier or holographic reconstruction.<br />

In recent works [3,4] it was demonstrated that the patterns of the angular fine structure<br />

in x-ray absorption recorded using white x-rays have a simple real-space interpretation.<br />

For a white x-ray beam, the variations of the wave field, formed by interference of<br />

the incident beam with the waves scattered on single atoms, cancel out by energy<br />

integration for all directions, except for the nearly forward scattering components,<br />

coinciding with the incident beam.<br />

In this contribution we shall describe the directional fine structure in white x-ray<br />

absorption and a tomographic approach for crystal structure retrieval. We shall also<br />

demonstrate an application of tomographic algorithm to experimental x-ray absorption<br />

data recorded for GaP crystal.<br />

Neue Entwicklungen in der Neutronenoptik<br />

Thomas Krist 1<br />

1 Hahn-Meitner-Institut Berlin, Glienicker Str. 100, 14109 Berlin<br />

Am HMI werden neutronenoptische Komponenten wie Polarisatoren und Analysatoren,<br />

Kollimatoren und fokussierende Elemente gebaut und getestet.<br />

Es wurden polarisierende bender hergestellt, die aus Si-wafers <strong>mit</strong> Dicken zwischen<br />

0.15 mm und 0.25 mm bestehen. Diese bender wurden <strong>mit</strong> Neutronen bei Wellenlängen<br />

von 0.24 nm und 0.475 nm getestet, wobei 42 - 60 % der spin up Komponente <strong>mit</strong><br />

Polarisationen von über 95 % durch die bender trans<strong>mit</strong>tiert wurden.<br />

Es wurde auch ein polarisierender bender ohne absorbierende Schichten gebaut, der<br />

einen Neutronenstrahl in zwei polarisierte Strahlen aufspaltet, die den bender unter<br />

unterschiedlichen Winkeln verlassen. Mit einem Kollimator hinter diesem bender kann<br />

dann insbesondere die in Flugrichtung trans<strong>mit</strong>tierte Komponente herausgefiltert werden.<br />

Für eine Wellenlänge von 0.475 nm wurden eine maximale Transmission von 50 %<br />

der gewünschten Komponente und eine Polarisation von mehr als 98 % erreicht. Da<strong>mit</strong><br />

steht ein Festkörper-Transmissionspolarisator zur Verfügung, der einen beliebig breiten<br />

Strahl über eine Strecke von weniger als 100 mm polarisiert, ohne die Flugrichtung der<br />

Neutronen zu ändern.<br />

Ferner wurden Spin-Analysatoren in der Bauform einer radialen cavity gebaut, die es<br />

erlauben, in zwei Dimensionen einen Winkelbereich von 5 Grad zu analysieren.<br />

Es wurden auch Festkörper-Kollimatoren hergestellt. Dabei bestanden die Kanalwände<br />

entweder aus rein absorbierenden Schichten oder waren zusätzlich dazu <strong>mit</strong> einer reflektierenden<br />

Schicht versehen worden. Mit deren Hilfe kann eine rechteckige Transmissionsfunktion<br />

erreicht werden, im Gegensatz zur dreieckigen Form bei Kollimatoren <strong>mit</strong><br />

rein absorbierenden Wänden. Hier<strong>mit</strong> konnten Kollimationen bis herab zu 0.14 Grad<br />

erreicht werden. Die Transmissionen lagen bei über 95 % der theoretisch erwarteten<br />

Werte.<br />

Durch Einfügung von Abstandshaltern in einen derartiges Bauteil konnten radiale<br />

Kollimatoren realisiert werden.<br />

Kürzlich wurde eine Festkörperlinse getestet, die einen Neutronenstrahls <strong>mit</strong> der Divergenz<br />

eines <strong>mit</strong> Ni-58 beschichteten guides von einer Höhe von 20 mm in einem Abstand<br />

von 36 mm hinter dem Linsenende auf 2 mm FWHM fokussierte. Das entspricht einer<br />

Flusserhöhung um einem Faktor 3 im Fokusmaximum in Vergleich zum Fluss an dieser<br />

Stelle ohne Linse.

As a result of an international co-operation, a new two-dimensional position sensitive<br />

detector was developed for small angle diffraction at the time-of-flight instrument YuMo<br />

@ IBR-2. Based on the wire matrix and delay-line technology, this detector provides a<br />

spatial resolution better than 4 mm. The sensitive area is 580 x 580 mm 2 . The body of<br />

the detector is made from aluminium providing an effective thickness of 40 mm which<br />

is filled with 3 He up to a pressure of 10 bar. Thus, the device is optimised for neutrons<br />

with wavelengths between 0.7 and 6 ˚A that are available at the YuMo instrument. As<br />

a unique feature, the detector exhibits a central hole of 70 mm diameter for the direct<br />

beam as shown in the figure below. This is particularly useful if a two detector system is<br />

used that covers a large range of wave vector transfers simultaneously without the need<br />

of changing distance between sample and detector. In this contribution we report on<br />

the first test results of this detector under real experiment conditions. The performance<br />

of detector along with electronics and data acquisition allows to accept integrated count<br />

rates of more than 1.7 MHz. With this new device, the field of application of YuMo<br />

is extended to anisotropic phenomena that become more and more important in the<br />

future.<br />

Research under contract no. 03DU03G2.<br />

Horizontal Reflectometer at the IBR2-Reactor Dubna<br />

1 TU München, Germany – 2 ILL, Grenoble, France<br />

The IBR-2 reactor is a high-flux long-pulse reactor. After the refurbishment the IBR-<br />

2 reactor will be equipped with a cold moderator, which will be optimized for the<br />

horizontal reflectometer. A long flight-path is available to get a wavelength resolution<br />

of ∼2 % for the interesting regions of the broad wavelength distribution and thus for the<br />

broad q-range. Moreover an inclined flight-path is foreseen, favorable for a horizontal<br />

reflectometer. Direct view on the cold moderator, but not on the core, and full use of<br />

the cold moderator surface allows maximizing the flux. The background can be kept<br />

on a very low level due to experience with the actual reflectometer REMUR. Larmor<br />

precession of the neutrons will be used for angular encoding. This is a new method<br />

[1] which allows to tailor the angular resolution without changing the cross section of<br />

the beam. The two-dimensional detector will be of the same type, which gave recently<br />

interesting results for the fast neutron background.<br />

The scientific case is given by the study of fluid samples, which require a horizontal<br />

sample surface, ranging from surfactants, liquid polymers to biological membranes and<br />

solutions of pharmaceutics. Particular attention will be given to off-specular scattering<br />

and GISANS, so to lateral correlations of the samples in the two orthogonal directions<br />

of the sample plane and with its depth sensitivity. Application of these techniques<br />

gives also access to an extremely broad range of lateral correlations.<br />

The use of polarized neutrons allows also developing magnetic scattering from e.g.<br />

magnetic fluids in TOF within the Larmor precession field at small external magnetic<br />

fields.<br />

Significant flux gains of 40 % - 140 % can be obtained at D11 for the whole range of collimation<br />

distances with a new guide design, recently confirmed by MC simulations [1].<br />

The 39 metres of straight glass guides with constant cross section 30 x 50 mm (width<br />

x height) will be replaced with a guide system with a diverging section, widening the<br />

guide width over the first metres by about 50 % and a focusing section over the last few<br />

metres. The changes are going to be realised in the period 2007-2008 and in conjunction<br />

with the ongoing Millennium Project “New Detector Tank” which concerns the<br />

development of a larger and faster SANS detector for D11 [2]. The new detector will<br />

be installed in a new detector tank with increased diameter and length, thus increasing<br />

the dynamic range and the resolution by 100 % each, allowing for about 6 times higher<br />

count-rates than at present and extending the range of momentum transfer Q both to<br />

higher Q as well as to lower Q, including the option of installing a multi-beam USANS.<br />

After a year of operation we report about the performance of the cold TAS - PANDA.<br />

Emphasis will be laid on the specific instrument design properties, which make PANDA<br />

to one of the most intense cold TAS world-wide. Using Gold foil activation combined<br />

with a calibrated monitor we measured a flux of 1.9 · 10 7 n/cm 2 /s (ki=1.5 ˚A −1 , 180 mm<br />

L-N2 cooled Be Filter) and 5.5 · 10 7 n/cm 2 /s (ki=2.662 ˚A −1 , 60 mm PG Filter) at<br />

the sample position having the PG002 monochromator horizontally flat and vertically<br />

focused. Data obtained during the commissioning time and about 20 user experiments<br />

show that PANDA fulfills the expectations from the design studies. The experiments<br />

profited of both the high flux and the flexibility of PANDA. High resolution studies in<br />

The decision of the Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht / Germany to build up and operate<br />

Materials Science beamlines at DESY in Hamburg has now lead to the reconstruction<br />

and completion of the first of these beamlines, HARWI II, located at the second<br />

generation source DORIS. Thus, the expertise of the Institute for Materials Science<br />

operating the research reactor FRG 1, i. e. mainly uses neutron scattering for materials<br />

science investigations, will in future be complemented by synchrotron experiments.<br />

These benefit from the availability of both high-energy and high-brilliant synchrotron<br />

sources. HARWI II is dedicated to investigations of large samples. Global texture analyses,<br />

stress and strain measurements and global imaging will be typical experiments.<br />

A new high-field wiggler was installed and two in-vacuum monochromators are envisaged.<br />

The first, a horizontal double-Laue type, provides a beam of 10 by 10 mm 2<br />

size up to 250 keV and is already in use, whereas the vertical monochromator (20 to<br />

150 keV) for a beam of 10 mm (height) and up to 70 mm (width) will be soon installed.<br />

In addition, the beamstop at the rear end of the vacuum tank also provides a small<br />

part of the ’white’ beam via a pinhole of 0.7 mm in diameter. The optical elements are<br />

completed by various slits, shutters, beam filters and beam intensity monitors, which<br />

are all located in an optics hutch made of concrete. In contrast, the experiment areas<br />

downstream are ’conventional’ lead hutches. In the first hutch a large materials science<br />

diffractometer will carry heavy samples and sample environments up to 600 kg weight.<br />

Moreover, a conventional Eulerian cradle can be mounted on top of the instrument<br />

and two detector arms allow measurements in the vertical using either a point detector<br />

or a 2D–detector. The scattering setup is completed by a ’detector portal’, which allows<br />

to position two additional 2D–detectors independently at any place in the hutch<br />

in a distance up to 10 m away from the sample. The sample tower (including the<br />

heavy load) can be moved outside the beam and two large tables can be independently<br />

installed using elevators. The first table of 3 m length and 1.5 m width is dedicated<br />

to user equipments, the second one permanently carries a tomography setup. In a<br />

second experimental area the Geoforschungszentrum Potsdam is operating a press for<br />

high–pressure experiments. Results of first experiments will be presented in further<br />

contributions to this conference. The beamline is now available to external users.<br />

Combining non-specular X-ray scattering and X-ray absorption spectroscopy<br />

- A new method for surface science<br />

The atomic structure and the chemical composition of buried interfaces is of high interest<br />

for many applications e.g. in multilayered samples such as oxidized metals, optic<br />

and microelectronic devices. Due to the various functions of modern materials, nondestructive<br />

testing methods are highly desirable. We will show that the combination<br />

of grazing incidence non-specular X-ray scattering with X-ray absorption spectroscopy<br />

enables surface-sensitive structural investigations yielding many details of thin films<br />

or multilayered systems. More specifically, investigations of buried interaces are are<br />

feasible.<br />

Our new approach makes use of the distinct off-specularly scattered intensities which<br />

appear for grazing angles in the vicinity of the critical angle of total reflection. Extensive<br />

work in the past has shown that the intensity of this so-called Yoneda-peak is<br />

related to lateral surface inhomo-geneities such as roughness, and that a quantitative<br />

calculation is possible in many cases using sophisticated mathematical models such as<br />

the distorted wave born approximation. Since the angular position of the Yoneda-peak<br />

is strongly correlated with the density of the X-ray scattering materials, different interfaces<br />

can be selected by the choice of the scattering angle. Therefore, by measuring<br />

the X-ray absorption fine structure for given, well defined incidence and exit angles, it<br />

is possible to study the atomic short range order and the chemical state of a chosen<br />

element.<br />

By analyzing the spectra measured for well defined model systems such as noble<br />

metal thin films, we will first show that a quantitative description of the measured<br />

data is possible. In a second step, structural investigations of different samples will<br />

be presented. In the case of oxidized copper, a detailed insight into the structure of<br />

the multilayered oxide film is accessible. For metallic double layers (copper on gold)<br />

prepared by evaporation or sputtering, the Cu atoms at the Cu-air (vacuum)-interface<br />

can be separated from those in the inner Cu-Au interface in an unambiguous way.

Time-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy (QEXAFS) yields structural information<br />

during fast chemical decomposition reactions, thin film deposition, solid-state reactions,<br />

phase transformations etc. This presentation will outline the technical developments<br />

of the QEXAFS technique, its current state and the most challenging results. More<br />

specifically, we will present results obtained using a cam-driven oscillating doublecrystal<br />

monochromator (DCM) with a channel-cut crystal. This DCM has been used<br />

at various synchrotron radiation sources worldwide, e.g. at HASYLAB, the ESRF,<br />

LURE, ANKA and the APS. Depending on the available photon flux and sample<br />

quality, repetition rates of about 100 Hz can be realized for XANES measurements,<br />

while the acquisition of full EXAFS spectra with a scan range of more than 1 keV<br />

and a repetition rate of 10 Hz are feasible. Using cryogenic cooling, the silicon crystal<br />

can cope with the full heat load from third generation undulator sources. Excellent<br />

data quality can be obtained. Since a fast sequential energy scanning technique is<br />

used, the detection of fluorescence radiation or surface sensitive techniques such as<br />

reflection mode EXAFS can be applied, and a reference sample can be monitored<br />

simultaneously with each measurement. This per<strong>mit</strong>s to detect even very small changes<br />

of the edge position - and thus the chemical valency of the species of interest - with a<br />

high accuracy. XANES-microtomography with a lateral resolution in the micrometerscale<br />

becomes feasible by combining the fast scanning monochromator with refractive<br />

X-ray lenses for beam focusing. Furthermore, the combination of time-resolved Xray<br />

absorption spectroscopy (Quick-XANES) with additional techniques such as UV-<br />

Vis, Raman-spetroscopy or differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is feasible. We<br />

will different applications of the new technique ranging from solution chemistry to<br />

We present a vacuum Johann spectrometer for inelastic x-ray scattering and high<br />

resolution fluorescence spectroscopy that has been installed at the DORIS III storage<br />

ring in HASYLAB. The spectrometer utilizes spherically bent crystals with a maximum<br />

size of 150 mm and cylindrically bent crystals as dispersive optical elements. Standard<br />

radius of curvature of the crystals is 1000 mm, however, the design of the spectrometer<br />

also facilitates measurements with smaller and larger bending radii. Up to four crystals<br />

are mounted on a revolving crystal changer and thus it is possible to change crystals<br />

without breaking the vacuum. The spectrometer works at fixed Bragg angle, the energy<br />

transfers are obtained by varying the incident photon energy. The measurements are<br />

preferably performed in a dispersive set-up with a sample located inside a Rowland<br />

circle and with a position sensitive detector on the circumference. The vacuum in the<br />

spectrometer tank is typically 10-6 mbar. The sample chamber is separated from the<br />

tank vacuum either by 25 um Kapton windows which allow to measure samples under<br />

ambient conditions or by two gate valves. The spectrometer is currently installed at<br />

wiggler beamline W1 whose working range is 4-10.5 keV and the typical flux at the<br />

sample of 5x10 10 photons/s/mm 2 . The capabilities of the spectrometer are illustrated<br />

by resonant inelastic experiments on 3d transition metals and rare earth compounds,<br />

and by the chemical shift measurements on chromium compounds.

Röntgenstrahlung hat die geeignete Energie um Strukturuntersuchungen und Materialveränderungen<br />

im Mikro- und Nanometerbereich durchzuführen. Das letztere ist<br />

erst seit der Einführung von effizienten Röntgenoptiken und dem Nutzen von Synchrotronstrahlung<br />

möglich geworden. Die Herstellung neuer Röntgenoptiken für die<br />

Mikro Röntgenfluoreszenzanalyse (Mikro-RFA) stellt den essentiellen Teil eines effektiven<br />

Mikro-Röntgenspektrometers dar. Der durch die neuen Röntgenoptiken erzeugte<br />

Anregungsspot im Mikrometerbereich wurde bis jetzt benutzt, um lokale Elementanalysen<br />

durch zweidimensionales Abrastern über die Probenoberfläche durchzuführen.<br />

Allerdings waren die so gewonnenen Informationen nicht explizit tiefenabhängig.<br />

Wir haben die Möglichkeiten der Mikro-RFA um eine Tiefenanalyse erweitert. Dies<br />

wird durch einen konfokalen Aufbau ermöglicht, bei dem eine Röntgenoptik sowohl im<br />

Anregungskanal asl auch im Detektionskanal verwendet wird. Dadurch wurde eine dreidimensionale<br />

Mikro-Röntgenfluoreszenzspektroskopie geschaffen, die eine zerstörungsfreie<br />

3D Analyse hinsichtlich der Elementverteilung und des chemischen Zustands einer<br />

Probe erlaubt. Der Aufbau wurde zum ersten Mal am Speicherring BESSY realisiert.<br />

Die Grundlagen einer vollen Quantifizierungsroutine, in der eine Entfaltung der räumlichen<br />

Intesitätsverteilung des Mikrovolumens integriert ist, sind bereits geschaffen.<br />

Das große Potential dieser Methode wird anhand sehr unterschiedlicher Untersuchungen<br />

im Bereich der Materialwissenschaften, der Archäometrie und der Biowissenschaften<br />

gezeigt. Als Ausblick werden erste Untersuchungen gezeigt, in denen der konfokale<br />

Aufbau auf die Nutzung von Protonenstrahlen übertragen wurde.

Application of highly brilliant synchrotron radiation in a wide photon energy range<br />

from infrared up to x-rays leads to an ever increasing number of important results<br />

in all scientific fields, e.g. atomic, solid-state and surface physics, chemistry, life sciences,<br />

nano-spectroscopy, materials and structural research, lithography, and radiometry.<br />

This permanently growing scientific impact stands in close interrelation with<br />

the rapid development of new and more efficient sources of synchrotron radiation as<br />

well as steadily improving and changing experimental end stations, but also with a<br />

continuously prospering demand for well-trained young scientists.<br />

In order to meet in parts the demands, our team of the Humboldt university started,<br />

in close collaboration with BESSY, with the implementation of the HU Research and<br />

Training Beamline at BESSY II. On this beamline it is planned to introduce and<br />

continuously qualify students and young scientists into the fascinating possibilities of<br />

synchrotron radiation research. It is intended to offer practical training complemented<br />

by theoretical courses, both at the university and at the synchrotron. The close neighbourhood<br />

of BESSY II, a source of synchrotron radiation of the 3. generation, to the<br />

scientific campus of the Humboldt University in Berlin-Adlershof offers here a unique<br />

opportunity. Beyond training and courses the beamline will be open to young scientists<br />

for their master and doctoral thesis.<br />

The Research and Training Beamline will consist of a 5m-normal incidence monochromator<br />

(5m-NIM) of high resolution and at beginning of two experimental end station,<br />

one for high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission (HIRE-PES) and another for photoemission<br />

microscopy (PEEM). The 5m-NIM will be installed at the dipole magnet<br />

DIP3-1B. The performance are a photon energy range from 10 to 40 eV and a resolving<br />

power (E/∆E) of at least 20 000, i.e. a resolution of 1 meV at 20 eV photon energy.<br />

In this contribution we will present the performances and technical realizations of the<br />

HU Research and Training Beamline as well as the concepts of the future education.

Free Electron Lasers (FELs) are new kinds of light sources that can generate very brilliant<br />

ultrashort and coherent photon pulses. Employing 38 eV FEL radiation delivered<br />

by the VUV-FEL beamline PG2 at HASYLAB we performed angle resolved photoemission<br />

spectroscopy (ARPES) measurements on layered crystals. Electronic structure<br />

and space charge effects were investigated as a function of FEL pulse intensity.<br />

ARPES spectra were taken on a single shot basis using a hemispherical analyzer with<br />

a multichannel detector capable of detecting energy and angle of the photoelectrons in<br />

The high energy materials science beamline will be among the first fourteen beamlines<br />

planned to be operational in 2009 at the new third generation synchrotron light source<br />

Petra 3 at DESY, Germany. The operation and funding of this beamline is assured<br />

by GKSS. 70 % of the beamline will be dedicated to materials science. The remaining<br />

30 % are reserved for physics and are covered by DESY. The materials science activities<br />

will be concentrating on three intersecting topics which are industrial, applied,<br />

and fundamental research. The beamline will combine three main features: Firstly, the<br />

high flux, fast data acquisition systems, and the beamline infrastructure will allow to<br />

carry out complex and highly dynamic in-situ experiments. Secondly, a high flexibility<br />

in beam shaping will be available, fully exploiting the high brilliance of the source.<br />

Thirdly, the beamline will provide the possibility to merge in one experiment different<br />

analytical techniques such as diffraction and tomography.<br />

For the insertion device a five meter long in-vacuum or cryogenically cooled in-vacuum<br />

undulator is under discussion. It will have a main energy of 120 keV, tunable in the<br />

range from 50 to 300 keV and optimized for sub-micrometer focussing. The aim is to be<br />

highly flexible in beam shaping and focussing down to spot sizes far below 1 micrometer.<br />

The implementation of a Kirkpatrick-Baez microfocussing X-ray mirror system<br />

(KB-mirrors), Compound Refractive Lenses (CRLs), a fixed exit monochromator, and<br />

a single-bounce monochromator is planned.<br />

Two experimental hutches will be available. In the first one a high resolution microstructure<br />

and strain mapper and a diffractometer for physics experiments is foreseen.<br />

Furthermore space for user provided experiments and optics will be available.<br />

In the 12 m long second experimental hutch a diffractometer for loads up to 1 t and a<br />

smaller, high precision diffractometer, and a detector portal are projected. Furthermore,<br />

a tomography setup will be placed at the end of this hutch.<br />

Advances in small-angle neutron scattering on D22: Biology, Soft Matter,<br />

Physics and Materials<br />

Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) has been one of the most successful techniques<br />

provided by the ILL. Based on the success of D11, another dedicated SANS instrument,<br />

D22, was designed and implemented in the second guide hall of the ILL. It started full<br />

operation in 1996. The project of a third instrument, D33, is on its way.<br />

The sample-to-detector distance range of D22 is 1.05 to 18 m. The detector has an<br />

area of roughly 1 m 2 and can be moved laterally by 50 cm, considerably increasing the<br />

simultaneous momentum-transfer range.<br />

D22 is probably the SANS instrument with the highest flux at the sample position.<br />

It reached its full performance only about two years ago, when a detector consisting<br />

of a vertical array of 128 linear sensitive Reuter-Stokes tubes of 8 mm diameter was<br />

installed; each of those has a dead-time of 2 µs. The whole detector can therefore<br />

accept a uniform load of more than 6 MHz at 10 % dead-time loss, a performance<br />

improvement of a factor of 60.<br />

The high flux (> 10 8 cm −2 s −1 ) at optimal conditions for the standard ∆λ/λ of<br />

10 % can now be fully used, while formerly the li<strong>mit</strong>ed detector count rate often<br />

forced one to over-collimate the incoming beam. This is of interest when the signal<br />

is small compared to a huge (often incoherent) background. The gain is particularly<br />

important for time-resolved experiments, which are becoming more and more popular<br />

in Soft Matter and Biology. The number of total counts that is required for a given<br />

statistics in every time frame (that can be ≤ 50 ms) is accumulated with much less<br />

repetitions if the count rate is not li<strong>mit</strong>ed by the detector, thus wasting less precious<br />

sample material. Another example is the observation of inelastic SANS, like the<br />

temperature-dependent scattering from silicon (Cheung et al.), where the reduction<br />

of counts due to chopping the beam needs to be counterbalanced by a high flux.<br />

The high flux is also advantageous in the case of weakly scattering samples. One<br />

prominent example is the measurement of the scattering from the vortex lattice of the<br />

topical superconductor MgB2, where Cubitt et al. were able to observe scattering<br />

from a crystal of less than 100 µg.<br />

The treatment of SANS data has made a considerable step forward at the ILL with<br />

the development of the Grasp suite, available at http://www.ill.fr/lss/grasp.<br />

After successful tests that employed an improvised polariser and a Mezei spin flipper,<br />

e.g. on ferrofluids and fusion-reactor steels, we are about to install a transmission<br />

polariser in the selector bunker, a permanent-magnet guide field along the collimation,<br />

and a radio-frequency spin flipper.

Electron Emission channeling spectrometer using X-ray CCD detectors<br />

We present a new spectrometer developed for electron emission channeling studies at<br />

the ISOLDE isotope spearator facility at CERN using an energy- and position sensitive<br />

CCD detector originally developed for imaging of soft X-rays in X-ray astronomy<br />

telescopes [1].<br />

The lattice sites of impurity atoms in crystalline materials can be determined with<br />

high precision and high sensitivity using the emission channeling technique [2]. This<br />

spectroscopic method provides valuable information on the structure, the diffusion behavior<br />

and the defect interaction of impurity atoms in crystalline solids. In the<br />

emission channelingC technique, radioactive impurity atoms are ion implanted and<br />

the emission distribution of decay particles around different crystallographic directions<br />

are measured. Isotopes e<strong>mit</strong>ting conversion electrons with well-defined energies in the<br />

range of several 10 keV up to several 100 keV are particular well-suited for such studies,<br />

because such electrons exhibit pronounced channeling effects (enhanced emission intensity)<br />

along crystallographic axes and planes if the e<strong>mit</strong>ter atoms are located within<br />

the respective atom rows and planes. The measurement of electron channeling spectra<br />

requires the energy- and angle-resolved detection of conversion electrons with an<br />

angular precision of typically 0.1 deg. Instead of using conventional semiconductor detectors,<br />

the use of the CCD detector significantly improves the quality of the measured<br />

emission distributions and will drastically reduce the acquisition time.<br />

It is demonstrated that the X-ray CCD detector is an excellent detector for conversion<br />

electrons with extremely low noise and an good energy resolution [3]. Possible<br />

applications of the new spectrometer for electron channeling spectroscopy are outlined.<br />

The Jülich Centre of Neutron Science (JCNS) will supply two neutron spin-echo spectromteres<br />

to the user community. These ultra-high resolution spectrometers are located<br />

at the new FRMII reactor and at the new MW-spallation source in Oak-Ridge. The<br />

FRMII instrument is an enhanced version of the FRJ2-NSE which was in operation<br />

at the FRJ2-DIDO reactor since 1996. With new electronics, improved correction elements<br />

and adjustment degrees of freedom it benefits from increased flux at the FRMII<br />

and better neutron extraction allowing the usage of neutrons from 4.5 ˚A to 16 ˚A or<br />

longer if the intensity is sufficient.<br />

The flux gain on the sample due to reactor power and larger beam cross section will<br />

be in the range of a factor of 10. With a maximum field integral of 0.5 Tm, Fourier<br />

times beyond 200 ns will be accessible at 13 ˚A wavelength. The scattering angle range<br />

extends from 2 ◦ to 90 ◦ . It is planned that the instrument will be operational at<br />

the FRMII end of 2006. With a somewhat longer time horizon we are constructing a<br />

NSE instrument at the SNS spallation source in Oak Ridge. Using short fully compensated<br />

superconducting main solenoids it allows for a magnetically shielded enclosure<br />

necessary for stable and undisturbed operation. The design field integral is 1.5 Tm,<br />

using a broad band of incoming neutrons a dynamical range of 1 : 10 6 will be achieved<br />

and a maximum Fourier time at 18 ˚A is one of the design goals.

Positive muons with 100 % spin polarization and whose energy can be continuously<br />

varied from 0.5 to 30 keV represent a novel extension of the µSR technique allowing<br />

depth dependent µSR-studies of thin films and multilayered structures in the range<br />

from ∼ 1 nm to ∼ 200 nm [1]. They act as a non-destructive microscopic probe for<br />

local investigations and provide unique information about magnetic and superconducting<br />

properties. A new beam line, specially designed to maximize the low energy muon<br />

flux, and an upgraded apparatus for µSR spectroscopy have been recently built and<br />

commissioned at PSI [2]. It has been supported by contributions of BMBF, EPSCR<br />

and various universities. The new set-up provides an intensity increase by almost a<br />

factor of ten with respect to the past and will contribute to the realization of the full<br />

potential offered by the use of polarized positive muons as nanoprobes. In this talk<br />

we will give an introduction of the method and present some experiments recently performed.<br />

Experiments include depth dependent studies of thin films, single layers and<br />

heterostructures of magnetic and superconducting materials. Specifically, the measurement<br />

of the value of the local magnetic field as a function of position below a surface on<br />

a scale of a few nm has been used to map non-conventional and conventional superconductors<br />

in the Meissner and vortex state, to study oxygen isotope effects on the magnetic<br />

penetration depth, or to quantify non-local effects in superconductors [3,4,5]. In<br />

multilayered structures (ferromagnetic/nonmagnetic/ferromagnetic) low energy muons<br />

probe the oscillating conduction electron spin polarization responsible for the interlayer<br />

exchange coupling [6] and in thin ferromagnetic/superconducting/ferromagnetic hybrid<br />

structures they are used to characterize coexistence and coupling of a spin density wave<br />

with bulk superconductivity [7].<br />

Absolute determination of resonant Raman scattering cross sections for<br />

silicon<br />

The resonant Raman scattering (RRS) of X-rays in the vicinity of the K-absorption<br />

edge of silicon was studied. The investigation was carried out at the plane grating<br />

monochromator beamline for undulator radiation of the PTB laboratory at BESSY<br />

II in Berlin. Cross sections were determined absolutely [1] for a wide energy range of<br />

incident photons with small relative uncertainties employing calibrated instrumentation<br />

avoiding any reference samples. The experimentally determined values differ clearly<br />

from the theoretical ones found in the literature.<br />

This work was motivated by the disturbing continuous background a substrate or<br />

a matrix element can produce in total reflection x-ray fluorescence analysis (TXRF)<br />

and x-ray fluorescence analysis (XRF). That background can affect dramatically the<br />

lower li<strong>mit</strong>s of detection for trace elements with fluorescence lines below the resonant<br />

absorption edge of a matrix or a substrate element. One example is the detection of<br />

Al and Mg on silicon wafers, where the incident radiation with photon energy below<br />

the silicon K-edge is resonantly scattered at the silicon 2p electrons. For reference-free<br />

quantitative analysis by either TXRF or XRF the knowledge of the cross sections for<br />

the RRS is important for the correct background calculation.<br />

X-Ray Refraction Topography techniques are based on Ultra Small Angle Scattering by<br />

micro structural elements causing phase related effects like refraction and total reflection<br />

at a few minutes of arc as the refractive index of X-rays is nearly unity (1 · 10 −5 ).<br />

The extraordinary contrast of inner surfaces is far beyond absorption effects. Scanning<br />

of specimens results in 2D-imaging of closed and open pore surfaces and crack surface<br />

density of ceramics and foams. Crack orientation and fibre/matrix debonding in plastics,<br />

polymers and ceramic composites after cyclic loading and hydro thermal aging<br />

can be visualized. In most cases the investigated inner surface and interface structures<br />

correlate to mechanical properties. For the exploration of Metal Matrix Composites<br />

(MMC) and other micro structured materials the refraction technique has been improved<br />

by a 3D Synchrotron Refraction Computed Tomography (SR-CT) test station.<br />

The specimen is situated in an X-ray beam between two single crystals. Therefore<br />

all sample scattering is strongly suppressed and interpreted as additional attenuation.<br />

Asymmetric cut second crystals magnify the image up to 50 times revealing nano meter<br />

resolution. The refraction contrast is several times higher than true absorption and<br />

results in images of cracks, pores and fibre debonding separations below the spatial<br />

resolution of the detector. The technique is an alternative to other attempts on raising<br />

the spatial resolution of CT machines. The given results yield a much better understanding<br />

of fatigue failure mechanisms in light weight materials for applications of high<br />

safety requirements.

Photoemission Spectroscopy Using Flash<br />

The vacuum ultraviolet free electron laser (FEL) Flash is a self amplified spontaneous<br />

emission (SASE) type 4th generation light source with high peak brilliance (10 12 ∼10 13<br />

photons/pulse), short pulses (20∼200 fs) and high coherence. The photon energy<br />

regime is 30∼200 eV. We present first results of photoelectron spectroscopy for gases<br />

and solids using Flash The experiments were carried out with our transportable spectroscopy<br />

UHV system at the monochromator beamline PG2. Operation mode of the<br />

VUV-FEL was single bunch or 8 bunch-train with a repetition rate of 2 Hz. The<br />

analyzer chamber of the system is equipped with a hemispherical electron analyzer,<br />

SES2002, which is rotatable around the optical axis of the FEL beam. In this study,<br />

the analyzer was fixed at magic angle with respect to the polarization vector of the<br />

FEL. The detector of the electron analyzer was synchronized with the FEL, so that<br />

photoelectron spectra could be detected for individual pulses or for a bunch-train. Incoming<br />

photon flux was measured by a MCP placed between the undulator device and<br />

the experimental hall. For the gas study, the intensity of the trans<strong>mit</strong>ted FEL beam<br />

was measured with fluorescence intensity of a Ce-Yag crystal using a CCD synchronized<br />

with the FEL. For the solid study, sample current was measured. High-harmonics of<br />

the VUV-FEL were cut by an Al filter with thickness of 700 nm. Gases were dosed by a<br />

nozzle with 0.2 mm diameter. Samples were He atoms and N2 molecules for gas phase<br />

experiments and a Cu single crystal for solid experiments. The photoelectron yield<br />

differs for each bunch because the photon flux of the FEL has a broad intensity distribution<br />

due to its statistical nature. The photoelectron yield of He is a linear function<br />

of the photon flux, but that of N2 shows a saturation effect. This is due to a difference<br />

of the photoionization cross section between He and N2. The N2 photoelectron spectrum<br />

at high flux differs from that at low flux. This may be related to differences in<br />

partial cross-section. In the Cu crystal photoelectron spectra at high photon flux we<br />

observed photoelectrons with higher kinetic energy than the incoming photon energy.<br />

This is considered to be due to the coulomb repulsion among photoelectrons which are<br />

e<strong>mit</strong>ted simultaneously from the Cu.

Planar set of refractive lenses for hard X-ray micro spectroscopy and imaging<br />

X-ray planar refractive lenses from SU-8 polymer and nickel have been developed during<br />

the last four years at the IMT / FZK, Karlsruhe. The lenses are manufactured<br />

using the LI-thography and electroplating-G steps of the LIGA-technique. By perpendicular<br />

respectively 45 ◦ -tilted X-ray patterning linear respectively crossed lenses can<br />

be formed to obtain a linear or a point-like focal spot. The set designed for crossed<br />

parabolic lenses structured in the SU-8 polymer includes 17 parallel rows of a large<br />

number of lens elements with different curvature radii and apertures. The possibility<br />

of mechanically removing elements allows adapting the lenses of the set to any experimental<br />

requirements. For example, synchrotron radiation with different photon<br />

energies can be focussed on identical focal distance. Due to the low atomic number of<br />

the atoms of SU-8 polymer, the transparency of the lenses is ∼ 0.7 with a maximal<br />

efficiency in the range of 12-30 keV. Together with X-ray lenses with a parabolic shape,<br />

using E-beam writing, lenses with mosaic and quasi-parabolic shapes are created, to<br />

increase the photon flux (4 times) and increase focal depth (50 times), respectively.<br />

For the previous testing experiments, the linear lenses formed the focal line of 105<br />

nm width at 15.85 keV, and the cross lenses provided 0.4 x 0.8 µm 2 focus spot at<br />

28 keV. The very large demagnification by means of the crossed lenses resulted in an<br />

intensity gain of more than 50000. In comparison with Be-lenses, the very compact<br />

arrangement of crossed SU-8 micro structure lens elements provides a focal distance of<br />

several millimetres that allows focusing X-rays from synchrotron radiation sources of<br />

different generations to a nanoscale beam.<br />

The cross lenses were used for X-ray imaging of micro objects with a spatial resolution<br />

of less than 0.3 µm in phase contrast mode. A magnification up to 150 was<br />

achieved. The results of the lens characterisation at ANKA and at ESRF are presented<br />

together with examples of lens applications like X-ray µ-spectroscopy and magnified<br />

X-ray imaging.<br />

Towards measured pole figures error reduction<br />

D<strong>mit</strong>ry Nikolayev 1<br />

Pole figures are the source of the primary information in the conventional quantitative<br />

texture analysis. Therefore it is very important to measure pole figures with highest<br />

possible accuracy. The main sources of errors are the number of grains that are<br />

in reflecting position, beam intensity, instrumental function, signal background ratio<br />

etc. [1,2]. Instead of traditional way of neutron texture measurements, it is possible<br />

to measure quantities that are averages along circles of pole figures. These functions<br />

have smaller then pole figures experimental errors, cold be measured faster, from one<br />

hand, and could be used for pole figures and orientation distribution function reconstruction<br />

from the other. Results of the first such experiments that are fulfilled at<br />

SKAT difractometer (Dubna) [3] are presented as well as ways how pole figures cold<br />

be reconstructed from these functions. The present work is supported by INTAS grant<br />

No 03-51-6092.<br />

Current state of diffraction data analysis software at beamline F1, Hasylab/DESY<br />

Carsten Paulmann 1 , Thomas Malcherek 1<br />

1 Mineralogisch-Petrographisches Institut, Grindelallee 48, 20146 Hamburg, Germany<br />

Since spring 2005 the beamlines F1 and D3 at Hasylab/DESY are equipped with new<br />

Marresearch GmbH CCD detectors with an active diameter of 165 mm and a resolution<br />

of 2048x2048 pixels (2x2 binning).<br />

The combination of bright X-ray sources with 2D area detector systems not only allows<br />

fast Bragg data collections (eg. charge density studies) but also greatly facilitates<br />

studies of disordered crystals which may show weak diffuse scattering ranging from<br />

broad and structured intensity up to weak commensurate or incommensurate satellite<br />

reflections. Currently indexing, integration and correction of the single crystal diffraction<br />

data collected at F1/D3 is based on the XDS package [1] which is mainly tailored<br />

for the evaluation of standard Bragg data collections on well-ordered samples.<br />

Analysis of diffraction data from disordered samples requires more advanced data processing<br />

and visualisation features covering non-integer indexed positions in reciprocal<br />

space (modulated structures, twinning) as well as a complete pixel-wise data processing<br />

in case of short-range ordered samples exhibiting broad diffuse scattering.<br />

To aid this process a range of software tools (C, F90, Perl) has been developed which<br />

provides advanced possibilities of viewing and processing CCD-based diffraction data<br />

of disordered samples. The tools include scripts to view individual image frames,<br />

to overlay a spot prediction based on the orientation matrix obtained by XDS or to<br />

search for the position of particular diffraction positions in a sequence of rotation<br />

frames. Furthermore, special emphasis has been put on possibilities for a post data<br />

collection processing (scaling, binning, data format conversion, averaging, background<br />

subtraction). Another set of software tools aims at the reciprocal space reconstruction<br />

from raw image data with interfaces to different common data formats (ASCII, Igor,<br />

Kuplot). This set is currently tailored to MarCCD/XDS data but an extension to<br />

other experimental setups (eg. Bruker-Nonius) is in progress.<br />

All programs are mainly command line driven in order to allow for simple generation<br />

of automated scripts and cross-network use.<br />

DELTA is a synchrotron source located at the University of Dortmund, Germany, and<br />

is operated a 1.5 GeV with a maximum electron current of 120 mA and lifetimes of<br />

about 10 hours. The beamline BL9 is attached to a superconducting asymmetric<br />

wiggler which supplies radiation in the energy range between 5 keV and 30 keV. The<br />

incident radiation is monochromatized by means of a Si311 double crystal monochromator<br />

with sagittally bend second monochromator crystal. The experimental endstation<br />

of BL9 is equipped with a Huber six-circle diffractometer and is dedicated to (grazing<br />

incidence) x-ray diffraction and x-ray reflectivity studies on solid surfaces and thin<br />

films. Recently, the endstation was extended to perform small and wide angle x-ray<br />

scattering experiments making use of a MAR345 image plate scanner. Moreover, a<br />

spectrometerin Rowland geometry is accessible to perform resonant inelastic x-ray<br />

scattering experiments. The different setups will be described in detail and key applications<br />

will be presented with focus on small angle x-ray scattering, texture analysis<br />

and reflectivity studies.

RESI (Reciprocal Space Investigator) ist ein vielseitiges Diffraktometer <strong>mit</strong> thermischen<br />

Neutronen. Es wurde für viele unterschiedliche Problemstellungen entwickelt.<br />

Die Schwerpunkte liegen dabei bei:<br />

• Strukturen <strong>mit</strong> großen Zellen und niedriger Symmetrie (chemische Strukutur,<br />

(kleine) Proteine)<br />

• Messung von (unbekannten) Überstrukturen<br />

• fehlgeordnete Kristalle (diffuse Streuung)<br />

Die ersten Messungen haben gezeigt, das RESI für diese Probleme ein geeignetes Gerät<br />

ist. An ausgesuchten Ergebnissen soll dies dargestellt werden.<br />

Die Verwendung eines Online-image-plate-Detektors eröffnet gerade im Bereich der<br />

unbekannten Strukturen neue Möglichkeiten. Besondere Vorteile sind hier der große<br />

dynamische Bereich und das geringe intrinsische Rauschen des Detektors. Die Gammasensitivität<br />

ist durch geeignete Abschirmungen leicht beherrschbar.

BRISP is an Italian-German thermal neutron BRIllouin SPectrometer project, financed<br />

by INFM (Italy) and BMBF (Germany). This TOF spectrometer is designed for inelastic<br />

scattering experiments where wide energy ranges at small momentum transfer<br />

are desired. The extension of the Q-ω-plane allows to address a number of longstanding<br />

questions which were yet hampered due to kinematic restrictions of conventional<br />

neutron spectrometers. The new possibilities range from detailed investigations of<br />

magnetic dynamics in condensed matter to a study of fluid dynamics in systems close<br />

to their liquid-vapour critical points. Collective density excitations at low Q can be<br />

measured in glasses and fluids where the sound velocity reaches values up to 4000 m/s.<br />

The instrument components are now completely installed at the HFR at the ILL in<br />

Grenoble and the 1x2 m 2 two-dimensional position-sensitive detector and related electronics<br />

[1] have meanwhile been completed. First experiments were carried out (see<br />

Fig. 1) demonstrating the capability of this new instrument and confirming the calculated<br />

predictions [2] for the energy resolution. Results [3] will be presented. BRISP<br />

will be available in autumn 2006.<br />

SALSA, das roboterbetriebene Neutronen Spannungsdiffraktometer am ILL<br />

Thilo Pirling 1<br />

1 Institut Laue-Langevin, 6, rue Jules Horowitz, BP156, F-38042 Grenoble, France<br />

Im Juni 2005 nahm das neue Spannungsdiffraktometer<br />

SALSA am Institut Laue-Langevin in Grenoble<br />

seinen Betrieb auf. SALSA steht für Strain Analyser<br />

for Large Scaled Applications, was nicht bedeutet,<br />

dass nur große Proben gemessen werden können.<br />

Die Bandbreite reicht von oberflächennahen Messungen<br />

bis zu scans in 1,5 m langen Komponenten. Bei<br />

der Konstruktion wurde besonderen Wert gelegt auf<br />

größtmögliche Flexibilität, sowie auf maximalen Neutronenfluss<br />

und optimalen Untergrund. Ein interaktives<br />

3D-Kamersystem vereinfacht die Probenjustierung.<br />

Erstmals wurde für ein derartiges Instrument ein Roboter<br />

zur Probenmanipulation entwickelt. Es handelt<br />

Abb. 1: SALSA<br />

sich um ein Hexapod, ähnlich einem Flugsimulator,<br />

das gleichzeitig Translations- und Rotationsbewegungen<br />

im Bereich ± 300 mm bzw. ± 30 ◦ bietet. Dabei beträgt die maximale Last 1000 kg<br />

bei einer Positioniergenauigkeit zwischen 10 µm und 50 µm, abhängig von Last und aktueller<br />

Position. Eine besondere Mechanik erweitert den Arbeitsbereich auf 1,5 m und<br />

360 ◦ omega-Rotation.<br />

Die Strahloptik besteht aus computergesteuerten Spaltblenden, sowie Radialkollimatoren.<br />

Da<strong>mit</strong> lässt sich die Optik optimal an das Messproblem anpassen und ermöglicht<br />

sowohl effiziente Messungen in großen Proben, als auch hochauflösende Oberflächenmessungen.<br />

Die optischen Komponenten sind austauschbar und der Einbau auch anderer<br />

Optiken ist leicht möglich. Die Wellenlänge kann stufenlos zwischen 0,13 nm und<br />

0,24 nm variiert werden und der doppelfokussierende Si-Monochromator sorgt für hohe<br />

Intensität bei gleichzeitig guter Auflösung.<br />

Erste Ergebnisse demonstrieren die Leistungsfähigkeit und Bandbreite SALSAs. Die<br />

Messzeit wurde gegenüber dem Vorgängerinstrument D1A um einen Faktor 10 verkürzt.<br />

Beispiele sind die Kartographierung von Schweißnähten, Messungen in 55 mm dicken<br />

Stahlstrukturen, oberflächennahe Messungen bis 30 µm an oberflächenbehandelten Ti-<br />

Legierungen. Sogar Einkristallmessungen sind in begrenztem Maße möglich, was besonders<br />

interessant ist, wenn sich der Kristall im Innern des Werkstücks befindet.

Recent progress in the development of powerful vacuum-ultraviolet radiation and soft<br />

X-ray (XUV) sources such as higher harmonics generation sources and free-electron<br />

lasers (FELs) has allowed to extend the study of ultra-fast and non-linear effects on<br />

the interaction of highly intense electromagnetic radiation with matter considerably<br />

from the optical regime to the spectral range above atomic ionization thresholds. In<br />

this context, we present first results of pulse resolved gas-phase experiments obtained<br />

at the new XUV-FEL facility FLASH in Hamburg. Emphasis was laid on the determination<br />

of absolute photon numbers per pulse with the help of a calibrated setup [1]<br />

which allows the investigation of non-linear effects by quantitative measurements. In<br />

our contribution, we will discuss the competition between direct and sequential multiphoton<br />

ionization, e.g. in molecular nitrogen [2], and the influence of Coulomb explosion<br />

and space charge on ion time-of-flight spectra (see, e.g., Fig. 1). Moreover, a new<br />

method for the determination of spot size and beam waist on focused XUV-FEL beams<br />

will be presented which is based on a saturation effect upon atomic photoionization [3].<br />

Der Röntgenwigglermessplatz BW4 am Hamburger Synchrotronstrahlungslabor (HA-<br />

SYLAB) ist ausgelegt für Ultrakleinwinkelstreuung (U-KWS) im Bereich der Materialforschung<br />

[1]. Nach zehn Jahren erfolgreichem Betrieb wurde im Jahre 2003 da<strong>mit</strong><br />

begonnen, den Messplatz grundlegend aufzurüsten, um neuen Anforderungen seitens<br />

der Nutzer im Bereich der KWS gerecht zu werden. Anhand von Standardproben und<br />

neuen Experimenten beschreiben wir im Detail die Aufrüstung der U-KWS-Kamera,<br />

die zur Verfügung stehenden KWS-Aufbauten und den derzeitigen Status des BW4-<br />

Messplatzes. Die wesentlichen Verbesserungen sind [2]:<br />

1. Die maximale Kleinwinkelstreuauflösung in Transmission bedingt durch die Größe<br />

des Primärstrahlfängers ist dmax > 1 µm bei einem Abstand von Probe zu Detektor<br />

von 13 m.<br />

2. Bei Kleinwinkelstreuung unter streifendem Einfall können Strukturlängen größer als<br />

7 µm aufgelöst werden.<br />

3. Zur Erweiterung des Kleinwinkelstreubereiches zu größeren q-Werten können nun<br />

auch kürzere Abstände zwischen Probe und Detektor zwischen 1.1 m und 4 m realisiert<br />

werden. Die dazu nötige Optimierung von Intensität und Auflösung wird durch ein<br />

neuartiges, portables, piezogetriebenes Blendenmodul gewährleistet.<br />

4. Ein neuer Mikrofokusaufbau wurde <strong>mit</strong>hilfe von refraktiven Berylliumlinsen realisiert.<br />

Derzeitig beträgt die kleinstmögliche Strahlgröße 30x17 µm 2 . Diese neue Option<br />

eröffnet die Möglichkeit, Rasterröntgenmethoden wie Mikrokleinwinkelstreuung (µ-<br />

KWS) in Transmission [3] und unter streifendem Einfall einzusetzen [4]. Insbesondere<br />

bei KWS unter streifendem Einfall kann da<strong>mit</strong> die Probengrösse um zwei Grössenordnungen<br />

reduziert werden.<br />

The microfocus SAXS / WAXS beamline at PETRA III - design and layout<br />

Starting in 2007, the new high-brilliance third generation synchrotron radiation source<br />

PETRA III at HASYLAB / Hamburg will be constructed. PETRA III as a third generation<br />

synchrotron sources allows to realize new experimental methods using microand<br />

nanofocused x-ray beams. Hence, among the first beamlines to be built at PETRA<br />

III is the microfocus small- and wide-angle x-ray scattering beamline µSAXS/WAXS.<br />

This beamline will exploit the excellent photon beam properties of the low e<strong>mit</strong>tance<br />

source PETRA III to provide micro- and nanofocused beams with ultra-high intensity<br />

and resolution in real and reciprocal space. Based on the first concept for the<br />

µSAXS/WAXS beamline proposed in [1], we redefined the layout of the beamline incorporating<br />

on-axis compound-refractive optics. The new design foresees dedicated microand<br />

nano-focus end-stations being both dedicated to transmission as well as grazing<br />

incidence experiments. The beam dimensions range from 100x7 µm 2 and 40x3 µm 2<br />

for a microfocus to approximately 100x100 nm 2 for a nanofocus. Optics under consideration<br />

for nanofocusing include waveguides [2], Fresnel-zone plates [3], Beryllium<br />

compound refractive lenses and planar Silicon refractive lenses [4]. Additionally, a<br />

1:1 imaging layout for combining USAXS with a moderately microfocused beam is<br />

currently discussed.<br />

The microSAXS/WAXS beamline is planned to exploit one of a high-β canted 2 m undulator<br />

pair. The energy range of the beamline is foreseen as 8-25keV. In combination<br />

with Si(111) crystals, this demands a very high stability and precise positioning. To<br />

suppress higher harmonics, a planar double-mirror with low incidence angle compatible<br />

with the large energy range of the beamline will be used.<br />

We will present the current layout of the µSAXS/WAXS beamline and discuss the<br />

different micro- and nanofocusing options possible. Furthermore, we will review the implications<br />

of this new beamline with respect to in-situ experiments as well as brilliancedemanding<br />

novel methods like µGISAXS [5] and µSAXS tomography [6].<br />

Investigations on spatial grain patterns for identification of manufactured,<br />

polycrystalline products by imaging diffraction<br />

André Rothkirch 1<br />

1 Hasylab/Desy, Notkestr. 85, 22607 Hamburg<br />

Manufactured goods are supposed to look the same and be of reproducible quality and<br />

same attributes, thus they are very similar and are hard to classify/identify. Grain<br />

spatial distributions in materials are assumed to be non-reproducible (i.e. given by<br />

chance) implying a variation between goods of a same production charge with respect<br />

to their grain pattern and orientation and thus offering a possible feature for individual<br />

sample identification. Such identification would, within given li<strong>mit</strong>s, allow the individual<br />

handling of goods, i.e. to use the “built in fingerprint” for certification purposes<br />

(e.g. to use it as a seal to proof origin of highly valuable spare parts, to track/prevent<br />

the non-intended use or shipping of goods in terms of export control etc.). A “proof of<br />

concept” has been made for the discrimination of goods by 2D grain patterns. 20 EUR-<br />

Cent coins have been chosen as test sample(s) and diffraction images have been taken.<br />

Several measurements of a single sample were done to define a basis for pattern comparison<br />

and to determine li<strong>mit</strong>s for sample adjustment accuracy. Measurements by<br />

interchanging coins, including remounting the sample holder, have been made to account<br />

for sample mounting accuracy and to perform a comparison of different coins.<br />

Methods being used will be presented and comparison results of different coins will be<br />

given.

An autocorrelator and versatile delay line for the VUV FEL at TTF<br />

In order to do jitter-free X-ray pump and probe experiments at the VUV FEL (FLASH)<br />

at DESY / Hamburg as well as to characterize the temporal structure of its high power<br />

pulses a novel autocorrelator has been designed for the XUV up to photon energies of<br />

200 eV. The design is based on geometrical beamsplitting of the incomming FEL beam<br />

by a sharp mirror edge into two branches. Due to the li<strong>mit</strong>ed reflection and the strong<br />

absorption of optical components an all-reflective geometry with grazing incidence<br />

angles at the mirrors has been chosen. The actual design represents a compromize<br />

between size and delay range of the delay line on the one hand and efficiency on the<br />

other hand. Thus it allows the handling of high power pulses and guarantees a high<br />

efficiency (50 %) up to 200 eV. The total delay is about 25 ps with a femtosecond<br />

resolution.<br />

The main challenge arises from the strict requirements regarding the motional resolution<br />

of the mirror movements as well as the mechanical stability of the entire autocorrelator.<br />

To fulfil the requirements on the motional accuracy elastic deformation<br />

(flexure) is used to control the movements. The intrinsic stabilization of the delay<br />

line is achieved by optimizing the stiffness. A further advantage of the autocorrelator<br />

design is the lack of any angle deviation or shift of the beam direction. Thus the autocorrelator<br />

can be integrated permanently into one of the FEL beamlines at the TTF2.<br />

First test experiments at the FEL are planned end of 2006 utilizing two photon photo<br />

emission from noble gases to measure the temporal length of the FEL pulses at 40 eV.

entwickelte sich <strong>mit</strong> dem Aufkommen von Synchrotronstrahlungsquellen der<br />

dritten Generation im harten Röntgenbereich von einer exotischen Technik zu einer versatilen<br />

Spektroskopie auf verschiedenen Gebieten. Untersuchungen magnetischer und<br />

elektronischer - statisch und dynamisch - Eigenschaften als auch schneller und langsamer<br />

struktureller Dynamik unter extremen Bedingungen sind geradezu prädestiniert<br />

für diese zeitaufgelöste und isotopenspezifische Spektroskopie. Dies ist der einmaligen<br />

Kombination der herausragenden Eigenschaften einerseits der Synchrotronstrahlung<br />

und andererseits des Mössbauereffektes zu verdanken. An Hand von einigen typischen<br />

Experimenten, durchgeführt an der ESRF, wollen wir exemplarisch die Stärken der<br />

Spektroskopie darlegen.<br />

(1) Magnetische (P,T)-Phasendiagramme von hochkorrelierten Elektronensystemen<br />

wie z.B. SmS, SmAl2, SmB6, UNiSn, U(InxSn1−x)3.<br />

(2) Magnetisches Verhalten von ” exchanged-coupled“ dünnen Schichten.<br />

(3) Magnetische Eigenschaften und strukturelle Dynamik von dünnen Schichten,<br />

The High Magnetic Field µSR Project at PSI - Status and Prospects<br />

Positive muons are very sensitive probes which have a large variety of applications<br />

in condensed matter research and chemistry. With a magnetic moment larger than<br />

any nuclear moment, the muons are used to probe extremely small local magnetic<br />

fields, their spatial distribution and their temporal fluctuations, in any form of matter.<br />

The positive muon carries an elementary electric charge and can therefore be<br />

considered as a light proton, which makes it particularly useful for studying electronic<br />

quantum effects in matter. All these studies are performed with the µSR (muon spin<br />

rotation/relaxation/resonance) technique which utilizes the parity-violating decay of<br />

muons from a highly spin-polarized beam.<br />

To cope with the increasing demand of the users, the sample environment has recently<br />

been widely extended. However, and partly due to the specificity of the µSR technique,<br />

the increasing demand on high magnetic fields (i.e., >> 1 Tesla), which has<br />

been observed among the µSR users at PSI, could not be fulfilled due to the lack of a<br />

dedicated facility. This fact has triggered the high-field µSR project at PSI. A detailed<br />

scientific case [1] summarizes the outcome of a workshop held in January 2002 with 50<br />

participants from 15 countries. Taking into account technical restrictions and wishes<br />

expressed by the users led to the main design specifications of the planned instrument<br />

for transverse field µSR:<br />

Maximum magnetic field: Hmax ≈ 10 T.<br />

Field homogeneity / stability ∆H/H < 10 ppm.<br />

Time resolution F W HM < 300 ps.<br />

In order to fulfill the requirements for the desired time resolution a new detector system<br />

has to be developed. The small spiraling radius of the relativistic decay positrons<br />

(e.g., 1 cm for a 30 MeV positron in a field of 10 T) requires that the scintillators are<br />

placed close to the sample and cover the full solid angle. To enhance the time resolution<br />

the length of the light guides has to be minimized, which makes it necessary that<br />

the photon detectors are capable to operate in high magnetic fields. A collaboration<br />

between PSI and JINR (Dubna, Russia) aims towards the development of an advanced<br />

microchannel photodiode (AMPD) operating in Geiger mode with improved gain and<br />

time resolution. The even more challenging specifications of the magnet cannot be<br />

met by any commercially available system. In order to decide on a suitable magnet<br />

design, GEANT4 simulations of the evolution of the muon spin polarization and of the<br />

measured asymmetry (with a certain detector geometry) are under way. Furthermore,<br />

a dedicated new surface muon beamline providing a highly parallel beam with small<br />

diameter and small momentum bite and 90 ◦ spin rotation is necessary to ensure optimum<br />

performance of the new instrument.<br />

IN12-UFO: Innovative techniques for future triple-axis spectroscopy<br />

The IN12 instrument is operated by the Research Centre at Jülich in collaboration with<br />

CEA Grenoble at the Institute Laue Langevin in Grenoble. As a triple-axis spectrometer<br />

for cold neutrons it is dedicated for high-resolution studies of low-energy excitations.<br />

To meet further challenges as a state-of-the-art instrument IN12 is currently being upgraded<br />

with a multi-analyser option. IN12 will then be equipped with a 2-dimensional<br />

position sensitive detector and an array of fifteen analysers which can be rotated and<br />

positioned individually in order to map the scattered beam on a user-chosen path in<br />

Q-ω-space. We refer to this set-up as IN12-UFO (Universal Focusing Option). The innovative<br />

flexibility of the analyser array is realized by a non-magnetic drive mechanism<br />

where all relevant parameters are controlled by a laser-based optical absolute encoding<br />

system. This is a completely new technique in neutron scattering instrumentation that<br />

will drastically enhance the reliability and reproducibility of the multi-analyser. The<br />

positioning mechanics consists of parallel rails with variable distance which allows to<br />

position the individual analysers so that a) there are no gaps or overlaps as seen from<br />

the sample (optimum coverage) and b) all reflected beams from the analysers meet at<br />

one single focus point on their way to different spots on the detector surface. The focus<br />

point is controlled by a movable diaphragm and provides the only opening between<br />

analyser and detector shielding to prevent cross-talk and to keep the background low.<br />

We will present further details of this set-up, point out its potential for future neutron<br />

instrumentation and demonstrate its flexibility and multiplex advantages for specific<br />

physical applications.<br />

User operations have just started at WERA, IFP’s new beamline for soft x-ray spectroscopy<br />

and microscopy in the photon energy range 90 - 1500 eV at the ANKA synchrotron<br />

radiation facility. Emphasizing versatility, WERA facilitates combinatory<br />

studies of electronic and magnetic structure, in particular of strongly correlated, thinfilm,<br />

and nanoscale materials. Available methods include photoemission (PES), x-ray<br />

absorption (NEXAFS), as well as photoemission electron microscopy (PEEM). The<br />

experimental chambers are interconnected in UHV and accessible from various sample<br />

preparation chambers, including pulsed-laser deposition (PLD) of epitaxial thin films.<br />

Further endstations such as for magnetic dichroism (SXMCD) are planned as part of<br />

a long-term cooperation with outside user groups. Salient features of beamline and<br />

endstation layout, performance, and first experimental results will be presented.

The future High Resolution Diffraction Beamline at PETRA III<br />

Oliver H. Seeck 1<br />

1 Hasylab am DESY, Notkestrasse 85, 22603 Hamburg, Germany<br />

In the coming years the existing storage ring PETRA at DESY (Hamburg, Germany)<br />

will be completely reconstructed. From 2009 on it will serve as dedicated third generation<br />

synchrotron radiation source, called PETRA III. Compared to existing third generation<br />

sources, such as ESRF and APS, the brilliance of the photon beams will be<br />

a factor of 2 to 4 higher. Especially, the collimation of the beam and the coherence<br />

properties will be extraordinary.<br />

At PETRA III, 14 independent undulators will be installed at 9 sections. 5 sections<br />

will be shared by two undulators with a canting angle of 5mrad. This separation is<br />

sufficient to install independent front end equipment (such as shutters, collimators) but<br />

too small to build up two fully independent experiments. Therefore, one experiment at<br />

a sharing section has to be artificially offset by some offset optics.<br />

The High Resolution Diffraction Beamline (HighRes) will share a section with the Magnetic<br />

Resonant Scattering Beamline. HighRes will be the offset beamline with a vertical<br />

offset of approximately 1.5m. It will cover a photon energy range from 5.4 keV to 30 keV.<br />

The x-ray beam will be delivered in three different modes regarding the requirements of<br />

the users. At 10 keV, in the raw mode the beam will have a size of (2×1) mm 2 (FWHM)<br />

and a divergence of ±(10×6) µrad 2 , with the notation (horizontal×vertical). The collimation<br />

mode will deliver (1×0.5) mm 2 (FWHM) and a divergence of ±(3×0.2) µrad 2 .<br />

At the focussing mode the beamsize will be (300×15) µm 2 (FWHM) with a divergence<br />

of ±(15×5) µrad 2 . The flux at the sample will be >10 12 ph/s at an energy resolution<br />

of 0.2 eV.<br />

HighRes will be presented including timetable, design, and equipment. Ray tracing<br />

calculations will be shown to demonstrate the stability of the beam and its capability<br />

to perform high �q–resolution investigations.

Nuclear resonant scattering (NRS) of synchrotron radiation (SR) has become an established<br />

field in solid state research, involving mainly two methods: nuclear forward<br />

scattering (NFS) and nuclear inelastic scattering (NIS) [1]. Presently a third method<br />

is being developed, nuclear incoherent scattering observed on the time scale. This<br />

method is essentially a synchrotron radiation based analogue of Time Differential Perturbed<br />

Angular Correlations (TDPAC) [2]. By contrast to TDPAC, in Synchrotron<br />

Radiation based Perturbed Angular Correlations (SRPAC) the intermediate nuclear<br />

level is not excited from above, via a cascade of preceding nuclear transitions after<br />

decay of a radioactive parent, but from below from the ground state during spatially<br />

incoherent, single-nucleus resonant scattering of SR [3]. In both methods the interference<br />

of indistinguishable paths via an intermediate nuclear level split by magnetic<br />

dipole and/or electric quadrupole interaction allows one to investigate hyperfine interactions<br />

and spin dynamics. SRPAC can be applied to all nuclei with isomeric states<br />

with energies attainable by SR.<br />

SRPAC can also be considered as an extension of Mössbauer spectroscopy or NFS into<br />

domains where these methods break down due to a vanishing Lamb-Mössbauer factor:<br />

for relatively low-energy transitions (e.g. 57 Fe, 119 Sn) in very soft matter like melts<br />

and liquids, or for relatively high-energy transitions (e.g. 61 Ni, 67 Zn) in solid matter<br />

e.g. at room temperature.<br />

The basic features of SRPAC have been described recently [4]. SRPAC has been<br />

successfully applied so far using the 14.4 keV transition of 57 Fe for the investigation<br />

of rotational dynamics in glass-formers [4,5], in plastic crystals [6,7], and of probes<br />

confined to one-dimensional channels [8]. The feasibility at high energies has been<br />

demonstrated for the 67.4 keV-transition of 61 Ni [9]. The combination of SRPAC in<br />

hard matter and NIS has been used for a site-specific determination of a phonon DOS<br />

[10].<br />

2005 saw the opening of the new NEutron ReflectOmeter (NERO) at the GKSS research<br />

centre in Geesthacht, Germany for the investigation of magnetic and non-magnetic<br />

systems as well as soft matter nano-structures.<br />

NERO operates with a monochromatic beam of neutrons of wavelength 0.433 nm<br />

with a resolution better than 2 %. An angular range of 20 ◦ < θ < 100 ◦ allows for both<br />

reflectometry and high angle diffraction measurements to be made on NERO. NERO<br />

has both a position sensitive detector and a pencil detector installed for flexibility when<br />

making specular and diffuse measurements.<br />

NERO has been designed to accommodate heavy sample environments such as cryofurnaces<br />

and various kinds of magnets. Polarization analysis is available for the investigation<br />

of magnetic nano-structures. A super mirror stack with a wide angular<br />

acceptance range will be available in 2006 for time efficient measurements of magnetic<br />

diffuse reflectivity.<br />

Further information and proposal forms can be obtained online at http//:genf.gkss.de.

AMOR a versatile time-of-flight polarized neutron reflectometer at SINQ/PSI<br />

AMOR the apparatus for multi-option reflectometry at SINQ/PSI is a multi purpose<br />

state of the art reflectometer adaptable to the experimental demands of surface<br />

and interface studies in various fields of research. Phenomena to be challenged may relate<br />

to growth, wetting, absorption, adhesion, (inter-)diffusion, corrosion, nanocrystals,<br />

surface magnetism, magnetic excitation, thin film super-conductivity, polymer films,<br />

biomembranes, Langmuir films and more [1,2].<br />

Measurements with polarized or unpolarized neutrons in white beam time-of-flight<br />

mode (1.3 ˚A < λ < 13 ˚A) and optionally in monochromatic θ-2θ mode can be performed.<br />

Most of the components are riding on an 8 m optical bench so that the chopper -<br />

detector distance can be varied in order to give an optimal sample illumination and<br />

resolution (∆q/q = 0.5-10 %). The scattering plane is oriented vertically to allow also<br />

measurements at liquid surfaces. The inclination angle and thereby the accessible qrange<br />

is adjusted by tilting a deflection mirror and/or the sample. A flexible software<br />

control of the θ-2θ-movement around axis that are not mechanically coupled has been<br />

implemented.<br />

The standard mode of the instrument is time-of-flight, which has been opened for user<br />

operation in Oct. 2002. Two single detector tubes can be operated alternatively with<br />

an area detector. The area detector system allows coverage of off-specular reflectivity<br />

to map reasonable space in qz and qx. Polarized neutrons are provided via a polarizing<br />

supermirror of FeVCo/Ni to perform full spin polarized and analyzed reflectometry<br />

measurements. The flexibility of the instrument also allows for large sample environments,<br />

such as cryomagnets, evaporation chambers, furnaces or Langmuir troughs.<br />

Experiments at AMOR have included measurements of polymers at air-water interfaces,<br />

adsorption of model membrane systems to polymer cushions, structural fluctuations<br />

and dynamics in block co-polymers, magnetic multilayer systems of FM/AM/FM<br />

multilayers or HTSC/AM layer systems, diffusion in intermetallic layers. Results and<br />

performance of AMOR will be presented and discussed.<br />

Extrem schnell rotierende Chopper <strong>mit</strong> Drehzahlen, die das rotierende Material auf<br />

Grund der Fliehkraft bis zur Materialfestigkeit belasten, werden zunehmend bei der Instrumentierung<br />

von Experimenten <strong>mit</strong> Neutronen und Synchrotronstrahlung benötigt.<br />

Bei den Neutronenstreuexperimenten handelt es sich i.d.R. um rotierende Scheibenchopper<br />

oder zylindrische Fermi-Chopper, die auch in Reihe hintereinander angeordnet<br />

werden können und die gewünschten Neutronen selektieren. Im Falle der Synchrotronstrahlung<br />

dienen so genannte Röntgenpuls-Selektoren dazu, aus rhytmisch pulsierender<br />

Strahlung die gewünschten Anteile heraus zu filtern.<br />

Besonders geeignet für sehr schnell rotierende Chopper sind berührungslos, reibungsfrei<br />

und da<strong>mit</strong> völlig wartungsfrei im Vakuum betreibbare Magnetlagerungen, in denen<br />

die Chopper verschleißfrei rotieren können. Bevorzugt zum Einsatz kommen permanentmagnetische<br />

Lagerungen, die sich durch besonders geringen Leistungsverbrauch<br />

und geringe Wärmeentwicklung auszeichnen.<br />

Neben der Lagerung spielt die Antriebstechnik der Chopper eine wichtige Rolle, da<br />

die Phasenstabilität vor allem bei hintereinander angeordneten Neutronenchoppern von<br />

erheblicher Bedeutung ist. Bei den Synchrotron-Selektoren werden Öffnungszeiten von<br />

500 ns bei einer Phasenstabilität von ±2 ns und einer Drehzahl von 60.000 Upm erreicht.<br />

Dies entspricht bei Verwendung von dreiseitigen Scheiben, deren Verformung auf Grund<br />

der Fliehkraft bereits bei der Fertigung Berücksichtigung findet, Puls-Frequenzen von<br />

3 kHz.<br />

Vorgestellt wird die permanentmagnetische Lagertechnik an Hand von Beispielen erst<br />

kürzlich in Betrieb gegangener bzw. noch in Bau befindlicher Neutronenchopper, z.B.<br />

für ILL/Frankreich, PSI/Schweiz, SNS/USA und FZJ/Deutschland sowie Röntgenpuls-<br />

Selektoren z.B. für ESRF/Frankreich, APS/USA und KEK/Japan.

Besides the disadvantage of lower flux densities, imaging with monochromatic radiation,<br />

in our case neutrons, offers a number of advantages especially in the case of<br />

various energies available. Avoiding beam hardening effects allows more sensitive and<br />

accurate quantitative measurements and in the latter case energy selective and energy<br />

dispersive techniques can be applied opening new fields of application. Here we want<br />

to introduce the first neutron double monochromator device for that purpose installed<br />

at the imaging beam line CONRAD. CONRAD is the new cold neutron radiography<br />

and tomography instrument at the Hahn Meitner Institute in Berlin which recently<br />

started operation as a part of the Berlin Neutron Scattering Centre (BENSC). It includes<br />

two measurement positions of which the first one directly at the end of the NL1b<br />

neutron guide was used to install a flexible monochromator device as an additionally<br />

available insert. While the CONRAD instrument uses in standard operation the full<br />

cold spectrum of the lower part of the guide, a first PCG(002) monochromator with<br />

a mosaic spread of app. 2 degrees is placed in the upper beam part deflecting neutrons<br />

downwards. The initial lower beam part is blocked by a shutter and on a linear<br />

manipulation table behind it the second corresponding graphite crystal is installed.<br />

Hence, while both crystals can be rotated to chosen Bagg angles, the second one can<br />

be positioned along the original beam direction in order to reflect the monochromatic<br />

beam from the first crystal into the initial beam path of the CONRAD instrument.<br />

This construction enables to choose a monochromatic beam with wavelengths between<br />

0.25 nm and 0.65 nm for high resolution imaging at the second measurement position<br />

of CONRAD app. 5 m downstream. First measurements and results concerning operational<br />

parameters, tests of methods ranging from energy selective radiography to stress<br />

mapping, first quantitative analyses and application perspectives will be presented.

Str. 10, 13353 Berlin<br />

Double crystal diffractometers (DCD) are widely used for structural investigations<br />

at the li<strong>mit</strong> between macroscopic and microscopic inner structures of sample materials.<br />

Operating in an ultra small angle neutron scattering (USANS) q-range between<br />

10 −4 nm −1 and 10 −1 nm −1 structures between 50 nm and nearly 100 micrometer can<br />

be resolved. Hence the DCD connects the resolvable ranges of small angle neutron<br />

scattering (SANS) instruments and neutron tomography facilities. However, the DCD<br />

does not only link the resolvable size ranges but can also be operated to yield both,<br />

q-space information on microscopic structures combined with real space information in<br />

the range of macroscopic inner structures. This method was developed in recent years<br />

at the V12 DCD at HMI by introducing refraction and USANS contrast for tomography.<br />

The new V12 DCD set-up has now been optimised to exploit all the opportunities<br />

of USANS, refraction and USANS contrast tomography and conventional attenuation<br />

contrast tomography with an intense monochromatic neutron beam. The new contrast<br />

methods will be introduced as well as the final set-up of the V12 instrument. Additionally<br />

several examples and results achieved by the new techniques and instrument<br />

will be given.

burg, Germany<br />

The PETRA ring at DESY, presently used as a booster ring, will be reconstructed<br />

and converted to a dedicated 3rd generation light source in the years 2007/2008 [1].<br />

One octant of the machine will be completely remodeled for installation of 14 undulator<br />

beamlines with unprecedented brilliance, particularly suited for experiments with<br />

small or diluted samples requiring small beam size or extreme focusing conditions.<br />

PETRA III will operate in top-up mode at an energy of 6 GeV with a beam current<br />

of 100 mA. The first stored electron beam is expected for the end of 2008, first photon<br />

beam and start of beamline commissioning in early 2009. The e<strong>mit</strong>tance of the<br />

new storage ring will be brought down to 1 nmrad by means of 20 permanent magnet<br />

damping wigglers [2].<br />

In the remodeled octant 8 straight sections will be available for installation of 5 m<br />

long insertion devices (IDs). To enlarge the number of independently operable beamlines,<br />

five of these sections will be used for two 2 m long undulators with a 5 mrad<br />

bend in-between. Furthermore, the straight section at the beginning of the octant<br />

provides space for installation of a 20 m long undulator.<br />

There will be 7 different undulator types, the majority of which are conventional, planar<br />

hybrid undulators of 2 m and 5 m length with two different period lengths. In addition,<br />

five special undulators have been assigned, including a quasi-periodic undulator<br />

with shifted higher harmonics and an APPLE2 device for circularly and elliptically<br />

polarized radiation in the VUV region. Furthermore, two hard X-ray IDs for 30<br />

and 100 keV photons and the 20 m undulator are in the design phase.<br />

A common development of undulators has been started for PETRA III and the European<br />

XFEL [3], the other large future project at DESY to be realized until 2012. Aside<br />

from minor differences the undulator requirements in both projects have a lot in common<br />

regarding their magnetic properties, mechanical stability, and precision of the<br />

motion control system. First devices, which will be available in the near future, are<br />

expected to meet the more demanding requirements regarding specification and performance<br />

of either project.<br />

The TOF texture diffractometer SKAT [1] at the IBR-2 pulsed neutron source of the<br />

Frank Laboratory of Neutron Physics in Dubna is operated by German scientists and<br />

mainly used by Earth scientists due to advantages (in particular, high resolution) for<br />

texture investigations on polyphase rock samples. The pulse repetition rate of 5 s −1<br />

at IBR-2 reactor li<strong>mit</strong>s the maximum accessible range of lattice spacings d to about<br />

4.9 ˚A. This may be sufficient for texture analyses on many polyphase rocks composed<br />

of high-symmetrical constituents, however, successful texture analyses on rocks containing<br />

low-symmetrical constituents may be hampered. Hence, we intend to expand<br />

accessible d-range, which may be achieved by decreasing the scattering angle 2Θ. We<br />

consider construction of a multidetector system with the detectors located at 2Θ =<br />

65 ◦ . Accessible d-range extends to about 6.5 ˚A, giving access to more non-overlapped<br />

Bragg reflections. Deterioration of resolution by about 15-20 % appears to be acceptable.<br />

In addition, the single-axis sample goniometer will be expanded by two more<br />

scanning axes, allowing more complex sample movements and the recording of orientational<br />

data for alternative methods of quantitative texture analysis.<br />

Die Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB), das nationale Metrologie-Institut<br />

der Bundesrepublik Deutschland, errichtet in Berlin-Adlershof einen Niederenergie-<br />

Elektronenspeicherring, die Metrology Light Source (MLS), in direkter Nachbarschaft<br />

zu BESSY II. Die MLS wird als dedizierte Anlage von der PTB hauptsächlich für die<br />

Radiometrie im UV, EUV und VUV genutzt werden und da<strong>mit</strong> BESSY I ersetzen.<br />

Ferner wird es möglich sein, durch Sonderbetrieb <strong>mit</strong> kurzen Elektronen-Bunchen intensive<br />

kohärente Synchrotronstrahlung im FIR/THz-Bereich zu erzeugen. Mit dem<br />

Aufbau der Speicherringanlage in einem neuen Gebäude wurde im Mai 2006 begonnen,<br />

das Commissioning der MLS soll im 2. Quartal 2007 beginnen, Nutzerbetrieb ist ab<br />

Januar 2008 vorgesehen.<br />

Die MLS wurde von der BESSY GmbH nach Vorgaben durch die PTB geplant, die<br />

BESSY GmbH überwacht und steuert auch den Aufbau und wird auch den Betrieb<br />

verantworten. Als Injektor wird ein 100 MeV-Mikrotron dienen, der Ring wird einen<br />

Umfang von 48 m haben und bei Elektronenenergien im Bereich zwischen 200 MeV<br />

und 600 MeV betrieben werden [1]. Die Spektren der Ablenkmagnete (<strong>mit</strong> charakteristischen<br />

Photonenenergien zwischen 12 eV und 314 eV) und eines Undulators ergänzen<br />

perfekt die Röntgenspektren von BESSY II. Für die Radiometrie wird die MLS im Bereich<br />

des VIS, UV, EUV und VUV als berechenbare Strahlungsquelle genutzt werden,<br />

der hierfür erforderliche Sonderbetrieb (meist bei kleinen gespeicherten Elektronenströmen<br />

und bei unterschiedlichen Elektronenenergien) ist bei einer kleinen Anlage<br />

eher problemlos möglich als an großen Nutzereinrichtungen. Monochromatisierte Synchrotronstrahlung<br />

hoher spektraler Reinheit vom UV bis ca. 300 eV Photonenenergie<br />

wird für die Kalibrierung von Detektoren und für Reflektometrie verfügbar sein. Einen<br />

besonderen Schwerpunkt werden Arbeiten zur Entwicklung der EUV-Lithographie darstellen.<br />

Ein Ziel ist, im Rahmen der sich im Aufbau befindlichen europäischen Metrologie<br />

ein Kompetenzzentrum für Radiometrie darzustellen, erweitert in den Röntgenbereich<br />

durch die Messmöglichkeiten der PTB bei BESSY II. Eine weitere Zielrichtung<br />

ist, quantitative Analytik <strong>mit</strong> Synchrotronstrahlung vom THz- bis in den VUV-Bereich<br />

zu entwickeln.<br />

Grundsätzlich ist eine Nutzung durch Externe nicht ausgeschlossen, Erweiterungsmöglichkeiten<br />

durch zusätzliche Strahlrohre sind gegeben.<br />

Die Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB) nutzt seit mehr als 20 Jahren Synchrotronstrahlung<br />

für die Metrologie, insbesondere für die Radiometrie [1]. Bei BESSY<br />

II betreibt die PTB ein Laboratorium <strong>mit</strong> gegenwärtig 10 Messplätzen an 4 Ablenkmagnet-<br />

Strahlrohren und an einem Undulator-Strahlrohr. Monochromatisierte Strahlung hoher<br />

spektraler Reinheit steht vom UV bis in den Röntgenbereich (10 keV) zur Verfügung.<br />

Harte Röntgenstrahlung eines 7 T-Wellenlängenschiebers wird bis zu 60 keV genutzt.<br />

BESSY II wird als berechenbare Strahlungsquelle, als primäres Strahlernormal, genutzt,<br />

um Strahlungsquellen und energiedispersive Detektoren (z. B. Si(Li)-Detektoren)<br />

zu kalibrieren. Herausragende Beispiele dieser Art der Nutzung sind die Kalibrierungen<br />

von Teleskopen für Sonnenmissionen und von Detektoren für die Röntgenastronomie<br />

[2]. Hochgenaue Kalibrierungen von Detektoren, z. B. von Photodioden, werden vom<br />

UV bis in den Röntgenbereich durchgeführt, indem diese Detektoren in monochromatisierter<br />

Strahlung <strong>mit</strong> einem Kryoradiometer als primäres Empfängernormal verglichen<br />

werden [3]. Basierend auf diesen absolut kalibrierten Detektoren werden fundamentale<br />

und angewandte Untersuchungen zur Röntgenfluoreszenzanalyse [4] und Studien der<br />

biologischen Wirksamkeit von Röntgenstrahlen durchgeführt [5]. Ein weiteres wesentliches<br />

Arbeitsgebiet ist die Reflektometrie vom UV- bis in den Röntgenbereich. Hier<br />

stellen zur Zeit Arbeiten zur Entwicklung der EUV-Lithographie einen besonderen<br />

Schwerpunkt dar, der im Rahmen mehrerer Kooperationen <strong>mit</strong> Industrieunternehmen<br />

und <strong>Forschung</strong>seinrichtungen bearbeitet wird [6]. Außerdem wird Röntgenreflektometrie<br />

zur Bestimmung von Schichtdicken im nm-Bereich durchgeführt [7].<br />

Der neue, zur Zeit im Aufbau befindliche dedizierte Niederenergie-Elektronenspeicherring<br />

der PTB, die Metrology Light Source (MLS), wird die Messmöglichkeiten im UV- und<br />

VUV-Bereich wesentlich verbessern und bis in den THz-Bereich hinein erweitern [8].<br />

The Variable Polarization XUV Beamline at PETRA III<br />

Jens Viefhaus 1<br />

1 HASYLAB bei DESY, Notkestr. 85, 22607 Hamburg<br />

The 6 GeV energy of the storage ring PETRA III (DESY, Hamburg) together with<br />

its very low e<strong>mit</strong>tance of 1 nm rad makes it an excellent facility to host a Variable<br />

Polarization XUV Beamline. The high brilliance and flux of the beamline provided<br />

in a broad photon energy range (200 eV to 3000 eV) will open up completely new<br />

scientific opportunities in fields like:<br />

A. Spectromicroscopy<br />

B. High resolution photoelectron spectroscopy<br />

C. Soft X-Ray scattering<br />

D. Magnetic studies E. Gas phase targets<br />

F. Surface Chemistry<br />

Key absorption edges of practically all important elements lie in the range of photon<br />

energies provided by the beamline which creates the possibility to uniquely determine<br />

the element-specific local electronic structure in complex materials by exploiting atomic<br />

resonances.<br />

In the future polarization-dependent studies with soft X-rays will play a key role in<br />

enhancing our knowledge of the structure of matter. The source of the beamline will<br />

be a 5 m APPLE-II-type undulator (65.6 mm period) allowing full polarization control<br />

by the user. The undulator can operate over the whole photon energy range in the<br />

first harmonic thereby simultaneously providing high flux and complete polarization.<br />

Using current technology it is possible to achieve a spectral resolving power of more<br />

than 10000 at 1 keV with an extremely high flux (more than 10 12 photons/sec) focused<br />

on the sample.<br />

Special attention will be paid to provide both small focal spot size as well as high<br />

photon flux required by the different user communities.<br />

Together with the main source parameters a detailed layout of the beamline will be<br />

presented.<br />

User operation of the beamline will start in 2009 right after the startup phase of<br />

PETRA III.

Probenumgebungen für Neutronenstreuexperimente in Kombination <strong>mit</strong> in<br />

situ Gasadsorption unter kontrollierten PVT-Bedingungen<br />

Dirk Wallacher 1 , Astrid Brandt 1<br />

1 Hahn-Meitner-Institut GmbH, Berlin<br />

Das Interesse an Neutronenstreuexperimenten in Kombination <strong>mit</strong> in situ Gasadsorptionsverfahren<br />

hat in den letzten Jahren stark zugenommen. Gasadsorptionsmessungen<br />

gehören zu den Standardmethoden zur Charakterisierung grenzflächenbestimmter, d. h.<br />

nanostrukturierter Materialien. Insbesondere wird diese Methode zur Bestimmung der<br />

Porengrößenverteilung von nanoporösen Medien eingesetzt. Ergänzend dazu bietet vor<br />

allem die Neutronenkleinwinkelstreuung eine einzigartige Möglichkeit, zusätzliche Informationen<br />

über die Porenstruktur und Defekte in mesoporösen Materialien zu gewinnen.<br />

Neben ihrer Bedeutung bei der stetigen Weiterentwicklung dieser Materialien tragen<br />

solche Vergleichsexperimente auch zum Verständnis des Adsoptionsverhaltens und<br />

da<strong>mit</strong> zur theoretischen Modellierung der auf Gasadsorption basierenden Standardcharakterisierungsverfahren<br />

bei. Weiter sind Studien zur Struktur und Dynamik von<br />

Adsorbaten in eingeschränkten Geometrien, die Untersuchung der Einflüsse von Feuchtigkeit<br />

auf biologische Materialien sowie die Erforschung von Materialien zur Interkalation<br />

von Wasserstoff weitere interessante Anwendungsgebiete für Neutronenstreuexperimente<br />

in einer Probenumgebung <strong>mit</strong> der Möglichkeit einer Gasexposition bzw.<br />

Gasadsorption unter definierten PVT (Druck-Volumen-Temperatur)-Bedingungen.<br />

Bedingt durch diese mannigfaltigen Anwendungsaspekte sind die Anforderungen an<br />

die jeweilige experimentelle Umgebung und Technik sehr unterschiedlich. Das Berliner<br />

Zentrum für Neutronenstreuung (BENSC) am Hahn-Meitner-Institut ist im Rahmen<br />

des 2006 angelaufenen ADSO-SE (Adsorption Sample Environment) Projekts bemüht,<br />

Probenumgebungen für einen möglichst großen Teil der nachgefragten Anforderungen<br />

an derartige Neutronenexperimente zur Verfügung zu stellen. Dazu gehören verschiedene<br />

Probenstäbe für die vorhandenen Orange-Kryostaten, die zusammen <strong>mit</strong> einem<br />

automatisierten Gasverteilungssystem die Möglichkeit zur volumetrischen Befüllung einer<br />

Probenzelle über Kapillaren im Temperaturbereich von 2 K-450 K und bei Drücken<br />

von bis zu 200 bar zulässt. Um Neutronenuntersuchungen trotz der teilweise sehr zeitaufwändigen,<br />

volumetrischen Kondensationsmethoden sehr effizient zu gestalten, werden<br />

Möglichkeiten zur gleichzeitigen Präparation mehrer Proben in Verbindung <strong>mit</strong><br />

einem Probenwechsler vorgestellt. Weiter sind im Zusammenhang <strong>mit</strong> dem ADSO-SE<br />

die Entwicklung von geregelten Feuchtigkeitszellen kombiniert <strong>mit</strong> einer gravimetrischen<br />

Messung der aufgenommen Feuchtigkeitsmenge, die Bereitstellung von Durchflusskontrollierten<br />

Zellen <strong>mit</strong> konstanter Druckumgebungen sowie der Aufbau einer<br />

Wasserstoffgeeigneten Hochdruckzelle für Drücke bis ca. 10 kbar vorgesehen.

<strong>Forschung</strong>szentrum Jülich, D-52425 Jülich<br />

Auch nach Beendigung der Messmöglichkeiten am Jülicher <strong>Forschung</strong>sreaktors FRJ-2<br />

besteht insbesondere bei den Geowissenschaften und der Festkörperchemie ein großer<br />

Bedarf an einem Textur- und Pulverneutronendiffraktometer, das auf eine <strong>mit</strong>tlere<br />

Auflösung und hohe Intensität optimiert ist. Die Osthalle am FRM-II in München<br />

kann hier aufgrund des ca. 35 m langen Flugweges der Neutronen besonders den experimentellen<br />

Anforderungen an die geplanten Probenumgebungen einen idealen Experimentierplatz<br />

auf der Basis der Flugzeitmethode liefern.<br />

Das Textur/Pulver-Diffraktometer soll allgemein für die Materialwissenschaften ausgelegt<br />

werden und dabei als Texturdiffraktometer auf die Anforderungen geowissenschaftlicher<br />

Fragestellungen optimiert werden. Aufgrund der vorgesehenen horizontalen<br />

Strahlteilung des SR5 <strong>mit</strong> dem Jülicher TOPAS wird in der Konzeption von einer Ausgangsstrahlgeometrie<br />

von 48 x 48 mm ausgegangen. Dieser wird <strong>mit</strong>tels eines Strahlkompressors<br />

für die Puls-Chopper komprimiert und anschließend wieder dekomprimiert.<br />

Nach dem Puls-Chopper sind noch jeweils ein Band und ein Überlapp-Chopper<br />

geplant. Bei einer Fluglänge von 10 m zwischen Puls-Chopper und Detektoren ergibt<br />

sich bei einer Auflösung von ∆d/d ≤ 5x10 −3 eine Pulsfrequenz von 200 Hz und ein<br />

Wellenband von 2 ˚A, das an die entsprechend benötigten d-Werte anpassbar ist. Das<br />

∆L/L erlaubt da<strong>mit</strong> eine Probengröße von 2,5 cm im Durchmesser, was eine Voraussetzung<br />

für die üblicherweise grobkörnigen polyphasen geologischen Proben ist. Für<br />

Pulvermessungen im mm 3 -Bereich ist ein vom Puls-Chopper weiter fokussierender Leiter<br />

geplant, der <strong>mit</strong> dem dekomprimierenden Leiter alternierend eingebaut werden<br />

kann. Die ortsauflösenden Detektoren befinden sich dabei in Rückstrahlung auf einem<br />

Debye-Scherrer Kegel. Als zweiter Probenort soll eine Hochdruckzelle für extreme Bedingungen<br />

(25 GPa, 3000 K) im Strahl plaziert werden können.<br />

Das Flugzeit-Multidetektorsystem ist auf minimale Probenrotationen ausgelegt, so<br />

dass auch experimentelle Probenumgebungen, wie Scherzellen, uniaxiale Lastrahmen,<br />

HT/HP-Autoklaven und zusätzlich Radiographieuntersuchungen möglich werden. Die<br />

Pulverdiffraktometrie soll in den Bereichen 0,3 - 1500 K und bis 7 Tesla durchgeführt<br />

werden können.

We have used resonant x-ray emission spectroscopy and x-ray absorption spectroscopy<br />

in the soft x-ray range to study liquids. Employing these techniques to liquids is a<br />

technically challenging task requiring a third-generation synchrotron source combined<br />

with a high-efficiency grating spectrometer, and, last but not least, a liquid cell with<br />

an ultra-thin window separating the liquid from the vacuum. Recently several groups<br />

have started experiments with custom-made static cells. To overcome the problems<br />

of these designs with beam-induced effects like gas bubbles and the precipitation of<br />

material on the window, we have developed a flow-through liquid cell. In our design<br />

the liquid in the probing volume is exchanged several times per second thus avoiding<br />

such effects. Furthermore, it allows a fast switching of the investigated liquid, a change<br />

of the concentration of a solved component, and the variation of the temperature within<br />

the probed volume.<br />

With this cell we have investigated the structure of various liquids including H2O,<br />

D2O, NaOH, NaOD, acetic acid, and various aqueous solutions under well-defined<br />

conditions. Our high-resolution spectra reveal details on the hydrogen bonding network<br />

of water and its temperature-dependence. These spectra allow a direct determination<br />

of the number of intact hydrogen bonds per molecule as a function of temperature.<br />

Moreover, the different dynamics of H2O and D2O lead to pronounced isotope effects,<br />

which are also present in the spectra of OH − and OD − ions. The technical design of<br />

a new XES spectrometer and of the flow-through liquid cell as well as new results on<br />

various liquids will be presented.<br />

Gitter-Interferometrie für harte Röntgenstrahlung ist eine relativ junge Entwicklung<br />

[1,2]. Sie ermöglicht quantitative Phasen-Tomographie und -radiographie [3] <strong>mit</strong> Strahlung<br />

von begrenzter Kohärenz bei großen Gesichtsfeldern [4]. Im Vergleich zu anderen<br />

interferometrischen Methoden zeichnet sie sich weiterhin durch einen einfachen Aufbau<br />

(Abb. 1) <strong>mit</strong> hoher mechanischer Stabilität aus. Durch eine geeignete Erweiterung des<br />

Aufbaus kann ein Gitter-Interferometer auch effizient <strong>mit</strong> Strahlung aus herkömmlichen<br />

Röntgenröhren (etwa einer Drehanode) und sogar <strong>mit</strong> Neutronen benutzt werden<br />

[4,5,6]. Außer für Radiographie und Tomographie ist die Methode u. a. zur Charakterisierung<br />

von Wellenfronten und/oder röntgenoptischen Bauelementen geeignet [7].<br />

The FLASH high-resolution monochromator beamline<br />

Hamburg<br />

FLASH at DESY is the first SASE Free electron laser user facility dedicated to delivering<br />

extremely short VUV laser pulses of 20-200 fs duration with very high radiation<br />

energy in the range of few ten microjoules per pulse. It is a powerful tool for molecular<br />

and cluster dynamics investigations, ionization and fragmentation experiments. The<br />

intrinsic energy resolution of the VUV-FEL is in the order of 1 %, which is not sufficient<br />

for quite a number of applications. To make this machine available for a broader range<br />

of questions two high resolution monochromator beamlines were prospected of which<br />

one is in operation since June 2005.<br />

The layout of the monochromator follows the design of Follath and Senf [1] employing a<br />

plane grating monochromator using collimated light with an SX700 pre-mirror grating<br />

optic. For all optical components Diamond-Like-Carbon (DLC) coatings are used to<br />

withstand the high power density of FLASH. The monochromator is equipped with<br />

two gratings (200 and 1200 lines/mm) to cover the energy range from 20 eV to 1000<br />

eV photon energy. Hence, the monochromator covers the whole energy range from the<br />

first harmonic up to the fifth harmonic of FLASH.<br />

In particular for experiments on non linear processes in the soft x-ray region the<br />

statistical nature of the SASE process is critical. Even when the total intensity of two<br />

different FEL puls is similar, the peak intensity might differ significantly. However,<br />

for non-linear processes the peak intensity and not the integrated intensity of the FEL<br />

pulses is important.<br />

Thus, a special monochromator option exists to use the zeroth order from the monochromator<br />

grating for experiments and to analyse FEL pulses in first order. The zeroth<br />

order, which normally is absorbed in the beamdump, can be used in a dedicated zeroth<br />

order beamline PG0 simultaneously with the first order in PG2.<br />

First experiments have been performed using this unique setup on the photoemission<br />

of rare gas atoms. The photoelectron spectra have been measured using time-of-flight<br />

(TOF) photo-electron spectrometers. In the linear region in both channels the same<br />

FEL spectrum should be measured. Thus, in the case of a simple electronic structure,<br />

e. g. the He 1s, the photoelectron spectrum can be used as a probe to measure the<br />

SASE spectrum of each FEL puls. This method will also be suitable as an online<br />

diagnostic tool for the upcoming X-FEL.<br />

Status und zukünftige experimentelle Weiterentwicklung der XAFS Spektroskopie<br />

am DORIS III Speicherring<br />

Derzeit werden am HASYLAB am Speicherring DORIS III drei Messplätze für Röntgenabsorptionsspektroskopie<br />

(XAFS) betrieben. Die Hauptanwendungen kommen aus<br />

den Bereichen Katalyse, Materialforschung und Umweltforschung. Insbesondere im Bereich<br />

der Katalyse werden auch immer wieder Experimente von industriellen Nutzern<br />

durchgeführt. Die Messplätze A1 und E4 sind gut ausgebucht, der Messplatz X1 ist<br />

stark überbucht; die Hauptgründe dafür sind der grosse Energiebereich (7-100 keV)<br />

und die sehr gute Infrastruktur für in-situ Experimente.<br />

Um die Nachfrage der Nutzer zu befriedigen und den X1 zu entlasten wurde in den<br />

letzten 12 Monaten der Messplatz C1 in einen XAFS Messplatz umgebaut. Dort kann<br />

<strong>mit</strong> Hilfe eines neuartigen Doppelkristall-Monochromators der Energiebereich 2,4 -<br />

44 keV abgedeckt werden. Ausserdem steht die für in-situ Experimente notwendige<br />

Infrastruktur zur Verfügung. Am Messplatz A1 soll ein fokussierender Spiegel eingebaut<br />

werden, um den Fluss etwa um den Faktor 10 zu erhöhen und um den Arbeitsbereich<br />

nach unten bis zur Schwefel K-Kante bei 2.4 KeV auszuweiten. Nach Fertigstellung<br />

dieser Umbauten wird der E4 geschlossen werden.<br />

Wir werden die aktuellen Möglichkeiten für XAFS Experimente darstellen und dabei<br />

insbesondere den neuen Messplatz C1 vorstellen. Ausserdem soll die zukünftige Perspektive<br />

der XAFS Spektroskopie nach der Inbetriebnahme von PETRA 3 vorgestellt<br />

werden.<br />

Den meisten XAFS Anwendungen ist gemeinsam, dass sie keine hohe Brillianz benötigen.<br />

Auch wenn es eine Reihe spezieller Anwendungen gibt, die von den einzigartigen<br />

Eigenschaften einer modernen Drittgenerationsquelle profitiert, ist auch in Zukunft für<br />

die Mehrzahl der XAFS Experimente der Einsatz eines Wigglers oder Ablenkmagneten<br />

an einer flussorientierten Quelle <strong>mit</strong> breitem kontinuierlichem Emissionspektrum<br />

und großem Strahldurchmesser wie DORIS III optimal. Nach der Inbetriebnahme von<br />

PETRA 3 könnte am DORIS Speicherring zusätzlich ein Wigglermessplatz für XAFS<br />

Messungen genutzt werden. Das Konzept eines solchen zukünftigen Messplatzes soll<br />

vorgestellt werden.

1 Ruhr-Universität Bochum – 2 Institut Laue-Langevin, Grenoble, Frankreich<br />

Das von der Ruhr-Universität Bochum betriebene, winkeldispersive Reflektometer ADAM<br />

am Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL, Grenoble, Frankreich) bietet durch die Kombination<br />

von hohem Neutronenfluss, hervorragender Q-Auflösung und vollständiger Polarisationsanalyse<br />

weltweit einzigartige Möglichkeiten für die Untersuchung von Grenzflächen<br />

und Dünnschichtsystemen. Seit der Einweihung des Instrumentes vor 10 Jahren wurden<br />

zahlreiche Innovationen implementiert um stets auf dem neuesten Stand in der<br />

Neutronenreflekometrie zu bleiben bzw. das Potenzial vorher nicht realisierter technischer<br />

Neuentwicklungen zu testen. Beispielsweise wurde ein positionsempfindlicher<br />

Detektor <strong>mit</strong> effizienter Ausleseelektronik installiert der nicht nur diffuse Streuung sondern<br />

auch Kleinwinkelstreuung unter streifendem Einfall zugänglich macht. Der Fluss<br />

wurde durch den Einbau eines neuen Monochromators optimiert. Die Polarisationsanalyse<br />

wurde über den gesamten positionsempfindlichen Detektor ausgeweitet und<br />

auf kontaktfreie Spinflipper umgestellt. Außerdem stehen unterschiedlichste, auf das<br />

Instrument optimierte, Probenumgebungen wie Elektromagnet (bis 0.8 T), Kryostat<br />

(10 bis 400 K), Gasbeladungszellen, und verschiedene Scherzellen zur Verfügung. Die<br />

nachhaltigen Anstrengungen bei der Weiterentwicklung und Optimierung des ADAM<br />

Reflektometers haben zu zahlreichen wissenschaftlichen Höhepunkten geführt.<br />

Um weiter Spitzenforschung im Bereich Neutronenreflektometrie betreiben zu können,<br />

neue Messemethoden zugänglich zu machen und gegenüber neueren Instrumenten konkurrenzfähig<br />

zu bleiben, planen wir die Neukonstruktion des Reflektometers <strong>mit</strong> dem<br />

Schwerpunkt in magnetischer Streuung. Das Instrument wird weltweit einzigartige<br />

Möglichkeiten für die Untersuchung magnetischer Dünnschichtsysteme bieten. Der Fluss<br />

des winkeldispersiven Reflektometers wird durch einen neuen Standort <strong>mit</strong> neuem Neutronenleiter<br />

und verbessertem Wellenlängenfilter deutlich erhöht. Wellenlängen zwischen<br />

4 bis 5 ˚A werden flexibel <strong>mit</strong> einer Auflösung von 0.5 und 6 % angeboten. Ein<br />

großer, effizienter und optimiert abgeschirmter Flächendetektor erlaubt das simultane<br />

Messen von Reflektivität und Kleinwinkelstreuung (GISANS). Für die Polarisationsanalyse<br />

über den gesamten positionsempfindlichen Detektor stehen ein 3 He Analysator<br />

und kontaktfreie Flipper zur Verfügung. Darüber hinaus ist eine 3D Polarisationsanalyse<br />

geplant. Ein fokusierender Leiter wird sehr kleine Proben (1 mm 2 ) zugänglich<br />

machen. Eine zusätzliche Option bilden pump-probe Experimente für inelastische Prozesse<br />

und ein Kryostat <strong>mit</strong> einem supraleitenden Magneten für Felder bis 5 T.<br />

In unserem Beitrag geben wir einen kurzen Überblick über kürzlich erzielte, bereits publizierte,<br />

Ergebnisse die an ADAM erzielt wurden und präsentieren die Charakteristika<br />

und das Layout des neu geplanten Instrumentes.

The Materials X-ray Imaging (MAXIM) method allows the imaging of polycrystalline<br />

materials using the diffracted radiation. It applies a bundle of parallel tubes in front of<br />

a position sensitive detector (PSD). These tubes suppress cross fire of the radiation diffracted<br />

at different sample locations. Therefore, an image of the radiation diffracted in<br />

the direction parallel to the tubes is obtained. A dedicated instrument for MAXIM investigations<br />

was realized at HASYLAB beam line G3. The experimental setup consists<br />

of a micro channel plate (MCP) as collimator array in front of a directly illuminated<br />

CCD. The MCP currently used has a thickness of 4 mm and channels of 10 µm diameter<br />

with a centre to centre distance of 12.5 µm. The resulting angular acceptance is<br />

2.5 mrad. The spatial resolution is given by this acceptance times the sample to CCD<br />

distance. At 5 mm (including the 4 mm MCP thickness) this resolution matches the<br />

pixel size of the CCD of 13 µm.<br />

The MAXIM technique has been applied in several investigations of materials including<br />

the determination of strain and texture but also dynamical effects like recrystallization<br />

have been studied. With the setup realized at beam line G3 the usable X-ray energy<br />

range is restricted to energies below 12 keV by the li<strong>mit</strong>ed absorption of both the CCD<br />

and the MCP. Therefore, in most materials only the near surface region can be investigated.<br />

Furthermore, the MCP/CCD combination can only be used in the wide angle<br />

scattering regime. At small angles the CCD would move into the primary beam due to<br />

the small sample to detector distance required for high spatial resolution.<br />

Recently long bundles of glass capillaries became available opening the possibility to<br />

increase the sample to detector distance without loosing resolution. The polycapillaries<br />

used had a length of 300 mm and diameters of 30 µm and were arranged in a hexagonal<br />

array of 8distance between opposing sides. First successful studies were performed<br />

at HASYLAB beam line G3 using the diffractometer usually applied for MAXIM investigations.<br />

They included small angle scattering on polymers at 8 keV [3] and bulk<br />

diffraction on an Al-tube with a flat beam at 26 keV [4].<br />

A dedicated instrument for bulk diffraction imaging and tomography (DITO) is planned<br />

at beam line W2 (HARWI II). Another possibility to investigate bulk properties<br />

is the application of neutrons. In this case capillary arrays of boron silicate showing a<br />

high absorption for neutrons can be applied in combination with a position sensitive<br />

neutron detector like a Li6 glass scintilator coupled to a position sensitive photomultiplier<br />

[5].<br />

Neutrons usually are used for residual stress analysis starting from approx. 1 mm below<br />

the components surface. Their restriction for the near-surface regime is due to<br />

the li<strong>mit</strong>ed size of the gauge-volume, the beam divergency and the geometrical effects<br />

when the gauge volume is touching the components surface and a wavelength gradient.<br />

Recently several successful approaches to explore the near surface region have<br />

been published. Here a full simulation of the neutron diffractometer is used for calibration<br />

of near-surface measurements. Detailed monte-carlo simulations of an angular<br />

dispersive neutron diffractometer for residual stress analysis are presented. Theoretical<br />

calculations validated by measurements of standard samples lead to correction terms<br />

for a partially filled gauge-volume. Geometrical effects of a shifted point of mass of<br />

the scattering volume due to a surface crossing the gauge volume can be numerically<br />

calculated. Absorption effects and a given wavelength distribution as well as the beam<br />

divergency and the slit distances are taken into account. The simulation is done using<br />

the McStas framework for neutron simulations.<br />

The reference system for the simulation is the E3 neutron diffractometer at the HMI<br />

Berlin. Geometrical and physical properties of the E3 are known and used as parameters<br />

for the simulation to ensure a maximum reliability of the simulation. The samples<br />

geometrical shape can be taken into account. Also, a phase-dependant orientation distribution<br />

function for the crystallites can be given as parameters for the simulation.<br />

This way, single crystals, powders and textured materials can be simulated using the<br />

same algorithms. The data analysis is done using the same tools as they are used for<br />

the E3 data produced by the CARESS environment, i.e. TVTueb. This way, it is easy<br />

to compare the data produced by the simulation with the experiments data.<br />

Experimental data of a simple with residual stress can be compared with a simulated<br />

powder sample of same shape. This way, when permorming a near-surface scan, where<br />

the gauge-volume is partially filled and the peak-shifts due to geometrical effects are<br />

high, the simulation helps to identify, which shift is due to geometrical effects. The<br />

remaining peak-shift can then be identified as a result of residual stress.

The GKSS-Research Center Geesthacht, Germany, is operating the user experiment for<br />

microtomography using synchrotron radiation at the storage ring DORIS 3 at DESY<br />

Hamburg. In the last two years the beamline W2 was rebuilt. The outstanding feature<br />

of this synchrotron radiation beamline HARWI 2 is the use of high energy X-rays from<br />

20 to 250 keV for materials science experiments. The new features for microtomography<br />

at HARWI 2, new enhancements and applications using lower photon energies at the<br />

wiggler beamline BW2 will be given. Furthermore at the research reactor FRG-1 the<br />

neutron radiography facility GENRA 3 was recently extended by a setup for neutron<br />

tomography. First results performing SRµCT at HARWI 2 and NCT at GENRA 3 will<br />

be presented. The combination of neutron and synchrotron radiation techniques will<br />

give new insight into the three-dimensional behavior of samples in materials science.

State of the art tomography systems at synchrotron sources nowadays offer outstanding<br />

possibilities with respect to e.g. spatial resolution or density discrimination. Another<br />

important feature of synchrotron-based tomography is the reduction of the scanning<br />

time down to a few seconds for a whole tomographic dataset which is in principle<br />

possible due to the high brilliance of the source. CCD-detectors and computer hardware<br />

which are fast enough to fulfil the requirements become available nowadays and with<br />

this the developments of new setups begin to emerge. A reduction of the scanning time<br />

to short scanning periods offers new experimental possibilities e.g. for so called 4D<br />

which means in-situ time dependent dynamic tomography examinations. Furthermore,<br />

due to the reduction of the radiation dose, in-vivo biomedical studies will become<br />

available at synchrotrons sources.<br />

In order to achieve the possibilities for these dynamic studies we have developed a<br />

new multipurpose tomography system which is currently installed at the high energy<br />

material science beamline HARWI-2 at HASYLAB/DESY in Hamburg/Germany. The<br />

beam characteristics with a geometric cross section of up to 10x80 mm 2 and the energy<br />

range of 20-200 keV offers a wide spectrum for the analysis of samples with a high<br />

diversity in absorption and geometry. The detector characteristics will allow scanning<br />

times of below 5 s for a complete dataset at about 20 microns spatial resolution using a<br />

monochromatic beam. The maximum spatial resolution is about 2 microns. A special<br />

feature of the system is the possibility to perform simultaneous spatially resolved diffraction<br />

and tomography measurements. Thus the system will allow the determination<br />

of e.g. the residual strain map and the 3D morphology of a sample during a single<br />

experimental scan. In our poster we will demonstrate the key features of our system<br />

as well as first preliminary results.

Erhöhte Temperatur und anliegende mechanische Spannung<br />

ist ein typisches Beanspruchungsprofil für bewegte<br />

Bauteile in Motoren, Turbinen etc. Dieses Beanspruchungsprofil<br />

führt zu Änderungen der Werkstoffmikrostruktur,<br />

die lebensdauerbegrenzend sein können. Um<br />

hier Verbesserungen zu erzielen, werden die metallischen<br />

Matrizes <strong>mit</strong> keramischen Hartpartikeln (MMC) verstärkt.<br />

Die gezielte Optimierung der MMC hinsichtlich<br />

Anzahl der Partikel (Morphologie und Größe) und Volumenanteil<br />

erfordert Informationen über die Versagensmechanismen<br />

unter verschiedenen Last-Temperaturbedingungen.<br />

Hierzu liefert die in situ Synchrotron-Röntgentomographie<br />

[1] entscheidende Beiträge. Eine für den<br />

Einsatz am Synchrotron entwickelte Miniatur-Kriech-<br />

Abb. 1: In-situ Kriechapparatur apparatur (Abb. 1) ermöglicht in-situ-Messungen [2]. Mittels<br />

Synchrotronstrahlung (Beamline ID15A, ESRF) können<br />

Materialvolumina bis zu 1 mm 3 bei einer Auflösung bis zu 1 µm 3 untersucht werden.<br />

Die zur Festigkeitssteigerung stranggepresste und anschließend wärmebehandelte<br />

Aluminiumlegierung AA6061 (AlMg1SiCu) wurde <strong>mit</strong> 22 % Al2O3 partikelverstärkt.<br />

Die Al2O3-Partikel (Größe∼ 12 µm) besitzen eine irreguläre Form und sind in der metallischen<br />

Matrix homogen verteilt. Das stabile Aluminiumoxid wird in der Anwesenheit<br />

von Mg>1 % in der Matrix bzw. bei höheren Temperaturen instabil und bildet<br />

Al2MgO4 (spinel). Diese Interface-Reaktion kann bei mechanischer und thermischer<br />

Belastung zur Loslösung der Partikel von der Matrix führen. Im Kriechversuch wurde<br />

AA6061 (22 % Al2O3) <strong>mit</strong> verschiedenen Spannungen und Temperaturen beaufschlagt.<br />

Im Beanspruchungsprofil kleine Last/ hohe Temperatur tritt Porenbildung am Interface<br />

Partikel/ Matrix auf und führt zum Versagen. Demgegenüber wird das Versagen<br />

im Beanspruchungsprofil hohe Last/ niedrige Temperatur eingeleitet durch Partikelbrüche.<br />

Gefügeänderungen wie Mikroverformungen und -schädigungen, die durch Zugbelastung<br />

verursacht werden, gehen dem makroskopischen Bruch eines Bauteils voraus. Um zum<br />

Verständnis dieser Prozesse beizutragen, werden Gefügebereiche von Zugproben auf<br />

verschiedenen Verformungsstufen mikrotomographisch abgebildet und das Verhalten<br />

dieser Gefügeausschnitte <strong>mit</strong> Hilfe der FE-Methode simuliert.<br />

Die Zugproben bestehen hierbei aus partikelverstärkten Metallmatrixverbundwerkstoffen<br />

(wie bspw. Kobalt/Diamant oder Al/TiN), welche pulvermetallurgisch hergestellt<br />

werden. Tomogramme eines Teilvolumens des Zugprobenstegs werden aus Projektionsdaten<br />

rekonstruiert, die in verschiedenen Verformungszuständen genommen werden.<br />

Zur Datenerhebung werden sowohl ein <strong>mit</strong> einer Mikrofokusröntgenröhre ausgestatteter<br />

Computertomograph als auch ein Röntgentomographiemikroskop verwendet,<br />

das unter Verwendung monochromatischer Synchrotronstrahlung betrieben wird.<br />

Mit Hilfe von 3D-Datenverarbeitung werden die Tomogramme in 3D-Oberflächennetze<br />

überführt, die ausschließlich aus Dreiecken bestehen und die die Grenzflächen der Phasen<br />

des Verbundwerkstoffes beschreiben. Diese Netze werden anschließend hinsichtlich<br />

der Anzahl und Form der Dreiecke optimiert. Ausgehend von diesen Oberflächennetzen,<br />

welche als Keimflächen dienen, wird ein lückenloses, nur aus Tetraedern bestehendes<br />

3D-FE-Netz aufgebaut. Die 3D-FE-Simulationen werden sowohl unter Verwendung<br />

von willkürlichen als auch realistischen Randbedingungen durchgeführt. Realistische<br />

Bedingungen werden <strong>mit</strong> Hilfe einer iterativen Korrespondenzanalyse zwischen Tomogrammen<br />

desselben Gefügebereiches in verschiedenen Verformungsstadien gewonnen.<br />

Die Effekte der Netzfeinheit und des Typs des finiten Elements (Tetraeder oder Hexaeder)<br />

auf die simulierten Spannungsverteilungen werden diskutiert. Das Auftreten<br />

und die Entwicklung von plastischen Zonen in der Matrix in Abhängigkeit der außen<br />

aufgebrachten Verschiebungsfelder wird in den Simulationen studiert. Die Orte<br />

der errechneten maximalen Spannungen werden <strong>mit</strong> den im Tomogramm gefundenen<br />

Positionen der Rissentstehung verglichen.

X-ray microtomography (µCT) is a method for 3D imaging of objects at spatial resolution<br />

of around one micrometer. In µCT, the volume structure, more precisely, the<br />

distribution of the x-ray attenuation coefficient is reconstructed from 2D projection<br />

images. The unique properties of synchrotron radiation (SR), especially the small<br />

bandwidth available in monochromated beams, enable the precise determination of<br />

the attenuation coefficient in synchrotron radiation based microtomograhy (SRµCT).<br />

To make full use of the capabilities of SR radiation, the recorded data must be properly<br />

processed. New developments of the x-ray detector design and the reconstruction<br />

chain have been made. Especially, a new method for the determination of the center<br />

of rotation in the recorded data is presented [1]. Examples of quantitative measurements<br />

performed at the Hamburger Synchrotronstrahlungslabor (HASYLAB) at the<br />

<strong>Deutsche</strong>s Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY) are given. This contribution summarizes<br />

part of the first author’s PhD thesis.<br />

Positronen sind ideale Sonden zur zerstörungsfreien Untersuchung von leerstellenartigen<br />

Defekten im Festkörper. Aus Positronenlebensdauermessungen erhält man Information<br />

über Art und Konzentration von Leerstellen, Leerstellenclustern und Versetzungen.<br />

Konventionelle Positronenannihilationsmethoden erlauben jedoch keine tiefenselektive<br />

Zuordnung der Defekte, da über makroskopische Volumina ge<strong>mit</strong>telt wird.<br />

Zudem beschränkt Sättigungseinfang der Positronen in einem Defekt die Möglichkeit<br />

zur Bestimmung der Defektkonzentration. Diese Nachteile werden durch den Einsatz<br />

gepulster, niederenergetischer Positronenstrahlen zur Lebensdauermessung weitgehend<br />

beseitigt. Mit gepulsten Positronenstrahlen variabler Energie können Tiefenauflösungen<br />

im Nanometerbereich erzielt werden. Aus Tiefenprofilmessungen kann zudem selbst<br />

bei Sättigungseinfang die Defektkonzentration er<strong>mit</strong>telt werden.<br />

An der Universität der Bundeswehr in München wurden zwei gepulste Positronenstrahlsysteme<br />

zur Lebensdauermessung entwickelt: Die gepulste Positronenquelle PLEPS<br />

[1] zur Tiefenprofilierung von Defektverteilungen, sowie das Rasterpositronenmikroskop<br />

SPM [2] <strong>mit</strong> einer zusätzlichen lateralen Auflösung von derzeit 2 µm.<br />

Mit beiden Systemen wurden unter anderem Defektverteilungen in der Nähe von<br />

Rissoberflächen in Aluminiumlegierungen und in reinem Kupfer, die von Ermüdungsund<br />

Gewaltbrüchen herrühren, erfolgreich untersucht [3,4]. Dabei konnte anhand der<br />

Positronenlebensdauer quantitativ zwischen Gewalt- und Ermüdungsbruch unterschieden<br />

werden: Neben hohen Vesetzungsdichten wurden in der Nähe von Ermüdungsrissen<br />

auch Leerstellencluster nachgewiesen. Bei Gewaltbrüchen wurde hingegen nur eine hohe<br />

Versetzungsdichte in Rissnähe beobachtet.<br />

Beide Strahlsysteme werden zur Zeit an die Hochflusspositronenquelle (NEPOMUC)<br />

am <strong>Forschung</strong>sreaktor FRM-II in München transferiert. Eine um den Faktor 10 4 erhöhte<br />

Positronenstrahlintensität eröffnet einzigartige neue Möglichkeiten zur Untersuchung<br />

der Defektstruktur in Rissnähe [5].<br />

ECAP processing of the as-cast and the as-extruded Mg-Si alloys at different rotation<br />

routes A, B(c), and C from 1 pass to 8 passes was performed in the present work.<br />

Texture evolution of the deformed samples was measured by neutron diffraction at<br />

TEX-2 GKSS. ODF was calculated by series expansion method. For both as-cast and<br />

as-extruded Mg-Si alloys, results showed that route A processing, which the sample do<br />

not rotated between two passes, got the highest pole intensity in each pole figures; while<br />

route Bc processing, which the sample continuously rotated 90 ◦ between two passes,<br />

has the lowest pole density in each pole figures. As for the cast alloys, basal planes<br />

tilted about 10 ◦ around the normal direction after 1 pass deformation; and after 4<br />

passes the intensity increased, but texture type has not changed; 8 passes deformation<br />

made the basal planes nearly parallel to the extrusion-transition direction though the<br />

pole intensity have not changed. Especially, similar as the Mg alloys rolling texture,<br />

which basal planes parallel to the extrusion direction, was formed after 8 passes route<br />

C deformation. As for the extruded Mg-Si alloys, two intensity peaks occurred after<br />

route B(c) processing, which attributed to the 45 ◦ back-and-forth shear deformation.

Röntgenmikroskopie ist wegen ihrer hohen räumlichen und spektralen Auflösung ein<br />

wichtiges Instrument zur Untersuchung kolloidalen Systeme aus den Umweltwissenschaften<br />

in ihrer natürlichen wässrigen Umgebung. Dabei können Proben von Dicken<br />

bis zu 10 µm in Transmission abgebildet werden bei einer Auflösung von derzeit 20 nm.<br />

Bei Aufnahmen <strong>mit</strong> Röntgenlicht oberhalb und unterhalb einer Absorptionskante kann<br />

die jeweilige Elementverteilung in der Probe dargestellt werden. Besonders wichtig<br />

für das Verständnis dieser Systeme ist ihr dynamisches Verhalten etwa bei Zugabe<br />

anderer Substanzen. Um die Dynamik direkt im Röntgenmikroskop auszulösen und<br />

beobachten zu können, sind spezielle Probenhalter entwickelt worden. Bei Aufnahmen<br />

unter verschiedenen Kippwinkeln kann <strong>mit</strong>hilfe eines selbst entwickelten Programms<br />

zur stereoskopischen Darstellung Information über die räumliche Anordnung kolloidaler<br />

Strukturen, z.B. Kollokalisation bestimmter Partikel, sowie über deren dynamisches<br />

Verhalten gewonnen werden. Die für die Tomographie benötigte Kryofixierung erlaubt<br />

diese Art der Untersuchungen nicht.

Der Charme eines Schwerionen-Raster-Mikroskops besteht, wie auch bei anderen Rastersonden-Mikroskopen<br />

darin, dass beliebig exotische Antworten eines Targets auf einen<br />

Ionenbeschuss zur Bilderzeugung verwenden können. Diese Vielfalt wird zusätzlich<br />

durch die große Zahl verfügbarer Elemente erweitert, sodass das Schwerionen-Raster-<br />

Mikroskop speziell <strong>mit</strong> sehr schweren Ionen sogar als mechanisches Werkzeug verwendet<br />

werden kann.<br />

möglich werden.

Fokussierung harter Röntgenstrahlung <strong>mit</strong> linearen<br />

Off-Axis-Reflexionszonenplatten<br />

Für viele hochauflösende Imaging-Experimente <strong>mit</strong> harter Röntgenstrahlung ist die<br />

fokussierende Optik die entscheidende Komponente.<br />

Reflexionszonenplatten (RZP) bieten einen vielversprechenden Ansatz, das Prinzip<br />

der Fresnelsche Zonenplatten auf harte Röntgenstrahlung zu übertragen ohne an die<br />

Grenzen der Strukturierung zu stoßen [1,2]. Die Off-Axis-Konstruktion trennt den Fokus<br />

räumlich von der spekulär reflektierten nullten Ordnung der Zonenplatte (Abb. 1).<br />

Da<strong>mit</strong> wird die Untergrundstrahlung stark reduziert. Wegen des kleinen Totalreflexionswinkels<br />

liegen die Zonenbreiten einer RZP im Bereich einiger Mikrometer und sind<br />

daher einfach zu strukturieren. Simulationen zeigen, dass <strong>mit</strong> diesen Strukturgrößen<br />

Fokusdurchmesser im Bereich von unter 100 nm erreicht werden können (Abb. 2).<br />

We report results of first spectromicroscopy experiments that have been performed<br />

with the scanning transmission X-ray microscope (STXM) at the electron storage ring<br />

BESSY II in Berlin. This instrument has been designed especially for the use with the<br />

undulator U41, which supplies it with radiation in the range of 200-600 eV. This energy<br />

range has been chosen as the K-absorption edges of carbon, nitrogen and oxygen, as well<br />

as the L-absorption edges of potassium and calcium can be used for spectromicroscopy<br />

experiments. It is well-known within the field of X-ray microscopy as the so-called<br />

water window. The main goal of the STXM at BESSY II is to enable studies of<br />

colloidal systems from the environment and from material sciences directly in aqueous<br />

media. By finely tuning the energy of the used X-radiation around an absorption edge<br />

it is possible to first of all determine the distribution of that element within the sample.<br />

Secondly, just before the edge jump in absorption resonance, i.e. below the actual edge<br />

energy, resonance features can be observed representing chemical binding states.<br />

We have performed first spectromicroscopy experiments with colloidal systems from<br />

environmental as well as from material sciences. A soil science wise well-characterized<br />

sample from a Chernozem soil with 0.1 % humics has been used, because of its known<br />

high organic content (approx. 4 %). Sequences of images, so called stacks are recorded<br />

around the carbon edge in the fashion described above. This data set consists in N<br />

transmission images in (x, y) taken at N energies EN with P number of pixels each. The<br />

doses on each pixel applied when taking a stack is the same as when fixing the position<br />

of the X-ray spot on the sample and just taking a spectrum by tuning only the energy.<br />

The advantage is the availability of the chemical information within the whole image.<br />

The same (x, y, E) data set would have been obtained by acquiring a series of spectra<br />

of adjacent pixels.<br />

The data sets of the stacks obtained during the experiments have been analyzed<br />

using cluster analysis. This algorithm consists of a method of grouping pixels with<br />

similar experimentally determined spectra and then analyze the data according to<br />

these groups. A principal component analysis representation is priory applied to the<br />

data set for noise filtering and orthogonalizing it. Two cluster analysis methods have<br />

been involved, so that the pixels are grouped according to their Euclidian distance from<br />

a given cluster center, and respectively to their angular distribution with respect to the<br />

cluster center. We were able to localize the clay particles reach in potassium inside<br />

the soil colloids, as well as the organic domains reach in carbon. Spatially distinctive<br />

images of these domains are to be observed together with the corresponding spectra<br />

where potassium, respectively carbon absorption edges are lined out.

Using phase information present in a beam after transmission through a sample offers<br />

the possibility of reducing the delivered dose while maintaining the visible contrast.<br />

Several phase sensivitive imaging techniques have been developed in recent<br />

years, among them in-line holography[1], which is now used on a routine base, and<br />

analyser based techniques[2] whose feasibility for medical imaging is currently under<br />

investigation.<br />

Although known for a long time imaging with asymmetric Bragg reflection as magnification<br />

optics[3] may be regarded as a further development of analyser based imaging<br />

providing two dimensional phase contrast while its two dimensional magnification yields<br />

the possibility of using thick fluorescence screens as x-ray to visual photon converter<br />

(i.e. commercial CCD-area detectors) thus enhancing detection efficiency at submicrometer<br />

resolution. Furthermore, imaging with asymmetric Bragg reflection provides<br />

a strong phase contrast and a large field of view on the sample.<br />

Recently, our group developed a full theoretical description of the imaging process<br />

(including the influences of Bragg reflection and free-space propagation)[4]. This enabled<br />

us to verify that a submicrometer resolution li<strong>mit</strong> is achievable, to estimate the<br />

minimum detectable phase gradient present in the beam corresponding directly to the<br />

minimum detectable density variation in the sample and to understand the influences<br />

of beam divergence and dispersion effects. It also provides crucial information about<br />

future improvements of the experimental setup.<br />

In order to avoid artefacts during tomographic reconstructions phase retrieval algorithms<br />

have to be applied to the measured images. Several of these algorithms have<br />

been reported in literature differing in the underlying model of contrast formation (i.e.<br />

the presence of coherence, absorption or small angle scattering) and thus producing<br />

different kinds of quantative information about the sample. Our latest measurements<br />

at the ID-19/ESRF beamline will help to identify the most appropriate algorithm in<br />

case of magnifying analyser based imaging. Furthermore, we expect to directly measure<br />

the maximum achievable resolution li<strong>mit</strong> in experiment for both two dimensional<br />

imaging and three dimensional reconstruction.<br />

High resolution synchrotron-tomography investigations<br />

on novel rapidly resorbable bone substitutes<br />

(ceramics like Bioglass, Cerasorb) and demineralised<br />

performed with high spatial resolutions at the storage<br />

ring BESSY (BAMline). The use of monochromatic<br />

radiation and the application of subsequent<br />

3d image analysis [1] enables us to separate different<br />

material phases in the volume data sets, e.g. tissue<br />

and ceramics in a reshaping jawbone (fig. 1, top).<br />

Quantitative determination of the formation and the<br />

structural changes of the bony tissue in a given defect<br />

plus the biodegradation of the bone substitute<br />

materials within animal and human biopsies 3, 4 and<br />

6 months after implantation were performed. Parallel<br />

human tooth samples in different demineralisation<br />

stages were imaged as an loss of mineralized<br />

tissues (bone and tooth) is the first stage of caries<br />

and periodontitis (fig. 1, bottom). The demineralized<br />

tissue can be detected in the volume images<br />

due to it’s lower density. By quantitative analysis of<br />

the data one obtains information about the disease<br />

growing’s time-dependence. A comparison of nontreated<br />

infected teeth with treated ones (e.g. fluoridation)<br />

delivers information about the quality of different<br />

regeneration approaches. The aim of current<br />

and future research projects is to develop regenerative<br />

strategies by means of tissue engineering.<br />

Influence of Noise and Partial Coherence on Resolution in Coherent Diffractive<br />

Imaging Experiments<br />

Coherent X-ray diffraction imaging (CXDI) [1] is a suitable method to determine the<br />

structure of small, non-periodic objects up to a resolution on nanometer length scale.<br />

It can be considered as a microscopic technique providing information on physical<br />

properties of materials in a variety of scientific fields, e.g. whole-cell imaging [2] and<br />

mesoporous structures. The method, also named lensless imaging, is simply based on<br />

measuring of the Fraunhofer X-ray diffraction pattern of an object. Instead of using<br />

lenses or other optical components for image formation the structure of the object is<br />

reconstructed with the help of numerical algorithms which are able to recover the phase<br />

information in the diffraction pattern. From this view the numerical reconstruction is<br />

simply acting as a lens in an optical system. The achievable resolution of this method<br />

of structure determination depends in principle only on the used wavelength and the<br />

largest recorded diffraction angle. Nevertheless, the latter requirement is li<strong>mit</strong>ed by<br />

the specific experimental arrangement, i.e. distance between sample and detector,<br />

detector size, signal to noise ratio, and especially by the total incoming coherent photon<br />

flux. As a result of a strong decrease of the diffracted photon intensity towards larger<br />

diffraction angles, i.e. I(q) ∼ q −3 , the amount of photons at large q-values determines<br />

the resolution. A systematic series of numerical simulations was carried out aiming<br />

to investigate the li<strong>mit</strong>ations in resolution due to a restricted number of incoming<br />

photons.<br />

In further simulations we considered additionally a second important factor which is<br />

the influence of partial coherent illumination. In this case, the visibility of the interference<br />

fringes is reduced which leads to a certain degree of smearing in the diffraction<br />

pattern. This effect is not taken into account by the numerical algorithms (Hybrid-<br />

Input-Output Method [3]) that are usually used and thus, it can essentially affect the<br />

result of a reconstruction using a partially blurred data set.<br />

The results of these numerical simulations together with a comparison to the results<br />

of a CXD-experiment carried out at ID01 (ESRF) [4] will be presented on a poster.<br />

Refractive planar X-ray lenses with linear parabolic profiles are fabricated from SU-8<br />

polymer by direct deep X-ray lithography at the IMT beamlines of the ANKA storage<br />

ring at <strong>Forschung</strong>szentrum Karlsruhe. The lenses are usually arranged in crossed configuration<br />

for focussing in two directions and in several sets on a single support wafer<br />

in order to cover a wide energy range, e.g. from 5-30 keV. At the ANKA FLUO-TOPO<br />

beam line these lenses frequently have been tested and characterized[1,2], and furthermore<br />

they are regularly used for scanning and mapping applications using micrometer<br />

sized probe beams or full-field imaging applications.<br />

For scanning applications a probe beam size down to 500 nm FWHM could be realized<br />

employing a source demagnification by a factor of approx. 400. With this micro probe<br />

x-ray fluorescence mapping in two and three dimensions was applied to samples like<br />

environmental particles, bones and biological tissue, the excitation energies ranged<br />

between 5 and 28 keV.<br />

For applications in x-ray microscopy using absorption or phase contrast the x-ray lens<br />

was placed behind the micro- and nanoscaled objects in order to form an x-ray image<br />

on the recording CCD camera. The measured resolution of the images was 400±50 nm<br />

that corresponded to the projection optical scheme with 18 mm focal distance of the<br />

lens 30 m remote from the source. The sensitivity of the imaging set-up to even low<br />

phase contrast (≈ 0.065) is demonstrated by visualizing details in human lungs cells<br />

with magnification of 50.

X-ray spectromicroscopy is a powerful tool for addressing key questions in environmental<br />

sciences due to its high spectral and spatial resolution. As X-ray microscopy<br />

achieves a much higher resolution than its visible light counterpart due to the much<br />

shorter wavelength smallest structures around 20 nm in sizecan be seen. Imaging specimens<br />

directly in aqueous media is possible as well as performing spectromicroscopy<br />

studies by choosing an appropriate X-ray wavelength. Due to their surface activity,<br />

colloidal structures are involved in a variety of chemical and physical processes. Nutrients<br />

and toxicants can be bound and immobilized or transported, colloids can attach<br />

to microorganisms building up microhabitats, and organic matter as humic substances<br />

can flocculate due to interaction with metals.<br />

In this work, interest was focused on the appearance of colloidal structures from soils<br />

and groundwater aquifers, their distribution and the effect of changing chemical conditions<br />

in the aqueous environment. X-ray microscopy images reveal the morphology<br />

and its changes due to varied chemical conditions. With X-ray spectromicroscopy organic<br />

matter could be identified within structures of soil colloids and spectra have been<br />

analyzed for major components. Functional groups have been determined and mapped<br />

in relation to changes in the chemical condition. The role of different sulfur species in<br />

an entire soil profile has been assessed. Clay dispersions and microhabitats as well as<br />

humic substances have been imaged tomographically. The 3D reconstruction conveys<br />

the influence of oxidation on the morphology of humic substances as well as the internal<br />

structure of associations of bacteria and inorganic soil colloids.

Coherent X-ray Diffraction Imaging<br />

Ivan Vartaniants 1<br />

1 HASYLAB at DESY, Notkestr. 85, D-22607 Hamburg, Germany<br />

Coherent x-ray diffraction (CXD) imaging is a new experimental method for studying<br />

perfect and imperfect crystals. The method has become available by the recent development<br />

of high-brilliance third generation sources of synchrotron radiation (ESRF,<br />

APS, SPRING-8). The beams coherence volume being of the order of few microns can<br />

entirely enclose a nano-size object. Instead of incoherent averaging, a coherent sum<br />

of amplitudes produces a coherent diffraction pattern originating from the real space<br />

arrangement of the sample. If high-quality x-ray lenses were available as they are for<br />

electrons, such diffraction patterns could be transformed to magnified images directly.<br />

However such x-ray microscopes still suffer a lot from optics aberration and resolution<br />

is often li<strong>mit</strong>ed to the pixel size of the CCD.<br />

In this talk it will be shown how the objective lens of the microscope can be replaced by<br />

a special iterative phase reconstruction procedure that inverts intensity measurements<br />

of the CXD pattern to real space image. The method is based on the fact that the<br />

diffraction pattern can be oversampled relative to its spatial Nyquist frequency so that<br />

the Fourier transform can be overdetermined in spite of missing phase information. In<br />

principle this method does not have any li<strong>mit</strong>ations on the available resolution.<br />

Several applications of the method will be given in the talk. It will be shown how 3D<br />

images of the interiors of Au nanocrystals that show 50 nm wide bands of contrast with<br />

111 orientation can be obtained applying this technique [1]. The size of the objects<br />

can be further reduced to the size of the quantum dots samples if repetitive motive in<br />

the form of 2D crystal is used. It will be demonstrated that in the case of coherent<br />

illumination of these samples the correct shape and orientation of individual island<br />

can be obtained. In the case of partially coherent illumination the correct shape of<br />

the particle can be obtained only when the coherence of the incoming beam is reduced<br />

to match the size of the island [2]. In the last example experimental results of CXD<br />

scattering on the sample of specially fabricated GeSi islands of nanometer size and in<br />

a regular array embedded to Si substrate will be shown [3]. Two geometries of scattering<br />

that is grazing incidence diffraction (GID) and grazing incidence small angle x-ray<br />

scattering (GISAXS) were used. Applying a microfocuse coherent beam on our sample<br />

give rise to coherent diffraction pattern with Bragg spots and broad diffuse maxima in<br />

GID geometry. The GISAXS pattern has a typical shape resulting from the periodic<br />

array of identical islands. This diffraction pattern was used to reconstruct the average<br />

shape of the islands using a model independent phase retrieval algorithms.<br />

Due to the rapidly growing environmental and economical problems of natural energy<br />

resources in the near future, the development and optimization of fuel cells is one of<br />

the most pressing goals for science and technology today. A key process governing<br />

the efficiency of those cells is the ion mobility within the electrolyte being solid in<br />

the most common types. State of the art models of transport processes in super<br />

ion conductors are based on quantum molecular dynamics which do not take into<br />

account the existence of short-lived (i. e. atto-second) quantum entanglement and fast<br />

decoherence [1]. In recent years, an anomalous shortfall of neutron Compton scattering<br />

intensity has been observed in hydrogen-containing compounds and which has been<br />

attributed to the aforementioned quantum phenomena; cf. [2]. Here we present new<br />

experimental results, which indicate a strong anomalous shortfall of scattering intensity<br />

of the protons in the fast proton conductor H3OSbTeO6 (pyrochlore-type).<br />

The displayed figure shows the measured (at T=298) ratio Rexp of scattering intensity<br />

of H of H3OSbTeO6 relative to that of all heavier atoms (O, Sb, and Te), normalised<br />

with the expected value according to conventional theory, Rconv. An anomalous shortfall<br />

of Rexp in the range 20-30 % is found. These results suggest that the ion transport<br />

phenomenon in the electrolyte may be governed by a thus far unconsidered mechanism,<br />

i. e., by the quantum entanglement of the protons and by decoherence due to the interaction<br />

with the surrounding atoms. This experimental finding may have consequences<br />

for the theoretical description of transport processes of protons in solids.<br />

Is lithium hydride LiH or LiH0.5? This is just a question of time!<br />

Tyno Abdul-Redah 1<br />

1 Institut f. Chemie, Str. d. 17. Juni 135, TU Berlin, Germany.<br />

The particles of a macroscopic condensed system are subject to continuous mutual<br />

interactions leading to quantum correlated states in which the particles become invisible.<br />

The survival time of these states in condensed matter is generally expected to<br />

be very short because of the fast and effective decoherence due to interaction with the<br />

remaining environment. However, it is indeed possible to measure their effects if the<br />

experimental technique is fast enough, e.g., using neutron Compton scattering (NCS)<br />

with scattering times < 10 −15 s. Due to its low mass, hydrogen (H) is particularly<br />

suitable to be involved in those states. NCS experiments on various solid compounds<br />

like metal hydrogen systems have been done [1]. The effect manifests itself by a strong<br />

anomalous decrease of the scattering cross section of H with respect to the conventional<br />

expectation (see figure). In simple terms, as an example, the ionic hydride<br />

lithium hydride appears then as LiH0.5 rather than LiH in the subfemtosecond time<br />

scale of the experiment [2]. The anomaly varies among others with scattering time and<br />

with temperature depending on the chemical bond and the electronic environment of<br />

the hydrogen in the particular chemical compound. This effect cannot be explained in<br />

that way that the protons scatter as individual entities. New experimental results on<br />

solid LiH, LaHx, NbHx will be presented along with the dependence of the anomaly<br />

on the crystal structure as well as on the electronic environment of the proton. The<br />

importance of this effect for physics and chemistry will be outlined.<br />

Kohärenzverlust und -transfer in molekularen Doppelspaltexperimenten<br />

Uwe Becker 1<br />

1 Fritz-Haber-Institut der Max-Planck-Gesellschaft, Faradayweg 4-6, 14195 Berlin<br />

Die Photoelektronenemission zweiatomiger homonuklearer Moleküle ist ein Doppelspaltexperiment<br />

<strong>mit</strong> Einzelelektronen [1], das im Gegensatz zum klassischen Doppelspalt<br />

nicht auf der Unschärferelation, sondern auf der Inversionssymmetrie beruht. Ein<br />

weiterer Unterschied besteht im Auftreten der Interferenz, die im klassischen Doppelspaltexperiment<br />

im Ortsraum zutage tritt, im molekularen Doppelspaltexperiment hingegen<br />

experimentell nur im Impulsraum nachgewiesen werden kann. Dadurch treten bei<br />

letzterem Streuungen am Nachbare<strong>mit</strong>ter zutage, die im klassischen Experiment verborgen<br />

bleiben. Diese Streuprozesse eröffnen Einblicke in die Energieabhängigkeit der<br />

Kohärenzphänomene beim Doppelspaltexperiment. Solange die de-Broglie-Wellenlänge<br />

des e<strong>mit</strong>tierten Elektrons größer ist als die Bindungslänge des e<strong>mit</strong>tierenden Moleküls,<br />

überlagern sich alle Teilwellen gestreuter oder nicht gestreuter Elektronen immer nur<br />

von zwei getrennten Emissionszentren. Sie sind also kohärente Überlagerungen von<br />

Elektronenwellen, die von zwei räumlich getrennten Emissionszentren e<strong>mit</strong>tiert werden.<br />

Wenn die de-Broglie-Wellenlänge jedoch kürzer als die Bindungslänge des Moleküls<br />

wird, findet ein Kohärenztransfer-Prozeß statt. Die doppelspaltartige transversale Zwei-<br />

Zentren-Kohärenz weicht einer EXAFS-artigen longitudinalen Ein-Zentren-Kohärenz,<br />

die positions-sensitive Strukturinformationen enthält. Dieser Kohärenztransfer-Prozeß<br />

findet ohne expliziten Symmetriebruch statt; er ist gewissermaßen ein symmetrisierter<br />

Vorläufer eines echten Symmetriebruchs.<br />

Ein echter Symmetriebruch bewirkt nicht nur einen Kohärenztransfer, sondern einen<br />

Kohärenzverlust. Dieser kann entweder durch eine äußere Störung wie Isotopensubstitution<br />

[2] oder aber durch eine innere Störung wie kohärente Anregung von verschiedenen<br />

Symmetriezuständen durch Kurzzeitpulse erzeugt werden. Letzterer Effekt konnte<br />

kürzlich <strong>mit</strong>tels Anregung durch Pulse aus Higher Harmonic Generation (HHG) an<br />

H2 gezeigt werden [3] und soll für Ne-Dimere am Freie-Elektronen-Laser bei DESY<br />

Ultrafast X-ray diffraction experiments at the linear accelerator based<br />

X-ray source SPPS<br />

The development of new X-ray sources like free electron lasers, 4th generation synchrotrons<br />

and laser driven plasmas will provide new opportunities for producing short<br />

pulses with short wavelength radiation. These ultrashort X-ray pulses offer a unique<br />

combination of spatial and temporal resolution and thus make it possible to directly<br />

observe atomic motion, for example during chemical reactions or phase transitions.<br />

Using the Sub-Picosecond Pulse Source in Stanford, USA the collaboration has applied<br />

optical pump X-ray probe techniques to various problems in physics with a time<br />

resolution of 100 fs. SPPS is the first linear accelerator based femtosecond multi keV<br />

X-ray source and stands in the forefront for research, in particular to conduct important<br />

RD work for accelerator concepts, X-ray optics, and experimental techniques for<br />

future X-ray FEL experiments. In this contribution we will give an overview of the<br />

activities at the SPPS.<br />

We will discuss preliminary results of the ionic to neutral phase transition in the<br />

typical mixed stack charge transfer compound TTF-CA. We compare results from the<br />

SPPS and discuss them in the context of the time resolved data from the ESRF, ID09<br />

with 50 ps time resolution [1]. We present results of the non-thermal melting of a semiconductor<br />

after short pulse laser excitation [2] and first measurements of the detection<br />

of optical coherent phonons in laser excited Bismuth [3]. Beyond physics we discuss<br />

the crucial question how to time a linac based source with an optical pump laser [4].<br />

Incomplete wetting or dewetting plays an important role in thin film systems, be it for<br />

the growth of the film, its stability or chemical reactions and phase formation taking<br />

place at the interface. Dewetting usually occurs when the film is in its liquid state or<br />

at least near to its melting point (in case of glasses). Here we report about our recent<br />

observation that dewetting also may occur when a thin metal oxide film (NiO, Fe2O3,<br />

TiO2, some tens of nm thicknes) grown on untreated Si-substrate is bombarded with<br />

swift heavy ions, even when the film is kept at liquid nitrogen temperature. Similar to<br />

what was observed in case of thin molten polymer films [1] we could identify heterogeneous<br />

and homogeneous nucleation taking place at the beginning of the dewetting<br />

process. Dewetting then proceeds by the formation and growth of circular holes with<br />

the removed material piling up in a rim around these holes. By coalescence of the<br />

holes narrow ridges are formed, which finally decay into small droplets because of the<br />

Rayleigh-Plateau instability. Different techniques like SEM, AFM and RBS were used<br />

to analyse the dewetting processes and nucleation mechanisms that occur during the<br />

ion bombardment. We have investigated the basic kinetics involved in these phenomena<br />

by studying the development of the dewetting patterns as a function of different<br />

ion species and energies and the applied fluences as well as their dependence on the<br />

film thicknes.<br />

Amino acid construction consists of a carboxylic acid (-COOH) and an amino (-NH2)<br />

functional group attached to the same tetrahedral carbon atom, the α-carbon. Every<br />

amino acid, with the exception of glycine, comes in two forms, a left-handed (L) and<br />

a right-handed (D) version, which are identical mirror images of each other. However,<br />

protein chains cannot be formed from a mixture of D and L.<br />

We report on high resolution X-ray and neutron scattering diffraction as well as quasielastic<br />

neutron studies on crystalline L- and D-alanine over a wide temperature range.<br />

Our aim is to verify the possibility predicted by the Nobel Laureate A. Salam, that a<br />

phase transition, related to a break of the as Cα-H bond, occurs in alanine. While no<br />

change in the space group symmetry was observed, a negative thermal expansion, by<br />

discrete steps, along the c-axis is observed till the melting point. Additional anomalies<br />

are also noticed in the a and b lattice constants at 170 K. Moreover, the evolution of the<br />

mean-square displacement, obtained from the QENS, data shows a steadily increase on<br />

heating, but near 150 K and again near 200 K a deviation from the expected behavior<br />

is observed. The results suggest the excitation of new degrees of freedom, possibly due<br />

to a progressive conformational change of the NH 3+ group. The ramifications of this<br />

study can be extremely interesting for the understanding of homochirality as well as a<br />

breakthrough in molecular mapping via non-traditional sources of information.

A comparison with several molecular mechanics force fields widely used in molecular<br />

dynamics simulations of proteins, nucleic acids, and small molecules reveals systematic<br />

deviations from electronic structure calculations and protein structure statistics. These<br />

results point to the importance of understanding the anharmonic mode coupling of the<br />

amide group, present in the hydrogen bonds found in protein side chains and main<br />

chains. It is a non-trivial problem to choose a simplistic hydrogen bonded system<br />

that accurately mimics hydrogen bonds found in proteins. One of the long-standing<br />

building block models of the repeated peptide linkage of polypeptides and proteins is Nmethylacetamide,(CH3CONHCH3,<br />

hereafter NMA), a single amide containing methyl<br />

groups at both extre<strong>mit</strong>ies.<br />

NMA, which is highly hygroscopic and melts just above room temperature (301 K),<br />

undergoes a structural phase transition around room temperature (T ′<br />

=274 K), and<br />

recent structural results support the idea of a glassy-type disorder below T ′<br />

, as well as<br />

the occurrence of a second phase in the vicinity of 230-240 K. From 13 C NMR studies,<br />

down to 200 K, the coexistence of typical broad lines with very narrow bands indicates<br />

that dynamic disorder is still observed well below the structural transition.<br />

In order to get further information on the relationship between local dynamics and<br />

the molecular structure of NMA, new QENS measurements were performed using FO-<br />

CUS at PSI and IN10 at the ILL. Also, neutron diffraction measurements on the fully<br />

deutereted NMA, using the Fine Resolution Powder Diffractometer E9 at HMI and<br />

the High Resolution Powder Diffractomer (HRPD) at ISIS, were also carried out. Here<br />

we find that systematic deviation from the room temperature structure in the model<br />

system NMA influences the local dynamics, giving rise to a glass-type structure.

Sodium cobalt oxyhydrate NaxCoO2·yH2O shows superconductivity with Tc=5 K for<br />

x=0.35 and y=1/3. In the same way that the two-dimensional nature of the copper<br />

oxide layers is thought to be important in this class of superconductors, the large<br />

separation of the cobalt oxide layers seems to be crucial in the superconducting behavior<br />

of NaxCoO2·yH2O. Unlike the square lattice found in cuprates, cobalt oxide forms a<br />

triangular lattice. In order to understand the mechanisms of how the dynamics of the<br />

H-bond network is modified in the crystalline lattice as well as to get insight on the<br />

role of water in this new class of compounds a series of incoherent neutron scattering<br />

experiments were performed in Na0.7CoO2 and NaxCoO2·yH2O (x∼0.28, y∼1.3).<br />

Using quasi-elastic neutron scattering (QENS) we were able to distinguish the water<br />

chemically bound into the sodium cobalt oxyhydrate structure during the hydration<br />

process, from the physically bound or “glassy water”. Physically bound water is defined<br />

as the water that can hydrogen bond less strongly in the hydration shells around the<br />

Na ions. At room temperature the elastic incoherent structure factor (EISF), extracted<br />

from the neutron time-of-flight data, rules out single rotational-jump models, as well<br />

as isotropic rotational motions for the physically bound water molecule.<br />

Besides, high resolution QENS experiments, carried out on Na0.28CoO2·1.3H2O, using<br />

the high resolution neutron spectrometer IRIS at ISIS, show that at higher temperatures<br />

the water dynamics is well described by the random jump diffusion model with<br />

a mean residence time of 22 ps. Furthermore we show that the sodium ions have<br />

no influence on the rotational dynamics of the bulk-water molecules, however they<br />

introduce the disorder necessary to prevent total crystallization of the water below<br />

240 K. This is reflected by the existence of a liquid-liquid transition involving water in<br />

NaxCoO2·yH2O.

Mayenit (Ca12Al14O33) ist ein schneller Sauerstoffionenleiter, der aus einem Calciumaluminat-Gerüst<br />

besteht, in das 32 der 33 Sauerstoffionen fest eingebunden sind. Das<br />

33. Sauerstoffion ist statistisch über Käfige in der Struktur verteilt und kann sich bei<br />

Temperaturen um 1000 ◦ C leicht durch das Kristallgitter bewegen. Es kann gegen andere<br />

Ionen, u.a. Stickstoff ausgetauscht werden und eröffnet da<strong>mit</strong> neue Möglichkeiten<br />

zur Herstellung eines reinen Stickstoffionenleiters. Die Synthese von Ca12Al14O33 gelingt<br />

durch Festkörperreaktion aus Al2O3 und CaCO3, wobei mehrmaliges Aufheizen<br />

auf etwa 1300 ◦ C <strong>mit</strong> anschließendem Vermahlen zur Bildung praktisch phasenreiner<br />

Proben nötig ist. Die Darstellung einer stickstoffhaltigen Phase ist durch Ammonolyse<br />

möglich. Die hier untersuchte Probe enthält so viel Stickstoff, wie es dem formalen<br />

Austausch des 33. O durch 2/3 N entspricht (1 O 2− → 2/3 N 3− ).<br />

Am Pulverdiffraktometer SPODI (FRM2, Garching) wurden Neutronenbeugungsuntersuchungen<br />

am O-Mayenit und N-Mayenit bei Raumtemperatur, sowie temperaturabhängige<br />

Messungen am O-Mayenit bis 1200 ◦ C durchgeführt. Die freien“ Anionen<br />

”<br />

(O, N) konnten eindeutig über Differenz-Fourier Methoden lokalisiert werden. Während<br />

im Falle des O-Mayenits die auf Grund des Ladungsausgleichs erwartete Besetzung gefunden<br />

wurde, zeigt sich beim N-Mayenit eine deutliche Überbesetzung, deren Ursache<br />

noch nicht geklärt ist. Ein Hinweis auf den Einbau von N in das Gerüst kann aus den<br />

Daten nicht erhalten werden. Bei hohen Temperaturen nimmt in der reinen Sauerstoffprobe<br />

die scheinbare Besetzung des Zwischengitter-O ab, während die atomaren<br />

Verschiebungsparameter stark ansteigen. Dies läßt sich <strong>mit</strong> signifikanten anharmonischen<br />

Beiträgen zum Debye-Waller Faktor erklären und da<strong>mit</strong> verfeinern. Über eine<br />

Analyse der daraus gewonnenen Aufenthaltswahrscheinlichkeiten lassen sich die Diffusionspfade<br />

und die effektiven Einteilchen-Potentiale bestimmen.<br />

Die Arbeiten werden im Rahmen des SPP 1136 durch die DFG (BO 1199/2-3, LE<br />

Attosekunden-Verschränkung: Ein neuer Quanteneffekt der Neutronenstreuung<br />

Compton-Streuexperimente <strong>mit</strong> schnellen (sog. epithermischen) Neutronen an Protonen<br />

verschiedener flüssiger und fester Systeme haben kürzlich neue Einsichten in die<br />

Dynamik kondensierter Materie ermöglicht: Bisher unbekannte Prozesse werden sichtbar,<br />

die in wenigen hundert Attosekunden (as) ablaufen [1,2]. Auf dieser ultrakurzen<br />

Zeitskala gehen die Protonen in der Materie eine komplexe quantenmechanische Verschränkung<br />

<strong>mit</strong> den ihnen benachbarten Elektronen ein. Als Folge davon scheinen diese<br />

Protonen beim Streuprozess teilweise zu ” verschwinden“: Wasser zum Beispiel erscheint<br />

als H1,5O anstatt H2O [1]. Diese Experimente wurden an der gepulsten Spallationsquelle<br />

ISIS (Spektrometer Vesuvio, Rutherford Appleton Laboratory) durchgeführt. Dieser<br />

überraschende Effekt wurde auch <strong>mit</strong> Hilfe einer unabhängigen experimentellen Methode<br />

nachgewiesen, der Elektron-Proton Compton-Streuung [2]. Dadurch wurde auch gezeigt,<br />

dass dieser Effekt unabhängig von der zugrunde liegenden fundamentalen Wechselwirkung<br />

(starke bzw. elektromagnetische) ist [3], und so<strong>mit</strong> ein Verschränkungseffekt<br />

sein kann, wie theoretisch vorhergesagt.<br />

Der genannte Effekt steht im Widerspruch zur konventionellen Theorie der Neutronenstreuung,<br />

in der Verschränkung und Dekohärenz keine Rolle spielen [1,2]. Deshalb<br />

wurde er seit seiner Entdeckung von mehreren Seiten stark angegriffen. Nun gelang<br />

es Bruno Dorner (ILL, Grenoble) <strong>mit</strong> einer qualitativ neuen Auswertungsmethode [4],<br />

bisherige, am Metallhydrid NbH0.8 bei T = 293 K gewonnene Ergebnisse eindrucksvoll<br />

zu bestätigen; für eine Übersicht s. [4b]. Es ist wichtig zu bemerken, dass Dorners<br />

Methode nur die o.g. Peak-Separation voraussetzt, aber von jeglicher Annahme über<br />

(a) die genaue Form der apparativen Auflösungsfunktion und (b) die spezifische Form<br />

eines Peaks völlig frei ist − es handelt sich hier um eine modell-freie Methode“ [4].<br />

”<br />

Eine weitere, unabhängige Bestätigung des Effektes gelang Senesi et al. [5] <strong>mit</strong> Hilfe<br />

der sog. exakten“ Methode zur Analyse der am Vesuvio gewonnenen Flugzeitdaten.<br />

”<br />

Dieser as-Effekt [1,2] dürfte weitreichende Bedeutung auf ganz verschiedene Gebiete<br />

haben, wie z.B. der Neutronenphysik, Streuung an offenen Quantensystemen, kondensierte<br />

Materie, Molekülphysik und Dynamik chemischer Reaktionen.<br />

Fluorescence spectroscopy experiments on simple molecules after excitation by monochromatized<br />

synchrotron radiation were mainly focused on outer-shell excitations of molecules<br />

(e.g. [1-3]), whereas the decay of inner shell excitations was investigated only scarcely<br />

(see e.g. [4]). The excitation of an inner shell electron in a molecule induces very<br />

complex relaxation processes, which are governed by the competition between autoionization<br />

and fragmentation of the molecule. In the present work we investigated aspects<br />

of the decay of the 1s −1 π ∗ resonances of NO by fluorescence spectroscopy, measuring<br />

dispersed VUV-fluorescence intensities (118 nm≤ λfl ≤ 143 nm) to investigate the<br />

influence of liftime vibrational interference (LVI).<br />

In recent studies we successfully investigated the C(v ′ ) → X(v ′′ ) fluorescence in the<br />

N +<br />

2 ion excited via the 1s−1π ∗ resonance [5-6]. Due to the vibrational spacing of the<br />

N ∗ 2 state of about 230 meV, which is about twice as large than its natural linewidth the<br />

LVI between the excitation pathways via different 1s −1 π ∗ (vr) vibrational levels was<br />

found to be not of significance. In contrast the vibrational spacing of 195 meV of the<br />

N ∗ O state is only about 1.5 times larger than its natural width and in the case of the<br />

NO ∗ the vibrational spacing is already smaller than the natural width. For the N ∗ O<br />

state LVI effects has been observed by [7] and it is expected that a very pronounced<br />

vibrational interference will be investigated in the case of the NO ∗ de-excitation.<br />

Ionic liquids (IL), i.e. ionic melts with melting points below 373 K, have attracted<br />

considerable attention in recent years as solvents for a variety of applications including<br />

electrodeposition, batteries, catalysis, separations and organic synthesis [1,2].<br />

A quasielastic neutron scattering study has been performed by Triolo et al. [3] in collaboration<br />

with F. Juranyi on [bmim][PF6]. Recently, we have performed an experiment<br />

on [N-butyl-N-methyl-pyrrolidinium] bis-(trifluoromethylsulfonyl) imide ([BMPyrr] Tf2N).<br />

The typical spectra can be described as a superposition of an elastic component, a comparatively<br />

narrow and a very broad Lorentzian. The Q-dependence of their line widths<br />

and of the elastic incoherent structure factor (EISF), i.e. the ratio elastic intensity /<br />

total intensity indicate localized side chain motion, see Fig. 1.<br />

Investigations on fully protonated [N-alkyl-N-methyl-pyrrolidinium] Tf2N (here, alkyl<br />

means ethyl, butyl, octyl, etc.) samples using our cold neutron time-of-flight spectrometer<br />

FOCUS are in progress now.<br />

The transition from the liquid to the amorphous state is still a matter of controversial<br />

debate. Many different experimental methods and numerical simulations have been<br />

applied to shine light onto this problem. We used synchrotron radiation to study<br />

both structure and dynamics of amorphous systems in particular in the vicinity of the<br />

glass-liquid-transition.<br />

The contribution will discuss the results of our investigation on model systems ranging<br />

from amorphous metals to simple organic glass-formers. We investigated the structure<br />

of amorphous systems using a combination of techniques including reverse Monte-<br />

Carlo methods, slow relaxations near the calorimetric glass transition by fast diffraction<br />

experiments and fast dynamics near the mode-coupling glass transition temperature<br />

by nuclear resonant scattering techniques. Also effects of extreme conditions like high<br />

pressure and geometrical confinement will be discussed. Moreover new ideas on the<br />

conditions for glass formation in metallic systems will be presented.

Recently the high values of ionic conductivity and ionic thermoelectromotive force<br />

[1] renovate the practical interest for the ternary superionic (SI) compounds AgCuSe<br />

and AgCuS. In order to explain correlations between crystal structure and high-ionic<br />

conductivity, the time-average structure of AgCuSe and AgCuS was investigated by<br />

synchrotron (B2, HASYLAB/DESY) and neutron elastic coherent scattering (SPODI,<br />

FRM-II) in a wide temperature range.<br />

The model with cations disordered between tetrahedral (8c) and octahedral (32f) sites<br />

yields a temperature dependence for the parameters of the average structure without<br />

any anomalies. Within this model, it is likely that cations jump in skewed <br />

directions between nearest-neighbour tetrahedral sites via the peripheries of the octahedral<br />

cavities. Note that diffraction results on a number of SI compounds [2] imply<br />

that ionic conductivity can be sensitive to details of the cation redistribution between<br />

available interstitial sites vs. temperature. Taking this into account, we can propose<br />

a correlation between the results of the electrochemical measurements [1], which revealed<br />

only a relatively modest increase in ionic conductivity with temperature within<br />

SI-AgCuSe, and our diffraction results, which show no pronounced cation redistribution.<br />

This gives strong support for the validity of the model [3]. Nevertheless, due to<br />

the li<strong>mit</strong>ed number of observed Bragg reflections from SI AgCuSe and AgCuS the correlations<br />

between parameters are very strong. Therefore, a detailed analysis of diffuse<br />

scattering is mandatory. Hence, the results on the average structure are a base for<br />

further reverse Monte Carlo (RMC) modelling. This modelling will be done with the<br />

RMCpow software [4], which is a development of the RMC method intended specially<br />

for powdered crystalline materials [5]. These investigations are now in progress.<br />

In complex systems, composed from many atomic units, it is of equal importance to<br />

determine the time scales of dynamic processes and to have control at which atomic<br />

site a dynamic process was initiated. Using third generation synchrotron radiation<br />

facilities, resonant X-ray spectroscopy allows to create atomically localized excited<br />

states and to monitor their dynamics in comparison to the ultra fast time scale of the<br />

transient core-hole resonance in autoionization or resonant inelastic X-ray scattering.<br />

With this core-hole-clock method, charge transfer between adsorbed atoms and the<br />

substrate has been investigated. Monitoring Coster-Kronig decay channels, charge<br />

transfer dynamics of only 320±90 attoseconds could be determined for Sulphur adsorbed<br />

on the Ru(0001) surface extending the core-hole-clock method into the range of<br />

attoseconds. The influence of orbital overlap and the surface electronic structure of the<br />

substrate has also been studied and fundamental aspects of autoionization and the electron<br />

localization in matter have been performed. Due to the symmetry selection rules<br />

of resonant inelastic X-ray scattering, ultra fast atomic motion can be investigated,<br />

which changes the molecular symmetry during the transient core-excited state.

The physical properties of crystals such as dielectric polarization and piezoelectricity<br />

are well studied on macroscopic level. They are described by the tensors of dielectric<br />

susceptibilities and piezoelectric constants. In most cases their atomistic origin<br />

is not clear. The evaluation of the structural origin of these phenomena requires insitu<br />

measurement of the microscopic structural response under influence of an external<br />

perturbation. One possible experiment of this type is to monitor the change of X-ray<br />

diffraction intensities by a crystal under a permanent external electric field. Because<br />

the effect is small (∆I/I

Microheterogeneous atomic structure of liquid Cu-Sn alloys<br />

In the solid state, Cu-Sn alloys exhibit a number of intermetallic phases. Structuresensitive<br />

properties such as the dynamic viscosity and the electrical conductivity show<br />

a non-monotonous composition dependence with maxima at the compound’s composition.<br />

Assuming that the interactions between the atoms in these alloys are basically<br />

unchanged when heating to the liquid state, on can expect signs of cluster formation<br />

similar to the corresponding intermetallic phases in the liquid state. Thus, a detailed<br />

study on the structure of liquid Cu-Sn alloys over the entire concentration range is<br />

presented in this work.<br />

The samples under investigation have been prepared from granules of the pure elements<br />

Cu and Sn (purity 99.999 %). The X-ray diffraction experiments have been performed<br />

using a high-temperature θ-θ-Diffractometer at the TU Chemnitz as well as at the<br />

BW5 experimental station [1] at HASYLAB at DESY, Hamburg. Neutron diffraction<br />

has been done at the SLAD diffractometer [2] at the Neutron Research Laboratory<br />

NFL Studsvik, Sweden.<br />

The course of the analysis of the diffraction data followed two major techniques: (i) the<br />

coherently scattered X-ray intensities for numerous samples over the whole composition<br />

range were evaluated with the model of micro-inhomogeneous structure as proposed by<br />

Il’inskii and co-workers [3]; (ii) samples with selected compositions were investigated<br />

by means of X-ray and neutron scattering at a temperature near the liquidus line.<br />

The results of these scattering experiments have been used to derive partial correlation<br />

functions by using the reverse Monte Carlo (RMC) method [4]. Partial co-ordination<br />

numbers as well as short-range ordering parameters have been calculated.<br />

Using the example of the Cu6Sn5 alloy it was shown by comparison with partial structure<br />

factors determined from neutron scattering using isotopic substitution [5] that<br />

simultaneous RMC-modelling of two total structure factors obtained from X-ray and<br />

neutrondiffraction yield reliable pair correlation functions. Both, the evaluation following<br />

Il’inskii’s model as well as the RMC modelling suggest a heterogeneous structure<br />

and confirm the existence of clusters of the Cu3Sn-stoichiometry.<br />

Rare-earth site distribution in R(PO3)3 (R=La, Nd, Er, Yb) glasses by<br />

Reverse Monte Carlo simulations<br />

Uwe Hoppe 1<br />

(R2O3)x(P2O5)1−x glasses with x=0.25 possess comparably great fractions of rareearth<br />

ions R 3+ . Determination of their mutual order is important to understand special<br />

glass properties and is also a challenging work because the relevant distances are already<br />

outside of the short-range order. Results of several approaches based on neutron<br />

diffraction are presented in the literature. On the other hand, the R-R correlations<br />

possess most weight in x-ray scattering data but extraction of the desired information<br />

is difficult. The approach used is a combination of total x-ray and neutron diffraction<br />

data by means of the Reverse Monte Carlo (RMC) method. Results of glasses with<br />

four different R 3+ ions are presented where effects of the decrease of the ionic radius<br />

in the order La, Nd, Er, and Yb become visible.<br />

The RMC method generates three-dimensional atomic configurations which reflect<br />

main features of the short-range order of the metaphosphate glasses due to use of<br />

reasonable constraints in addition to the total x-ray and neutron structure factors.<br />

Twofold corner-connected PO4 tetrahedra forming chain and cyclic structures surround<br />

the R 3+ sites. The terminal oxygen corners of the PO4 tetrahedra coordinate the rareearth<br />

ions. The main results for further analysis are the R-R partial structure factors<br />

and pair distribution functions. The assumption of a random packing of R-centered<br />

spheres with minimum separation of 0.63 nm reproduces the first sharp diffraction<br />

peak. But for reproducing the detailed features of the R-R pair distributions the<br />

description of the medium-range order of the R sites needs a more specific model.<br />

Starting form the structure of the monoclinic crystal Yb(PO3)3 a hexagonal order of<br />

R sites is suggested (c/a=0.87). This model yields broad R-R first-neighbour peaks (8<br />

neighbours) and the second-neighbour peak lies in the right position (12 neighbours).<br />

In addition to this model some short R-R distances (0.45 nm) occur. This peak reflects<br />

R sites which share terminal oxygen neighbours. This effect is very small for glasses<br />

with R=Yb but it increase with increasing radii of the rare-earth ions. The number of<br />

neighbours correlates excellently with the R-O coordination numbers and the numbers<br />

of the terminal oxygens which is available for coordination of an R site.

Zinc Phthalocyanine (ZnPc) has been identified as an excellent candidate, because of<br />

its flexibility in varying electrical and optical behaviour and its own benefit as an organic<br />

semiconductors. It is known that the fashion of ZnPc molecular stacking, affects<br />

its electrical and photoconductivity, which depends on the degree of π-π interaction between<br />

the adjacent molecules. Being planar and exhibiting structural self organisation,<br />

the molecular orientation depends mainly on the growth mode of the first few layers,<br />

which in turn depends on the inter molecular interaction and on molecule-substrate<br />

interaction.<br />

Thin films of ZnPc are prepared by Organic Molecular Beam Deposition (OMBD) in<br />

ultra high vacuum condition on hydrogen passivated and bare silicon (111) oriented<br />

substrates. Spectroscopic ellipsometry and transmission measurements are carried out<br />

using Variable Angle Spectroscopic Ellipsometer (VASE) in the NIR-Vis-UV range<br />

from 0.75 eV to 5 eV. For the optically anisotropic ZnPc films, the complex dielectric<br />

function, film thicknesses and the surface roughness were determined. The average<br />

molecular tilt angle of the ZnPc with respect to the substrate is calculated. The<br />

results are confirmed with infrared reflection measurements.<br />

Both the dielectric function as well as the tilt angle of the ZnPc molecule is found to<br />

be strongly dependent on the substrate used. The kind of orientation adopted by the<br />

first few layers is found to be preserved in thicker films.

The atomic structure of amorphous Ge15Te85 has been studied by X-ray and neutron<br />

diffraction and X-ray absorption spectroscopy at the Ge K-edge.<br />

Neutron diffraction experiments were carried out with the liquid and amorphous materials<br />

diffractometer SLAD at NFL, Studsvik. The incident wavelength of neutrons<br />

was 1.11 ˚A. The scattered intensity was measured between 0.4 ˚A −1 and 10.4 ˚A −1 .<br />

X-ray diffraction experiments were carried out at the BW5 experimental station at<br />

HASYLAB, Hamburg. The energy of the radiation was 125 keV (0.101 ˚A). Scattered<br />

intensities were measured between 0.5 ˚A −1 and 20 ˚A −1 .<br />

EXAFS measurements at the Ge K-edge (11103 eV) were carried out at the beam line<br />

A1 of HASYLAB in transmission mode using a Si (111) double-crystal monochromator.<br />

The ionization chambers were filled with N2-Ar mixture. The pressure inside the<br />

sample chamber was of the order of 10 −2 mbar.<br />

The diffraction measurements were modelled simultaneously with EXAFS data by<br />

the reverse Monte Carlo (RMC) simulation technique. Combination of the three independent<br />

measurements allowed separation of the partial pair correlation functions<br />

gGeT e(r) and gT eT e(r) and estimation of the corresponding coordination numbers.<br />

The mean Ge-Te and Te-Te distance obtained in the present study are rGeT e = 2.60 ˚A<br />

and rT eT e = 2.79 ˚A, and the coordination numbers: NT eT e = 1.64 and NGeT e = 3.53. It<br />

is assumed that the structure of amorphous Ge15Te85 consists of GeTe3/2 and GeTe4/2<br />

units bridged through the net of Te atoms.

ZrO2, dotiert <strong>mit</strong> Sc2O3, gehört zu den Materialien <strong>mit</strong> den höchsten Sauerstoffionenleitfähigkeiten.<br />

In Abhängigkeit vom Dotiergehalt (Sc/N) bilden sich Strukturen <strong>mit</strong><br />

geordneten Leerstellenverteilungen. Diese rhomboedrischen Überstrukturen lassen sich<br />

von der bei hohen Temperaturen realisierten Fluoritphase (Fm3m) ableiten, die eine<br />

die Ordnungsprinzipien der Überstrukturen und den Einfluss der Co-Dotierung <strong>mit</strong><br />

Stickstoff zu verstehen, sowie die Anionendiffusion zu charakterisieren.<br />

Während kubisch-stabilisierte ZrO2-Phasen (z.B. <strong>mit</strong> Y2O3) eine charakteristische<br />

wird diese bei Zr0.82Sc0.18O1.91 erst bei hohen Temperaturen nach dem Übergang in<br />

Zur Bestimmung der Überstrukturen wurden verschiedene Proben <strong>mit</strong> Synchrotron-<br />

die ternäre Probe (Zr-Sc-O) <strong>mit</strong> ca. 10mol% Sc2O3 die β-Phase (R-3) zeigt [1], führt die<br />

Co-Dotierung <strong>mit</strong> Stickstoff zu einer anderen Überstruktur. In der Literatur wird die<br />

Überstruktur im System Zr-Mg-O-N <strong>mit</strong> der β’-Phase beschrieben [2], die ein ähnliches<br />

Reflexmuster wie Zr-Sc-O-N zeigt. Zusätzliche Reflexe deuten eventuell auf eine andere<br />

Überstruktur oder vielfache Zwillinge hin. Neutronenpulvermessungen am Gerät SPO-<br />

DI/FRM2 konnten hingegen bei RT <strong>mit</strong> der β’-Phase verfeinert werden. Im Gegensatz<br />

zum System Mg-Zr-O-N zeigt sich hier keine N/O-Ordnung.<br />

Na2O - Fe2O3 - SiO2 glasses: Inhomogeneous distribution of Fe in channels<br />

We report on the investigation of ternary sodium iron-silicate glasses by means of neutron<br />

spectroscopy and diffraction. Being of outstanding importance for geosciences,<br />

iron bearing silicate glasses and melts show a number of unique features [1]. Adding<br />

Fe2O3 to a binary alkali silicate melt leads to an increase in melt viscosity. This increase<br />

depends not only on the amount of Fe2O3, but also on the conditions of synthesis.<br />

For instance, under normal conditions of synthesis Fe is predominantly built into the<br />

structure as Fe 3+ . Depending on melt composition, temperature, and atmosphere Fe<br />

can also exist in the reduced form Fe 2+ .<br />

We demonstrate that a partial Fe-Fe structure factor can be directly obtained in these<br />

multicomponent system. Neutrons scattered on Fe 3+ couple to its unpaired electron<br />

spin moment. Quasielastic neutron scattering allows to separate nuclear from magnetic<br />

scattering contributions in sodium iron silicates. The results were corroborated by<br />

experiments using polarization analysis. The partial Fe-Fe structure factor determined<br />

by means of magnetic scattering features a correlation peak around 0.9 ˚A −1 . A<br />

correlation peak in the nuclear elastic structure factor observed at the same position<br />

in binary alkali silicate melts was shown to reflect a network of percolation channels<br />

for fast alkali ion diffusion [2]. The addition of a second network forming component,<br />

Al2O3, leads to a drastic increase in viscosity and a disruption of the channel structure.<br />

This is evidenced by vanishing of this correlation peak in the nuclear elastic structure<br />

factor [3]. Considering the total nuclear structure factor consisting of ten different<br />

partial structure factors the position of Al with respect to the other components cannot<br />

be unambiguously determined. In the sodium iron-silicates the position of the correlation<br />

peak is Fe concentration independent. However, the peak height scales with the<br />

total Fe3+ content. The experiments indicate an inhomogeneous distribution of Fe.<br />

They further suggest that the Fe atoms are located on Na equivalent positions rather<br />

than on those equivalent to Si.<br />

We present a structural study of three different transition metal oxide systems by<br />

means of neutron and single crystal X-ray diffraction. We found charge ordering in<br />

the Y1−xCaxTiO3 titanate system and in the K2V8O16 hollandite system and confirm<br />

the charge order in the LiV2O5 vanadate to persist to low temperatures. Having<br />

one electron in the 3d shell, the rare earth titanates RTiO3 represent an interesting<br />

system to study the complex interplay of magnetic and structural degrees of freedom.<br />

In addition we have analysed the metal-insulator (MI) transitions driven by hole doping<br />

when trivalent R-ions get replaced by divalent earth-alkaline ions. Upon cooling<br />

Ca-doped YTiO3 system exhibits a structural first-order phase transition accompanied<br />

by cossover phenomena in structural and magnetic properties. In contrast to most<br />

transtion metal oxides, we find the metallic phase to be stabilized at low temperature.<br />

For Ca-concentrations around 35-50 % we find first evidence for static charge ordering<br />

in the insulating phases. The vanadate family of oxides AV2O5 shows a variety of lowdimensional<br />

phenomena originating from their peculiar crystal structures. These transition<br />

metal oxides are quasi two dimensional (2D) materials with layers formed by VO5<br />

square pyramids while the A ions are situated between the layers as intercalants and<br />

act as electron donors. For A=Li the vanadium ions are nominally in a mixed-valence<br />

state with an average valency of +4.5. Thus, vanadium 4+ zigzag chains are separated<br />

by non-magnetic 5+ zigzag chains turning this system quasi onedimensional (1D). We<br />

were able to confirm the persistence of charge ordering of LiV2O5 down to 2 K by single<br />

crystal neutron diffraction. The hollandite K2V8O16 room-temperature structure is<br />

tetragonal and consists of octahedral VO6 double-chains running along the c-direction.<br />

The potassium ions align in the free space between these vanadium oxide double-chains<br />

and form chains in c-direction parallel to the VO6 double-chains. The vanadium ions<br />

in this compound possess an average valency of 3.75+. K2V8O16 exhibits a metalinsulator<br />

(MI) transition at 175 K. Conco<strong>mit</strong>antly with the MI-transition there is a<br />

phase transition from the tetragonal to a monoclinic structure. We performed single<br />

crystal X-ray diffraction measurements and were able to solve the complex, distorted<br />

structure below 175 K for the first time. It turned out that there is a dimerization of<br />

the vanadium ions in one of the two vanadium chains forming the VO6 double-chain<br />

and a zig-zag-chain formation in the neighbouring vanadium chain. Furthermore, the<br />

analyses of the bond distances in terms of bond-valence sums point to charge ordering<br />

in this complex distorted structure.

We employ energy-dispersive as well as angle-dispersive X-ray reflectivity to study<br />

the growth and structure of the organic semiconductors rubrene and pentacene in in<br />

situ and real time. Following the surface morphology of rubrene films during organic<br />

molecular beam deposition, we find relatively smooth films (surface roughness below<br />

∼15 ˚A for thicknesses up to at least 600 ˚A) and a significant delay before the onset<br />

of roughening. This anomalous roughening in the beginning and crossover to normal<br />

roughening later during growth may be related to conformational changes of rubrene<br />

in the early stages of growth. Studying pentacene in real-time during growth with<br />

energy-dispersive reflectometry we can follow the growth oscillations for a wide range<br />

in q-space including the anti-Bragg point. These growth oscillations give a detailed<br />

picture of the crossover from layer-by-layer growth for the first pentacene monolayers<br />

to roughening for thicker films. Finally, we discuss the chances and li<strong>mit</strong>ations of energy<br />

dispersive as compared to conventional angle-dispersive measurements [1].<br />

Das Verständnis dynamischer Eigenschaften von Materialien <strong>mit</strong> komplexem strukturellen<br />

Aufbau stellt eine grosse Herausforderung für experimentelle Untersuchungen<br />

dar. Als Beispiele für strukturell–komplexe Materialien seien hier amorphe Werkstoffe,<br />

Zeolite, Clatrate, Hydrat–Clatrate und gefüllte Skutterudite genannt [1,2,3].<br />

Das hohe Interesse, die dynamischen Charakteristika dieser Materialien zu verstehen,<br />

gründet sich auf deren anwendungsbezogene Einsatzbereiche. So finden diese Materialien<br />

ihre Anwendung als Isolator–, Katalysator–, Filter–, Energiespeicher– oder<br />

Thermoelektrische–Werkstoffe. Da<strong>mit</strong> spielen thermische Eigenschaften und folglich<br />

die mikroskopische Dynamik eine sehr wichtige Rolle für deren Anwendung und Anwendbarkeit.<br />

Die Schwierigkeit, detailierte Erkenntnisse über deren mikroskopische Dynamik zu gewinnen,<br />

hat mannigfaltige Gründe. So sind die oben aufgeführten Systeme in der Regel<br />

nicht als Einkristalle herstellbar, wo<strong>mit</strong> eine umfassende experimentelle Untersuchung<br />

im Sinne von Gitterdynamik im vierdimensionalem � Q–ω Phasenraum unterbunden<br />

wird. Im Falle der offenen Netzwerk–Systeme sind die GastWirt Wechselwirkungen sehr<br />

komplex und theoretisch weder vollständig verstanden noch einheitlich beschreibbar.<br />

In einigen Fällen verhindert die Größe der offenen Netzwerke selbst eine umfassende<br />

theoretische Beschreibung der Dynamik des Gitters.<br />

Wir werden an den Beispielen von amorphem Eis, Hydrat-Clatraten und gefüllten<br />

Skutteruditen zeigen, dass die Nutzung von inelastischen Streuexperimenten <strong>mit</strong> Neutronen<br />

und Synchrotronstrahlung einen entscheidenden Schritt zum Verständnis der<br />

Dynamik dieser Systeme darstellt. Wir werden ferner diskutieren, dass die Anwendung<br />

beider Sonden, Neutronen und Synchrotronstrahlung, eine Notwendigkeit ist, um eine<br />

detailgetreue Beschreibung der mikroskopischen Dynamik zu erhalten. Dies ist durch<br />

die Komplimentarität beider Sonden in Bezug auf die Ausleuchtung des Q–ω Phasenraums<br />

und die Energieauflösung zu erklären.<br />

Anomalous neutron Compton scattering: convolution approximation vs.<br />

model-free approach<br />

A shortfall of the scattering intensity from protons has been observed in liquids (water,<br />

benzene, etc.) and solids (metal hydrogen systems, organic polymers, etc) using<br />

neutron Compton scattering (NCS). However, the conventional NCS data reduction<br />

scheme [1], used to obtain the scattering intensities, based on the convolution approximation<br />

(CA) of the nuclear momentum distribution with the instrument resolution<br />

function was severely criticized. It was claimed that it is the way the energy resolution<br />

function is incorporated in the data reduction scheme that leads to an underestimation<br />

of the scattering intensity. In the present work the CA approximation is compared to a<br />

newly proposed model-free approach that is independent of the form of the momentum<br />

distribution and the resolution function [2 - 4]. The new data reduction scheme is<br />

shown to lead to the same results as for the experimental data published earlier and<br />

treated with the CA approximation thus refuting the criticisms claiming the way the<br />

data reduction is performed responsible for the effect under consideration.<br />

SAXS-studies on structure function relationships of thiamine diphosphatedependent<br />

A dozen of thiamine diphosphate-dependent enzymes have been investigated by means<br />

of small-angle X-ray solution scattering with synchrotron radiation. As a result of this<br />

it became obvious that SAXS is the method of choice to determine the oligomer state<br />

of enzymes in aqueous solutions. Furthermore it was possible to study the influence of<br />

a number of specific ligands, like substrates, activators, inhibitors, cofactors, and pH<br />

on the oligomerisation state and stability of enzymes in solution. Recently, the availability<br />

of corresponding programs allows the calculation of three-dimensional structure<br />

models of the enzymes directly from experimental scattering patterns ab initio without<br />

any further prerequisites. Comparison of these models to crystal structure models<br />

demonstrated the general reliability of these procedures. Furthermore it is possible<br />

to compare both kinds of structure models and to draw conclusions on the spatial<br />

arrangement of enzymes in aqueous solutions. Together with kinetic studies and protein<br />

crystal structure analysis, the SAXS is a powerful method to elucidate structure<br />

function relationships of enzymes.

Excited aromatic molecules like pyrene, perylene and pentacene can relax to a short<br />

lived (≈100 ps) excited dimer state (excimer) that decays radiatively. Although this<br />

state is well characterised by time resolved optical spectroscopy the structural change<br />

upon dimerization remains unknown. We employ pump laser probe X-ray experiments<br />

in order to investigate structural changes during excimer evolution. X-ray pulses are<br />

either obtained from Kα secondary radiation from a plasma source or as synchrotron radiation<br />

from individual electron bunches at the ESRF. Using grazing incidence diffraction<br />

on polycrystalline thin films we can achieve a high excitation density within the<br />

probed volume and thus enhance the scattering signal. We have demonstrated a preferential<br />

uniaxial alignment of crystallites along the substrate surface, resembling a<br />

2D-powder, as well as bi-axial alignment on substrates with friction deposited PTFE<br />

alignment layers. This enables us to take advantage of the grazing incidence scattering<br />

geometry to enhance the scattering signal. Results for this first time-resolved structural<br />

observations of transient excimers are reported.

Linear instabilities in early transition metal oxide structures<br />

Early transition metals (e.g. M = Ti, V, Nb, Ta) frequently exhibit out-of-center distortions<br />

within the octahedral coordination environment of common oxide structures.<br />

Given an appropriate structural topology of trans-corner connected octahedra, the<br />

distortions may align to form chains of alternating short and long metal-oxygen bonds<br />

at low temperatures. Depending on symmetry, the formation of such chains may<br />

give rise to ferroelectric, antiferroelectric or antipolar ground states. Compounds of<br />

this type often show characteristic diffuse scattering extending along reciprocal space<br />

planes upon transformation to their high temperature paraphase. In the perovskites<br />

BaTiO3 and KNbO3 such effects have been related to dynamic long range correlations<br />

of Ti-displacements parallel to 〈100〉 of the cubic paraphase by first principle computational<br />

methods [1]. Synchrotron radiation provides the means to efficiently study the<br />

weak scattering effects associated with these linear displacement correlations as well as<br />

their temperature dependence. Several examples of planar diffuse scattering effects in<br />

structure types containing trans-corner connected chains of MO6-octahedra are being<br />

presented. The effects are discussed in relation to structural phase transitions occuring<br />

in these oxide compounds.<br />

Au, Xe and Kr ions in the energetic range of 300-600 MeV were used to study the<br />

stability of quasicrystalline Zr-Ti-Ni-Cu under irradiation with swift heavy ions. Irradiation<br />

experiments have been performed at room temperature and at liquid nitrogen<br />

temperature at ISL. Prior to irradiation and after each fluence step the structure of<br />

the material was analyzed by means of X-ray diffraction. The X-ray measurements<br />

have been performed at room temperature under Bragg-Brentano geometry. Some<br />

specimens have also been analyzed by conventional and High Resolution Electron Microscopy<br />

(TEM and HRTEM, respectively) in the non-irradiated condition and after<br />

irradiation to moderate fluence steps. The structure of the specimens was completely<br />

quasicrystalline prior to irradiation. The relative decrease of the relative amount of<br />

the quasicrystalline phase under irradiation was determined by measuring the relative<br />

changes in X-ray peak intensity.<br />

Irradiation with 600 MeV Au ions lead to complete amorphization of the specimens<br />

already at fluence of 1x10 13 cm −2 . At lower fluences amorphous tracks inside the<br />

quasicrystals were visualized by the use of HRTEM. The track diameter near the surface<br />

determined by HREM was 12 nm. This value is in agreement with the value determined<br />

from X-ray diffraction measurements. Amorphization induced by 350 MeV Au ions<br />

and 600 MeV Au ions was assigned to the electronic energy loss while amorphization<br />

by 300 MeV Kr ions is predominantly due to the nuclear energy loss. Within the<br />

experimental uncertainty, there was no difference in amorphization between 350 MeV<br />

Au ions and 600 MeV Au ions. Irradiation at liquid nitrogen temperature results in<br />

slower amorphization compared to room-temperature irradiation. This result is in<br />

qualitative agreement with predictions of thermal spike models.

Über viele einzigartige Eigenschaften von Wasser wurde in den letzten Jahrzehnten berichtet.<br />

Wasser, das in den ungeordneten Bereichen von Zellulose, dem Hauptbestandteil<br />

von Pflanzenzellwänden, adsorbiert, zeigt Flüssigkeitsdynamik unter dem Gefrierpunkt.<br />

Allerdings sind weder die strukturellen Eigenschaften von Wasser in Zellulose<br />

noch die Natur des Phasenübergangs in eine feste Phase komplett verstanden. Unsere<br />

Streuexperimente <strong>mit</strong> Neutronen können helfen, ein Modell für die Struktur und Dynamik<br />

von Wasser in Zellwänden unter 0 ◦ C zu entwickeln. Beim Abkühlen friert ein<br />

zunehmender Anteil der Wassermoleküle in einem graduellen, heterogenen Glasübergang<br />

zu einer neuen Art amorphen Eises ein. Der Rest wird unterkühlt und bleibt bis<br />

hinunter zu 200 K flüssig, allerdings <strong>mit</strong> einer stark verlangsamten Dynamik.<br />

In Modellen der Wasseradsorption in Zellulose wird angenommen, daß jeweils 1–3<br />

Wassermoleküle in bestehende Wasserstoffbrückenbindungen eingefügt werden. In einer<br />

neuen Untersuchung <strong>mit</strong> inelastische Neutronenstreuung von Wasser in orientierten<br />

Zellulosefasern konnten wir finden, daß die dynamischen Eigenschaften des adsorbierten<br />

Wassers ähnlich anisotrop wie seine Umgebung ist. Dies könnte erklären, warum sich<br />

keine ausgedehnten Netzwerke kristallinen Eises in Pflanzenzellwänden ausbilden.

We studied the influence of hydrogen on the growth of sputter deposited V single<br />

layers and on [Fe(2ML)/V(16ML)]×30 superlattices. We show that the high structral<br />

quality achieved previously [1] can be further improved by using hydrogen enriched Argon<br />

(pAr=7 mbar)as process gas during sputter deposition. At each chosen hydrogen<br />

pressure of up to 2×10 −6 mbar we prepared a series of samples at substrate temperatures<br />

between 270 ◦ C and 320 ◦ C. The structural characterization was carried out by<br />

x-ray diffraction at the wiggler beamline W1.1 at the Hamburg synchrotron laboratory<br />

(HASYLAB). Three trends are observed. The mosaicity decreases, the interface quality<br />

increases (Fig. 1), and the transport measurements of 240 ˚A thick V single layers<br />

grown in H-enriched sputter gas reveal a 53 % higher residual resistivity ratio of 14.2<br />

in comparison to V-layers grown without H-enrichment (Fig. 2). The residual resistivity<br />

ratio is a direct measure of the Cooper pairs coherence length which we could<br />

increase due to the H-enrichment by 25 % to 232 ˚A in V. The Cooper pair coherence<br />

length is mainly li<strong>mit</strong>ed by scattering on structural and chemical defects which could<br />

be reduced in the H-enrich sputter process. We attribute this effects to an increased<br />

surface mobility of the metal atoms in the presence of hydrogen during the sputtering<br />

process [2].<br />

The CH3X water clathrates, X=F,Cl,Br, assume the cubic I structure of clathrates as<br />

the natural methane clathrate [1]. The interaction with the cage is significantly different<br />

to the methane case due to the presence of a dipole moment and a tendency to<br />

form hydrogen bonds. By changing the guest molecule these properties can be changed<br />

and allow new insight on the guest-host interaction. Such tuning of the interaction is<br />

not possible with the symmetric methane molecule. The clathrate structure with CH3I<br />

guest molecules is cubic II. Rotational potentials of methyl groups were obtained from<br />

high resolution neutron tunneling spectroscopy. They give information on the potential<br />

energy surface of the cage with e.g. different adsorption sites and on disorder of the<br />

hydrogen bond network of the cage. Quasielastic spectra allow to study in addition to<br />

methyl rotation the rotational and translational dynamics, often called rattling, of the<br />

whole molecule in the cage. Beside of the published results on CH3I [2] and CH3F [3]<br />

clathrates we will present new results on the chlorine and bromine compounds.<br />

Von den meisten Alkali- und Erdalkalimetallacetyliden (A I 2C2 <strong>mit</strong> A I = Li, Na, K und<br />

A II C2 <strong>mit</strong> A II = Ca, Sr, Ba) sind kubische Hochtemperaturmodifikationen bekannt,<br />

die durch fehlgeordnete C2-Hanteln charakterisiert sind. Über die Natur der Fehlordnung<br />

gab es jedoch bislang nur wenige Informationen. Kürzlich konnten wir für K2C2<br />

<strong>mit</strong> Hilfe der 13 C-Festkörper-NMR-Spektroskopie zeigen, dass eine dynamische Fehlordnung<br />

<strong>mit</strong> einer Zeitkonstante deutlich kleiner als 4·10 −6 s vorliegt [1]. Um die Natur<br />

dieser dynamischen Fehlordnung detaillierter zu untersuchen, wurden Neutronenbeugungsexperimente<br />

am ROTAX-Diffraktometer (ISIS/RAL, UK) an K2C2 und isotypem<br />

Na2C2 bei verschiedenen Temperaturen oberhalb der Phasenumwandlungstemperatur<br />

durchgeführt. Es sind zwei grundlegende Modelle denkbar: das Pauling-Modell <strong>mit</strong> einer<br />

freien Rotation der C2-Hanteln um ihren Schwerpunkt und das Frenkel-Modell <strong>mit</strong><br />

Austauschprozessen zwischen verschiedenen Lagen, die in der kubischen Symmetrie<br />

zulässig sind. Rietveld-Verfeinerungen ergeben sowohl für Na2C2 als auch für K2C2<br />

eine bessere Anpassung für das Frenkel-Modell. Dabei wurden die besten Verfeinerungsergebnisse<br />

für Austauschprozesse zwischen Lagen gefunden (s. Abb. 1), bei denen<br />

Using a theory developed recently by one of us, based on a model in which the shear<br />

modulus exhibits a random spatial variation due to the disorder, we derive relations<br />

between the excess of the density of vibrational states and the position and width of<br />

the Brillouin peak observed in inelastic X-ray, neutron and light scattering. Comparing<br />

these relations with results of molecular-dynamics simulations and experiments gives<br />

good agreement with the theory.

X-ray diffraction study of BiB3O6 crystals in an external electric field<br />

The application of a permanent external electric field to a single crystal induces deformations,<br />

visible on both atomic and macroscopic levels. Microscopic deformations<br />

are associated with displacements of atomic positions in a fixed unit cell [1], and result<br />

in dielectric polarization of a media. In addition non-centrosymmetrical crystals are<br />

deformed under electric field, showing thus converse piezoelectric effect.<br />

The information about atomic displacements within a unit cell is obtained from Bragg<br />

diffraction intensities. Macroscopic deformation can be simultaneously quantified from<br />

angular positions of diffraction maxima.<br />

In the present work we performed X-ray diffraction study of monoclinic BiB3O6 crystal<br />

under external electric field. This crystal is interesting because of its extraordinary<br />

piezoelectric effect, at least 10 times stronger than in α-quartz. For the first time<br />

the piezoelectric constants of BiB3O6 were measured by means of a Michelson interferometer<br />

[2]. We have determined piezoelectric constants from shifts of rocking curves<br />

by means of synchrotron X-ray diffraction experiment.<br />

The measurements were performed with three differently oriented samples of BiB3O6<br />

parallel to (100), (010), (001) Miller planes using the four circle HUBER diffractometer<br />

at the D3 beamline at HASYLAB. External high voltage was applied via two silver<br />

contacts deposited on the opposite sample faces. The peak shift and intensity variation<br />

of more than 100 reflections were measured. We used the following equation<br />

to calculate eight independent constants of the piezoelectric tensor dijk.<br />

∆θ(H) = tan θdijkEiHj<br />

Hk<br />

H 2 + dijkEiYj<br />

Hk<br />

H + RijkEiYj<br />

Hk<br />

H<br />

This equation relates the tensor dijk, the antisymmetric rotation tensor Rijk and the<br />

electric field vector Ei with the observed peak shift ∆θ. Hi is the scattering vector<br />

and Yi is the Y-axis of the diffractometer in a crystal Cartesian system as the basic<br />

system. We compare the calculated piezoelectric constants to those, obtained in the<br />

work [2].<br />

To get an information about structural reasons for observed physical properites of<br />

BiB3O6 we measured electric field induced diffraction intensity variations. With the<br />

measured data qualitative statements are made concerning atomic displacements related<br />

to high piezoelectric properties.<br />

FLASH is a free electron laser user facility at DESY providing laser-like radiation in<br />

the VUV and soft X-ray wavelenth regime. The facility unique in the world recently<br />

achieved a world record with lasing at a wavelength of 13.1 nm. A low e<strong>mit</strong>tance electron<br />

beam is accelerated with superconducting accelerating structures of the TESLA<br />

type to an energy of 700 MeV. In a 24 m long undulator system laser-like radiation<br />

is geneated via the SASE process, a single-pass high-gain amplification starting from<br />

noise. The pulsed radiation is fully coherent with a peak brilliance several orders of<br />

magnitudes higher than 3 rd generation synchrotron radiation sources. The pulse length<br />

is in the order of 25 to 50 fs allowing many experiments in different scientific fields, for<br />

instance time resolved observation of chemical reactions with atomic resolution.

Structures of the Metal Oxyhalides MOX (M = Ti, V and X = Cl, Br) at<br />

Low Temperature<br />

The metal(III) oxyhalide MOX structures with M = Ti, V and X = Cl, Br [1] are<br />

isostructural with FeOCl at room temperature: they are built by slabs consisting of a<br />

M2O2 bilayer enclosed by layers of X atoms. Their symmetry is orthorhombic, space<br />

group P mmn. Two phase transitions have been observed in TiOCl and TiOBr upon<br />

cooling, suggesting the presence of a spin-Peierls state [2,3]. In VOCl only one phase<br />

transition is observed [4].<br />

We have performed temperature dependent single crystal X-ray diffraction experiments<br />

down to T = 10 K at beam line D3, HASYLAB-DESY, Germany. The aim of the<br />

experiments was to explore the phase transitions and to develop precise and detailed<br />

structural models for the low temperature and intermediate temperature phases of<br />

these compounds.<br />

The low temperature phases of TiOCl and TiOBr are twofold superstructures of the<br />

room temperature phases [5,6]. They show a dimerization of the Ti atoms along the<br />

[010] direction in accordance with spin-Peierls magnetic ordering. The intermediate<br />

phases are incommensurately modulated with temperature dependent modulation wave<br />

vectors [7,8].<br />

The analysis of the variations of the structural parameters will be presented as function<br />

of temperature. The results are compared and set into relation to the various degrees<br />

of magnetic order in these compounds, which are responsible for the phase transitions.<br />

Therefore the knowledge of the superstructures is important, because it sheds further<br />

light on the nature of the phase transitions in the MOX compounds.<br />

Resonante Beugung verbindet spektroskopische und strukturelle Informationen. Gerade<br />

im Bereich der Übergangsmetall L2,3 Resonanzen im weichen Röntgenbereich zeigt<br />

sich, daß die Methode extrem empfindlich auf den elektronischen Zustand des streuenden<br />

Ions ist. Resonante Beugung ist so<strong>mit</strong> die ideale Methode, um Ordnungsphänomene<br />

in Übergangsmetalloxiden wie orbitale Ordnung oder Ladungsordnung, also periodische<br />

Modulationen des elektronischen Zustandes, zu untersuchen. Deren Rolle wird in Zusammenhang<br />

<strong>mit</strong> der Erklärung von Phänomenen wie Kollossalem Magnetwiderstand<br />

oder Hochtemperatur-Supraleitung intensiv untersucht.<br />

Sr-dotiertes La2NiO4 ist ein System, in dem streifenförmige Ladungsordnung auftritt,<br />

und das wegen seiner strukturellen Ähnlichkeit zu den Kuprat-Supraleitern besonders<br />

interessiert. Für diese Verbindung konnten wir durch die Kombination von resonanter<br />

Beugung und einer quantitativen mikroskopischen Modellierung ein umfassendes<br />

mikroskopisches Bild der Ladungsordnung, insbesondere der Symmetrie der dotierten<br />

Löcher, gewinnen [1]. Ein anderes von uns untersuchtes System ist Magnetit (Fe3O4),<br />

für das der Charakter der Tieftemperaturphase seit langem diskutiert wird. Wir konnten<br />

anhand des Resonanzverhaltens von zwei Beugungsreflexen, die charakteristisch<br />

sind für die beiden dominierenden zusätzlichen Gittermodulationen, die in der Tieftemperaturphase<br />

auftreten, deren elektronischen Charakter untersuchen und sie <strong>mit</strong><br />

Ladungsordnung und orbitaler Ordnung identifizieren.<br />

Using inelastic X-ray scattering we studied the collective atomic dynamics in the glassy<br />

alloy Ni33Zr67 in the first pseudo-Brillouin-zone. This energy-, ¯hω, and momentum-, Q,<br />

region is of primary importance for the investigation of collective modes in disordered<br />

systems. For metallic glasses it had not been accessible up to now. Using IXS this<br />

Q-region could now be explored and key properties such as the dispersion of collective<br />

excitations (see Fig. 1) and the damping of the acoustic modes[1] be determined.<br />

We discuss these results in the general context of recently proposed models for the<br />

damping of acoustic modes in glasses. We demonstrate the existence of well defined (in<br />

the Ioffe-Regel sense) acoustic-like excitations also well above the boson peak energy<br />

in this moderately fragile glass and the importance of the Boson peak intensity for the<br />

damping mechanism.<br />

Die Gründe für die starke Dehnbarkeit und die hohe Reißfestigkeit der Seide der Seidenraupe<br />

Bombyx mori sind trotz umfassender <strong>Forschung</strong> auch heute noch nicht hinreichend<br />

geklärt. Zwar kennt man die chemische Zusammensetzung von Seide, jedoch ist<br />

offenbar die komplexe Morphologie <strong>mit</strong> kristallinen und amorphen Bereichen entscheidend<br />

für die mechanischen Eigenschaften. Während Kristalle sich sehr gut <strong>mit</strong> Röntgendiffraktion<br />

untersuchen lassen, ist die inkohärente inelastische Neutronenstreuung<br />

(INS) auf lokale Eigenschaften von Molekülen und da<strong>mit</strong> auch auf die Dynamik ungeordneter<br />

Bereiche sensitiv. Wir haben entsprechende Streckexperimente in situ sowohl<br />

erstmals am Neutronenspektrometer IN6 (ILL) als auch an der Synchrotron–Beamline<br />

A2 (HASYLAB) durchgeführt.<br />

Beim INS–Experiment wurde eine Deuterierungstechnik zur Maskierung der kristallinen<br />

Bereiche von Seide angewandt, wie sie bereits für Zellulosefasern beschrieben wurde<br />

[1]. Die so erhaltenen Phononenspektren amorpher Seide bei verschiedenen Dehnungen<br />

der Seidenfasern geben einen direkten Hinweis darauf, daß die ungeordneten Moleküle<br />

einen großen Teil der makroskopischen Dehnung ermöglichen.<br />

Im komplementären Experiment <strong>mit</strong> Röntgenstrahlung wurde umgekehrt gefunden,<br />

daß die kristallinen Bereiche jeweils unter der makroskopischen mechanischen Spannung<br />

gehalten werden, sich aber z. B. in feuchter Seide nur um 1.5 % bei einer makroskopischen<br />

Dehnung von 20 % unter Zug dehnen.<br />

Almost 100 years after discovery and extensive and accurate studies, covered in a<br />

great number of publications, little remains unknown and unobserved related to Bragg<br />

diffraction of x rays. However, unexplored areas concealing a wealth of new knowledge<br />

still exist even in such a very well charted terrain. Such a surprisingly untried area,<br />

opening new physical effects and perspectives of applications, is Bragg diffraction in<br />

backscattering from asymmetrically cut perfect crystals.<br />

We observe three effects in the Bragg diffraction of x rays in backscattering geometry<br />

from asymmetrically cut crystals, predicted theoretically in [1].<br />

First, exact Bragg backscattering takes place not at normal incidence to the reflecting<br />

atomic planes.<br />

Second, a well collimated (� 1 µrad) beam is transformed after the Bragg reflection<br />

into a strongly divergent beam (230 µrad) with reflection angle dependent on x-ray<br />

wavelength – an effect of angular dispersion. The asymmetrically cut crystal thus<br />

behaves like an optical prism, dispersing an incident collimated polychromatic beam.<br />

The dispersion rate is � 8.5 mrad/eV.<br />

Third, parasitic Bragg reflections accompanying Bragg backreflection are suppressed.<br />

These effects offer radically new means for monochromatization of x-rays not li<strong>mit</strong>ed<br />

by the intrinsic width of the Bragg reflection. These and other applications of the<br />

observed effects will be discussed in another paper sub<strong>mit</strong>ted to the conference [2].<br />

Adsorption geometry of large organic molecules studied by NIXSW: Snphthalocyanine<br />

and NTCDA on Ag(111)<br />

The properties of organic thin films largely depend on the balance between moleculemolecule<br />

and molecule-substrate interactions and can often be tuned by changing the<br />

preparation conditions like temperature or coverage. This is also the case for 1,4,5,8-<br />

Naphthalenetetracarboxylic dianhydride (NTCDA) and the family of phthalocyanines<br />

(Pc) which are frequently studied as adsorbates on various surfaces.<br />

Here we present results obtained for SnPc, a non-planar representative of the phathalocyanines,<br />

and its adsorption on the Ag(111) surface in a coverage up to one monolayer.<br />

We used a combination of the synchrotron-based NIXSW (normal incident x-ray standing<br />

wave) method and SPA-LEED (spot profile analysing low energy electron diffraction)<br />

to study the vertical and lateral adsorption geometry. Various different adsorption<br />

phases where found, depending on coverage and substrate temperature, and tow phases<br />

were investigated in detail. In the incommensurate monolayer structure at room temperature<br />

(RT) with one molecule per unit cell it adsorbs in a tin-down geometry, where<br />

the Sn is closer to the uppermost silver atoms than the N and C atoms. In the commensurate<br />

submonolayer structure at 150K with two molecules per unit cell a mixed<br />

structure with both, tin-up and tin-down geometries is found. The latter is only stable<br />

at low temperatures and the corresponding RT structure is disordered. Furthermore,<br />

the phenyl rings lie always closer to the surface than the porphyrine N atoms, an effect,<br />

which is even stronger for the LT phase than for the RT phase. This bending is an<br />

important information which clearly shows a strong interaction between the phenyl<br />

rings of the molecule and the substrate.<br />

In the case of NTCDA/Ag(111) the so-called relaxed monolayer was studied by NIXSW<br />

and a significant vertical distortion of the molecule is found upon adsorption. The core<br />

level shift of the carboxylic oxygen and the anhydride oxygen was used to determine the<br />

individual atom heights above the silver surface. The carboxylic oxygen at the corners<br />

of the molecule is significantly bended downwards, whereas the anhydride oxygen in<br />

the bridge position is at the same height as the naphthalene core.<br />

For all the analysis non dipolar effects of the photo electrons are taken into account.<br />

In the case of SnPc/Ag(111) a multilayer is investigated to determine the asymmetry<br />

parameter of the non dipolar contributions to the photoemission yield. In the case of<br />

NTCDA/Ag(111) a comparison of O KLL and O1s data allows the determination of<br />

this asymmetry parameter and the portion of electron induced Auger processes.

Experimentelle Techniken zur Untersuchung ultraschneller dynamischer Prozesse in<br />

Festkörpern, Flüssigkeiten und Gasen waren bislang weitgehend auf den Gebrauch<br />

ultrakurzer optischer Laserpulse begrenzt, <strong>mit</strong> denen Details dieser Vorgänge stroboskopartig<br />

abgebildet werden können. Hierbei sind jedoch die beobachtbaren physikalischen<br />

Aspekte auf den Bereich eingeschränkt, der <strong>mit</strong> spektroskopischen Methoden im<br />

optischen Wellenlängenbereich zugänglich ist. Eine weitreichende und vielversprechende<br />

Erweiterung dieser Technik verspricht der Gebrauch von ultrakurzen Röntgenpulsen,<br />

der die hohe Zeitauflösung <strong>mit</strong> dem enormen Potential der Röntgenspektroskopie<br />

kombiniert, die z.B. Element- und Ortsspezifität sowie die Untersuchung magnetischer<br />

Phänomene erlaubt. Die bisherige Pulsdauer von an Synchrotronstrahlungsquellen erzeugter<br />

Röntgenstrahlung liegt jedoch <strong>mit</strong> typischerweise 50 ps zwei bis drei Größenordnungen<br />

über der erforderlichen Zeitauflösung.<br />

Am Berliner Elektronenspeichering BESSY ist während der vergangenen zwei Jahre<br />

ein Konzept realisiert worden, das die Erzeugung von Röntgenpulsen von ∼150 fs<br />

Dauer, durchstimmbarer Photonenenergie (ca. 400 bis 1200 eV) und variabler Polarisation<br />

ermöglicht [1,2]. Beim sogenannten ” Femto-Slicing“ [3] wird ein Elektronenpaket<br />

des Speicherrings in einem ersten Undulator ( ” Modulator“) <strong>mit</strong> einem optischen<br />

fs-Laserpuls überlagert. Eine ” Scheibe“ von Elektronen im Wechselwirkungsbereich,<br />

die im wesentlichen der Länge des Laserpulses entspricht, wird dabei energiemoduliert<br />

und in einer energiedispersiven Strecke vom Hauptbündel absepariert. In einem zweiten<br />

Undulator ( ” Radiator“) strahlt die Elektronenscheibe einen Röntgenpuls etwa gleicher<br />

Dauer ab, der für Experimente genutzt werden kann.<br />

Es werden der Aufbau des Femto-Slicing-Experimentes und beispielhaft experimentelle<br />

Ergebnisse präsentiert, die die erzeugten Femtosekundenröntgenpulse erfolgreich<br />

in einem ” laser-pump & x-ray-probe“-Experiment nachweisen und das Potential der<br />

Technick demonstrieren. Die Femto-Slicing-Einrichtung beim BESSY wird in Kürze<br />

für externe Nutzer offenstehen.<br />

We present surface x-ray photon correlation spectroscopy (XPCS) measurements of the<br />

dynamic structure factor S(q, τ) of gold nanoparticles moving on the surface of thin<br />

polystyrene films. Above the glass transition of the polymer the dynamic structure<br />

factor follows the peculiar form S(q, τ) ∼ exp[−(2Γτ) α ]. Depending on the sample<br />

composition and age, the exponent α ranges between 0.7 and 1.9. A dispersion relation<br />

from q = 0.1 to 0.6 nm −1 is obtained, thus probing dynamics in the nanometer regime.<br />

The relaxation time τ scales as q −1 in contrast to the q −2 behavior of simple Brownian<br />

diffusive motion. This type of correlation function is due to a power law distribution of<br />

particle velocities which has also been observed in other aging bulk soft matter systems.<br />

The special form of the dynamic structure factor characterizes a hyperdiffusive or<br />

ballistic motion of the gold clusters.

We report on inelastic neutron scattering measurements on Al4Ni melts with different<br />

isotopic compositions. The experiments were performed at the new time-of-flight<br />

instrument of the neutron source Heinz Maier-Leibnitz in Garching, yielding an exceptionally<br />

good signal-to-background ratio.<br />

AlNi melts exhibit a strong non-linear dependence of the Ni self diffusion on stoichiometric<br />

composition. By measuring Al4Ni samples with three different Ni isotopic<br />

compositions (natural Ni, 58 Ni, and 60 Ni), we are able to derive the three partial structure<br />

factors. The amplitude as well as the time scale of diffusive atomic motion exhibit<br />

a strong dependence on coherent, respectively incoherent contributions to scattering,<br />

and secondly, their oscillations are in phase with the static structure factor. This<br />

data set allows a detailed investigation of the diffusion mechanism in AlNi melts. The<br />

experimental results are compared with Molecular Dynamics computer simulations.

Diffuse neutron scattering from a kagomé antiferromagnet<br />

A new type of magnetic metal oxides has recently been discovered, containing a net<br />

of tetrahedrally coordinated Co. The transition metal sublattice forms perfect kagomé<br />

type layers and the interlayer coupling situation is geometrically frustrated. In the<br />

stoichiometry Y0.5Ca0.5BaCo4O7 [1], this frustration together with an unusual spin<br />

state of the inter-layers Co causes the layers to magnetically decouple. Although susceptibility<br />

measurements indicate strong antiferromagnetic coupling between spins, the<br />

magnetic part neutron diffraction data, separated through polarization, shows no longrange<br />

order down to 1.2 K [2]. The observed diffuse peak indicates an ordering tendency<br />

towards a staggered chiral ground state, a spin structure of Heisenberg spins in layers<br />

called � (3)x � (3). This coplanar spin structure exhibits degeneracy with local chiral<br />

disorder even at very low temperatures. Studies of this complex magnetic state give<br />

clues to unique spin ordering effects close to their ground state.<br />

It was previously noted that acoustic phonons in YNi2B2C [1] and LuNi2B2C [2] with<br />

wavevectors q ≈ (0.5,0,0) undergo strong changes of their lineshapes upon entering the<br />

superconducting (SC) state. However, no convincing interpretation of the data could<br />

be given.<br />

Here, we present inelastic neutron scattering data on YNi2B2C (Tc = 15 K). We made<br />

a systematic study of the already known phonon anomaly in the (100)-direction as well<br />

as of a so far unexplored anomaly at the zone boundary in the (110)-direction (Mpoint).<br />

Our data unambiguously show that the superconductivity-induced changes of<br />

the spectral function of phonons with a strong electron-phonon coupling can extremely<br />

well be understood in the framework of a theory proposed by Allen et al. [3]. The<br />

analysis yields the temperature dependent SC energy gap with high accuracy. As a<br />

consequence, even deviations from BCS like behavior can be assessed with confidence.<br />

Further, we found that the Sc gap extracted from the phonon data for q=(0.5,0,0)<br />

and q=(0.5,0.5,0), respectively, differs by a factor 1.4. This is a direct proof for the<br />

long discussed anisotropy of the SC energy gap in borocarbides (e.g., Ref. [4]). A<br />

prerequisite for the observation of the gap anisotropy is to select phonons for which<br />

the dominant coupling to the quasiparticles stems from a relatively small part of the<br />

Fermi surface. Our choice was guided by DFT calculations [5] which predict both the<br />

phonon frequencies and linewidths very well.<br />

Boltzmann equations are applied for modelling the radiation damage in samples irradiated<br />

by photons e<strong>mit</strong>ted from free electron laser (FEL). This statistical approach is<br />

used to model the evolution of a spherically symmetric xenon cluster consisting of 1000<br />

atoms irradiated with FEL photons at VUV energies. Simulation parameters follow<br />

those set in the first cluster experiments performed at FLASH at DESY HAMBURG.<br />

Predictions obtained with this theoretical model are then compared to the experimental<br />

data. The results obtained demonstrate the potential of the Boltzmann method<br />

for describing the complex and non-equilibrium dynamics of samples exposed to FEL<br />

radiation. In particular, this approach work also well for large samples, for which the<br />

standard simulation methods become inefficient.

Nach der Bestrahlung der dünnen, nanokristallinen Ti und TiN Schichten <strong>mit</strong> schnellen<br />

schweren Ionen wurde eine Änderung der Orientierungsverteilung gemessen. Die ca.<br />

1 µm dicken Schichten wurden auf Silizium aufgedampft und anschließend <strong>mit</strong> 350<br />

MeV Au Ionen bis zu 2 × 10 15 ions/cm 2 am HMI Ionenbeschleuniger (ISL) bestrahlt.<br />

Um die Einflüsse der Oberflächenenergie und der Ionenbestrahlung trennen zu können,<br />

wurden die Schichten unter 30 ◦ zur Probennormale bestrahlt.<br />

Die Textur der Schichten wurde für unterschiedliche Fluenzen an der BESSY Synchrotronsstrahlungsquelle<br />

gemessen. In unbestrahlten Schichten wurde, wie erwartet, eine<br />

zylindersymmetrische Verteilung der Orientierungen gemessen. Im Fall der bestrahlten<br />

Proben wurden zwei Änderungen beobachtet:<br />

i) Die zylindrische Symmetrie wurde gebrochen, und die Textur wandelte sich <strong>mit</strong> zunehmender<br />

Fluenz von einer Faser-Textur in eine Mosaik-Textur um. Die Orientierung<br />

der neuen Textur hing sehr stark von der Ionen-Richtung ab.<br />

ii) Die Orientierungsverteilung rotierte proportional zur Ionenfluenz bis zum Bruch<br />

der Zylindersymmetrie in der Richtung weg von dem Ionenstrahl. Die Rotation war,<br />

für Winkel bis etwa 50 ◦ , umkehrbar durch Änderung der Bestrahlungsrichtung.<br />

Eine mögliche Erklärung für die beobachtete Änderung der Symmetrie ist eine Wechselwirkung<br />

der Ionen <strong>mit</strong> dem Kristallgitter. Beachtet man jedoch die Rotation und die<br />

Umkehrbarkeit des Effektes, so können diese nur durch die Wechselwirkung zwischen<br />

Ionen und isotropem Material beschrieben werden.<br />

Da diese Änderungen in grobkristallinen Materialien nicht beobachtet wurden, nehmen<br />

wir an, dass die Ionen <strong>mit</strong> den amorphen Korngrenzen wechselwirken. Der Anteil<br />

der Atome, die sich in nanokristallinen Materialien in den Korngrenzen befinden<br />

liegt im Prozentbereich. Werden amorphe, statt nanokristalline, dünne Schichten<br />

<strong>mit</strong> schnellen, schweren Ionen bestrahlt, fließen sie in Richtung der Bestrahlung plastisch[1,2].<br />

Die amorphen Korngrenzen in nanokristallinen Schichten könnten auf die<br />

gleiche Art fließen. Dabei würden die Körner von dem umgebenden Material <strong>mit</strong>getragen.<br />

Die Rotation der Körner ergibt sich dann daraus, dass die Fließgeschwindigkeit<br />

an der Oberfläche größer ist als in der Nähe des Substrates.<br />

Surface oxidation of metals using oxygen ion beams<br />

Nikolai Alov 1<br />

1 Lomonosov Moscow State University, 119992 Moscow, Russia<br />

Surface oxidation of Mo, W, Nb and Ta using oxygen ion beams was investigated by Xray<br />

photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Irradiation by oxygen ion beams was carried out<br />

at room temperature with ion energy of 1-5 keV, dose of 10 15 -10 18 cm −2 and direction<br />

normal to surface. XPS analysis of oxidized metal surfaces was performed in situ using<br />

Leybold LHS-10 electron spectrometer. The fitted XPS spectra of Mo 3d and W 4f core<br />

levels show that the metal oxidation states 4+, 5+ and 6+ are present in oxide films.<br />

At the initial stage of irradiation the rapid oxidation of Mo and W surface layers was<br />

observed. At higher dose, which depends on the energy of oxygen ions and the kind of<br />

metal, the oxidation of surface layers reaches saturation and the surface composition<br />

remains almost unchanged with increasing irradiation dose. The fitted XPS spectra<br />

of Nb 3d and Ta 4f core levels show that the metal oxidation states 2+, 4+ and 5+<br />

are present in oxide films. At the initial stage of irradiation the rapid oxidation of Nb<br />

and Ta surface layers was observed. However, at higher dose, which depends on the<br />

energy of oxygen ions and the kind of metal, the population of Nb2+, Nb4+, Ta2+ and<br />

Ta4+ reaches a maximum and then begins to decrease. The population of Nb5+ and<br />

Ta5+ continues to increase and the entire oxide films will consist of only Nb5+ and<br />

Ta5+. Using XPS data the absolute values of fundamental parameters of low-energy<br />

oxygen ion interaction with metal surfaces (reaction and sputtering cross-sections) were<br />

calculated.

The last few years have seen an increasing interest in in-situ powder diffraction experiments.<br />

Such experiments benefit from the advantages of the usage of synchrotron<br />

radiation like a high angular resolution of the instrument to detect small changes in<br />

lattice parameter, free choice of wavelength to reduce absorption effects of the sample<br />

as well as its environment and the high intensity of the beam giving a high time resolution<br />

by a good data quality suitable for Rietfeld refinements. At beamline B2@DORIS,<br />

HASYLAB two dedicated sample environments for specialised in-situ investigations are<br />

in user service.<br />

A special design of a coin cell allows observing the cycling behaviour of secondary<br />

lithium ion batteries during the charge - discharge process [1,2]. Result on the cathode<br />

materials LiNiO2 and LiCoO2 and their phase behaviour will be reported.<br />

A new furnace working in capillary geometry is dedicated for diffraction experiments<br />

under controlled atmosphere like oxygen, hydrogen or noble gas up to 5 bars. Herby<br />

chemical synthesis of catalysts or inorganic substances, phase identification under reaction<br />

conditions and material characterisation under controlled atmosphere are possible.<br />

Both sample environments are also suitable for EXAFS-investigation.<br />

Time-resolved views onto gas hydrate formation and decomposition using<br />

neutron diffraction<br />

The kinetics of formation/decomposition processes of gas hydrates is a complicated<br />

multi-phase process, details of which are still largely unknown. Clearly, a better understanding<br />

of these processes will help to answer a number of unsolved geoscientific<br />

questions and may enable a wide range of new industrial and scientific applications in<br />

the field of gas hydrates. Time-resolved neutron diffraction on D20 at ILL/ Grenoble<br />

proved to be of crucial importance to unravel the transformation of ice particles<br />

into gas hydrates taking place in a multistage process [1,2,3] The reaction starts with<br />

nucleation-and-growth and later changes to a diffusion controlled formation. Similarly,<br />

the decomposition reaction of gas hydrates back into ice was followed by time-resolved<br />

neutron diffraction. Here, a complication arises at lower temperatures due to the intermediate<br />

formation of defective, stacking-faulty ice (resembling so-called ice Ic) [4].<br />

Thus, treating the diffraction data calls for a proper description of the stacking faults<br />

in the defective ice formed. We shall report on the progress made in describing the<br />

decomposition reaction followed by time-resolved neutron diffraction and helped by<br />

in-house work using physico-chemical methods and scanning electron microscopy.<br />

2D-Mapping of the catalyst structure inside a fixed-bed reactor: Partial<br />

In situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy is a well-suited technique to gain information<br />

on the structure of heterogeneous catalysts. In certain cases a variation of the catalyst<br />

structure can occur inside a catalytic reactor as a result of temperature or concentration<br />

gradients. This requires spatially resolved molecular information on a microscale.<br />

Here, we have used a position sensitive X-ray camera to record XANES spectra from<br />

inside the catalytic reactor with a spatial resolution on the scale of a few micrometers<br />

[1]. The catalytic performance was determined simultaneously using mass spectrometric<br />

analysis. Partial oxidation of methane over Rh/Al2O3 catalyst is used as<br />

an example. For recording locally resolved the absorption of the sample inside the<br />

catalytic microreactor, a CCD camera was installed behind the in situ cell and X-ray<br />

absorption images were recorded around the Rh K-edge (23220 eV) as shown in the<br />

Figure. In total, 170 absorption images were taken that allowed the reconstruction<br />

of the full Rh K-edge XANES spectra at each pixel (a corresponding movie can be<br />

downloaded at [2]). The measurements uncovered tremendous changes of the structure<br />

of the Rh particles along the catalyst bed within less than 100 micrometer. The shape<br />

and position of the gradient strongly depended on temperature and flow [3].<br />

Phase transition of β − MoTe2 studied by temperature-dependent angleresolved<br />

photoemission spectroscopy<br />

The β-type of the polymorph material MoTe2 grown by chemical vapor transport at<br />

temperatures above 900 ◦ C shows a layered structure which can be described as stacked<br />

sandwiches of the tree layers Te-Mo-Te. Therefore, the crystals exhibit distinct twodimensional<br />

behavior.<br />

At room temperature β − MoTe2 has a monoclinic crystal structure. The Te atoms<br />

are placed around the metal atom in a slightly distorted octahedron and therefore the<br />

metal atoms form zigzag-chains along the crystallographic x2 direction. By cooling<br />

below 250K, β − MoTe2 undergoes a phase transition, where the monoclinic angle of<br />

the high temperature phase changes from 93 ◦ 55” to 90 ◦ , resulting in an orthorhombic<br />

structure.<br />

In this contribution we present a detailed temperature dependent study of electronic<br />

band structure of β − MoTe2 performed by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy<br />

(ARPES). The measurements were carried out at the BUS undulator beamline at<br />

BESSY II supplemented by data taken with HeI radiation. It results that the dispersions<br />

of the valence bands along the different high-symmetric directions of the Brillouin<br />

zone are extremely weak except for the bands very close to the Fermi level. These bands<br />

reveal close insight into the low temperature and phase transition behavior of quasitwo<br />

dimensional materials like β −MoTe2. The experimental findings will be compared<br />

with additional tight-binding band structure calculations.

The impact of a pulse of high-energy electrons creates electron-hole pairs in solids, or<br />

forms a number of reducing or oxidizing species in solutions. Electrons and holes can<br />

move and recombine independently or are trapped by structural defects or impurities.<br />

In solution, the species created can reduce or oxidize additives nearly instantaneously,<br />

which may be the starting point for a sequence of chemical reactions. These processes<br />

can be detected in solids, such as glasses or glassy-crystalline materials, and in<br />

solutions in situ by means of optical methods. Conductometric methods are also applicable,<br />

either simultaneously with the optical or as stand-alone methods. After a short<br />

introduction to the pulse radiolysis apparatus of the 4 MeV van de Graaff accelerator<br />

facility ELBENA at the Hahn-Meitner-Institut, three examples are given. Firstly, the<br />

formation and disappearance of a short-lived thallium-silver cluster in aqueous solution<br />

is discussed. Secondly, the concentration of nitrous oxide in aqueous solutions of<br />

different contents of NaCl or LiCl is measured, thus representing a kinetic method for<br />

the determination of the salting-out effect. Thirdly, optical emission and absorption<br />

spectra of a bariumsilicate glass are compared with the results obtained with a fused<br />

quartz.

XANES on the S K-edge is a powerful technique for studying<br />

sulphur species present on catalytic materials. The possibility<br />

of following the oxidation state of sulphur in situ during<br />

the reactions reveals new insights into the formation sulfur<br />

species on solid catalysts.<br />

The design of the reaction chamber and the sealing against<br />

the vacuum is shown in Figure 1. The sample chamber is inserted<br />

into a modified 6-way cross, which can be directly attached<br />

to the equipment used at the ANKA XAFS beamline.<br />

The in situ cell is applicable for experiments in the temperature<br />

range between 303 and 673 K at a maximum pressure of<br />

1 bar. The sample is placed inside the reaction chamber and<br />

sealed against the vacuum to minimize absorption and scattering<br />

of the gas phase with a 0.0075 mm Kapton window.<br />

The cell allows experiments in transmission and fluorescence<br />

mode. Reaction gas mixtures containing H2, O2, SO2, H2S<br />

were tested in absence as well as in presence of water.<br />

Sucessful examples for the use of low energy XAS for the SOx trapping under oxidizing<br />

conditions using novel metal organic framework materials and the characterization of<br />

novel hydro-isomerization catalysts will be presented.

The hydrogenation of 1-pentyne over various palladium catalysts was studies under different<br />

conditions. X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) measurements performed<br />

at the synchrotron radiation facility BESSY in Berlin at 0.9 mbar in a mixed atmosphere<br />

of hydrogen and 1-pentyne show significant amounts of subsurface carbon and a<br />

Pd-C surface phase builds up in the early stage of the reaction in the regime of selective<br />

hydrogenation. These species inhibit the emergence of bulk-dissolved hydrogen to the<br />

surface, which is reactive, but unselective. Carbon laydown was also observed by Tapered<br />

Element Oscillating Microbalance (TEOM) and by catalytic pulse experiments<br />

with greater laydown occurring in the selective regime. The effect of carbon dissolution<br />

in the crystal lattice near the surface was evidence by High-Resolution Transmission<br />

Electron Microscopy (HRTEM). In alkyne hydrogenation the active phase of palladium<br />

catalysts is a Pd-C surface phase in the regime of selective hydrogenation. As<br />

self-hydrogenation (hydrogen from dissociated 1-pentyne) was shown to be unselective<br />

as well, only surface hydrogen from the gas phase is available to generate the alkene.<br />

A model of the palladium surface during 1-pentyne hydrogenation is suggested.<br />

The contribution shows, that the application of synchrotron radiation to perform<br />

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy under reaction conditions, is a very powerful tool<br />

for the characterization of heterogeneous catalytic processes especially in combination<br />

with other methods.<br />

Electrochemical processes like electrocatalysis, wet surface cleaning and etching, thin<br />

film deposition, and corrosion are ubiquitous in modern life und usually exhibit a<br />

considerable degree of scientific complexity. The SoLiAS experimental station (Solid-<br />

Liquid-Interface Analysis System), is dedicated to the analysis of such processes using<br />

3rd generation synchrotron light forstate-of-the-art photoemission and X-ray absorption<br />

spectroscopy. Specific preparational facilities have been established within<br />

SoLiAS in order to bridge the pressure and environmental gap: A purpose-designed<br />

atmospheric pressure inert gas cell for ex-situ emersion experiments (cf. Fig. 1) allows<br />

for high quality spectra even after transfer from the electrolyte. In addition, a<br />

low-temperature-adsorption stage is used for the preparation of model electrolytes by<br />

vacuum adsorption of electrolyte species under defined conditions (cf. Fig. 2).<br />

In this contribution, the capabilities of the SoLiAS end station are presented and<br />

illustrated with scientific projects from the course of four years of user operation. This<br />

includes projects from applied fields as photovoltaic solar energy conversion, electrocatalysis<br />

in fuel cells, and high density Li-ion batteries to projects from fundamental<br />

research of electrolyte electronic structure, solvation effects, and nanostrutured film<br />

formation, which have been conducted within our group and in collaboration with<br />

project partners from the international electrochemistry community. The broad range<br />

of research fields demonstrates the flexibility and versatility of the system.<br />

In den letzten Jahrzehnten wurden unter solvothermalen Bedingungen viele neue poröse<br />

Materialien dargestellt. Neben den typischen oxidischen Verbindungen wurden in großem<br />

Umfang Materialien auf Sulfidbasis unter diesen Bedingungen synthetisiert. Besonders<br />

interessante Stoffklassen stellen die Thiostannate und antimonate dar, bei denen in die<br />

Kristallstruktur Übergangsmetalle integriert sind.<br />

Die Schwierigkeit bei der gezielten Darstellung solcher Materialien besteht darin, dass<br />

über die Reaktionsmechanismen nur sehr wenig bekannt ist und so<strong>mit</strong> die Synthesen<br />

nicht gezielt geplant werden können. Durch Untersuchung <strong>mit</strong> energiedispersiver insitu-Röntgenbeugung<br />

(EDXRD) kann das Wachstum der kristallinen Produkte ebenso<br />

wie gegebenenfalls vorhandener kristalliner Precursoren und Zwischenprodukte verfolgt<br />

werden.<br />

wurde der Einfluss verschiedener Edukte auf<br />

den Reaktionsverlauf untersucht. Die Synthese wurde in 2 mL einer 50 %igen, wässrigen<br />

weiteren Versuchen wurde statt elementarem Zinn das Chlorid SnCl2·2 H2O und statt<br />

eine drastische Änderung der Reaktionsgeschwindigkeit beobachtet werden. Ein Einfluss<br />

The lipid matrix of the stratum corneum (SC) of mammals is a mixture, whose main<br />

components are ceramides (Cer), cholesterol (Chol) and saturated fatty acids (FA).<br />

Probably because of being so unusual, and also due to the absence of applications of<br />

alike lipid blends in the industry, the physical-chemical properties of mixtures involving<br />

these classes of lipids have not been the object of systematic studies similar to those<br />

existing for ubiquitous lipids, such as cholines.<br />

Our objective in this work is the study of the thermotropic binary phase diagrams for<br />

the system containing C16 acyl ceramide and cholesterol, Cer16/Chol, at low ionic<br />

strength (100 mM) in excess water. Once obtained the binary phase diagram of<br />

Cer16/Chol we investigate the effect of the presence of pal<strong>mit</strong>ic acid FA16, ionized<br />

and protonated, in the thermotropism and structural properties of the mixture. The<br />

experiments including FA were done only for the relative Cer/Chol composition found<br />

in the SC lipid matrix (54:46 Cer16/Chol mole ratio), in this way crossing the composition<br />

equivalent to the Cer/Chol/FA relative abundances in the SC. From DSC we<br />

obtained the more plausible phase boundaries that were subsequently checked, and<br />

structurally characterized, by simultaneous SAXD and WAXD as a function of temperature.<br />

Ceramide systems are known to have metastable phases attributed to the strong interaction<br />

between headgroups. Pure Cer16 forms a lamellar phase that, as observed with<br />

other sphingolipids, suffers no thermal expansion until the phase transition, observed<br />

by DSC at 90 o C. In the region from 47-65 o C the chain structure gradually changes<br />

from ordered to relatively disordered. In the presence of Chol two new phases appear:<br />

one that can be ascribed to pure Chol in the monohydrate or anhydrous form, and<br />

other that may be interpreted as the result of Chol being dissolved in Cer16 lamellae.<br />

The analysis of the data allows the deduction of the thermotropic phase diagram for<br />

the Cer16/Chol system in excess water. From the DSC thermograms, and the SAX<br />

and WAX diffractograms of the mixtures between 54:46 Cer16/Chol and FA16 at two<br />

extreme pH values (corresponding to fully protonated and fully deprotonated FA16)<br />

we also deduce the phase behavior of these mixtures as a function of the FA16 molar<br />

fraction.

In higher animals, mechanical work is performed by translational molecular motors<br />

(protein macromolecules which transduce the free energy of ATP hydrolysis into linear<br />

motion). The most ubiquitous motor, myosin, achieves this by a multi-stage catalysis<br />

of ATP hydrolysis, powering cardiac and smooth muscle, all voluntary movement,<br />

and also adjustment of visual and aural acuity and myriad processes in intracellular<br />

physiology. Myosins form a class of at least 17 different forms of translational motor<br />

[1] Myosin II, present in all muscle tissue, is unique in that it forms helically-based<br />

filamentous aggregates. In striated muscles, these are arranged in a quasi-crystalline<br />

array, per<strong>mit</strong>ting structural events in the motor to be investigated dynamically by<br />

time-resolved X-ray diffraction. The X-ray pattern from skeletal muscle contains a<br />

strong axial reflection (M3) at a spacing corresponding to the third harmonic of the<br />

pitch of the myosin helix, which is sensitive to changes in myosin molecular structure.<br />

Upon activation, it undergoes changes in both intensity (IM3) and in axial spacing<br />

(dM3) [2]. We have studied the changes in M3 which accompany the motor power<br />

stroke in the microsecond time domain, and have attempted to relate these changes to<br />

the crystallographic structure of the myosin molecule.<br />

IM3 changes reflect structural events in the S1 moiety of myosin, which projects from<br />

the surface of the myosin filament on a helical pitch and bears both the ATP catalytic<br />

site and the binding sites for the filamentous protein, actin (the ’track’ along which<br />

the myosin ’locomotive’ runs). Recent crystallographic work suggests that the motor<br />

mechanism is a tilting of the ’lever arm’ domain of S1, an a-helix chain of 9nm in length,<br />

linking the actin- and ATP-binding motor domain to the myosin filament backbone,<br />

producing 2-5 pN of force if isometric, or ca. 10 nm of translation if movement is<br />

per<strong>mit</strong>ted.<br />

dM3 increases by ca. 1.5 % upon activation. This change is not explicable by structural<br />

events in S1. Instead, it may indicate a change in the myosin filament backbone<br />

structure, or the formation of a new axial unit cell due to the mismatch of actin and<br />

myosin filament helices. Recently, we examined this phenomenon further [3]. Our<br />

findings question the origin of this spacing change, suggesting that dM3 is not an<br />

indicator of actin-S1 interaction, and allowing us to propose a new mechanism for dM3<br />

changes which could have important consequences for the prevailing models of the<br />

mechanism of contraction.<br />

Im Rahmen des XMTB-Strukturgenomik-Konsortiums untersuchten wir die Struktur-<br />

Funktionsbeziehungen von Schlüsselenzymen des Shikimat-Reaktionswegs in Mycobacterium<br />

tuberculosis. Wir lösten zunächst die Kristallstrukturen der Enzyme und einer<br />

Reihe von Komplexen <strong>mit</strong> natürlichen Substraten und Kofaktoren. In einem weiteren<br />

Schritt untersuchten wir intermediäre Zustände im Verlauf der katalytischen Reaktionen.<br />

Für zwei der Enzyme, Shikimat-Kinase (AroK) und EPSP-Synthase (AroA),<br />

konnte jeweils der gesamte Reaktionsweg im Kristall einschließlich der Bildung und<br />

der stufenweisen Freisetzung der Produkte bei hoher Auflösung verfolgt werden. Für<br />

ein weiteres Enzym, die Chorismat-Synthase (AroF), wurde einer der Zwischenschritte<br />

strukturmodelliert. Der Shikimat-Reaktionsweg ist essentiell für die Synthese aromatischer<br />

Aminoäuren in Mikroorganismen. Der Reaktionsweg existiert nicht in Mammalien.<br />

Diese Enzyme stellen daher potentielle Ziele für die Entwicklung neuer Antibiotika<br />

dar.<br />

Die Reaktionsmechanismen der untersuchten Enzyme schließen konzertierte Konformationsänderungen<br />

ein, die vor allem im Falle von AroA hohe Komplexität aufweisen.<br />

Die beiden Substrate Shikimat-3-Phosphat (S3P) und PEP werden von der EPSP-<br />

Synthase in sequentiellen Schritten gebunden. Die Wechselwirkung <strong>mit</strong> S3P induziert<br />

Bewegungen großer Amplitude, die für die Bildung der PEP-Bindungsstelle erforderlich<br />

sind. Das nachfolgende Andocken von PEP liefert das Signal für eine Schließbewegung<br />

der N- und C-terminalen Domänen. Die Reaktion setzt sich über die Bildung<br />

eines tetraedrischen Intermediats, die Trennung in Enolpyruvylshikimat-3-Phosphat<br />

(EPSP) und Phosphat, sowie die Freisetzung der Produkte von einer partiell geöffneten<br />

Konformation des Enzymmoleküls fort. Die strukturelle Charakterisierung sämtlicher<br />

Einzelschritte schafft eine Basis für eine detaillierte Beschreibung des chemischen<br />

Mechanismus.<br />

During operation of proteins as universal nanomachines or involved in the transmission<br />

and amplification of signals, conformational changes are omnipresent. An intriguing<br />

combination of structure and flexibility facilitates their activity. Conformational<br />

changes can be triggered by small-amplitude, nanosecond protein domain motion. Understanding<br />

how conformational changes are initiated requires the characterization of<br />

protein domain motion on these timescales and on length scales comparable to protein<br />

dimensions. We present here examinations by Neutron Spinecho Spectroscopy of the<br />

internal dynamics of the unfolded globular protein ribonuclease A under thermal stress<br />

and the protein alcohol dehydrogenase in equilibrium.

Amino acids found in living organisms occur almost exclusively as L-enantiomers and<br />

nucleic acids as D-enantiomers. The origins of this pervasive homochirality have never<br />

been explained satisfactorily. Because there is no obvious biochemical reason for choosing<br />

one enantiomer over the other, numerous physical and biochemical mechanisms<br />

have been invoked to explain the phenomenon. Chirality is a fundamental aspect of<br />

chemical biology, and is of central importance in pharmacology. We have analysed the<br />

L- and the D- enantiomer of an RNA molecule with the sequence (r(CUGGGCGG)x<br />

r(CCGCCUGG)) by X-ray crystallography and Raman spectroscopy. The combined<br />

results of these experiments reveal new insights about the nature of chirality in nucleic<br />

acids. X-ray crystallography is a technique in crystallography in which the pattern<br />

produced by the diffraction of X-rays through the closely spaced lattice of atoms in a<br />

crystal is recorded and then analyzed to reveal the nature of that lattice. Since electrons<br />

more or less surround atoms uniformly, it is possible to determine where atoms<br />

are located. This generally leads to an understanding of the material and molecular<br />

structure of a substance. This technique is widely used in chemistry and biochemistry<br />

to determine the structures of inorganic compounds, DNA/RNA, and proteins. X-ray<br />

diffraction is commonly carried out using single crystals of a material. Inelastic light<br />

scattering can reveal structural changes as well as changes in the electronic structure of<br />

the investigated system due to its coupling to electronic matrix elements. We use incident<br />

photons around 5 eV, where specific chromophores within the enantiomer exhibit<br />

a resonance. Spectra could be described by taking into account oscillation modes of the<br />

included bases. These modes are superpositions of modes originating from the different<br />

possible vibrations of atoms in the complex structured bases. We find that there is<br />

no sign of a structural difference in the spectra of L- and D-RNA. Nevertheless, small<br />

changes in the modes between the two forms enable us to calculate a Raman Difference<br />

Spectrum (RDS). The RDS is dependent on the incident photon energy. We suggest<br />

that electronic configuration between L- and D-RNA is different due to charge transfer<br />

effects that modify the electronic structure to which the Raman probe couples. We<br />

outline how to use this matrix element effect for the study of bio-organic matter.

Trotz der Verfügbarkeit von Antibiotika stellen Infektionskrankheiten eine zunehmende<br />

Bedrohung für die menschliche Gesundheit weltweit dar. Dieses rührt unter anderem<br />

von der Entstehung von Resistenzen her, die besonders auf den Mißbrauch von Antibiotika<br />

in der Tierzucht beruhen. In Gram-negativen Bakterien (u.a. Escherichia coli,<br />

Salmonella, Vibrio cholerae, Yersinia pestis) ist ein wichtiger Pathogenitätsfaktor auf<br />

der Außenseite der äußeren Membran lokalisiert, nämlich das Endotoxin (chemisch: Lipopolysaccharid,<br />

LPS). Dieses wirkt in geringen Dosen positiv für die menschliche Gesundheit,<br />

bei höheren Konzentrationen hingegen kann es das Sepsissyndrom auslösen,<br />

dem in Deutschland jährlich ca. 60000 Menschen zum Opfer fallen. Dies hängt unter anderem<br />

da<strong>mit</strong> zusammen, daß viele Antibiotika zwar die Bakterien töten können, aber<br />

nicht die freiwerdenden Pathogenitätsfaktoren wie LPS neutralisieren, die zu einem<br />

dramatischen Anstieg der Sekretion von Botenstoffen in Immunzellen führen.<br />

Ein neuer therapeutischer Ansatz ist die Verwendung antimikrobieller Peptide (AMP)<br />

auf der Basis von LPS-Bindedomänen von menschlichen und anderen LPS-Bindeproteinen<br />

wie Lactoferrin, Granulysin und anti-LPS-Faktor. Mit geeignet synthetisierten<br />

Peptiden konnten erhebliche Fortschritte in der Fähigkeit zur LPS-Neutralisation, gemessen<br />

als Reduktion der Produktion von Botenstoffen, erreicht werden [1,2]. Ein maßgebener<br />

Parameter für die Eigenschaft von LPS biologisch aktiv zu sein, ist der Typ<br />

seiner räumlichen Aggregatstruktur. Wir haben <strong>mit</strong> Synchrotronstrahlungs-Kleinwinkelbeugung<br />

gefunden, daß die Existsnz einer unilamellaren/nichtlamellaren dreidimensionalen<br />

Aggregatstruktur die Voraussetzung dafür ist, daß LPS hochaktiv ist [3]. In<br />

dem Maße, wie es durch AMP neutralisiert wird, wandelt sich seine räumliche Struktur<br />

in eine multilamellare Phase um. Dabei kommt der genauen Analyse dieser Phase<br />

(Zahl der Lamellen, Größe der Aggregate, Bindungsenergie der einzelnen Monomere<br />

in den Aggregaten) eine besondere Bedeutung zu, um Aussagen über die Neutralisierungsfähigkeit<br />

eines Peptides machen zu können. Zusammen <strong>mit</strong> der Verwendung<br />

anderer Techniken wie Titrationskalorimetrie und Gefrierbruch-Elektronenmikroskopie<br />

erlaubt uns die Analyse der LPS:Peptidkomplexe ein Verständnis der Prozesse auf molekularer<br />

Ebene, die zu der Reduzierung der toxischen Effekte der Pathogenitätsfaktoren<br />

führen.<br />

Biological membranes are characterized by a complex hierarchy of motions which is<br />

a fundamental prerequisite for their functionality on nature. Hydration of phospholipid<br />

bilayers and dynamics of water molecules at the membrane surfaces are of special<br />

importance in this context. The dynamical behavior in such membranes exhibits correlation<br />

times ranging from 10 −12 s with the motion of alkyl chain defects up to 1 s<br />

corresponding to collective excitations of the bilayer. Due to the huge spread in correlation<br />

time and length quite different experimental approaches have been employed<br />

to study membrane dynamics ranging from light microscopy, dynamic light scattering,<br />

NMR, ESR, QENS, NSE and MD simulations [1-5].<br />

To understand the dynamic behavior of water molecules in phospholipid membrane<br />

systems we have started to investigate the motions of water molecules in such systems<br />

by quasielastic neutron scattering. Rotational and translational motions of water<br />

molecules membrane bound and non-bound were described for phospholipids model<br />

membranes of DPPC below the main phase transition from fluid to gel state at different<br />

levels of low hydration [6]. Water diffusion constants below the bulk value of<br />

water were reported. We have extended these studies to phospholipids membranes at<br />

full hydration in the biological relevant fluid state. QENS measurements of alkyl chain<br />

deuterated DMPC at full hydration at different temperatures above and below the main<br />

phase transition were performed at the time-of-flight neutron spectrometer FOCUS at<br />

SINQ/PSI. The results show water diffusion within the phospholipids membranes similar<br />

to the diffusion of bulk water. The results and the corresponding measurements<br />

will be presented and discussed.<br />

News from the crystallographic structure of sea urchin spines of<br />

Heterocentrotus mammillatus<br />

Sea urchin spines consisting of high magnesian calcite are considered single crystals<br />

with the c-axis of calcite oriented parallel to the long spicule axis. As a biogenic carbonate<br />

mineral with a content of about 0.1 weight% proteins, an abnormal conchoidal<br />

fracture as compared to calcite and their sponge like interior structure, they have been<br />

attracting the interest of crystallographers [1,2,3]. We investigated spines of sea urchin<br />

Heterocentrotus mammillatus by powder diffraction and single crystal methods like<br />

the ordinary Laue technique on a Mo x-ray source and the high energy focussing Laue<br />

technique at energies of up to 65 KeV. For the detection of the single crystal diffraction<br />

patterns an image plate system was used. Chemically, spines were analysed by ICP<br />

Emission Spectroscopy. For powder diffraction measurements material from the outer<br />

dense shell of the spines and the inner sponge like calcitic stucture were prepared. The<br />

Mg content of the two radially separated regions of the spines is 9.4(4) and 7.6(4).<br />

Powder data from the inner part high magnesium calcite shows a superstructure with<br />

a modulation in [104] direction. Diffractograms from the shell material do not show<br />

superstructure reflections. Even so the diffractograms of the inner part material look<br />

at a first glance like those from ordinary high magnesian calcite, Rietveld fits within<br />

the R-3c model and a statistical Ca/Mg distribution are not satisfactory. To explain<br />

the superstructure, possible models for the symmetry of the biogenic calcitic material<br />

will be discussed and tested by Rietveld refinements. Namely a modified “inverse”<br />

µ-model according to Wenk et al. [4] with simultaneous ordering of cations and distortions<br />

in the carbonate groups and a tentative monoclinic variant of high magnesian<br />

calcite crystallised in C2/c with cation ordering in [104] sheets (in original calcite cell<br />

R-3c) together with distortions of the carbonate groups. Laue diffractograms with Mo<br />

radiation confirm the single crystalline nature previously reported, even so the term<br />

single crystal must be questioned in the light of the powder diffraction data. Diffuse<br />

scattering is observed in transmission and the variation of the Laue patterns after soaking<br />

samples in water and drying them at temperatures from 60 ◦ C up to 300 ◦ C were<br />

studied. Laue diffractograms measured with high energy in transmission nondestructively<br />

reveal the mosaicity of the spines as a function of position along the spicule axis.<br />

A characteristic of the interior of cells is the high total concentration of macromolecules.<br />

Such media are termed crowded rather than concentrated since no single<br />

macromolecular species occurs at high concentration. But taken together they occupy<br />

a signifcant fraction (20-30 %) of the total volume. This affects protein diffusion and<br />

protein association equilibria through excluded volume effects (highly non-ideal solutions).<br />

The goal of our project is to understand the effect of protein-protein interactions<br />

on molecular diffusion at high concentration. Our model of crowding in biological cells<br />

is hemoglobin diffusion inside erythrocytes. Using a combination of neutron spin echo<br />

and backscattering spectroscopy with low angle scattering, we analyse the effects of<br />

direct interactions and hydrodynamic interactions. Neutrons scattering allows probing<br />

molecular diffusion on a microscopic scale at high Q. The protein diffusion coefficients<br />

increase with decreasing Q indicating a cross-over from short-time self-diffusion to<br />

collective diffusion. Myoglobin solutions were investigated at various protein concentrations<br />

as well as hemoglobin diffusion in blood cells.

The comparison of X-ray fluorescence elemental maps with biological structures in<br />

histological slices requires often the scanning of large areas in the millimetre range,<br />

but with microscopic resolution. To test whether large two-dimensional scans can<br />

be performed in an appropriate time with sufficient statistics we investigated normal<br />

liver tissue and liver tissue from patients with genetically disturbed iron metabolism<br />

(haemochromatosis, HC) in a continuous scanning mode by microscopic Synchrotron<br />

radiation induced X-ray fluorescence analysis (micro-SRXRF). Methods: micro-SRXRF<br />

measurements were performed at beamline L of DORIS III storage ring at HASY-<br />

LAB/DESY in Hamburg. Slices of 10 µm thickness - imbedded in paraffin - were<br />

fixed on trace element free Ultralene foil for investigation. The white beam of the<br />

bending magnet was monochromatized by a double multilayer monochromator (NiC).<br />

The energy of the incoming beam was set to 17.5 keV for all measurements, and the<br />

monochromatic X-ray beam was focused by a polycapillary half-lens to a cross section<br />

of 15 µm providing a flux of 10 11 photons/s. A Silicon multi-cathode X-ray Spectrometer<br />

VORTEX-EX (Radiant Detector Technologies) was employed in combination with<br />

a CANBERRA 2060 digital pulse processor. The system provided an excellent energy<br />

resolution of 160 eV (5.8 keV) for all count rates up to 80 000 cts/s. Several samples<br />

were scanned with 15 µm step size and 1 s sample time per pixel over different area<br />

sizes ranging up to 3 x 3 mm 2 (40000 points, 11 h total scanning time). Element concentrations<br />

are calculated with a Fundamental Parameter code from normalized line<br />

intensities by comparison to an external reference sample (sputtered Ge film). Results:<br />

In normal liver tissue, after fixation and imbedding in paraffin, mean Fe, Cu and Zn<br />

concentrations were 152 ± 54, 20.1 ± 4.3 and 88.9 ± 19.5 µg/g sample weight, respectively.<br />

No substantial, characteristic differences in their distribution were found<br />

in the two-dimensional scans. In slices from patients with HC mean Fe, Cu and Zn<br />

concentrations were 1102 ± 53.9, 35.9 ± 14.6 and 27.2 ± 6.7 µg/g sample weight,<br />

respectively. Additionally, a significant decrease in phosphorus and sulphur concentrations<br />

existed. The increased Cu concentration around cirrhotic regenerations nodules<br />

is mostly associated with a lymphocytic infiltration in this region. Analyzing Fe in<br />

different sample regions reveals negative dependencies between Fe and Cu, Cu and Zn,<br />

but a positive dependence between Fe and Zn. Conclusion: In the continuous scanning<br />

mode elemental distribution in a near histological resolution (20 x light microscope)<br />

can be achieved in due time providing additional metabolic features.

Background: The EMBL-Hamburg Outstation operates five synchrotron radiation<br />

(SR) beamlines for applications in Macromolecular Crystallography (MX), one for<br />

Small Angle X-ray Scattering of Biological samples (BioSAXS) and one beamline for<br />

X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy of Biological samples (BioXAS) at the DORIS-III storage<br />

ring from DESY. During 2000-05, more than 1500 external projects from research<br />

groups across the world (about 85 % from Europe) have been carried out at the EMBL-<br />

Hamburg facilities. In addition, one of the largest high-throughput crystallization facilities<br />

is been commissioned at present and will become externally available later in<br />

2006.<br />

Project: The European Molecular Biology Laboratory has recently made a proposal<br />

for an Integrated Life Science Centre at PETRA-III. It reflects the expressed needs by<br />

a large number of research groups from across Europe, requesting opportunities for the<br />

combined use or state-of-the-art SR beamlines and their integration into joint sample<br />

preparation and on-line data processing facilities. The proposed centre includes, at<br />

present: Two MX beamlines; the first one will be tuned for microfocusing to allow<br />

testing and data acquisition of extremely small crystals of biological macromolecules;<br />

the second one will be tuned for applications over a large energy range to allow data<br />

acquisition at the absorption edges of a broad range of different elements to allow experimental<br />

phase determination, and specific applications, such as structures at ultrahigh<br />

resolution, that require specific SR energy regimes. One BioSAXS beamline for<br />

large scale shape and quaternary structure analysis of individual macromolecules and<br />

functional complexes and for cutting edge applications such as ultra-fast kinetic studies.<br />

A joint sample preparation area and data processing area, allowing to provide a<br />

complete pipeline for structural biology experiments using synchrotron radiation. The<br />

recently built high-throughput crystallization facility will be integrated into this area.<br />

The Integrated Life Science Centre will be located at the last two straight sections<br />

at PETRA-III. The close proxi<strong>mit</strong>y of tits components will allow to establish direct<br />

pipelines ranging from the preparation and characterization of samples, their transfer<br />

to SR beamlines, X-ray data acquisition and on-line data processing and interpretation,<br />

with options for remote experiment monitoring and operation. All endstations will be<br />

equipped with the state-of-the-art instruments to provide a user-friendly and highly<br />

automated experiment environment, per<strong>mit</strong>ting a high-throughput of experiments at<br />

the future PETRA-III beamlines. Our proposal has been approved and supported by<br />

two different reviewing panels and formally secured financial support is expected soon.

Wie kontrollieren thermische Gleichgewichtsfluktuationen biologische Reaktionen?<br />

Biologische Makromoleküle, wie z.B. Proteine die aus mehreren tausend Atomen bestehen,<br />

weisen eine strukturelle Komplexität auf, die sich auch in dynamischen Eigenschaften<br />

dieser Moleküle widerspiegelt. Insbesondere thermische Gleichgewichtsfluktuationen<br />

im Piko- und Nanosekunden Zeitfenster sind essentiell um lokale Energiebarrieren<br />

in der komplexen Energielandschaft der Biomoleküle zu überwinden. Diese Eigenschaften<br />

bestimmen direkt die Effizienz und Geschwindigkeit biokatalytischer Prozesse<br />

[1, 2]. Darüber hinaus tragen Strukturfluktuationen in diesem Zeitfenster wesentlich<br />

zur konformellen Entropie der Biomoleküle bei. Im Falle von Protein-Liganden oder<br />

Protein-Protein Bindungen, aber auch im Falle von Proteinfaltungsprozessen spielt die<br />

Entropieänderung häufig eine zentrale Rolle [2, 3]. Eine der wichtigsten Methoden zur<br />

Detektion und Charakterisierung dieser Strukturfluktuationen in Biomolekülen stellt<br />

die quasielastische Neutronenstreuung (QENS) dar (siehe Abb. 1). Das strategische<br />

Ziel unserer Studien ist es, die dynamischen und die biologisch relevanten Parameter<br />

unter möglichst identischen Probenbedingungen zu messen. Insbesondere Proteinlösungen<br />

stellen dabei eine methodische Herausforderung für Neutronenstreutechniken dar,<br />

da der Streubeitrag des Solvens (D2O) selbst bei hochkonzentrierten Lösungen sehr<br />

hoch ist (∼ 80 %). Es wird anhand einiger Fallstudien demonstriert, welche Art von<br />

Strukturfluktuationen die biologischen Prozesse kontrollieren.<br />

Interaction of long side chains Quinones and Hydroquinones with Model<br />

Membranes.<br />

Quinones and hydroquinones present some biological activity. Generally speaking not<br />

much is known about and it is still not clear the relationship between doses and their<br />

effects. Moreover, the mechanism of action also is still speculative. Here we present<br />

the initial part of our study, i.e. the interaction of these compounds with model<br />

membranes. Two compounds were synthesized with side chains matching the acyl<br />

chain lenght of lipids forming model membranes. We present results from mixtures of<br />

these compounds with POPC, a zwitterionic lipid, using polarizing optical microscopy<br />

(POM) and X-ray scattering obtained simultaneously from small and wide angles at the<br />

soft condensed matter beam line A2 from HASYLAB at DESY. For each sample studied<br />

a temperature scan was carried out at typically 1-2 ◦ C/min. Due to the hydrophobicity<br />

of these compounds, they remain crystalline (needles) in water. Therefore mixtures<br />

of them with lipids could not be prepared by direct missing, but rather requiring a<br />

chloroform solution of both components, followed by solvent evaporation and posterior<br />

direct hydration. X-ray scattering near room temperature show patterns containing<br />

characteristics of lipid bilayers superimposed to typical patterns from crystals. It seems<br />

that at room temperature we have two phases, a solid crystal (quinone or hydroquinone)<br />

and a lipid liquid crystalline. Interestingly, they do not separate easily. Heating these<br />

samples to relatively high temperatures causes the melting of the crystals (above ca.<br />

50 ◦ C, but depending on the sample composition). Cooling at 1-2 ◦ C/min does not<br />

produce an X-ray pattern of a two mixed phases system. However the pattern can be<br />

seen in the following day. The phase transitions and the mixing of phases are being<br />

investigated in more detail and shall be reported.

Small-Angle X-Ray Scattering of Lipopolysaccharide-Peptide aggregates<br />

Bacterial endotoxin (Lipopolysaccharide, LPS) is the major component of the outer<br />

leaflet of the outer membrane in Gram-negative bacteria. It is composed of a hydrophobic<br />

moiety called lipid A and a hydrophilic saccharide part composed of different sugars,<br />

depending on the bacterial species. During cell division or cell death, LPS can<br />

be released from the membrane causing a variety of biological effects. The reaction<br />

may be beneficial at low concentrations, but can lead to patho-physiological effects at<br />

high concentrations like septic shock syndrome and multiorgan failure. Due to this fact,<br />

treatment of bacterial infections with conventional antibiotics without inactivating LPS<br />

has to be replaced by a medication that kills the bacteria and neutralizes LPS. One<br />

possible strategy for the development of new drugs is the use of antimicrobial peptides,<br />

which are derived from the binding epitopes of natural antimicrobial proteins.<br />

We used the endotoxin-binding protein of the horse-shoe crab Limulus polyphemus to<br />

synthesize peptides and tested them for their antimicrobial and endotoxin-neutralizing<br />

properties.<br />

LPS, as an amphipathic molecule, forms in aqueous solution three-dimensional aggregates.<br />

The three-dimensional aggregate structure was investigated using small-angle<br />

x-ray scattering. It was found that the biologically active form of the LPS molecules<br />

are cubic or unilamellar structures. We found that the best peptides for neutralizing<br />

LPS lead to a change in the LPS aggregate structure, from a cubic to a multilamellar<br />

arrangement of the molecules.<br />

Several other techniques are used to investigate the reaction of these peptides with<br />

the LPS, like freeze-fracture electron microscopy and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy<br />

to analyse the gel to liquid crystalline phase transition of the acyl chains<br />

of the LPS and the influence of the peptides. Complementary, isothermal titration<br />

calorimetry measurements were performed to get informations about the binding stoichiometry<br />

and binding enthalpies. Our results should lead to a better understanding of<br />

the mechanism of LPS neutralizing and lead to the estimation of necessary properties<br />

of peptides, which effectively kill bacteria and neutralize LPS.

Lysozyme and Staphylococcal Nuclease solutions studied by small-angle xray<br />

scattering<br />

Ever since x-rays were employed for structure determination, small-angle x-ray scattering<br />

(SAXS) has retained its unique position among methods that allow to investigate<br />

structure on an Angstrom length scale. It is left with no competition when structure<br />

of partially or completely disordered particles is sought and its major advantage is the<br />

feasibility of in situ measurements, e.g., on protein molecules dissolved in their natural,<br />

aqueous environment at low concentration.<br />

The biological activity, thermodynamic stability along with the physical and chemical<br />

properties of proteins are strongly influenced by the structure of their aqueous microenvironment.<br />

Hence, understanding the effects of various types of cosolvents typical for<br />

cellular conditions on the structure and dynamics of proteins is crucial for a deeper<br />

insight into protein stability, folding, aggregation and fibrillation processes. The latter<br />

play an important role in many conformational diseases, such as Alzheimer, Huntington,<br />

Creutzfeldt-Jakob, and Parkinson. It was shown that the latter processes are in<br />

fact markedly influenced by the type and concentration of cosolvents.<br />

As a part of the human immune system, lysozyme breaks carbohydrate chains, destroying<br />

the structural integrity of bacteria cell wall and leading them to burst under their<br />

high internal osmotic pressure. The influence of the cosolvents tetrafluoroethylene,<br />

sodium chloride, and glycerol on the native state structure of lysozyme was studied using<br />

SAXS measurements on aqueous solutions of lysozyme at beamline BL9 of DELTA<br />

synchrotron, University of Dortmund. A wide range of concentrations of pure lysozyme<br />

as well as lysozyme in the presence of cosolvents, typical for conditions where unfolding<br />

sets in, was probed. For the higher concentrated samples, information about the intermolecular<br />

interaction potential could be obtained from analysis of the intermolecular<br />

structure factor.<br />

The biological function of staphylococcal nuclease is to catalyze the hydrolysis of the<br />

phosphate backbone of DNA and RNA. Unlike lysozyme, this protein can fold and<br />

unfold reversibly due to the lack of disulfide bonds or free sulfhydryl groups. This<br />

peculiarity opens up the possibility to studying the intermediate states of unfolding<br />

next to its native and denaturated state by applying a reversible condition that induces<br />

unfolding or refolding, such as temperature or pressure. For this reason, SAXS<br />

measurements were also performed on staphylococcal nuclease in a wide pressure and<br />

temperature range in the absence and presence of various cosolvents, using a home built<br />

high pressure cell, and subsequently analysis of the tertiary structure of the different<br />

conformational states was performed.

In this overview the concept of the complementary use of radiotracers produced with<br />

neutrons at the reactor of the Hahn-Meitner-Institut and photons produced at the synchrotron<br />

facilities BESSY and HASYLAB for 2D and 3D chemical imaging of metaland<br />

metalloid-containing proteins in specific tissues - in particular in the central nervous<br />

system - is discussed. Metals and metalloids are known to be involved in various<br />

cerebral metabolic processes. The determination of their spatial distribution within<br />

the brain in health and disease may help to identify their specific sites of action and<br />

to elucidate their biological roles [1]. Possibilities and li<strong>mit</strong>s of the synchrotron techniques<br />

are shown in relation to the application of radiotracers used for specific labeling<br />

of those metal- and metalloid containing proteins, which are then detectable, by autoradiography.<br />

Synchrotron radiation X-ray fluorescence analysis (SRXRF) allows the determination<br />

of the metal distribution in cryosections of tissues while synchrotron radiation-based<br />

Fourier transform infrared (SRFTIR) spectromicroscopy may provide information on<br />

the chemical composition of the sections of interest. These methods can therefore be<br />

used as valuable tools in studies on the role of metalloproteins in health and disease.<br />

The development of superior 3D imaging methods was an advance for histological<br />

structural analyses. Tomography, specifically X-ray tomography, is a 3D imaging<br />

method with the advantage to be non-destructive. In all cases, the use of synchrotron<br />

radiation offers the high spatial resolution necessary for the investigation of brain tissue.<br />

The hierarchical structure of single starch granules was investigated using scanning<br />

X-ray microdiffraction. Combined small- and wide-angle scattering experiments at the<br />

1 µm level allowed spatially resolved investigation of the amylopectin microstructure<br />

and the lamellar superstructure at multiple length scales in fully hydrated potato granules<br />

of 50-100 µm diameter. The obtained fiber diffraction patterns showed changes<br />

in both orientation and intensity of characteristic reflections, which could be modeled<br />

by a ellipsoidal alignment of the lamellar structures around an eccentric origin. Investigation<br />

of starch granules from plants with selectively altered enzyme distribution in<br />

starch synthesis showed significant changes in crystallinity and lamellar distance. A<br />

kinetic study of the hydration process in dried starch granules suggests different time<br />

constants for the hydration of crystalline and amorphous regions.

The uprising resistance of pathogenic bacteria is a severe problem in health care. To<br />

develop new antibiotic treatment, naturally occurring antimicrobial peptides and synthetic<br />

derivates might become potent agents. These peptides have a direct physical<br />

impact on the membranes of their target cells and display selectivity for bacteria and<br />

fungi in contrast to mammalian cells. In our work we tested the antibacterial activity<br />

of the synthetic peptide NK-CS and derivatives thereof against E. coli (Gram negative)<br />

and S. carnosus (Gram positive) bacteria as well as the hemolytic properties against<br />

human erythrocytes to determine the selectivity of the peptides. In parallel we investigated<br />

the interaction of the peptides with different model membranes, mimicking<br />

bacterial and human membranes, by small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). The combination<br />

of these techniques gives an indication of the structure-function relationship<br />

of this peptide-lipid-system.<br />

Among the tested peptide, NK-CS was found to be the most potent antimicrobial peptide,<br />

while all derivatives showed less antibacterial selectivity and activity. Structural<br />

characterization of the interaction between the peptides and different model membranes<br />

revealed that the peptides showed no influence on phosphatidylcholine lipids,<br />

representing the membrane of erythrocytes, but for all tested peptides the inverse<br />

hexagonal phase transition of phosphatidylethanolamine lipids, standing for the main<br />

component of the bacterial membrane of E. coli, was significantly altered in a specific<br />

manner which can be correlated with the activity of the peptides. This phase transition<br />

temperature was increased by the peptides promoting a positive curvature of the<br />

membranes eventually leading to the disruption of the model membranes.

Biological X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy in the 21st Century: Towards<br />

automated Data-Collection and Analysis<br />

Wolfram Meyer-Klaucke 1<br />

1 EMBL Hamburg, Notkestr. 85, 22603 Hamburg, Germany<br />

X-ray absorption spectroscopy allows the element specific characterization of metal<br />

sites in biological systems, yielding information about the types and distances of coordinating<br />

ligands as well as the oxidation state of the metal center. For multinuclear<br />

proteins, the metalmetal distance can also be determined. In fact, the method can<br />

be performed on samples in every state, including solutions and intact tissue. Energy<br />

dependent measurements of the absorption coefficient require a tunable X-ray<br />

source. Ideally, this is a synchrotron beamline equipped with a monochromator. The<br />

tremendous improvements in this field allow for a high degree of automation during<br />

the measurement. Increasingly, the data analysis becomes the bottle-neck. Recently,<br />

the first packages for automated data-reduction became available[1]. On the way is the<br />

automatic determination of metal binding motifs.<br />

These options open the window towards high-throughput biological XAS. Some recent<br />

ex-amples benefiting from these developments will be discussed in the second part of<br />

the presen-tation, focusing on the metal specificity in the metallo-beta lactamase superfamily[2]<br />

and pro-teins involved in metal regulation[3].<br />

Neutron Capture Therapy NCT is an indirect radiation therapy of cancer, which inactivates<br />

tumors by secondary products evolving from an incorporated target upon<br />

specific absorption of external radiation. Early trials with Boron (B-NCT) were li<strong>mit</strong>ed<br />

by the low physiological target concentration (1 mM) and the moderate cross<br />

section of 3843 barn. The change to 157 Gd with 254,000 barn cross section and highly<br />

concentrated biocompatible Gd-targets improves the method by 3 orders (Fig.1a). The<br />

Lanthanide-complex is applied in a key-formulation, which breaks the blood-brain barrier<br />

BBB reversibly, as in our synchrotron X-ray therapy project with Lu-Gd complexes<br />

at ESRF-ID17. The local deposition of the gamma photons arising after neutron capture<br />

is achived by a second Lanthanide (Er/Lu), which works as an internal radiation<br />

enhancer (gamma - Auger electron conversion, Fig.1b). The study is done with cold<br />

and thermal neutrons at the ILL- D22 and Neutrograph instruments. The biological<br />

tests are done in tight collaboration between ILL, ESRF with BioMedical Facility BMF.<br />

from an incorporated target upon specific<br />

absorption of therapeutic radiation, which is depicted<br />

as photon activation therapy PAT by Kedge<br />

target absorption of synchrotron radiation<br />

(fig.1). We apply biocompatible heavy metal<br />

complexes of Lanthanides, e.g. Gadolinium- to<br />

Lutetium-DTPA in target-nanoparticles and in<br />

key-formulations breaking the blood-brain barrier<br />

(BBB). The novel cancer therapy is optimised<br />

towards minmal body dose Qb (demage)<br />

at maximal healing dose Qt, specifically absorbed<br />

at the local target material. With our materials<br />

using the heaviest Lanthanide Lutetium (EK = 63.31 keV) the relative therapeutic<br />

absorption Atb = Qt/Qb can be up to 10 %, as calculated for an 1 cm target area<br />

covering a brain tumor in a human head (12 cm path); with Gadolinium an effect of<br />

Atb=6.3 % is possible at EK = 50.24 keV. This lead to the imaging- therapy postulate<br />

for indirect radiation therapy: “An effective (adjuvant) cancer therapy target should<br />

be visible by in vivo contrast imaging (therapeutic imaging).” In animal tests with rats<br />

Supported lipid bilayer systems serve as simple model for the much more complex<br />

biological counterparts, and are also interesting components for biotechnological applications,<br />

for example as bio-functionalized solid surfaces. We used X-ray refectivity to<br />

probe the structure of two-component lipid mixtures with varied surface charges, both<br />

in the fluid and gel phase, deposited on silicon by vesicle fusion. We investigated the<br />

effect of the bilayer charge on the water spacing between bilayer and silicon, as well<br />

as the detailed profile of mixed two-component bilayers. For this purpose, refectivity<br />

signal above background has been measured up to qz = 0.6 ˚A −1 in the fluid phase<br />

and qz = 0.7 ˚A −1 in the gel phase of the bilayers, using synchrotron radiation, while a<br />

range of at least qz = 0.3 ˚A −1 and qz = 0.35 ˚A −1 was exploitable in-house. We show<br />

that the resolution obtained in the density profile across the bilayer is high enough to<br />

distinguish two headgroup maxima in the profile if the sample is in the phase coexistence<br />

regime. The water layer between the bilayer and silicon is found to depend on<br />

the lipid surface charge density.

We present an automated crystal structure determination platform, Auto-Rickshaw.<br />

It contains several distinct computer coded decision-makers which invoke a number<br />

of macromolecular crystallographic software suites at different stages in the structure<br />

determination process. A large number of structure solution paths are encoded in<br />

the system and the optimal path is selected by the decision-makers as the structure<br />

solution evolves. The primary aim of the pipeline is to validate the crystallographic<br />

experiment at the synchrotron site while the crystal is still at or near the beamline.<br />

Thus, the system has been optimized for speed, so that typically within a few minutes<br />

the answer is provided whether the collected data will be of sufficient quality to allow<br />

successful structure determination. The platform has been installed on a 16-processor<br />

Linux cluster. Since January 2005, it is remotely accessible to the beamline users via a<br />

web-server. An overview of the Auto-Rickshaw pipeline with its design, functionality,<br />

some examples and the way this platform is used as a feedback system for X-ray data<br />

collection or validation of an X-ray experiment, will be presented.

Onchocerciasis or river-blindness is a debilitating parasitic disease caused by the filarial<br />

worm, Onchocerca volvulus. Chemotherapeutic approaches to control parasite<br />

transmission and to treat onchocerciasis rely on drugs that only kill microfilariae and<br />

infectious larvae but not the adult parasites. So far this necessitates the continuous<br />

use of these microfilaricides until the adult worms die. Therefore, the development<br />

of drugs that also effectively kill the adult worms would greatly support the control<br />

and treatment of O. volvulus infections [1]. Furthermore, the potential development<br />

of drug-resistant strains of the nematode also demands the identification of alternative<br />

drug candidates to control the disease [2].<br />

The long-term survival of the parasites in the host is remarkable and has initiated a<br />

search for parasite-derived molecules that are involved in the modulation of the host<br />

immune system. The glutathione-dependent prostaglandin D synthase (Ov-GST1)<br />

from O. volvulus is strongly in involved in this and belongs to the sigma class of<br />

the glutathione S-transferase (GST) family. It is located directly at the parasite-host<br />

interface. The data were collected at DESY/HASYLAB in Hamburg using synchrotron<br />

radiation. We analysed the three-dimensional structure of the enzyme complexed with<br />

glutathione at 2.0 ˚A. The molecular architecture of the substrate binding site reveals<br />

significant differences to the vertebrate orthologs from human and rat.<br />

The putative substrate binding mode and its catalytic mechanism for the specific isomerization<br />

from PGH2 to PGD2 is proposed based on the structural insights. Knowing<br />

the three-dimensional shape and chemical nature of the enzyme binding pocket will aid<br />

in the discovery and design of novel anti-filarial compounds.<br />

Artificial tissues are being increasingly used in the replacement of damaged structural<br />

parts of the body. These artificial structures do not only require appropriated mechanical<br />

properties, but also biocompatibility and hemostatic properties. Therefore,<br />

the emulation of natural scaffolds represents an interesting possibility to combine good<br />

mechanical properties with biocompatibility.<br />

Natural extracellular skeletons often consist of ordered fibrous composites, which are<br />

hierarchically arranged in twisted plywoods structures. Generally, composite materials<br />

contain significant residual stresses due to differences in the physical properties<br />

of matrix and reinforcement. Also biological composites are, therefore, expected to<br />

have residual stresses, which are supposedly correlated to their formation process and<br />

function.<br />

The aim of these investigations is a first time characterization of the residual stress<br />

state in biocomposites, particularly in the cuticle of a lobster Homarus americanus,<br />

which is a hierarchically organized natural material. The structure of the exoskeleton<br />

and its residual stress state are revealed by electron microscopy and synchrotron X-ray<br />

diffraction studies.

Prion proteins are involved in a group of fatal neurodegenerative diseases including<br />

bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) in cattle and Creutzfeld-Jakob disease (CJD)<br />

in humans. The posttranslational conversion of the prion protein from its normal cellular<br />

isoform (PrPC) into its misfolded infectious state (PrPSc), which accumulates in<br />

the central nervous system, is considered to act as a key event during the course of<br />

disease. However, the physiological functions of the cellular prion protein as well as<br />

the pathogenesis of neuronal cell death in prion diseases remain still enigmatic. Consequently,<br />

the detailed structural investigation of the conversion and aggregation process<br />

is required to elucidate the pathogenesis of prion diseases and to develop promising<br />

therapies. Since increased levels of oxidative stress have been linked to prion diseases,<br />

we investigated the metal-induced oxidation of human PrP (90-231) as well as of mouse<br />

PrP (89-230). A novel in vitro conversion assay based on aerobic incubation of PrP in<br />

the presence of elemental, redox-active metal pellets at pH 5 was established, resulting<br />

in aggregation of highly β-sheeted prion proteins. We show for the first time that<br />

discrete oligomeric species of elongated shape, approx. 25mers, 80mers, and 100mers,<br />

are formed on the pathway of oxidative PrP aggregation, which are well characterized<br />

regarding shape and size using small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) techniques.<br />

Considering that small oligomers of highly similar size have recently been reported<br />

to show the highest specific infectivity within TSE-infected brain tissues of hamsters,<br />

the novel oligomers observed in this study are interesting candidates as agent causing<br />

neurodegenerative and/or self-propagating effects. Moreover, extended X-ray absorption<br />

fine structure (EXAFS) measurements revealed that the generated high molecular<br />

mass aggregates coordinate Cu(II) and Zn(II) ions in a specific geometry, which indicates<br />

a structural influence of the metal ions during aggregate formation. Specific<br />

copper binding sites have been observed several fold within the N-terminal part of prion<br />

proteins. However, mammalian and avian prion proteins, which are not able to undergo<br />

the conversion process into an infectious isoform, have a considerably different<br />

N-terminal copper coordination, as it is additionally shown by comparative EXAFS<br />

analysis. These results provide new insights into the prion protein structure-function<br />

relationship and into the conversion process of PrP.

Small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) is a versatile tool for structural investigation of<br />

biological molecules in solution, and became a rapidly growing field of research during<br />

the last years. In contrast with other methods in structural biology SAXS allows<br />

to study the overall structure of native particles in solutions and analyze structural<br />

changes in response to variations in external conditions such as temperature, pH etc.<br />

The BioSAXS station X33 at the EMBL Hamburg Outstation was subsequently upgraded<br />

to optimize performance for the scattering studies of macromolecular solutions.<br />

This upgrade includes changes in all components of the station, from major optical<br />

parts to the experimental stage and detector system. This recent technical upgrade of<br />

the BioSAXS station together with advantages in data analysis significantly enhanced<br />

resolution and reliability of structural models provided by the technique. The available<br />

software packages on the BioSAXS station cover all steps in data analysis ranging<br />

from semi-automatic data reduction, data analysis such as Guinier-approximation<br />

(PRIMUS) and indirect Fourier transformation (GNOM) up the ab inito low resolution<br />

model building (DAMMIN and GASBOR). Ab initio model building technique as well<br />

as rigid body modeling allows one to analyze the overall shape of the macromolecule<br />

based only on the scattering data, and taking advantage of already available high<br />

or low resolution structures. Semi-automatic modeling up to completely automatic<br />

rigid body modeling using distance constrains are possible with our present software<br />

packages (DAMMIN, GASBOR, MASSHA, SASREF and BUNCH). This software is<br />

freely available for the academic user community (ATSAS program suite) and widely<br />

used. The new BioSAXS beamline for Petra III will adequately exploit the exceptionally<br />

high brilliance of the Petra-III source to further improve the efficiency of structural<br />

analysis using the small-angle scattering technique accompanying new and fast analysis<br />

methods developed at the EMBL. The BioSAXS station will share the infrastructure<br />

for biological sample preparation and handling with the other EMBL beamlines and<br />

will lead towards a unique environment for cutting edge research and for large scale<br />

analysis of biological macromolecules in combined protein crystallographic - SAXS<br />

studies.<br />

Digital in-line holography has been proven to be a highly useful microscopy technique<br />

that works without lenses and at the same time provides intrinsic three dimensional<br />

information [1-3]. The principle of such a holographic microscope goes back to the initial<br />

idea of D. Gabor of a ” new microscopic principle“ [4]. In this concept, coherent<br />

radiation is scattered by an object and its interference with the unscattered wavefront<br />

creates a diffraction pattern. As the unscattered background wave acts as reference,<br />

each of these holograms intrinsically contains three dimensional information about the<br />

investigated object. Both optically and nowadays digitally the scattering pattern can<br />

be reconstructed and information about the investigated object retrieved in real space<br />

[1]. In order to enhance the resolution of digital in-line holography it is straightforward<br />

to consider a decrease of the wavelength. Therefore, we use photons in the XUV<br />

region from 90 eV to about 350 eV, which includes the water window [5,6]. The feasibility<br />

to use this wavelength range for coherent scattering experiments has previously<br />

been proven [7,8,9]. We present results on XUV digital in-line holography using the<br />

classical Gabor geometry with a highly divergent beam. As the production of highly<br />

divergent XUV beams is a major challenge, possibilities and new point source designs<br />

are shown that help to successfully suppress direct beam transmission in order to avoid<br />

a beam block. To characterize the imaging properties, test samples with known properties<br />

as polymer beads and lithographic structures were used to analyze resolution and<br />

obtainable contrast. Additionally we show images of fibroblast cells to discuss future<br />

biological perspectives of the technique. In order to make this new imaging technique<br />

available to other users, the design of an experimental endstation exclusively dedicated<br />

to holographic imaging will be described [10].<br />

For the delivery of drugs, the use of nanoparticles as carriers has been described as<br />

a promising approach. The transport of drugs to a single target and the protection<br />

from premature degradation allows to reduce dosis and side effects. Here, we prepared<br />

nanoparticles as carriers for the model drug thioflavin T that bind Alzheimers disease<br />

related fibrillar amyloid β-peptides (Aβ) in the brain. These polymer colloids are<br />

composed of a polystyrene core and a degradable PBCA [poly(butyl-2-cyanoacrylate)]<br />

shell with a diameter of 90-150 nm as shown by photon correlation spectroscopy.<br />

The enzymatic degradation of core-shell nanoparticles, as required in vivo, was shown<br />

after their treatment with porcine liver esterase, a non-specific esterase, and basic/acidic<br />

hydrolysis in vitro. Shells of nanoparticles were dose-dependently degraded while their<br />

polystyrene cores remained intact. Furthermore, we found a simple method with a satisfying<br />

accuracy for the determination of particle diameters based on their wavelengthdependent<br />

absorption. Additionally, we applied static and dynamic light scattering as<br />

useful tools to monitor the particle diameters during enzymatic degradation.<br />

Furthermore, we compare and verify our results by using small-angle neutron scattering.<br />

We measured the degradation-dependent changes in the neutron scattering density<br />

profile at the facilities of IBR-2 (Dubna, Russia) and BNC (Budapest, Hungary).<br />

The Use of Longer X-ray Wavelengths in Macromolecular Crystallography<br />

The use of longer X-ray wavelengths (λ = 1.5-3.0 ˚A) in macromolecular crystallography<br />

has over the past few years become a tool for phase determination using the anomalous<br />

signal derived from the natively present sulfur and/or phosphorus atoms. In order<br />

to extract the maximum possible information contained in the data, it is essential,<br />

however, to apply a proper scaling protocol to the data. The best protocols in this<br />

respect take absorption into account implicitly. Nevertheless, there seems to be an<br />

optimal wavelength at which the anomalous signal-to-noise ratio is highest. In an<br />

extensive examination of 75 diffraction data sets collected at different wavelengths<br />

from ten different protein and DNA crystal systems, it was found that irrespective of<br />

the anomalously scattering substructure present, this optimal wavelength was around<br />

2.0-2.1 ˚A.<br />

A further use of a well measured long wavelength data set is in the unequivocal<br />

definition of the anomalously scattering substructure. Although a large percentage of<br />

proteins are crystallized in the presence of ions derived e.g. from NaCl, KCl, Na2SO4<br />

and Na3PO4 only about 10-15 % of all PDB entries contain such ions as part of the<br />

structure coordinates. In order to further investigate this seeming contradiction, we<br />

examined the substructures of 23 different protein crystals using a wavelength of λ =<br />

2.0 ˚A. In all but two of the cases, we were able to identify additionally bound ions<br />

for these proteins. Our findings thus suggest that a data set collected at a longer<br />

wavelength appears to be essential in order to completely describe a protein structure.

Towards automated BioXAS<br />

Automation of XAS data reduction and analysis is essential to cope with high-throughput<br />

data collection becoming available at an increasing number of synchrotron radiation<br />

centers. Recently, a flexible script called Kemp has been developed and introduced<br />

at the XAS beamline at EMBL Hamburg. It automatically processes fluorescence<br />

XAS data. The pipeline includes dead time correction, energy calibration, selection of<br />

fluorescence detector channels as well as the extraction of XANES and EXAFS [1].<br />

In a second step, we introduced an universal algorithm for automated BioXAS data<br />

analysis. Only the EXAFS data and a range of possible coordinations and ligands (e. g.<br />

coordination number ranging from 3-6 and potential ligands being sulfur, nitrogen, oxygen<br />

or histidine) have to be provided. All permutations are fitted to the experimental<br />

data; the individual refinements are performed by DL EXCURV [2]. Models leading<br />

to unreasonable fit parameters are rejected based on a comparison with an internal<br />

database. In the next step, the most favorable structure is identified by the goodnessof-fit<br />

parameter. The results are summarized in a HTML-file containing all structural<br />

models as well as plots of the best fits.<br />

The entire process requires few seconds to minutes using single-scattering approximation<br />

and considerably longer when the multiple scattering algorithm is included.<br />

Initially, the program mainly provides assistance for the scientist analyzing BioXAS<br />

data. This will change once that the algorithm is implemented on a computer cluster<br />

allowing multiple-scattering analyses within minutes and the identification of standard<br />

metal binding motifs. On the long run this might open the door towards an online<br />

structure determination during an experiment.<br />

Stratum corneum (SC), the outermost skin layer consisting of corneocytes which are<br />

embedded in a lipid matrix, is responsible for the unique properties of the mammalian<br />

skin. An aberrant composition of the SC lipids affects the regular skin functions. In<br />

recessive X-linked ichthyosis (RXLI), decreased levels of cholesterol (CHOL) related<br />

to the increased levels of cholesterol sulphate (CS) have been described. Currently,<br />

the CS accumulation is considered to be the primary mechanism contributing to the<br />

pathologic skin features. However, it is not enough elucidated yet, if the decreased<br />

CHOL levels can also contribute to the abnormality of the RXLI skin.<br />

This study aims to elucidate the role of CHOL in the SC on the molecular level. A<br />

lipid model system mimicking the SC lipid composition has been developed. Small angle<br />

X-ray diffraction on multilamellar vesicles has been used to determine the lamellar<br />

repeat distance of the SC lipid membranes. This value decreases with the increasing<br />

CHOL content in the membrane. Small angle neutron scattering on unilamellar<br />

vesicles allowed calculating the membrane thickness parameter (dg) and the average<br />

area per molecule of the membrane surface (A). An increase in the CHOL content in<br />

the membrane induces a decrease in dg and an increase in A. Neutron diffraction on<br />

multilamellar lipid films enabled us to obtain neutron scattering length density profiles<br />

of the model systems. The membrane thickness, thickness of the membrane hydration<br />

layer, thickness of the polar head groups as well as of the hydrocarbon chain regions<br />

have been determined [1].<br />

In conclusion, the reduced CHOL levels are wrongfully neglected in the RXLI pathophysiology.<br />

Decreased CHOL concentration in the SC lipid membranes induces a decrease<br />

in the required fluidity of the hydrocarbon chains and changes in the internal<br />

membrane structure. Consequently, the SC lipid membranes become more rigid and<br />

fragile and the skin function is strongly affected.<br />

Computational studies of radiation damage in protein crystals<br />

Radiation damage li<strong>mit</strong>s the achievable resolution and data quality received from protein<br />

crystals in X-ray structure analysis. For a better quantitative understanding the<br />

damage produced by inelastic interaction of photons in the crystal is studied. Inelastic<br />

scattering of photons and the produced electrons are investigated by a Monte - Carlo<br />

approach.<br />

Two types of inelastic interactions are possible, photoelectric effect and Compton<br />

scattering. For small energies up to 30 keV the photoelectric effect is dominant. For<br />

higher X-ray energies Compton scattering becomes dominant. The photo electron<br />

carries nearly all the energy of the incoming photon, which is absorbed in the crystal.<br />

In most cases a low energetic Auger electron is created afterwards. For Compton<br />

scattering an outer shell interaction takes place and most of the energy is carried out<br />

from the crystal by the high-energetic photon. Typically the Compton electron has a<br />

much lower energy comparing to that of the photo electron. Electrons produce a higher<br />

damage comparing to photons due to a higher inelastic cross section. The Monte Carlo<br />

approach simulates the very early stages of the damage (first few picoseconds). In the<br />

simulation programme the ionization and excitation of ions are simulated, but no bond<br />

braking or recombination is studied.<br />

Different energies (from the keV range up to 100 keV) and crystal sizes (from the<br />

nanometer scale up to hundred micrometer scale) were studied by this approach. The<br />

investigations were done to explore the best ratio between diffracted intensity and<br />

damage produced for the given chemical composition. It is evaluated from the number<br />

of ions produced by the incoming photon and the subsequent cascade. This value can<br />

be calculated either per inelastic photon or per elastic photon. The simulation gives<br />

also information on the spatial distribution, the number of excited atoms in the crystal<br />

and the time of interaction.

The major disadvantages of Perfluorinated polymers in polymer electrolyte fuel cells<br />

(PEFCS), are their low proton conductivity over 100 ◦ C as well as their high cost.<br />

Polymers containing heterocyclic rings with basic character have been shown to be<br />

quite interesting for PEFCs application, since their ability to transport protons above<br />

100 ◦ C [1, 2]. The presence of pyridine-like N sites may favour additional points for<br />

proton jumps, contributing to the proton conductivity. Previous ASAXS, WAXS and<br />

SAXS studies were performed on materials like sulfonated polymer matrix containing<br />

inorganic components (heteropolyacids, zirconium phosphates, sulfonated silica particles<br />

and zirconium oxides), to evaluate structural parameters like particles distribution,<br />

size and crystallinity for a better understanding of the correlation between structural<br />

and proton conducting properties of them. Detailed microstructure studies by SAXS<br />

and ASAXS have been done for fuel cell membrane materials based on:<br />

1. Poly(ether ether ketones), polyoxadiazoles (POD) and polytriazoles (PT): effect<br />

of degree of sulfonation and distribution of sulfonic groups, on the channels<br />

structure between the hydrophobic and hydrophilic phases. The study was accompanied<br />

by proton conductivity measurements. High ionic conductivity values<br />

were obtained (order of magnitude of 10 −3 S cm −1 at 50 ◦ C) for low sulfonated<br />

POD and PT. This result may be attributed to the presence of pyridinelike N<br />

sites [1].<br />

2. Nanocomposites: The previous work was continued including the use of metalorganic<br />

frameworks with a variety of functionalities on the surface of the pores<br />

or with guest molecules (e. g. conductive acids) and the use of sulfonated silica<br />

particles.<br />

We have used in-field neutron and X-ray single crystal diffraction to measure the incommensurability<br />

δ of the crystal and magnetic structure of multiferroic TbMnO3. We<br />

show that the flop in the electric polarization at the critical field HC, for field H along<br />

the a− and b−axis coincides with a 1st order transition to a commensurate phase with<br />

propagation vector κ = (0, 1<br />

, 0). In-field X-ray diffraction measurements show that<br />

4<br />

the quadratic magneto-elastic coupling breaks down with applied field as shown by the<br />

observation of the 1st harmonic lattice reflections above and below HC.

We have utilized neutron powder diffraction to probe the crystal structure of layered<br />

NaxCoO2 near the half doping composition of x =0.46. Our measurements show evidence<br />

of weak charge separation into stripes of Co +3.5+ɛ and Co +3.5−ɛ , ɛ ∼0.06e below<br />

T ′ =150 K, pointing to the development of a weak charge density wave (CDW) that<br />

locks − in at a lower temperature. The pattern of charge ordering reflects the Na-ion<br />

potential which leads to a distortion of CoO6 octahedra depending on the CoO6-Na<br />

coordination.

We have investigated the temperature dependence of the orbital, structural, and magnetic<br />

ordering in TbMnO3 by spectral ellipsometry, VUV reflectance, XAS, and Raman<br />

scattering in order to reveal the mechanism that leads to the symmetry breaking responsible<br />

for the multiferroic behavior. We find a pronounced redistribution of spectral<br />

weight below TN = 41 K in the optical spectra. We observe additional precursor effects<br />

in the spectra above TN . For incident photon energies of 1.91 eV in resonance with d<br />

- d transitions, we find a renormalization in the Raman spectra of the Jahn - Teller<br />

mode below TN and new soft mode below Tf , where TbMnO3 becomes multiferroic.<br />

In the VUV-reflectance spectra we analyze thermal difference spectra and find changes<br />

at the transition into the magnetic state at energies of 8,12, and 18 eV. The transition<br />

at 18 eV is most likely connected to the O2s-O2p transition. More details are revealed<br />

in the XAS spectra. We interpret our results as a strong evidence for the formation of<br />

an unconventional soft mode as a consequence of the interplay between the electronic<br />

correlations and the electron-phonon interaction.

Presently Heusler-alloys are intensively investigated as ferromagnetic (FM) electrodes<br />

in magnetic tunnel junctions [1] and as spin reservoir for spin-injection into semiconductor<br />

heterojunctions [2]. Due to a half metallic splitting of the d-band at EF , the<br />

spin polarization is predicted to be 100 %. The double Heusler compounds have a<br />

composition of the type X2YZ, (X=Co,Ni; Y=Mn, Z=Si,Ge) and a L21 structure, consisting<br />

of 4 interpenetrating fcc lattices. Only compounds with perfect LRO exhibit<br />

the maximum FM saturation moment of 5µB/f.u. and half metallicity. Site disorder<br />

decreases the polarization, the average µB, and the Curie temperature.<br />

We have studied the structure and magnetism of the ferromagnetic Heusler compound<br />

Co2MnGe in high-quality [Co2MnGe/Au]n, [Co2MnGe/V]n, and [Co2MnGe/Al2O3]n<br />

-multilayers (ML) by hard x-ray scattering, soft x-ray resonant magnetic scattering<br />

(XRMS), and polarized neutron reflectivity (PNR) [3]. The diffuse hard x-ray scattering<br />

reveals that in [Co2MnGe/Au]n at the interfaces correlated roughness dominates<br />

and interdiffusion is negligible, whereas in [Co2MnGe/V]n the roughness is uncorrelated<br />

and dominated by interdiffusion. In [Co2MnGe/Al2O3]n ML the interfaces are<br />

very sharp. Energy analysis of the ML Bragg peaks at the L2 and L3 edges of Co and<br />

Mn reveals the element-specific magnetic moment density profile (MMDP) within the<br />

Co2MnGe layers. We find that the MMDP of Co and Mn are definitely different. In<br />

addition they are more narrow than the chemical density profile and asymmetric with<br />

respect to the growth direction.<br />

We have also studied the interface quality and magnetization profile of [Co2MnGe/V]n<br />

and [Co2MnGe/Al2O3]n multilayers via PNR using the ADAM reflectometers at the<br />

ILL. In the R + map of [Co2MnGe/V]n a half order antiferromagnetic (AF) Bragg peak<br />

occurs at temperatures below 30 K, indicative for weak AF Néel coupling. In contrast,<br />

[Co2MnGe/Al2O3]n multilayers only show FM alignment of the Heusler layers. The<br />

diffuse scattering of the AF peak, as well as the specular intensities of all cross sections<br />

can be described by a domain state in remanence.<br />

TbMnO3 and DyMnO3 are improper ferroelectrics with a spontaneous polarization occurring<br />

below 28K and 18K, respectively. Both exhibit a polarization flop from P || c to<br />

P || a in an applied magnetic field. In order to study the interplay between magnetism,<br />

lattice distortions, and polarization we investigated the temperature and magnetic<br />

field dependence of structural superstructure reflections at the positions (0 δm l) and<br />

(0 2δm l) using x-ray diffraction. At zero field only second order superstructure reflections<br />

are observed whereas first order superstructure reflections appear in an applied<br />

magnetic field which increase linearly in intensity with magnetic field. This indicates<br />

that the quadratic magneto-elastic coupling breaks down in a magnetic field and a<br />

linear coupling is induced. In TbMnO3, the polarization flop from P || c to P || a<br />

coincides with an incommensurate (IC) to commensurate (C) transition of the wave<br />

vector. This is not the case for DyMnO3, where no wave vector change is observed at<br />

the critical magnetic field. The role of the IC to C phase transition will be discussed<br />

with respect to the polarization flop.

Investigation of Dilute Magnetic Semiconductor Multilayers with Polarized<br />

Neutron Reflectivity<br />

In recent years, one of the remarkable achievements in spintronics was the observation<br />

of hole-mediated ferromagnetism in diluted III-V compounds. However, the growth<br />

of group-IV diluted ferromagnetic semiconductors (DMS) such as MnxGe1−x has also<br />

triggered strong interest in searching for higher ordering temperatures TC in Ge-based<br />

compounds [1]. Recently, we have reported [2] on the successful synthesis of a new<br />

DMS compound: Ge co-doped with Mn and Fe. The addition of Fe to Ge(Mn) enables<br />

to conserve epitaxial growth for higher total concentrations of the magnetic species,<br />

which results in an increase of TC. The alloy films are prepared by repeatedly growing<br />

Ge/Mn/Fe trilayers with various thicknesses of the Ge base layers. When the Ge thickness<br />

becomes comparable with the diffusion length of Mn and Fe in Ge, a material without<br />

detectable interfaces is formed as confirmed by X-ray reflectivity [3]. Magnetization<br />

and magnetotransport measurements reveal ferromagnetic ordering, but show two<br />

different TC (210 and above 300 K), which we relate to two magnetic phases [3]. Comparison<br />

of the temperature dependence of the anomalous Hall effect and the saturation<br />

magnetization for a [Ge(40 ˚A)/Fe(2 ˚A)/Mn(4 ˚A)]22 sample shows that the contribution<br />

from the phase with TC > 300 K does not exceed ≈ 10 % of the total magnetization.<br />

Transmission electron microscopy shows the formation of precipitates depending on the<br />

preparation condition and the content of magnetic species. In order to have an unequivocal<br />

assignment of the magnetic phases to the precipitates and the matrix, respectively,<br />

more knowledge about the magnetic structure is required. Preliminary measurements<br />

were done on our polarized neutron beamline HADAS at FRJ-2. Nonspin-flip and<br />

spin-flip reflectivity spectra for the two samples, [Ge(40 ˚A)/Fe(4 ˚A)/Mn(2 ˚A)]11 and<br />

[Ge(40 ˚A)/Fe(2 ˚A)/Mn(4 ˚A)]11, were taken at 50 and 250 K for various applied fields<br />

(Ha). Significant contrast between magnetic moment parallel and antiparallel to Ha is<br />

visible only at 50 K and above 1.0 kOe, which corresponds to the saturation state of<br />

the sample with 4 ˚A Fe. The sample with 4 ˚A Mn shows similar contrast at somewhat<br />

lower fields when measured at 50 K, but this net magnetization is observable at higher<br />

fields even when measured at 250 K. So far, we could not obtain any element-specific<br />

insight in order to investigate the origin of the carrier-induced ferromagnetism, but we<br />

hope that this can be achieved by measuring at neutron sources with higher flux in<br />

the future. The present results are valuable guidelines for the optimized preparation of<br />

single-phase, homogenous Ge(Mn,Fe) DMS films with high TC and also provide useful<br />

feedback for future neutron measurements. [1] Y.D. Park et al., Science 295 (2002)<br />

Correlation effects may have a rather pronounced impact on the electronic structure<br />

of transition metal systems that is reflected in their spectroscopic properties. Corresponding<br />

calculations have to account for this by going beyond the standard approach<br />

based on Local Spin Density Approximation (LSDA). We present a combination of<br />

LSDA and the Dynamical Mean-Field Theory (DMFT) that provides a basis for dealing<br />

with a wide range of solids. The LSDA+DMFT approach has been combined with<br />

the KKR (Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker) band structure method to allow a corresponding<br />

calculation of spectroscopic properties. This is demonstrated by results for the angleintegrated<br />

photo-emission spectra of the pure ferromagnets Fe, Co and Ni. Using<br />

the LSDA+DMFT approach instead of plain LSDA led to a very satisfying agreement<br />

with experiment when investigating the pure Fano-effect. This also applies when<br />

studying the so-called fundamental spectra for circular polarization. As corresponding<br />

calculations of magneto-optical spectra are computationally very demanding we used<br />

the LMTO- instead of the KKR-method in this case. Applications are presented for<br />

the magneto-optical Kerr-spectra of Ni and NiMnSb. In both cases a very satisfying<br />

agreement with experiment could be achieved by use of the LSDA+DMFT approach.<br />

This also applies for the compound US, for which a proper relativistic treatment is<br />

mandatory.

In poorly consolidated fine-grained sediments syn-deformation fabric may not be easily<br />

detected for their scarce potential in trans<strong>mit</strong>ting the differential stress accumulated<br />

during tectonic deformation. Hence, in some sedimentary basins where sediments show<br />

no evident pervasive tectonic structures conventional structural methods cannot be applied.<br />

The question is whether it is possible to find any qualitative, or even quantitative,<br />

record of deformation in these sediments, before brittle failure occurs. In this study,<br />

an integrated approach of magnetic and mineral fabric investigations is proposed as a<br />

possible alternative tool for detecting grain scale and regional deformation patterns in<br />

weakly deformed sediments, where macroscopic evidence of deformation is not visible.<br />

We first discriminated between the fabric arising from the ferrimagnetic fraction with<br />

that from the paramagnetic matrix in order to understand which minerals contribute<br />

to the susceptibility and which fraction is responsible for the orientation of the principal<br />

axes of the AMS ellipsoid. Results show the paramagnetic minerals, i.e. chlorite,<br />

are the main contributors to the magnetic susceptibility. The chlorite preferred orientations<br />

were then quantified by neutron pole figure measurements, using the TEX-2<br />

in GKSS-Research Centre Geesthacht, Germany. Results show that neutron texture<br />

analysis represents a unique tool for mineral fabric investigation in clays. In fact, the<br />

high penetration of neutron beam and the possibility to utilize the same cylindrical<br />

specimen used for AMS analysis without any specimen preparation, make this method<br />

particularly suitable in detecting the mineral fabric in sediments, such as clays, whose<br />

original mineral fabric may be easily modified by specimen cutting and polishing. Magnetic<br />

results were compared with mineral results in order to independently determine<br />

the rock fabric and to establish a quantitative relationship between AMS and the preferred<br />

orientation of minerals carrying the magnetic fabric. Chlorite distribution is<br />

well correlated with the orientation of the high-field paramagnetic (HPF) and low-field<br />

(at room temperature RT and low temperature LT) AMS ellipsoids. The magnetic<br />

lineations (square symbols) are always perpendicular to the girdle distributions of the<br />

chlorite c-axes, which suggests that it is an apparent lineation. Therefore results indicate<br />

that the magnetic fabric is carried by chlorite and that its spatial arrangement has<br />

been modified in the strain field acting at regional scale and detected in other contiguous<br />

sediments. In this study, well show results from Neogene sedimentary sequences<br />

outcropping in the Rif chain (Morocco) and in Calabria (Southern Italy).

The discovery of the colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) in the manganites with perovskite<br />

structure [1] has stimulated the research of the compounds exhibiting large<br />

magnetoresistance. The magnetic and transport properties of La1−xSrxCoO3 cobaltites<br />

with perovskite structure and manganites such as La1−xSrxMnO3 have common features<br />

[2]. In both systems the substitution of La with divalent ion Sr creates paramagnetic<br />

(x0.3) transition as the dopant concentration is<br />

increased. The Sr 2+ and especially Ba 2+ ionic radiuses is significantly greater than that<br />

of the La 3+ ion, so it is possible to expect stabilization of the intermediate spin state of<br />

cobalt ions by substituting Sr 2+ and especially Ba 2+ ions for La 3+ ones. However, at<br />

such heterovalent substitution Co 4+ ions appear, leading to the ferromagnetic metallic<br />

ground state [3]. To prevent the Co 4+ ion appearance, it is possible to introduce<br />

simultaneously Nb [4] ions, which at the presence of Co 3+ ions will be in oxidizing<br />

state 5+. By simultaneously introducing Sr 2+ and Nb 5+ the cobalt ions keep their<br />

valence state and the electroconductivity of La1−xSrxCo1−x/2Nbx/2O3 solid solutions<br />

decreases with dopant concentration enhancement.Thus, the different nature of ferromagnetic<br />

interactions formation in the given systems is obvious [4]. In this work we<br />

present EXAFS and XANES measurements at the Co K-edge in La1−xSr(Ba)xCoO3<br />

and La1−xSrxCo1−x/2Nbx/2O3 (x = 0; 0.2; 0.3; 0.5) solid solutions. The sensitivity<br />

XANES and EXAFS to chemical composition, local lattice distortion, “chemical pressure”<br />

effect and to an overlapping mixture of low, intermediate and high spin states<br />

of Co 3+ and Co 4+ ions in these cobaltites was also considered. Crystal and magnetic<br />

structure of these cobaltites were precisely determined by high-resolution X-ray<br />

and Neutron diffraction methods. Correlations of the long-range structure parameters<br />

with local atomic and electronic structure ones and also with SQUID magnetization<br />

measurements was analyzed. The details of local atomic and electronic structure in<br />

cobaltites doped by Sr, Ba and Nb are presented and discussed.<br />

Das Schwer-Fermionen-System CeCu2(Si1−xGex)2 weist eine Vielzahl verschiedener<br />

Grundzustände auf, darunter Antiferromagnetismus und Supraleitung. Durch Variation<br />

der Germaniumkonzentration x kann der Übergang von einem Antiferromagneten <strong>mit</strong><br />

lokalen Momenten (x ≈ 1: TN ≈ 4,1 K) [1] hin zu einem antiferromagnetisch geordneten<br />

System itinieranter Momente (x ≈ 0: TN ≈ 0,7 K) [2] verfolgt werden. Dabei wird ein<br />

komplexes (x, T ) Phasendiagramm beobachtet, welches punktuell genauer untersucht<br />

wurde [3,4].<br />

Insbesondere CeCu2(Si0,55Ge0,45)2 nimmt eine Sonderstellung ein, da mehrere magnetisch<br />

geordnete Phasen gefunden wurden. Weiterhin liegen sowohl die Phasenübergangstemperaturen<br />

(TN ≈ 3 K, T1 ≈ 2,1 K, T2 ≈ 1,4 K) als auch das geordnete magnetische<br />

Moment (µord. ≈ 0,5 ·µB) in einem experimentell gut zugänglichem Bereich. Die Aufklärung<br />

der magnetischen Struktur dieses Systems ist von großer Bedeutung, da hiervon<br />

ausgehend auf die magnetische Struktur niedriger dotierter Proben, bis hin zu reinem<br />

CeCu2Si2, geschlossen wird. Bei tiefster Temperatur ordnet CeCu2(Si0,55Ge0,45)2<br />

inkommensurabel <strong>mit</strong> einer einfachen Modulation der Momentamplitude und einem<br />

Propagationsvektor τ = (0,273 0,273 0,51). Hierbei sind die magnetischen Momente<br />

orthogonal zum Propagationsvektor orientiert [5].<br />

Vor kurzem wurde ein elastisches Neutronenstreuexperiment an CeCu2(Si0,55Ge0, 45)2<br />

am PANDA-Dreiachsen-Spektrometer am FRM-II in Garching durchgeführt. Dabei<br />

wurden innerhalb der Tieftemperaturphase bei T = 50 mK zusätzliche Satellitenreflexe<br />

nachgewiesen. Diese treten an Positionen auf, die nur durch eine Erniedrigung<br />

der Symmetrie der magnetischen Struktur verstanden werden können. Dabei wird die<br />

Innenzentrierung der magnetischen Struktur aufgehoben.<br />

Die neuen Erkenntnisse werden in Beziehung zu früheren Ergebnissen diskutiert.<br />

In the last years perpendicular recording has been in the focus of scientific and technological<br />

interest on the search for materials to overcome the li<strong>mit</strong>ations in the storage<br />

density of conventional magnetic recording media. In order to reach the required<br />

high writing magnetic fields a soft underlayer is needed to provide a closure field during<br />

the writing process. An interesting candidate for such a magnetic underlayer is<br />

Fe50Pt50−xRhx. For certain compositions an antiferromagnetic (AF) state exists at<br />

lower temperatures which turns into a ferromagnetic (F) state at higher temperatures<br />

[1]. Used as a magnetic underlayer it can provide a closure field when heated lowering<br />

the write field. After the writing process the underlayer can be cooled again becoming<br />

AF and hence helps to stabilize the recording media via exchange interactions. The<br />

advantage of Fe50Pt50−xRhx compared to conventional underlayers like permalloy is<br />

that even thinner system may be sufficient to provide the same closure field.<br />

Neutron diffraction measurements were carried out to study the AF-F switching of thin<br />

films of Fe50Pt50−xRhx in dependence of temperature and magnetic field. Three kinds<br />

of AF ordering were observed, the (1/2 1/2 1/2), (0 0 1/2) and (1/2 1/2 3/2) depending<br />

on temperature and magnetic field. Both magnetization and neutron diffraction<br />

studies show the coexistence of an AF and F phase in a Fe50Pt40Rh10.<br />

Orthorhombic DyMnO3 exhibits incommensurate antiferromagnetic ordering of the<br />

Mn moments below TN,Mn = 39 K with a temperature dependent propagation vector<br />

q = 0.36 − 0.385 b ∗ . Via quadratic magnetoelastic coupling this ordering is associated<br />

with a lattice modulation 2q. Below about Tf = 18 K, the value of q freezes in and<br />

a spontaneous ferroelectric polarisation occurs. Below about 6 K this polarisation is<br />

suppressed considerably [1]. In order to clarify the role of Dy in this sequence of phase<br />

transitions, we have studied the Dy magnetic ordering using x-ray resonant magnetic<br />

scattering at the Dy-L3 edge on a single crystal DyMnO3. Recently, we have shown that<br />

below TN,Dy = 5 K, the Dy magnetic moments order in a commensurate structure with<br />

propagation vector 0.5b ∗ . Simultaneous with the Dy magnetic ordering, an incommensurate<br />

lattice modulation with propagation vector 0.905b ∗ evolves. The magnetic and<br />

structural nature of the corresponding Bragg reflections were demonstrated empolying<br />

linear polarisation analysis (see Figure). This behaviour was interpreted as resulting<br />

from a strong interference of Mn and Dy induced structural distortions in DyMnO3 [2].<br />

New measurements show that in the temperature range 5 K < T < 16 K an induced<br />

ordered magnetic moment, significantly smaller than below 5 K, exists on the Dy with<br />

propagation vector 0.385b ∗ , identical to the underlying Mn ordering. This temperature<br />

range apparently coincides with the one in which the spontaneous electric polarisation<br />

occurs, implying that the induced Dy ordering is directly related to ferroelectricity in<br />

DyMnO3. The results are discussed in relation to neutron diffraction measurements<br />

on an isotope enriched powder sample 162 DyMnO3 that are presented in a separate<br />

contribution.<br />

The magnetic structure of the single crystal MnSi under applied field has been studied<br />

by small angle diffraction with polarised neutrons below TC = 28.7 K. Experiments<br />

have shown that in zero field the magnetic structure of MnSi consists of four lefthanded<br />

spiral domains oriented along four 〈111〉 axes. The magnetic field, applied<br />

along one of the 〈111〉 axes, produces the single domain helix oriented along the field<br />

at HC1 ≈ 80 mT at low temperatures. The magnetic mosaic of the spin structure<br />

changes with the magnetic field and has a maximum at HC1. The integral intensity<br />

of the Bragg reflection shows a sharp minimum at Hin ≈ 160 mT attributed to the<br />

instability of the helix structure. When the field has a component perpendicular to<br />

the helix wavevector k, the wavevector rotates toward the field direction in the field<br />

range H < Hin. Additionally the second harmonic of the helix structure is induced by<br />

the perpendicular magnetic field at H < Hin. These three features are well explained<br />

accounting for the presence of the spin wave gap ∆ ∼ Hin/ √ 2 � 11 µeV, which provides<br />

the stability of the spin wave spectrum with respect to the perpendicular magnetic<br />

field. Further increase of the field leads to the magnetic phase transition from conical<br />

to ferromagnetic state near HC2 ≈ 600 mT. The critical field HC2 is related to the<br />

spin of the spin wave stiffness A as gµHC2 = Ak 2 . Our findings are in agreement with<br />

the recently developed theory [PRB, 73 (2006) 174402] for the cubic magnets with<br />

Dzyaloshinskii-Moria interaction, which relates the major parameters of the spin wave<br />

spectrum (such as the spin wave stiffness and the gap) with the features of the spin<br />

structure of MnSi being observed under applied magnetic field.

Modern thin film growth techniques allow enormous flexibility in the choice of sample<br />

composition, making these materials of particular interest for the investigation of spin<br />

dynamics in structures of reduced dimensionality. While techniques as Brillouin light<br />

scattering and ferromagnetic resonance experiments are li<strong>mit</strong>ed to specific regions in<br />

reciprocal space, inelastic neutron scattering provides, in principle, access to the whole<br />

Brillouin zone. We have shown that this technique can be used on multilayer samples<br />

[1]. These measurements are difficult, however, due to the small sample mass in superlattice<br />

structures. Rare earth elements are the best candidates for studying spin<br />

wave excitations in multilayer structures, since they exhibit the largest magnetic moment,<br />

and have the largest cross section for magnetic neutron scattering. Besides the<br />

novelty of measuring spin waves in artificially modulated structures, the experiments<br />

also provide new information on RKKY exchange coupling and its propagation across<br />

non-magnetic spacer layers.<br />

A new theory has been developed to describe the nature of the spin waves in a Dy/Y<br />

multilayer. The theory predicts discrete energy levels for spin waves propagating along<br />

the surface normal, with the number of discrete energy levels being derived from the<br />

number of magnetic atomic planes in a bi-layer. In the li<strong>mit</strong> of an infinite number<br />

of atomic planes the dispersion of bulk Dy [2] is recovered. The new calculations<br />

show significant dependence of the energy eigenvalues on interdiffusion and interfacial<br />

roughness.<br />

To compare with new calculations on spin wave excitation eigenvalues, we present inelastic<br />

neutron scattering measurements of low energy magnetic excitations in a Dy/Y<br />

superlattice. The experimental data of constant-q scans show in some regions of reciprocal<br />

space double/multi-peak features, as predicted by the theory. Although measured<br />

with high resolution, these peaks are broad in width, which might be due to interdiffusion<br />

and roughness. However, these data give supporting evidence for the new theory<br />

of spin wave excitations in constrained magnetic multilayer structures.<br />

The effect of substitution of Cr by Ti in Cr5Te8 has been investigated with respect to<br />

its crystal structure, magnetic properties, and electronic structure [1]. The compounds<br />

Cr5−xTixTe8 (x = 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 1.85, 2, 3, 4, 5) were synthesized at elevated temperatures<br />

followed by slow cooling the samples to room temperature. Three structural<br />

modifications are identified from X-ray powder diffraction data: monoclinic, space<br />

group F2/m for Cr5−xTixTe8 (x = 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 1.85), trigonal supercell, space group<br />

P-3m1 for Cr5−xTixTe8 (x = 2, 3), and trigonal basic cell, space group P-3m1 for<br />

Cr5−xTixTe8 (x = 4, 5). The structures of all these phases are related to the NiAs<br />

structure with full and deficient metal layers stacking alternatively along the c axis. The<br />

irreversibility in the field-cooled/zero-field-cooled magnetization with low field depends<br />

strongly on the Ti concentration x. Four types of magnetic states are distinguished: reentrant<br />

ferromagnet for m-Cr5Te8, cluster-glass for m-Cr4.5Ti0.5Te8 and m-Cr4TiTe8,<br />

antiferromagnetic for m-Cr3.5Ti1.5Te8, and spin-glass for tr-Cr3Ti2Te8, tr-Cr2Ti3Te8,<br />

and Cr0.25TiTe2. Here we report the neutron TOF studies (OSIRIS/ISIS, Rutherford<br />

Appleton Lab., UK) for m-Cr5Te8, m-Cr4TiTe8, m-Cr3.5Ti1.5Te8, and tr-Cr3Ti2Te8<br />

at temperatures from 1.5 K to temperatures above Tc. For the first two compounds,<br />

both FM and AFM Bragg peaks are observed at low temperatures, indicating the<br />

existence of long-range magnetic order. The set-in temperatures of FM/AFM peaks<br />

are 190/75 and 70/40 K for m-Cr5Te8 and m-Cr4TiTe8, respectively. The magnetic<br />

moments of the FM phase are along the c-axis and those of the AFM phase are found<br />

in the ab-plane. For m-Cr3.5Ti1.5Te8 and Cr3Ti2Te8, no magnetic Bragg scattering<br />

or background modulation were observed down to 1.5 K, indicating short-range magnetic<br />

correlations. The efforts to correlate the structural and magnetic properties and<br />

to understand the origin of the observed bulk magnetism from a microscopic point of<br />

view will be presented.<br />

Spin-density wave (SDW) state in thin Cr films is known to be under influence of<br />

dimensional (film thickness) and proxi<strong>mit</strong>y effects from neighboring layers. Here we<br />

report on a combined neutron and X-ray scattering study of these effects in a series<br />

of Cr/V superlattices with different Cr layer thicknesses. The neutron measurements<br />

have been performed at UNIDAS (<strong>Forschung</strong>szentrum Jülich) and D10 (ILL) instruments,<br />

the synchrotron measurements at the ID20 beamline in ESRF. From the above<br />

experiments we provide a systematical description of the onset of the SDW state in the<br />

system. It was found that Cr/V superlattices are non-magnetic for Cr layers thinner<br />

than 120 ˚A. At this thickness a commensurate SDW originates and as Cr thickness<br />

increases further a fraction of incommensurate SDW appears and expands. Finally the<br />

SDW becomes completely incommensurate. The Neel temperature and SDW period<br />

of the incommensurate SDW were found to scale with the Cr thickness as well. The<br />

research was supported by SFB 491 and INTAS project ref. No. 03-51-4778.<br />

Elastic and inelastic Small Angle Neutron scattering on magnetic nanostructures, such<br />

as nanowires, nanodots or nanomatrices, is a most promising technique for obtaining<br />

information on structural and dynamical magnetic properties, which are essential<br />

for the further development of higher density magnetic data storage devices and new<br />

technologies like magnetic random access memory devices.<br />

The main problem nowadays still lies in producing specimens of large enough area or<br />

volume with sufficient filling fraction for achieving sufficient scattered neutron intensities.<br />

For multilayer systems these difficulties have already successfully been overcome<br />

and results on inelastic neutron scattering on e.g. Dy/Y superlattices have been reported<br />

[1].<br />

We show approaches for also overcoming these difficulties in laterally nanostructured<br />

samples. Most promising are the use of holographic methods in combination with<br />

etching continous epitaxially grown layers (for nanowires and nanodots with an equal<br />

minimal lateral dimension and distance of 180 nm), the use of substrate shading by<br />

self organised periodic substrate surface structures during deposition (for nanowires<br />

with a basically infinite one dimensional expansion) as described in [2] and the use of<br />

self-assembly of CoPt3 Nanocrystals [3] for high volume filling fractions.<br />

Also we present the expectations for inelastic neutron scattering experiments which<br />

follow from the last theoretical results on inelastic neutron scattering in ordered systems<br />

of nanowires [4]. We show that a similar approach could be used in the case<br />

of three-dimensional ordered structures of CoPt3 nanospheres presented elsewhere [5].<br />

In such systems two different types of spin wave excitations could be interesting for<br />

neutron experimental investigation. The first is the lowest uniform mode, which energy<br />

is about 0.07 meV, and the second is the set of non-uniform modes with much larger<br />

energy scale. The corresponding dispersion and dynamic structure factor of inelastic<br />

neutron scattering are calculated and presented here, showing that these modes are<br />

indeed accessible for inelastic neutron scattering experiments.<br />

Magnetic domains are intensely investigated in ferromagnetic compounds according to<br />

their application as hard or soft ferromagnetic materials. Numerous methods are deployed<br />

to characterize the magnetic domain structure because of its strong influence on<br />

the relevant extrinsic magnetic properties. Mostly these techniques are based on measurements<br />

of the net magnetisation or on mapping of magnetic field inhomogeneities<br />

at the domain borders. Studies of domains in antiferromagnetic materials naturally<br />

request the usage of other signatures.<br />

In this presentation we will motivate at first the study of domains in antiferromagnetic<br />

materials. In general, the onset of antiferromagnetic order yields domains due to<br />

the lowering of symmetry by the propagation vector or the moment direction. These<br />

domains can play an important role, for instance, in the interplay between magnetism<br />

and superconductivity due to the pinning effect of domain borders on superconducting<br />

flux lines. Last but not least, the knowledge of the domain behavior is often necessary<br />

to determine the microscopic magnetic structure unambiguously. For both cases, we<br />

will present examples demonstrating different ways to characterize antiferromagnetic<br />

domains. In RNi2B2C compounds (R = rare earth), superconductivity and antiferromagnetic<br />

order can coexist. The antiferromagnetic domains are indirectly imaged<br />

through their attendant magnetoelastic distortions using x-ray topography at ESRF<br />

Grenoble. The results are discussed in relation to regularities in the domain arrangement<br />

proven by satellite reflections in neutron and x-ray diffraction patterns measured<br />

at ILL Grenoble and at Ames Laboratory. Consequences for the superconducting<br />

properties are discussed. In GdNi2Ge2, the second example, direct imaging of antiferromagnetic<br />

domains could be realised by x-ray resonant magnetic scattering and microscanning<br />

across the sample surface at APS Argonne. Domain imaging was essential<br />

to investigate the phase transition between the low-temperature spiral-like magnetic<br />

order and the high-temperature collinear magnetic structure in detail, because both<br />

magnetic structures would yield similar patterns in usual diffraction experiments due<br />

to domain averaging.<br />

Within the group of ferrimagnetic double perovskites of the type A2MNO6 (with A<br />

an alkaline earth, M a magnetic transition metal ion, and N a non-magnetic ion),<br />

a huge spread of magnetic transition temperatures is observed. We show for the example<br />

of the Cr-based double perovskites that increased band-filling by introducing<br />

elements with an increased number of 5d electrons leads to a strongly enhanced Curietemperature.<br />

Along this line the slightly rhombohedral compound Sr2CrOsO6 has a<br />

Curie-temperature of about 750 K. The magnetic structure determined by neutron<br />

scattering and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) experiments confirms the<br />

existence of a sizable induced magnetic moment at the Os-site. This result is consistent<br />

with the picture that to a large extent spin-polarized electrons mediate a robust<br />

ferrimagnetic order in Sr2CrOsO6.

Magnetic coupling of NiO and CoO to Fe3O4 investigated by X-PEEM<br />

Exchange coupling across ferromagnet-antiferromagnet-interfaces has gained great importance<br />

in magnetic storage and readout technology. Despite of widespread experimental<br />

and theoretical efforts, none of the present models provides an accurate description<br />

for a wider range of material systems. In order to separate and understand the<br />

microscopic details that lead to macroscopic effects like spin-flop coupling, coercivity<br />

enhancement and exchange bias, it is necessary to study quasi-ideal model systems.<br />

Therefore we investigated the exchange coupling of ultrathin films of NiO on CoO to<br />

high quality synthetic single crystals of magnetite. The films were grown epitaxially<br />

by in-situ Ox-MBE onto Fe3O4(111) substrates. We use Photoelectron Emission Microscopy<br />

(PEEM) in combination with polarized soft x-rays to simultaneously measure<br />

magnetization direction and spin-axis orientations in the ferrimagnet and the antiferromagnet,<br />

respectively, on a microscopic level(∆x = 50 − 100 nm). For CoO, we find<br />

the coupling to be of parallel (collinear) type (see Fig.1), as has also been observed for<br />

metallic (Co) ferromagnets in contact with NiO. In contrast, we observe 90 ◦ -coupling<br />

for NiO. This difference in behaviour is astonishing, since both substances have the<br />

same crystalline and similar magnetic structures. To detect small magnetic moments<br />

induced in the antiferromagnet by exchange coupling to the ferrimagnet, we employ<br />

a differential measurement technique based on 180 ◦ -domains present in the sample,<br />

achieving a magnetic signal to noise ratio better than 10 −4 . From this approach we<br />

can further differentiate between the two AF materials: for NiO, there is hardly any<br />

induced moment present at the samples, whereas the CoO adlayers show a large induced<br />

ferromagnetic signal. These differences are analyzed within a model which takes<br />

into account magnetostrictive effects.<br />

film is interesting both for applications in magnetoresistive devices as well as for fundamental<br />

studies. In AF materials the direction of the atomic magnetic moments varies<br />

on the length scale of atomic distances, leading to zero net magnetization if averaged<br />

over a few lattice constants. Atomic-scale control and characterization of the AF-FM<br />

interface is thus essential for a fundamental understanding of the magnetic interaction<br />

between AF and FM materials. We present an x-ray magnetic circular (XMCD)<br />

and linear dichroism (XMLD) photoelectron emission microscopy (PEEM) study of<br />

single-crystalline bilayers and trilayers containing FeMn as antiferromagnetic layer on<br />

a Cu(001) single crystal surface. All systems show pronounced layer-by-layer growth,<br />

as confirmed by medium energy electron scattering during evaporation and scanning<br />

tunneling microscopy. This layer-by-layer growth provides the opportunity to controllably<br />

tune the interface roughness on the atomic scale by changing the atomic layer<br />

filling. Layer-resolved XMCD-PEEM magnetic domain images reveal an oscillatory<br />

magnetic interlayer coupling between two ferromagnetic layers across an antiferromagnetic<br />

FeMn spacer layer, as well as a modulation of the phase of this oscillation and the<br />

coupling strength as a function of the bottom interface roughness [1]. This proves the<br />

importance not only of the presence of atomic steps at the interface, but also of their<br />

detailed arrangement. Because of the three-dimensional non-collinear spin structure of<br />

FeMn films [2], the XMLD signal of the AF layer vanishes. However, it was possible<br />

to identify the tiny XMLD signal of the induced moments in the FeMn layer at the<br />

interface. These represent the first magnetic domain images of a metallic AF acquired<br />

with XMLD.<br />

In the interpretation of the observed magnetic excitation spectra it is necessary to<br />

distinguish between the excitations for finite wave vector values, i.e. for q�=0 on the<br />

one hand and for q=0 on the other hand. The excitations with q�=0 are material specific<br />

non universal features on the length scale of the inter-atomic distance. On this length<br />

scale the short range Heisenberg interactions seem to be the relevant interactions.<br />

On the other hand, the spin dynamics at the stable fixed points T=Tc and T=0<br />

shows universality. Universality is represented by power functions of temperature with<br />

exponents that do not depend on microscopic details such as spin structure and lattice<br />

symmetry.<br />

Under the continuous symmetry of the long range ordered state distinction between<br />

individual spins on a discrete lattice is no longer possible. The relevant interactions<br />

are at the Γ point of the Brillouin zone, i.e. at q=0. Continuum theories are more<br />

appropriate than atomistic models. Unfortunately, the long range interactions at q=0<br />

are extremely small because they couple all spins of the sample.<br />

In many magnetic materials a magnetic excitation gap is observed at q=0. We show<br />

that in two dimensional (2D) magnets (K2NiF4) and in one dimensional (1D) magnets<br />

(MnF2) the gap has identical temperature dependence as the order parameter. The<br />

gap, therefore, seems to be a second component of the order parameter. On the other<br />

hand, isotropic 3D magnets with integer spin also exhibit a magnetic excitation gap<br />

(LaVO3). From the different temperature dependencies of gap and order parameter<br />

(UO2) it can be concluded that the gap is a second order parameter. 3D magnets with<br />

half-integer spin have continuous excitation spectra.<br />

As a conclusion, it appears that in 2D and 1D magnets the order parameter has two<br />

components while in 3D magnets two distinguished order parameters can be identified.<br />

These observations cannot be explained assuming only short range Heisenberg interactions.<br />

The only known long range interactions are dipole-dipole interactions. In a<br />

classical treatment dipole-dipole interactions seem not to be able to explain a different<br />

behaviour for integer and half-integer spin values [1]. As a conclusion, a new type of<br />

long range interaction has to be found that is able to explain universality, long range<br />

magnetic order in two and one dimension and different universality classes for integer<br />

and half-integer spin values.<br />

Evolution of incommensurate magnetic order from A-type antiferromagnetism<br />

in Nd1−xYxMnO3<br />

The evolution of spin- and orbital-ordered states for LnMnO3 with Ln=La - Ho has<br />

attracted significant attention in recent years. By lowering the Mn-O-Mn bond angle<br />

(by decreasing the ionic radius of Ln) the Neel-temperature decreases and at Ln = Tb<br />

the A-type antiferromagnet transforms to an incommensurate (IC) spin-spiral phase<br />

for Ln=Gd,Tb,Dy. The spin-spiral breaks both inversion and time reversal symmetry<br />

leading to a strong coupling between magnetism and ferroelectric polarization.<br />

In this work we study we investigate the evolution of the crystal and magnetic structure<br />

from the A-type phase to the IC spin spiral. This was achieved by systematically doping<br />

yttrium into NdMnO3. By that the tolerance factors can be lowered to values similar<br />

to that for multiferroic TbMnO3. One advantage of this appoach is that the tolerance<br />

factor can be tuned and that neodymiun and yttrium are not high neutron absopbing<br />

elements in sharp contrast to other rare earths like Gd, Dy and Eu.<br />

Compositions x = 0 to 0.5 in 0.1 steps have been prepared, neutron and x-ray powder<br />

diffraction patterns were measured at room temperature and 2K while the magnetic<br />

properties were measured with a SQUID magnetometer. It can be shown that by<br />

decreasing the tolerance factor that way, similar effects can be seen as with varying the<br />

ionic size of the rare earth ions. For example we found that for x = 0.4 and higher the<br />

incommensurate phase (δ = 0.2 -> 0.25) co-exist with the A-type antiferromagnetic<br />

phase. This suggests the transition from A-type to spin-spiral is discontinous.

The physics of antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chains is an area of high interest since<br />

even at zero temperature quantum fluctuations suppress long range order. In 1983<br />

Haldane concluded that for all integer spin values even a spin liquid ground state with<br />

a finite excitation gap is realized. [1] Since this time several Ni(II) metallo-organic<br />

systems have been clearly identified. Our aim was to elucidate the magnetic properties<br />

of metallo-supramolecular polyelectrolyte-amphiphile complexes (PAC) with Ni(II) as<br />

metal ion. [2] In PAC metal ions are coupled in a one-dimensional chain via metallosupramolecular<br />

coordination polyelectrolytes (MEPE), whereas amphiphile molecules<br />

serve as spacers between the MEPE chains. Ni(II)-PAC could be an molecular system<br />

realizing a Haldane quantum spin chain with S = 1. From the topology of the Ni(II)-<br />

PAC compound one may expect that Ni(II) S = 1 spins coupled via MEPE fragments<br />

in a chain can interact with each other antiferromagnetical. First magnetization results<br />

reveal a Curie-Weiss behaviour with a small antiferromagnetic Weiss temperature of<br />

1.3 K. These observations imply that one can realize the quantum Haldane situation<br />

by chemically engineering of the coupling strength between Ni-spins in a chain via<br />

increase of the antiferromagentic exchange interaction.<br />

Experiments on Fe(II)-PAC reveal the possibility to tune the magnetic properties<br />

of PAC by changing length of the ligand and amount of amphiphiles. Additionally<br />

previous element selective XMCD investigation elucidate an antiparallel oriented spinpolarization<br />

between iron and its sourrounding ligand leading to a magnetic coupling<br />

between neighbouring metal centres due to a superexchange interaction.<br />

The intention was to investigate the superexchange coupling between two Ni(II)-metal<br />

centres in PAC using x-ray magnetic linear dichroism (XMLD). We investigated a series<br />

of four different samples containing two different ligands each with two different metal<br />

to amphiphile ratios (1:6 and 1:2 metal to amphiphile ratios) at low temperature. The<br />

evaluation of the data was treated in terms of Zak’s formalism.<br />

All experiments were performed using the ALICE diffractometer of group Zabel, Uni-<br />

Bochum at BESSY II. This project is supported by DFG Priority program 1137 Molecular<br />

Size selected transition metal cluster allow to study the transition of the magnetic<br />

properties as a function of cluster size. Regarding possible applications these clusters<br />

have to be supported on a substrate or embedded in a matrix, where cluster-support<br />

interaction will influence their physical properties. To investigate the magnetic properties<br />

of such deposited clusters, x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) is an ideal<br />

tool, due to its element selectivity and the capability to measure spin- and orbital<br />

moments independently. For iron cluster deposited on a remanently magnetized thin<br />

nickel film a strong size dependence of the spin- and orbital moments have been found<br />

[1,2].<br />

The magnetic properties of the deposited clusters might be strongly influenced by<br />

the surface material. Thus, we have studied the magnetic properties of deposited,<br />

mass selected Crn and Run clusters on thin iron and nickel films. Crn clusters are of<br />

special interest, due to the anti-ferromagnetic coupling of chromium in the bulk. For<br />

Run-clusters in the gas phase a super-paramagnetic coupling is found, whereas this 4d<br />

element is non-magnetic in the bulk.<br />

Due to the anti-ferromagnetic coupling of Cr a complicated coupling scheme of the<br />

magnetic moments can be expected, e.g. already in a trimer for the third atom the spin<br />

will be frustated [3]. Thus we have started studies on chromium clusters in the size<br />

range from n=1 to n=13 deposited on ultrathin ferromagnetic nickel and iron films.<br />

Whereas for Cr cluster on Ni films no XMCD signal is found, Cr clusters on Fe films<br />

show a strong decrease of the magnetic moment by a factor of 4 with increasing cluster<br />

size. This effect can be interpreted in terms of a non-collinear coupling of the magnetic<br />

moments within the cluster and relative to the surface [4].<br />

For Run clusters we have performed experiments on deposited atoms and dimers on Ni<br />

and Fe surfaces. XMCD-experiments on the 4d elements are much harder to perform,<br />

due to the small cross section of the M2,3 edges as compared to the corresponding L2,3<br />

edges of the 3d metals. Whereas for Ru atoms on Ni(100) a ferromagnetic coupling is<br />

found, the Ru dimer on Ni(100) is non-magnetic. For Ru1,2 on a Fe surface the inverse<br />

behavior is found.<br />

Square lattice arrays of thin micro- and nanoelements of iron and permalloy are investigated<br />

by magnetic transmission x-ray microscopy. The influence of dipole interaction<br />

is analyzed by varying the interelement distance, the angle of the applied magnetic<br />

field, and the lattice configuration. For the iron squares the magnetostatic field caused<br />

by inter-element interaction leads to a substantial stabilization of the center elements<br />

of the array [1] comparable to the magnetization process previously found by numerical<br />

solution of the Landau-Lifshitz equation for magnetic dot arrays. Micromagnetic<br />

simulations show, that for high field strengths the dipolar interaction is collinear with<br />

the external field, while in the low-field-regime the strayfields have significant perpendicular<br />

components leading to a complex reversal mechanism.<br />

Neutron Investigation of the antiferromagnetic State of Co2SiO4 at HEiDi<br />

Olivine, (Mg,Fe)2SiO4, is an important mineral of the upper Earth’s mantle. Well<br />

known natural olivine-type silicates are fayalite (Fe2SiO4, paramagnetic Fe 2+ ions),<br />

forsterite (Mg2SiO4, diamagnetic Mg 2+ ions) and kirschteinite (CaFeSiO4, mixed diamagnetic/paramagnetic).<br />

A remarkable feature of the orthorhombic olivine-type structure<br />

(Pnma, no. 62) consists in two crystallographically non equivalent metal (Me)<br />

positions which yield one-dimensional chains of edge-sharing Me(1)O6 octahedra which<br />

are connected via Me(2)O6 octahedra.<br />

The magnetic properties of olivine compounds are quite complex. They are driven<br />

by different and competing super-exchange interactions. For instance, a complete replacement<br />

of paramagnetic Me(2) ions by diamagnetic ions should result in a onedimensional<br />

magnetic behaviour. Synthetic Co2SiO4 also crystallizes in the olivine<br />

structure. Former investigations of the magnetization of Co2SiO4 single crystals in<br />

dependence of crystal orientation and applied magnetic field were performed by W.<br />

Lottermoser and H. Fuess [1, 2]. At Tc ≈50 K an antiferromagnetic phase transition<br />

occurs. In the antiferromagnetic state at 20 K the Co(2) spins are collinear while<br />

the Co(1) spins are canted. To continue the investigation on the magnetical properties<br />

of Co2SiO4 a large single crystal (≈ 300 mm 3 ) was grown in a mirror furnace at<br />

Aachen.<br />

The single crystal diffractometer HEiDi at the hot source of the new neutron source<br />

Heinz Maier-Leibniz (FRM-II) was developed for very accurate structural investigations<br />

on single crystals and allows due to the short wavelengths between 1 ˚A and<br />

0.3 ˚A to separate the magnetic contributions from nuclear contributions to determine<br />

magnetic spin densities. The combination with a closed cycle cryostat in the Eulerian<br />

cradle with a remarkable low Tmin of 2.2 K at the sample position makes the instrument<br />

a very good choice for detailed magnetic investigations at very low temperatures.<br />

A neutron diffraction data set of our Co2SiO4 sample was taken on HEiDi at room temperature<br />

to characterize the sample quality. Cell parameters and atomic positions were<br />

very precisely determined with good agreement to data from literature [1, 2]. Temperature<br />

dependent measurements of magnetic reflections like (110) were performed from<br />

above Tc down to 2.2 K to observe their evolution in the antiferromagnetic phase. At<br />

2.2 K a complete Bragg data set with nuclear and magnetic contributions was taken. A<br />

first result is the excellent agreement between the phase transition temperature found<br />

in former investigations [1, 2] and our measurement. Further results of our investigations<br />

of the antiferromagnetic state of Co2SiO4 will be presented on this conference.<br />

The spin-polarized relativistic version of the Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker (SPR-KKR)<br />

method for the calculation of the electronic structure of solids supplies an extremely<br />

flexible and powerful basis to calculate a wide range of spectroscopic properties. We<br />

present an implementation of the SPR-KKR (Munich SPR-KKR package - available<br />

to interested users upon request:<br />

http://olymp.phys.chemie.uni-muenchen.de/ak/ebert/SPRKKR) together with recent<br />

applications to magnetic solids. As a first example results for the pure Fano-effect in<br />

the angle-integrated photo-emission of the ferromagnets Fe, Co and Ni is presented.<br />

It is demonstrated that this spin-orbit induced effect can be observed and discussed<br />

independent on the intrinsic spin polarization. Comparison between recent experimental<br />

results lead to a very satisfying agreement. In addition we present applications to<br />

the magnetic circular dichroism in X-ray absorption (XMCD). Corresponding results<br />

are presented for small transition metal clusters deposited on a metallic substrate. For<br />

Co on Pt(111) the calculated spin and orbital moments are found to reproduce the<br />

trend of the experimental results based on the XMCD sum rules very well. For Ru on<br />

Fe(001) the observed induced moment could be confirmed by the calculations. Investigations<br />

on the L2,3-edge spectra of the pure elements Gd, Tb and Dy demonstrated the<br />

importance of correlated effects and allowed to identify the non-negligible quadrupolar<br />

contributions to the XMCD-spectra.

Diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMS) are key materials for spintronics, which are<br />

intended to manipulate both the spin and charge degree of freedom by coupling the<br />

spins of the magnetic ions and the charge carriers of the host semiconductors. Recently<br />

several oxide-based DMS have been reported to be robust, room temperature<br />

ferromagnets. In particular, the Co-doped TiO2 system, first reported to be ferromagnetic<br />

by Matsumoto [1], has received much attention. However, a consensus on the<br />

origin of the ferromagnetic coupling has not yet been reached. To clarify this situation<br />

we have studied in detail the magnetic properties of Co-doped TiO2 synthesized by<br />

ion implantation with doses of 0.25-1.50·10 17 ions/cm 2 using x-ray resonant magnetic<br />

scattering (XRMS) in a temperature range of 4.2-295 K. The XRMS experiments were<br />

carried out at BESSY II using the ALICE diffractometer [2].<br />

Firstly, a two-component hysteresis curve was observed at the Co L3 edge (E=778 eV)<br />

for the sample implanted with the dose of 1.50·10 17 ions/cm 2 . However, variation of<br />

the photon energy leads to a change of the relative intensities of these two components<br />

and at the photon energy of E=780 eV only a one-component hysteresis curve has been<br />

observed. This allows to separate magnetic contributions from Co ions incorporated in<br />

TiO2 and contributions from Co metallic clusters. We found that the Curie temperature<br />

increases from 12 K for the lowest implantation dose (D=0.25·10 17 ions/cm 2 ) to<br />

above room temperature for samples implanted with a dose of 1.00·10 17 ions/cm 2 .<br />

Within our sensitivity no magnetic signal was found at the Ti edges, however at the<br />

O K edge a small, but clearly visible magnetic signal was observed. From this we<br />

infer that oxygen atoms which are close to Co atoms are polarized. This observation<br />

could imply that the ferromagnetism observed for Co-doped rutile (100)TiO2 samples<br />

is mediated by a superexchange mechanism through oxygen atoms.<br />

The magnetic properties of CoO/Fe blayers are strongly influenced by the stoichiometry<br />

of the antiferromagnetic (AFM) CoO layer. We prepared stoichiometric and single<br />

crystalline CoO-films by an annealing step in UHV and compared them to as prepared<br />

samples. Especially the blocking temperature TB is sensitive to the oxygen concentration<br />

as shown by SQUID magnetometry (Fig. 1). While TB of stoichiometric, epitaxial<br />

CoO equals the Neel temperture of the bulk material, it is reduced by 40K in the superstoichiometric<br />

case. The annealed CoO films serve as a seed layer for the growth of<br />

epitaxial Fe films. The epitaxial relation between CoO and Fe was found to be of the<br />

Nishiyama-Wassermann [1,2] type (Fig. 2). Polarized neutron reflectometry (PNR)<br />

reveals the magnetic reversal mechanism. We observe a transition from domain wall<br />

movement to domain rotation within the first hysteresis after field cooling indicated by<br />

an strong increase of spin-flip scattering in the second half of the hysteresis loop [3].<br />

The fundamental question of the universality of the precursor features of a low temperature<br />

disordered phase cannot be easily answered. Non-exponential relaxation is<br />

found in glasses and spin glasses but not in disordered ferromagnets and antiferromagnets.<br />

According to an Griffithss argument, however, the paramagnetic phase above<br />

disordered ferromagnets should be anomalous showing non-exponential relaxation. We<br />

searched for this so-called Griffithss phase in the disordered system Au1−xFex, by combining<br />

Neutron Spin Echo (NSE) spectroscopy and Muon Spin Relaxation (µSR). This<br />

system is spin glass for x0.155. At the spin<br />

glass side, for x=0.14, the analysis of the strongly non-exponential relaxation leads to<br />

an excellent agreement between NSE and µSR, an unambiguous proof of the homogeneous<br />

character of the spin glass relaxation. A slight increase of the Fe concentration<br />

leads to the disordered ferromagnetic phase (x=0.16, 18) and an abrupt change of the<br />

relaxation seen by NSE, which becomes exponential. The µSR spectra on the other<br />

side remain non-exponential and at high temperatures they are very similar to those of<br />

the spin glass side of the phase diagram, as expected by the Griffithss argument. The<br />

puzzling discrepancy between NSE and µSR in the disordered ferromagnetic phase explains<br />

why neutron scattering and macroscopic magnetization measurements failed up<br />

to now to identify the Griffithss phase in disordered magnets. The observation of the<br />

Griffiths phase by muons and of the disordered ferromagnetic transition with neutrons<br />

provides a deeper link between theory and experiment and gives a natural explanation<br />

of the marked influence of strong disorder on the ferromagnetic and antiferromagetic<br />

second order phase transitions.

Bulk amorphous Nd60FexCo30−xAl10-alloys presents hard-magnetic properties for x>5.<br />

Some macroscopic investigations are reported [1], where two Curie temperatures (Tc1 ∼<br />

50 K and Tc2 ∼ 525 K) are observed. This samples exhibits a Fe-rich phase in micrometer<br />

scale, an amorphous matrix and some nanoparticles. The high coercivity were<br />

attributed to the pinning of magnetic domains with some Nd-nanoparticles in the Ferich<br />

phase. Small-angle neutron scattering with polarized neutrons (SANSPOL) allows<br />

to investigate and separate both nuclear and magnetic properties of a sample in the<br />

nanometer scale.<br />

An applied magnetic field of µ0H=6 T doesnt saturated the sample and it follows, that<br />

the magnetic scattering contribution is weak compared to the nuclear one. Previous<br />

SANS experiments and high field measurement on Nd60Fe20Co10Al10-alloy have shown<br />

that the sample was not saturated [2,3] and confirm the presence of magnetic domains.<br />

The present measurements have been performed on the Nd60Fe7.5Co22.5Al10-alloy at<br />

temperatures between 5 K and 550 K and magnetic fields of µ0H=1 T and 6 T. The<br />

scattering curves corroborate the presence of magnetic domains. The Nd-nanoparticles,<br />

which are paramagnetic above Tc1, will act as pinning centers for the domains walls.<br />

Structural changes in cobalt-based ferrofluids under shear stress observed<br />

by small angle neutron scattering<br />

Long term stable colloidal suspensions of nanometer-sized magnetic particles in appropriate<br />

carrier liquids, ferrofluids show normal liquid behaviour coupled with superparamagnetic<br />

properties. Due to the possibility to change their physical properties<br />

by means of moderate magnetic fields, they can be used for an expanding number of<br />

applications like, for example, as a cooling medium in loudspeakers or as a sealing for<br />

rotary feedthroughs. Additional application fields concerning the use of ferrofluids in<br />

biomedical applications for cancer therapy are subject of actual research activities.<br />

In the presence of magnetic fields ferrofluids show an increase of their viscosity, the<br />

so called magnetoviscous effect, of several hundred percent compared to the viscosity<br />

without magnetic field. Due to a strong shear thinning in commercial ferrofluids, the<br />

viscosity changes diminish for technical useful shear rates to values not suitable for<br />

applications. Therefore, in the last years, a lot of experimental and theoretical studies<br />

have been done in order to explain the microscopic mechanisms of the magnetoviscous<br />

effect. As a result of these efforts, a model, based on numerical and experimental data,<br />

has been established. Chain formation of magnetic particles with strong particle particle<br />

interaction as well as structure destruction by means of shear influence are the<br />

essential processes for the understanding of the magnetoviscous phenomena.<br />

Since until now experimental data proving such a connection between the structure of<br />

ferrofluids and their viscous properties were missing the study of the microstructure<br />

of ferrofluids under shear for different magnetic field strengths and shear rates and<br />

its consequences on the magnetoviscous effect is in the focus of recent research. Using<br />

a specially designed rheometer, rheological as well as small angle neutron scattering<br />

investigations have been performed in the same experimental environment.<br />

The obtained results show a strong connection between structure formation in ferrofluids<br />

and their rheological behaviour. The evidence for a formation of chains and<br />

their deviation in a shear flow validates therefore the model of chain formation as an<br />

explanation for the magnetoviscous effect. Further information, concerning the local<br />

magnetisation of the sample in a shear flow relative to the direction of the chains,<br />

obtained from experiments using polarised neutrons, will be presented. Additionally,<br />

the possibility of combining X-Ray and neutron experiments will be discussed.<br />

Establishing a connection between the changes of the microstructure of ferrofluids,<br />

under the influence of a magnetic field, and their consequences on the macroscopical<br />

behaviour of these systems could allow an optimisation of the fluids. Based on the<br />

knowledge gained from experimental and theoretical studies, new applications can be<br />

developed, making ferrofluids an attractive medium for potential further research.

Forbidden magnetic reflections in UNiGa<br />

UNiGa crystallizes in the hexagonal ZrNiAl structure and undergoes a sequence of<br />

magnetic phase transitions in the 35 - 39.5 K temperature range. The ground-state<br />

antiferromagnetic (AF) structure is characterized by three propagation vectors q1=(0,<br />

0, 1/2), q2=(0, 0, 1/3) and q3=(0, 0, 1/6) corresponding to the c-axis (up-up-downup-down-down)<br />

stacking of U-moments that are ordered ferromagnetically within the<br />

hexagonal basal planes [1]. A strong uniaxial anisotropy keeps the moments aligned<br />

along c in all the magnetic structures. A magnetic field applied along the c axis induces<br />

a metamagnetic-like transition leading to a field-forced ferromagnetic stacking.<br />

This transition, which is of the first-order type with considerable hysteresis at T = 4.2<br />

K and appears at Bc≈ 0.8 T, splits into two steps for the temperature above 15 K.<br />

In the intermediate fields the structure of the (up-up-down) type was detected. The<br />

size of U-moments (1.35 µB at T = 4.2 K) is practically independent of the type of<br />

structure. A strong uniaxial anisotropy in this system locks the U moments along the<br />

c-axis (which is also the easy-magnetization axis). While low field applied at low temperatures<br />

along the hexagonal axis breaks the AF coupling and forces the U magnetic<br />

moments to align parallel, magnetic field applied perpendicular to the c axis has no<br />

significant influence on the low-field magnetic structure of UNiGa. Previous high-field<br />

magnetization studies at 4.2 K revealed that even magnetic fields as high as 35 T are<br />

not sufficient to tilt the moments significantly away from the hexagonal c axis. From<br />

these data one can roughly estimate the magnetic anisotropy field to be at least 300<br />

T. It is therefore surprising that among the observed ground-state AF reflections are<br />

also reflections of the (0 0 +/- qn) type, i.e. reflections for which is the projection<br />

of magnetic moment on the plane perpendicular to the scattering vector zero. There<br />

is no doubt that the ground state AF structure of UNiGa published in the literature<br />

on the basis of previous unpolarised and polarised neutron diffraction experiments is<br />

correct. The apparent disagreement between the experiment and theory calls for an<br />

explanation. In this contribution we describe combined results of neutron and X-ray<br />

diffraction performed on a good-quality single crystal to explain the possible reason for<br />

such an observation.<br />

DyMnO3 belongs to the family of the spin frustrated multiferroic perovskites which<br />

exhibit a strong coupling between magnetism and ferroelectricity. We have examined<br />

the magnetic and crystal structure of 163 DyMnO3 using neutron powder diffraction.<br />

We find that the Mn-spins order incommensurately with propagation vector<br />

q = (0, δ, 0), δ ∼ 0.37 at T > TN (Mn)=38 K. The magnitude of δ varies as a function<br />

of temperature much the same way as it does in TbMnO3. At lower temperature,<br />

TN (Dy) ∼6 K, we find that Dy spins order commensurately with propagation<br />

vectorq = (0, 1/2, 0), while the ordering of Mn-spins remain incommensurate.<br />

Surprisingly we find that as Dy-spins order the intensity of reflections that arise from<br />

Mn ordering decrease substantially in intensity. This may imply that Dy-spins also<br />

order with the same wavevector as Mn-spins and contributed to the corresponding<br />

Bragg reflections for T>TN (Dy). This hypothesis has been confirmed my resonant<br />

X-ray scattering presented in an other contribution to this conference.

We report on the increase of the Fe magnetic moment within Fe/V superlattices upon<br />

H-uptake. At the Fe/V interface of pristine, ferromagnetically coupled Fe/V superlattices<br />

the V atoms acquire a magnetic moment, antiparallel aligned to the Fe moments<br />

[1]. Upon hydrogen loading the saturation magnetization was found to increase [2].<br />

We employed element specific X-ray resonant magnetic scattering to investigate the response<br />

of the Fe and the V moments separately. An epitaxial [Fe(2ML)/V(16ML)]×30<br />

superlattice was employed, ensuring a high number of V neighbors of each Fe atom. The<br />

soft x-ray measurements were carried out using the ALICE diffractometer at BESSY<br />

II in Berlin, Germany. The data clearly show a strong increase of the Fe moment upon<br />

H-loading (left panel). No change of the magnetic asymmetry at the V edge could be<br />

recognized (right panel). Our measurements confirm nicely the theoretical model by<br />

Uzdin et al. [3], predicting an increase of the Fe moment and a stable V moment in H<br />

loaded Fe/V superlattices. The authors are grateful for technical support by T. Kachel<br />

Spin-density wave (SDW) state in thin Cr films is known to be under influence of<br />

dimensionality (film thickness) and proxi<strong>mit</strong>y effects from neighboring layers. Here<br />

we report on a combined neutron and X-ray scattering study of these effects of H<br />

loading on a [Cr(500ML)/V(14ML)]×4 superlattice. The neutron measurements have<br />

been performed at the <strong>Forschung</strong>szentrum Jülich (UNIDAS) while the synchrotron<br />

measurements were carried out at the ESRF (ID20). Exposed to a hydrogen atmosphere<br />

of up to 1 bar, the sample takes up H quickly. As the dissolved H only resides<br />

in the V lattice, it does not influence directly the intrinsic properties of the Cr. It<br />

modifies the SDW state via the boundary conditions in proxi<strong>mit</strong>y with the H-loaded<br />

V. It was found that H in the V layers favors the commensurate phase, shifting the<br />

commensurate-incommensurate phase coexistence to lower Temperatures. This research<br />

was supported by SFB 491 an by the INTAS project ref. nr. 03-51-4778.<br />

The distribution of holes in Sr14−xCaxCu24O41 (SCCO) is revisited with semi-emperical<br />

reanalysis of the x-ray absorption (XAS) data and exact-diagonalized cluster calculations.<br />

A new interpretation of the XAS data leads to much larger ladder hole densities<br />

than previously suggested. These new hole densities lead to a simple interpretation<br />

of the hole crystal (HC) recently reported with 1/3 and 1/5 wave vectors along the<br />

ladder. Our interpretation is consistent with paired holes in the rung of the ladders.<br />

Exact diagonalization results for a minimal model of the doped ladders suggest that<br />

the stabilization of spin structures consisting of 4 spins in a square plaquette as a<br />

result of resonance valence bond (RVB) physics suppresses the hole crystal with a 1/4<br />

wave vector.

The new cobaltates CaBaCo3AlO7 and CaBaCo3ZnO7 have a common structure, in<br />

which Co-ions form kagomé layers leading to high geometrical frustration among the<br />

strongly antiferromagnetically coupled Co-spins. The different ions Al and Zn in both<br />

compounds choose different sites; Zn prefers sites within the kagomé layers, while Al<br />

occupies sites in between the kagomé layers.<br />

We have performed neutron scattering experiments with polarization analysis to separate<br />

the diffuse magnetic scattering, which shows an asymmetric peak, indicating lowdimensional<br />

spin correlations. Despite the strong antiferromagnetic coupling between<br />

the Co-ions, evidenced from the large negative Curie-Weiss constant, both materials<br />

do not exhibit magnetic long-range order down to T=1.2K. The diffuse scattering is<br />

similar to predictions for the classical Heisenberg antiferromagnet on the kagomé lattice,<br />

which is supposed to select a ground state of staggered chirality, the so-called<br />

√ 3x √ 3 structure. For CaBaCo3ZnO7 the non-magnetic Zn-ions cause spin dilution in<br />

the kagomé layers, resulting in spin disorder among the Co-spins. The non-magnetic<br />

Al-ions on the interlayer sites cause a magnetic decoupling of the kagomé layers and<br />

prohibit 3D spin order to take place.<br />

The transport properties of Co2MnSi / AlOx / Co-Fe magnetic tunnel junctions showing<br />

a tunnel magnetorestistance of 95 % at low temperatures are discussed with respect<br />

to temperature dependent magnetic moments at the Co2MnSi / AlOx interface and<br />

electronic band structure effects. These junctions show a considerably larger temperature<br />

and bias voltage dependence of the tunneling magnetoresistance compared<br />

to Co-Fe-B / AlOx / Co-Fe-B junctions, although the effective spin polarization of<br />

Co2MnSi (66 %) is larger than Co-Fe-B (60 %). With increasing atomic disorder of the<br />

interfacial Co2MnSi its magnetic moments decrease and show a stronger temperature<br />

dependence. Even for the best achieved atomic ordering the corresponding spinwave<br />

parameters of Mn and Co at the Co2MnSi / AlOx interface are significantly larger<br />

than expected for Co2MnSi bulk and also larger than the spin wave parameters of Co<br />

and Fe at a Co-Fe-B / AlOx interface. The influence of enhanced interfacial magnon<br />

excitation in the Co2MnSi / AlOx / Co-Fe junctions on their transport properties will<br />

be discussed.

The stable tetragonal crystal structure and the reduced electronic dimensionality in<br />

single layered manganites La1−xSr1+xMnO4 open the way to a detailed study of the<br />

complex interplay of several degrees of freedom being relevant for all manganite-oxides<br />

[1] and which in the 3d perovskite manganites results in the colossal depression of the<br />

electric resistivity under magnetic field.<br />

The most studied compound of this family is the half-doped system La0.5Sr1.5MnO4<br />

with an equal ratio of three- and four-valent Mn-ions, leading to a complex ordering of<br />

charges and orbitals below TCOO. At lowest temperatures this ordering is accompanied<br />

by an AFM ordering of the spins of the so-called CE-type, which is characterized by an<br />

AFM ordering of FM zigzag chains. Here we present our results of an inelastic neutron<br />

scattering study on the magnetic excitations of this complex ordered ground state [2].<br />

We find a very anisotropic magnon spectrum with a steep dispersion along the direction<br />

of the FM zig-zag chains and only a weak AFM coupling between adjacent chains. We<br />

discus the observed spectrum in terms of linear spinwave theory, and based on a strong<br />

next-nearest neighbour exchange we stress the similarity of the magnetic excitation<br />

spectrum of the CE-type ordering with that in FM metallic perovskite manganites.<br />

To weaken the AFM interchain-coupling and the CE-type structure we studied the doping<br />

dependence of the CE-ordering in the region 0.4 ≤ x ≤ 0.6. For the underdoped<br />

compound x = 0.4 enhanced diffuse magnetic scattering indeed points to a pertubation<br />

of the magnetic coupling between adjacent chains. Although the sample remains<br />

insulating a strong FM response of 1.5µB/Mn at fields of 14T seems to somehow<br />

connect the single layered manganites with the 3d CMR-perovskites. Upon overdoping<br />

with Sr (x > 0.5), we do not observe a significant softening of the interchain coupling,<br />

but instead both the charge/orbital and the magnetic ordering get incommensurable,<br />

oncemore resembling the observations in the perovskite manganites.<br />

Magnetismus entsteht üblicherweise durch die Wechselwirkung magnetischer Momente<br />

von Elektronen, wie z.B. in Materialien <strong>mit</strong> 3d Elektronen. Ein sehr aktuelles<br />

<strong>Forschung</strong>sfeld ist die Suche nach Stoffen, die normalerweise nicht magnetisch sind<br />

aber bei denen durch elektronische oder strukturelle Effekte Magnetismus entstehen<br />

kann. Beispiele hierfür sind organische Magnete oder verdünnte magnetische Halbleiter.<br />

Sehr aktuell sind Hinweise, dass sich Oxyde von Übergangsmetallen unter bestimmten<br />

Umständen magnetisch verhalten.<br />

werden. Wenig ist bisher über die mikroskopische Struktur einzelner Fremdatome<br />

bekannt. Eine Arbeit berichtet über die Erzeugung von Magnetismus <strong>mit</strong>tels Protonenbestrahlung<br />

Wir haben Eisenatome als 57Fe in sehr hoher Verdünnung (ppm Bereich) in Graphit<br />

implantiert und an den Sonden Mössbauereffekt (ME) gemessen. Die Experimente werden<br />

<strong>mit</strong> der In-Beam Mössbauerspektroskopie (IBMS) am ISL Beschleuniger des HMI<br />

Berlin durchgeführt [2]. Ein 6-Linienspektrum zeigt, dass bei Temperaturen unterhalb<br />

52 K ein statisches Magnetfeld von 32 Tesla an den Sonden vorhanden ist. Die gleichzeitig<br />

gemessene Quadrupolaufspaltung (kombinierte Wechselwirkung) und Isomerieverschiebung<br />

weisen auf einen interstitiellen Gitterplatz hin. Experimente wurden an<br />

Highly Oriented Pyrolytic Graphite (HOPG) und polykristallinem Material ausgeführt,<br />

Analysen der implantierten Schichten ergaben Frematomkonzentrationen im ppm Bereich.<br />

Das Zeitfenster des IBMS beträgt ca. 1 Mikrosekunde. Während dieser Zeit können<br />

sich keine Ausscheidungen bilden. Die überraschende Entdeckung des magnetischen<br />

Verhaltens wird diskutiert, es kann dabei unterschieden werden zwischen der lokalen<br />

Struktur gemessen über den Mössbauereffekt und der Frage, ob es sich hier um eine<br />

langreichweitig geordnete Struktur handelt. Eine mögliche Ursache für den Magnetismus<br />

könnten die um das Implantat entstehenden Defekte sein, die selbst magnetische<br />

Momente tragen [3] und <strong>mit</strong> dem Fe-Atom magnetisch koppeln.<br />

Magnetic and orbital order in the 4d electron systems Ca2−xSrxRuO4 and<br />

RuSr2GdCu2O8 were investigated by resonant x-ray diffraction at the Ru LII and LIII<br />

absorption edges from single-crystals. A large resonance enhancement of the scattered<br />

signal is observed which is due to electric dipole transitions directly into the partly<br />

occupied 4d band.<br />

The Ca2−xSrxRuO4 compounds exhibit a rich phase diagram reaching from Sr2RuO4,<br />

the only known non-cuprate layered perovskite with superconducting properties (Tc =<br />

1.5 K) to Ca2RuO4, an antiferromagnetically ordered Mott insulator (TN = 110 K),<br />

with an active orbital degree of freedom. Our investigations of Ca2RuO4 revealed the<br />

existence of an orbitally ordered phase with a phase transition temperature of about<br />

260 K [1], which lies well above the antiferromagnetic transition. The propagation<br />

vector of the orbitally ordered phase is the same as the one in the low-temperature<br />

antiferromagnetic state. The orbital order phase transition is observed also in the<br />

x=0.1 Sr-doped compound with a lower critical temperature.<br />

The ruthenocuprate system RuSr2GdCu2O8 is known for exhibiting both long-range<br />

magnetic order of the Ru magnetic moments (TN = 136 K) and superconductivity<br />

(Tc ≈ 35 K). Our investigations on a small single crystal allowed the precise determination<br />

of the direction of its magnetic moment from the azimuthal dependence of the<br />

magnetic scattering intensity. The moment direction was found to differ significantly<br />

from the (001) direction, revising conclusions drawn from powder neutron diffraction<br />

results. Finally, a possible interaction between the magnetic order and the onset of<br />

superconductivity was also investigated.<br />

At present there are many manganite systems studied in which manganese ions are<br />

substituted for other 3d- or diamagnetic ones. It is found that Cr and Fe ions have<br />

the strongest effect on magnetic properties, small additions of them can result in a<br />

change of the ground magnetic state. However the magnetic structure of manganites<br />

heavily doped by Cr and Fe is unknown. So we have performed neutron diffraction<br />

and magnetic studies for NdMn1−xFexO3 and NdMn1−xCrxO3 manganites in a wide<br />

range of Fe and Cr dopants. Crystal structure of compound with x=0.5 has been<br />

refined in space groups Pnma and P21/n. However, the refinement in P21/n group<br />

did not improve significantly the reliability factors in comparison with the space group<br />

Pnma what points the absence of the Mn and Cr ions ordering. Oxygen octahedron<br />

around 3d-ions is rather elongated along one of the axes. This may be expected in<br />

the case of Jahn-Teller stabilization of dz2 orbitals of manganese ions. The angles<br />

O-Mn/Cr-O and O-Mn/Fe-O are close to 1520, what is much less than in manganites<br />

of lanthanum doped with alkaline earth. In NdMn0.5Cr0.5O3 the magnetic structure<br />

has been revealed consisting of both ferromagnetic and G-type antiferromagnetic components<br />

resulting from a 3d-ions magnetic moments ordering. Magnetic moments of<br />

Nd-ions are parallel to the ferromagnetic component. In NdMn0.5Fe0.5O3 only the<br />

antiferromagnetic G-type structure has been revealed whereas Nd-sublattice is not ordered.<br />

According to spectroscopic data both Cr and Fe ions in manganites adopt 3+<br />

oxidative state. The magnetic moments of 3d-ions calculated from neutron diffraction<br />

data are much less than one can expect in the ionic model where the magnetic moments<br />

should be definitely localized. One can suppose the significant part of 3d-ions magnetic<br />

moments to be in the spin glass state and not contribute therefore into the coherent<br />

magnetic scattering of neutrons. Magnetic phase diagrams have been constructed for<br />

the both systems, interpreted assuming superexchange interactions Mn 3+ -O-Cr 3+ to<br />

be positive and Mn 3+ -O-Fe 3+ negative and taking into account the disordered arrangement<br />

of Mn and Cr ions in the crystal structure sublattice. The sign of Mn 3+ -O-Mn 3+<br />

superexchange interaction is governed with a dynamic nature of Jahn-Teller effect.<br />

Magnetic phase separation phenomenon has been ascribed to the intrinsic chemical<br />

inhomogeneity of solid solutions.

In recent years magnetoelectric multiferroics, especially rare-earth manganites like<br />

TbMnO3 attracted a lot attention [1]. With the coexistence of magnetic and dielectric<br />

order in the same phase interesting coupling effects can arise in those materials.<br />

We present investigations on BaMnF4 and BaMn1 − xZnxF4. BaMnF4 is a well known<br />

material, being ferroelectric and antiferromagnetic at the same time for TN

Field-Dependent Magnetic Small-Angle Neutron Scattering in Nanomaterials<br />

When all spins in a ferromagnetic material are aligned in parallel by a sufficiently<br />

large applied magnetic field H, then magnetic small-angle neutron scattering (SANS)<br />

arises exclusively from the nonunifor<strong>mit</strong>y of the magnitude of the magnetization, due<br />

to inhomogeneous density or composition. Often, there is a significant, extra magnetic<br />

scattering when the field is insufficient to saturate the sample. In bulk samples with a<br />

nonuniform magnetic anisotropy, such as nanocrystalline materials, the extra scattering<br />

is large even when the sample is a single (macroscopic) magnetic domain, as exemplified<br />

by the figures below [1,2]. Here, the scattering originates not from the domain<br />

structure, but from the failure of the spins to align perfectly with the direction of the<br />

net magnetization. We shall discuss recent progress in understanding magnetic SANS<br />

from this spin misalignment, and in characterizing the underlying magnetic interaction<br />

terms by analysis of SANS data. The entire H- and q-dependence of d Sigma / d<br />

Omega can be understood quite generally in terms of materials parameters, saturation<br />

magnetization and exchange stiffness constant, and of the Fourier coefficients of the<br />

magnetic anisotropy field, which describe the spatial variation of the magnitude and<br />

direction of the anisotropy. By analysis of field-dependent SANS data in terms of this<br />

approach one can measure these quantities, which is more difficult or even impossible<br />

by other techniques.<br />

Lowering of the ordering temperature of FePt nanoparticles induced by<br />

He + ion irradiation<br />

Further reduction of the volume of magnetic nanostructures appears as a natural<br />

route towards the enhancement of information density stored by magnetic devices.<br />

To overcome thermal fluctuations an extremely large magnetic anisotropy energy density<br />

(∼ 10 7 J/m 3 ) is required to stabilize the magnetization of a bit coding magnetic<br />

sphere. Chemically ordered FePt particles fulfil this need. Self assembled monolayers<br />

(SAM) of ligand-stabilized FePt nanoparticles can be prepared by means of colloidal<br />

chemistry [1]. It turns out, that the as-prepared FePt nanoparticles exhibit the lowanisotropy<br />

FCC phase, which has to be transformed into the FCT phase by annealing<br />

at temperatures larger 600 ◦ C. Such a heat treatment, however, is likely to result in<br />

the formation of larger agglomerates of the as-deposited particle ensembles thereby<br />

destroying the order of the particle array. Thus, a significant decrease of the ordering<br />

temperature would be desirable to maintain the quality of the SAM. One possibility to<br />

reduce the transition temperature is the creation of vacancies and interstitials by He +<br />

ion irradiation as observed for FePt films [2].<br />

Here, we make use of a micellar method [3,4] allowing the preparation of arrays<br />

of well separated and chemically pure FePt nanoparticles (diameter 3-10 nm) with<br />

adjustable interparticle distances of 18-100 nm. In a first experiment, 9 nm FePt<br />

nanoparticles were exposed to He + ions at a dose of 10 16 ions/cm 2 . SEM images reveal<br />

that the irradiated particles are still located at the substrate surface as single units<br />

like the untreated ones. The magnetic properties of the particles are investigated by<br />

means of x-ray magnetic circular dichroism. The corresponding hysteresis loops of the<br />

particles after annealing at elevated temperatures show that as-prepared particles need<br />

to be annealed at 620 ◦ C for 30 min or higher to achieve room temperature hysteresis<br />

while the phase transformation for particles exposed to He + ions already starts around<br />

450 ◦ C.<br />

The results of molybdenum NMR and XAS measurements at the Fe and Mo K edges of<br />

the A2FeMoO6 double perovskites (DP) (A2=Sr2,SrBa,Ba2,Ca2) are reported. The information<br />

obtained on the individual site electronic and magnetic properties is analysed<br />

and discussed. The compounds studied belong to the family of materials exhibiting<br />

a huge negative magnetoresistance. Magnetoresistive properties of these compounds<br />

arise from their half-metallicity, i.e. only one spin direction being populated in the<br />

conduction band, which consists of overlapping spin down 3d Fe, 2p O and 4d Mo<br />

electron bands [1]. The molybdenum NMR measurements revealed the existence of a<br />

non-integer magnetic moment at Mo and Fe [2,3,4], which can be attributed to the<br />

DE-like interaction. The 95 Mo 97 Mo NMR measurements on Fe-Mo DP presented in<br />

this work show different values of the Mo hyperfine field and the corresponding Mo<br />

magnetic moment. This is attributed to a dependence of the Mo magnetic moment<br />

on the structural tolerance factor f related to the ionic radius of the alkaline earth.<br />

A similar dependence on f is also observed for TC. This indicates that the strength<br />

of magnetic interaction is related to the magnetic moment at the molybdenum site.<br />

X-ray absorption measurements in the XANES range provide the Fe and Mo K-edge<br />

energies correspond to intermediate valence states of Fe (Mo) between 2.5+ and 3+<br />

(between 5+ and 6+) for all the investigated compounds, with opposite tendencies of<br />

the dependence on f. For the compounds Ba2FeMoO6 and SrBaFeMoO6 a two-step<br />

feature of the absorption edge is observed. The step at higher energies is attributed<br />

to the iron valence states close to Fe 3+ , whereas the lower energy one is attributed<br />

to an intermediate Fe valence, in analogy with the XAS spectrum of Fe3O4. XANES<br />

measurements at the Mo K edge show an intermediate valence state of Mo, similarly to<br />

that reported in [7]. A change of the edge energy with f is observed, with the opposite<br />

tendency to that obtained for Fe. The results of NMR measurements are compared to<br />

those of XANES study and a relation to bulk magnetic and electrical transport properties<br />

is discussed. [1] K.-I. Kobayashi, et al., Nature 395, 677 (1998), [2] Cz. Kapusta,<br />

Für die Veränderung der makroskopischen Eigenschaften in Ferroelektrika sind die<br />

Wechselwirkungen zwischen Punktdefekten und deren Agglomeraten <strong>mit</strong> den Domänenwänden<br />

verantwortlich. Um die Ermüdungseigenschaften dieser technologisch wichtigen<br />

Materialien besser verstehen und voraussagen zu können, ist die systematische<br />

Untersuchung der Defektstruktur und der Diffusion (vor allen der Diffusion von O<br />

und O-Leerstellen) notwendig. Verschiedenartig dotierte (La, Nb, Fe, usw.) und zyklierte<br />

(ermüdete) PZT Proben wurden <strong>mit</strong> den Methoden der Positronenannihilation<br />

(Punktdefekte) und SIMS bzw. NRA (O-Diffusion) untersucht. Die Messung der<br />

Positronenlebensdauer und der Dopplerverbreiterung zeigt unterschiedliche Punktdefekte<br />

(Einzel- und Doppelleerstellen) in den Proben. Mit Hilfe der SIMS bzw. NRA<br />

Messungen werden die Diffusionskoeffiziente für Volumen- und Korngrenzendiffusion<br />

bestimmt. Die Aktivationsenthalpie stimmt <strong>mit</strong> den Ergebnissen theoretischer Berechnungen<br />

gut überein. Aus diesen Ergebnissen erhoffen wir neue Kenntnisse über die<br />

Ermüdungsmechanismen in zyklierten PZT Keramiken.

Thermal expansion coefficient of semiconductor multilayer lateral nanostructures<br />

The physical properties of III-V semiconductors, in particular lateral nanostructures,<br />

are of high interest because they are often used in electronic and optoelectronic devices.<br />

Under operation the devices may suffer from thermal expansion resulting in degradation<br />

or the creation of defects. The effects of thermal degradation are mainly investigated<br />

by trial-and error due to the luck of exact numerical data for the thermal expansion<br />

coefficient (TEC). Only values of bulk material are known which are transferred to thin<br />

layers or nanostructures without sufficient physical justification. On the other hand<br />

it has been shown that the value of TEC strongly depends on strain. Therefore its<br />

numerical value changes significantly for pseudomorphic strained layers compared to<br />

the relaxed ones [1].<br />

We have performed synchrotron radiation experiment to measure the TEC for pseudomorphically<br />

strained semiconductor multilayers before and after lateral patterning.<br />

After lateral patterning throughout the whole multilayer we expect reduction of TEC<br />

due to partial relaxation of the strained component of the multilayer. The sample<br />

we investigate are highly strained InGaAs/GaAs and InGaP/InGaAs strain-balanced<br />

multilayers. In non-patterned structures the layers are pseudomorphically strained.<br />

Due to the large lattice mismatch between the layers their in-plane lattice parameter<br />

tends to adapt to the one of the substrate while the out-of-plane lattice constant increases/decreases.<br />

This induces elastic strain at the substrate-multilayer interface. In<br />

view of the fact that the thermal expansion coefficient is proportional to the lattice<br />

constant, there arises anisotropy of the thermal expansion coefficient. The aim of the<br />

experiment is to measure the thermal expansion coefficient at different temperatures.<br />

In order to determine the thermal expansion coefficient we measured the rocking curves<br />

of the symmetric 004 reflection at different temperatures between room temperature<br />

and about 400 ◦ C. This yields the variation of the out-of-plane lattice constants. Furthermore<br />

we measured the rocking curves of an asymmetric Bragg reflection or in-plane<br />

lattice parameters at different temperatures using synchrotron radiation.<br />

The change of both lattice parameters as function of temperature are interpreted in<br />

terms of linear elasticity theory using a generalized Keating potential.<br />

An ellipsometric study on wurtzite InN, wurtzite GaN and zincblende GaN in a spectral<br />

region between 12 and 30eV using synchrotron radiation is presented. Especially<br />

for InN, relatively few experimental studies of the general optical/electronic properties<br />

have been carried out although the recently found small band gap value of 0.7 eV<br />

increases the number of possible applications for III-nitride alloys. In the VUV spectral<br />

range of 12-30eV the dielectric function is usually determined by electron energy<br />

loss rather than ellipsometry. But spectroscopic ellipsometry, however, has a superior<br />

spectral resolution and a Kramers-Kronig analysis requiring extrapolation to infinite<br />

energies is avoided. The direct determination of the complex dielectric function (DF)<br />

with ellipsometry provides full access on the linear optical response and gives valuable<br />

information about the electronic structure since the imaginary part is associated<br />

with the joint density of states. In the spectral region beyond the plasmon frequency<br />

the DF of InN and GaN is dominated by optical transitions between the In4d/Ga3dcore<br />

level and the p-like unoccupied (conduction) electron states. Thus the measured<br />

structures in the imaginary part give a characteristic view of the p-like conduction<br />

bands. The comparison between the experimental spectra and the calculated partial<br />

DOS by DFT-LDA shows an overall good agreement. By using linear polarized light in<br />

an ellipsometric measurement, the dielectric tensor components corresponding to the<br />

electric field vectors along the crystallographic axes, were separately examined. This<br />

allows a separation of direction dependent electronic contributions and thus a study of<br />

the anisotropy of the chemical bonds in hexagonal crystal structures. With an a-plane<br />

InN(1120) and a m-plane GaN(1100) film we observed a considerable polarisation dependence<br />

in the DF of hexagonal InN and GaN. That emphasizes the assumption of an<br />

anisotropy in the conduction band induced by direction dependent mixing of unoccupied<br />

p-orbitals in wurtzite crystals, yielding a pz-DOS different from the px+py-DOS.<br />

Low temperature measurements are used in order to determine the electron phonon<br />

coupling strength in GaN separately for the p-like conduction bands and the highest<br />

valence bands. At low temperature, finally, we could detect also the spin-orbit splitting<br />

of the d-bands in InN and GaN by means of synchrotron ellipsometry.

In recent years, nanowires attracted enormous interest due to their possible future<br />

applications. When the object size becomes comparable to intrinsic length scales -<br />

electron mean free path and Fermi wavelength - classical and quantum size effects are<br />

expected [1]. Both are large in bismuth compared to conventional metals, making it an<br />

ideal material to study on the nanoscale. Polycarbonate foils were irradiated with single<br />

swift heavy ions at the UNILAC linear accelerator of GSI and subsequently etched<br />

in aqeuous sodium hydroxide. By this means, single-pore membranes were created in<br />

which single bismuth nanowires were deposited electrochemically [2]. Thereafter, the<br />

wires contacted electrically while left embedded in the template [3]. The mean size<br />

of the grains building up the wires was varied systematically by employing different<br />

deposition conditions. The specific electrical resistivity is a function of the wire crystallinity.<br />

It increases for wires fabricated at lower temperatures and higher potentials,<br />

i.e., consisting of smaller grains. These findings are in qualitative agreement with theoretical<br />

models about electron scattering at grain boundaries [4]. The wire resistance as<br />

a function of the temperature was recorded, revealing a non-monotonic behaviour. It<br />

rises, exhibits a maximum, and declines when cooling down from room temperature to<br />

20 K. The resistance maximum shifts to higher temperatures for diminishing diameter<br />

and the maximum becomes the higher the smaller the mean grain size is. From the<br />

electrical resistance, the carrier mobility was deduced. While the mobility increases<br />

more than three orders of magnitude in bulk bismuth when cooling down from 300 to<br />

4 K, it saturates for nanowires at low temperatures. Being a function of mean grain size<br />

and wire diameter the mobility is one to two orders of magnitude smaller for nanowires<br />

than for the bulk.<br />

Gewöhnlich erhält man in Röntgenstreuexperimenten Informationen, die, aufgrund der<br />

großen Eindringtiefe, über mehrere Mikrometer ge<strong>mit</strong>telt sind. Durch Anregung einer<br />

stehenden Welle unter Ausnutzung des Effektes der Totalreflexion kann jedoch<br />

eine Tiefenselektion erreicht werden. Die Position der Wellenmaxima bezüglich der<br />

Schichtstruktur kann durch Änderung des Einfallswinkels eingestellt werden. Die Tiefenauflösung<br />

kann weiter erhöht werden, wenn Wellenleiterstrukturen, d.h. zwei Totalreflexionsschichten,<br />

verwendet werden. Die Kombination von Röntgenfluoreszenz und<br />

Röntgenreflektivität liefert detailierte strukturelle Informationen über das zwischen<br />

den Totalreflexionsschichten eingeschlossene Material.<br />

Hier werden die Resultate einer tiefenaufgelösten Wolfram-Fluoreszenzanalyse von<br />

Si/W/Si-Schichten vorgestellt. Die Vielfachschichten wurden am Ionenstrahllabor des<br />

Hahn-Meitner-Institutes <strong>mit</strong> 600 MeV Au Ionen bestrahlt und anschliessend an der<br />

Berliner Synchrotronstrahlungsquelle BESSY analysiert. EXAFS Messungen bei verschiedenen<br />

Werten des Impulsübertrages q, d.h. verschiedenen Intensitätsverteilungen<br />

des Wellenfeldes im Schichtsystem, liefern Informationen aus verschiedenen Tiefen.<br />

Detailierte Informationen über die verschiedenen Phasen, die als Resultat der Bestrahlung<br />

in verschiedenen Tiefen gebildet werden, können beim Verständins der Ionen-<br />

Festkörper-Wechselwirkung sehr nützlich sein. Im Fall des betrachteten Materialsystems<br />

wurden folgende Resultate aus der gleichzeitigen Anpassung der Fluoreszenzund<br />

Reflektivitätsdaten erhalten: Mit zunehmender Fluenz nimmt der Anteil der W-Si<br />

Bindungen, xW −Si, zu, gleichbedeutend <strong>mit</strong> einer voranschreitenden Durchmischung.<br />

Betrachtet man die W-Si Bindungslänge RW −Si, so muss man zwei Bereiche unterscheiden.<br />

Für niedrige Ionenfluenzen (5×10 12 Ionen/cm 2 ) ist RW −Si systematisch kleiner als<br />

für große Fluenzen (2×10 13 Ionen/cm 2 ) und nimmt <strong>mit</strong> zunehmendem Abstand von der<br />

Marker-Schicht zu. Dabei sind kürzere Bindungslängen charakteristisch für W-reiche<br />

Phasen wie W5Si3 oder W3Si, während längere Bindungslängen Si-reichen Phasen wie<br />

WSi2 zugeordnet werden. Im Fall hoher Fluenzen überwiegen W-Si Bindungen deutlich<br />

gegenüber Metallbindungen und RW −Si zeigt keine signifikante Abhängigkeit von<br />

q. Beides wird als Indiz für vollständige Durchmischung angesehen. Alle Befunde stehen<br />

im Einklang <strong>mit</strong> den Vorhersagen des Thermal-Spike-Modells. Die vorgestellte<br />

experimentelle Methode ist nicht nur geeignet die Ionen-induzierte Durchmischung an<br />

Grenzflächen von Schichtstrukturen zu untersuchen sondern ermöglicht darüber hinaus<br />

das tiefenaufgelöste Studium verschiedener Diffusionsprozesse <strong>mit</strong> einer Auflösung im<br />

Silver nanoparticles of 1.5 - 7 nm mean size formed in soda-lime glass by a combination<br />

of ion exchange and thermal processing have been studied using extended X-ray absorption<br />

spectroscopy (EXAFS) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy<br />

to explore the structural characteristica of these nanoparticles and their interface to<br />

the glass matrix. The lattice parameters of particles show a slight lattice dilatation<br />

as well as a distinct size-dependent contraction that depends on the amount of iron<br />

oxide in the glasses. Temperature-dependent EXAFS spectra (10 K to 300 K) at the<br />

Ag K-edge evaluated on the basis of an anharmonic Einstein model indicate an increasing<br />

thermal expansion coefficient for Ag nanoparticles with decreasing size. By<br />

combination of dilatometric data of the matrix and EXAFS parameters of embedded<br />

nanoparticles their state of stress can be qualitatively explained.<br />

Averaged Ag-Ag coordination numbers derived from the respective particle sizes are<br />

used, together with the known Ag-O coordination number of matrix silver ions, to<br />

model the EXAFS-based coordination numbers of Ag species in the glass samples.<br />

With that a structural model of the particle-glass interface has been developed under<br />

the assumption of Ag-Ag interactions across the interface.

Es ist uns gelungen, durch Aktivierung von Gold-Silikatgläsern <strong>mit</strong> Synchrotronstrahlung<br />

ortsaufgelöst Nukleationszentren auf nicht-thermischem Wege zu generieren, die<br />

im Verlauf einer anschließenden thermischen Behandlung zu Gold-Nanopartikeln definierter<br />

Größe und Verteilung wachsen [1]. Um den Einfluss der Synchrotronstrahlung<br />

auf die Oxidationszahl zu untersuchen, haben wir Au-L3-XANES-Messungen<br />

durchgeführt. Bei der Untersuchung von Gold-Nanopartikeln im ppm-Bereich hat sich<br />

die XANES-Spektroskopie insbesondere in der qualitativen Analyse von Oxidationszuständen<br />

als sehr geeignete Methode bewährt. Zum Vergleich wurden als Referenzmaterialien<br />

ein Goldfilm <strong>mit</strong> einer Schichtdicke von 40 nm auf Quarzglas, Gold(I)-cyanid<br />

sowie Gold(III)-oxid untersucht. Von einer <strong>mit</strong> Gold dotierten Glasprobe wurde ein<br />

XANES-Spektrum in einem <strong>mit</strong> Synchrotronstrahlung aktivierten Bereich aufgenommen.<br />

Dieses Spektrum sollte sich aus den Referenzspektren additiv zusammensetzen.<br />

Deshalb wurden die Spektren des Goldfilms und des Gold(III)-oxids in unterschiedlicher<br />

Gewichtung addiert und <strong>mit</strong> dem Glasprobenspektrum verglichen (Abb. 1). Als Ergebnis<br />

geht nun hervor, dass der Kantenbereich des Spektrums des Gold-Silikatglases und<br />

des reinen Goldfilms sehr gut übereinstimmen. Die white line bei 11922 eV deutet auf<br />

einen Gold(III)-Nebenanteil im Glas hin. Weiterhin wurde der Oxidationszustand in<br />

ultradünnen Gold(III)-dotierten Glasschichten (Sol-Gel-Methode) untersucht. Hierbei<br />

konnte erstmals <strong>mit</strong> Au-L3-XANES der Übergang von dreiwertigem Gold zu elementaren<br />

Gold-Nanopartikeln nach einer thermischen Behandlung beobachtet werden.<br />

Gold clusters can be generated on demand in metal doped silicate glasses by a newly developed<br />

non-thermal activation process based on synchrotron radiation. Nanosized gold<br />

particles were obtained in soda lime silicate glasses containing 0.01 mol% Gold(III)chloride.<br />

Gold nanoparticles grow during annealing up to 30 min at 550 ◦ C in regions<br />

previously irradiated with 32 keV X-rays. The nanoparticles can be probed by their<br />

characteristic surface plasmon resonance in the UV/Vis spectrum [1]. In co-operation<br />

with Dr. Bernd Löchel of the Anwenderzentrum für Mikrosystemtechnologie (AZM),<br />

we also succeeded recently to write plasmonic microstructures into the glass by exposure<br />

through an x-ray mask. Small plasmonic metal clusters in transparent matrices<br />

could play an important role in optoelectronics.<br />

Our goal is the measurement of the optical characteristics of the so produced metal<br />

clusters as a function of the size, shape, topology and the dielectric environment as well<br />

as their optimization for the use in optoelectronic circuits. As a check of the cluster sizes<br />

and thus for the controlling of the optical characteristics of our materials it is necessary<br />

to understand the growth process of the metal particles. Therefore homogeneity, size<br />

distributions and thus the growth of the clusters were examined by (anomalous) small<br />

angle x-ray scattering ((A)SAXS) as a function of the temperature and duration of the<br />

thermal treatment of the glasses. After background subtraction, the scattering curves<br />

were fit with the spherical particle model by the maximum entropy method. Figure 1<br />

shows the differential volume fraction size distributions for two annealing times. It can<br />

be seen that nanoparticle size and volume fraction increase with annealing time and<br />

that very sharp size distributions were achieved.<br />

Organic/inorganic interfaces have attracted considerable attention due to their potential<br />

technological applications and because of fundamental research interest. Currently<br />

research is not only li<strong>mit</strong>ed to structural analysis but extended to intentional structural<br />

control aiming at the fabrication of molecule based nano-structures on inorganic<br />

substrates in order to take advantage of the anisotropic physical molecular properties,<br />

for instance, the anisotropic conductivity and the anisotropic light emission. One intriguing<br />

way of controlling the in-plane orientation of organic molecules on inorganic<br />

substrates is by designing the geometric structure of the substrate surface, e.g. by<br />

the steps and terraces of vicinal silicon. Near Edge X-ray Absorption Fine Structure<br />

(NEXAFS) investigations of CuPc deposition on hydrogen passivated vicinal Si(111)-<br />

7x7 clearly reveal that CuPc molecules form structures aligned parallel to the step edges<br />

on the substrates with individual molecules laying flat on the terraces. On the other<br />

hand, on antimony (Sb)-passivated vicinal Si(111) surfaces the individual molecules<br />

are taking a standing upright geometry and the columns of CuPc lie predominantly<br />

parallel to the step edge direction. The influence of structural and molecular orientation<br />

on the electronic properties of such highly ordered CuPc thin films on differently<br />

passivated vicinal silicon surfaces is revealed by core-level and valence PhotoEmission<br />

Spectroscopy (PES). By comparison of NEXAFS and PES results with scanning<br />

tunneling microscopy images we can state that the two different chemical passivation<br />

techniques result in totally different electronic structures in the CuPc thin films on the<br />

well-defined vicinal silicon surfaces. This provides an interesting perspective for better<br />

control of the electronic properties of CuPc thin film on silicon surfaces with a view to<br />

applications.

We study the adsorption of different aromatic molecules such as phthalocyanines and<br />

perylene derivatives on Cu(111) and Ag(111) using the X-ray standing wave (XSW)<br />

technique. Element specific structural information of high precision is derived from<br />

the analysis of XSW yield measurements. Using the core-level photoelectron signals<br />

we show that the molecules adsorb in a lying-down configuration, but with different<br />

distances relative to the metal substrate.<br />

The binding distances between the aromatic ring structure and the metal substrate<br />

are generally found to be larger than covalent bond lengths. Furthermore, we discuss<br />

more subtle effects as e.g. deformations of the adsorbed molecules [1] that are related<br />

to the charge (re)distribution at the interface, which can be discussed in terms of rehybridization.<br />

We also discuss our approach of analyzing non-dipolar contributions to<br />

the XPS signal [2]. Finally, we discuss recent attempts to determine the bending of<br />

aromatic ring structures based on chemical shift in the XPS signal.<br />

In the present work, results on different Cu/Ni heterostructures studied by high kinetic<br />

energy photoelectron spectroscopy are presented. Core level shifts are found as a function<br />

of the Cu layer thickness within the multilayer structure as well as a function of<br />

the interface type between the copper and nickel. The multilayer samples were grown<br />

on MgO(001). Each sample begins with a buffer layer composed of Fe, Pt, Cu and<br />

Ni in order to preserve the (001) orientation. While the thickness of the Ni layer was<br />

fixed at 5 ML, the thickness of the Cu layer varied. Three samples are studied for<br />

Cu thicknesses of 2 ML, 4 ML and 5 ML. The measured core level shifts are found to<br />

confirm theoretical calculations of these systems [1, 2]. The multilayer structures were<br />

subsequently heated and we have been able to study the destruction of the layered<br />

structures from the core photoelectron chemical shifts. Thus we have developed a new<br />

non destructive tool to study the quality of deeply buried interfaces. This study may<br />

therefore have considerable technical and commercial applicability.<br />

Ion beam implantation is one of the major technologies in the semiconductor industry.<br />

Although there have been a lot of technological applications, there is relatively little<br />

known about the structural changes of semiconductors after ion beam implantation at<br />

low doses. The focused ion beam implantation technique opens a way to manipulate<br />

the device structure locally, on a length scale of a few 10 nm. Of particular interest is<br />

the creation of lateral nanostructures by writing any pattern directly into the substrate.<br />

We report on the strain and defect analysis of two dimensional dot lattice structures<br />

that were produced in GaAs and Si (001) substrates using a 10 14 cm −2 dose Ga +<br />

focused ion beam at an energy of 25 keV. The spot size of the focused ion beam was<br />

below 50 nm. The structural analysis of the samples was performed utilizing the method<br />

of high resolution X-ray grazing-incidence diffraction at the ID01 and ID10 beam lines<br />

of the ESRF.<br />

X-ray grazing incidence diffraction is a scattering method which combines in-plane<br />

Bragg diffraction and out-of plane reflectivity under the condition of X-ray total external<br />

reflection from crystalline surfaces. The formation of an evanescent wave propagating<br />

parallel but close to the sample surface opens the possibility to probe crystalline<br />

surface structures. Moreover, it is possible to change the X-ray penetration depth by<br />

tuning the incidence angle in the vicinity of the critical angle αc (the angle at which<br />

the X-ray wave starts to penetrate the sample). The use of a laterally periodic wire<br />

structure generated on cubic materials makes possible a separate analysis of strain<br />

and damage profiles by measuring two symmetry-equivalent in-plane Bragg reflections.<br />

Additionally, periodic structure allows us to measure very low strain fields.<br />

We performed a detailed structural analysis of the implanted nanostructures that have<br />

a small modulation of the lattice constant only and do not possess any measurable<br />

density contrast. Therefore, such studies, operating at the resolution li<strong>mit</strong>, are only<br />

possible using very high brilliant beam lines at 3rd generation synchrotrons.

Nanopattering at the metal and semiconductor surfaces by ion-beam irradiation has<br />

attracted significant technological interest due to possibility for the fabrication of novel<br />

nanodevices [1,2]. Recently has been shown, that structural features of the irradiated<br />

Si crystals and, especially, crystalline ripples can be studied at the 3rd generation synchrotron<br />

radiation sources [3]. In particular, the near-surface ripples pattern can be<br />

characterized by depth resolved x-ray grazing incidence diffraction (GID). The GID<br />

intensity profiles show the presence of satellite peaks on both sides of the main (220)<br />

Bragg peak. The appearance of satellite peaks confirms the existence of lateral undulation<br />

of the buried crystalline part of the sample. Additionally to the crystalline part, the<br />

amorphization process is very important to understand an amorphous-crystalline interfacial<br />

and a ripple formation mechanism. Amorphization features depending on the<br />

irradiation dose were probed by means of x-ray grazing amorphous scattering (GIAS).<br />

Two broad peaks of the GIAS profiles indicate short-range ordering of amorphous material<br />

of the irradiated samples. GIAS profiles taken under different azimuthal angles<br />

display a strong anisotropy of the amorphous scattering. A strong damage of crystalline<br />

structures takes place along particular crystallographic directions at low doses<br />

of irradiation. A complete, mostly uniform amorphization is eminent at high doses of<br />

irradiation. This mechanism can be used for a better understanding of the formation<br />

of subsurface amorphous-crystalline ripples.<br />

The process of self-organized growth of quantum dots (QD) in Stranski-Krastanow<br />

mode is affected not only by elastic properties of the substrate material, but also<br />

by physical properties of the surface. Thus, for GaAs (100) surface, due to the 2x4<br />

reconstruction oriented along (01-1) direction the diffusion length in this direction<br />

is higher than for the elastically equal (011) direction. As a result, in the case of<br />

multilayer InGaAs QD structures under the certain growth conditions [1,2], QD are<br />

arranged in chains in (01-1) direction, demonstrating an excellent vertical correlation<br />

as well. The diffusion length, and so the type of ordering, could be effectively controlled<br />

by introducing the surface steps perpendicular to (01-1) direction, or, in other words,<br />

introducing so-called high-index surfaces with controlled miscut towards the (01-1) insurface<br />

direction. The surface steps on these surfaces play the role of potential barriers<br />

for the material transfer.<br />

In order to probe the 3D ordering of QD lattices x-ray diffuse scattering has been<br />

monitored three-dimensionally by a special multi-detection technique using a CCD<br />

detector [3]. The experiments have been carried out on beamlines W1 and BW2 at<br />

HASYLAB/DESY. The surfaces under investigation are GaAs (100) and GaAs (n11)B,<br />

where n is equal to 9, 7, 5, 4 and 3. The high index surfaces are tilted towards (111)B<br />

surface which forms B-type steps running along [011]-direction.<br />

In the talk we will demonstrate that all the samples under investigation show a complex<br />

3D regular QD structure. Vertical ordering is mainly stress-determined, and the angle<br />

of the vertical inheritance varies non-monotonically between two li<strong>mit</strong>ing cases of (100)<br />

and (111)B surface orientation. Pplanar QD ordering is essentially determined by the<br />

surface anisotropy of material-transfer. We may contend that the planar ordering<br />

evolves from a linear one for (100) surface to an almost rectangular one for the (911)B<br />

surface through the set of rhombic- like unit cells and the angle of the rhombus opening<br />

angle θ, which depends linearly on the surface step density. The best regularity of the<br />

QD structure have been established for the (411)B surface. All the above-mentioned<br />

opens the way for controlled processing of highly ordered 3D QD structures with known<br />

parameters.<br />

A novel technique for investigations of spatially ordered nickel nanowires embedded<br />

into aluminum oxide films is proposed. The aluminum oxide films are considered to<br />

be a promising candidate for data storage devices. An aluminum plate is oxidized<br />

and the layer (∼ 200µm) of Al2O3 is then exploited for producing of the hexagonal<br />

structure of pores. These pores are treated by C2H2O4 during 100 hours. Nickel is<br />

electro-chemically introduced inside these pores.<br />

The polarized SANS experiments were carried out at the SANS-2 scattering facility<br />

of the FRG-1 research reactor in Geesthacht (Germany). An external magnetic<br />

field of 1-300 mT was applied in the horizontal plane: perpendicular or parallel to<br />

the incident beam. For SAPNS, in general, the cross-section of polarized neutrons<br />

consists of nuclear and magnetic contributions, as well as a nuclear-magnetic interference<br />

scattering. We determine the total (nuclear and magnetic) scattering as:<br />

I(q) = (I(q, P0) + I(q, −P0)). The polarisation dependent part of the scattering is<br />

determined as ∆I(q) = (I(q, P0)I(q, −P0)) of the intensities for neutrons polarized<br />

parallel (+) and anti-parallel (-) to the magnetic field.<br />

In our experiments the typical SANS curve contains also the Bragg peak corresponding<br />

to the scattering on the regular structure of pores in the aluminum oxide matrix. The<br />

introduction of nickel into the matrix does not shift the position of the Bragg peak what<br />

makes clear that the matrix was not destroyed by the introduction. The scattering in<br />

the small angle range and at the Bragg position increases significantly for the samples<br />

with Ni as compared to empty Al2O3 matrix and it depends on the magnetic field.<br />

The field-dependent scattering intensity was extracted as IH(q) = I(q, H) − I(q, 0).<br />

The field dependent part IH(q) averaged over the Bragg peak demonstrates a complex<br />

hysteretic behavior, which is attributed to the formation of the spacially ordered system<br />

of magnetic nanowires. The positive nuclear-magnetic interference ∆I(q) was observed<br />

over the whole q-range under study but no or negative interference is visible at the<br />

Bragg peak. The interference term shows the correlations existing in system between<br />

nuclear and magnetic objects and it is proportional to the average magnetization of<br />

the system.<br />

In conclusion, the study demonstrates possibility of SAPNS for investigation of the<br />

spatially ordered magnetic nanowires embedded into diamagnetic matrix.

Anomalous small-angle X-ray scattering investigation of Ru-Se catalysts<br />

supported on carbon<br />

Carbon supported catalysts for use in fuel-cells based on ruthenium and selenium have<br />

been prepared at the Hahn-Meitner-Institut in the department solar energy research<br />

SE5. They are already tested to be promising catalysts. The aim behind this elements<br />

instead of the platinum is expense factor and the deposit of the materials. Another<br />

advantage of ruthenium and selenium is the possibility to use them in direct methanol<br />

fuel cells (DMFC). Platnium is not useable in this case.<br />

By studying the electrochemical behaviour and comparing it to the atomic structure<br />

analysed by using EXAFS, XANES, TEM and XRD, many open questions remain [1,2].<br />

One of the main open question is the real nanostructure, which is up to now unclear.<br />

Particularly the selenium is important because the catalytic efficiency depends strongly<br />

on the content of the selenium and also most probably on its bonds to ruthenium and<br />

carbon. Up to now it is clear that most ruthenium form spherical particals with a<br />

diameters of about 1nm to 8 nm dispersed on the surface of the black pearls (carbon).<br />

Catalysts supported on porous materials like black perls (carbon) are a three phase<br />

system (support, voids and metal). The use of synchrotron radiation allows to seperate<br />

the scattering of the support from the one of the metal by taking advantage of the socalled<br />

anomalous or resonant behavior of the atomic scattering amplitude of an element<br />

near its absorption edge [3, 4].<br />

A complete set of samples have been measured at the SAXS instrument (7T-WLS-<br />

SAXS) at BESSY in Berlin. This means that we measured the final catalysts contains<br />

ruthenium, selenium and the support (carbon). We also measured the carbon support<br />

only and carbon samples which contains ruthenium only or selenium only on the support.<br />

To seperate the scattering of the metals from the strong scattering of the porous<br />

carbon particle, which have a diameter of about 50nm (internal surface ∼ 1800 m 2 /<br />

g BET), combined measurments with X-ray energies near the Ru-K and Se-K X-ray<br />

absorption edges have been performed. The ASAXS measurement should help to localize<br />

the selenium which could mainly perform a shell surrounding the ruthenium or<br />

distributed somewhere in the samples.<br />

Results of structural research on a beam of free clusters are reported.<br />

We have carried out scans of the partial ion yield from H2O clusters along the O<br />

K-edge. Since recently the NEXAFS spectrum of liquid water along the O K-edge<br />

was reported [1] and interpreted with far reaching conclusions on the local structure,<br />

it should be of great interest to compare to clusters. Results for the fragments from<br />

clusters show features of both hexagonal, four-fold coordinated and broken-bond, threefold<br />

coordinated structures in the interpretation of [1].<br />

In NeAr heteroclusters, we can demonstrate a process of electronic relaxation by<br />

autoionization, which allows the identification of nearest neighbor relationships in noncovalently<br />

bonded systems from the kinetic energy of the autoionization electron. This<br />

process was predicted in theoretical work and termed ICD (Interatomic Coulombic<br />

Decay) [2]. Transitions of this type should exist in all or most van der Waals and<br />

hydrogen bridge bonded systems.<br />

The interaction between most large organic molecules in the solid state is commonly<br />

believed to be solely due to electrostatic and van–der–Waals forces. An analysis of<br />

these intermolecular effects requires a comparison of high–quality spectroscopic data of<br />

gaseous and condensed organic molecules. We present high–resolution NEXAFS spectra<br />

of organic molecules with aromatic ring systems (naphthalene, NTCDA (1,4,5,8–<br />

naphthalene–tetracarboxylic acid dianhydride) and ANQ (acenaphthenequinone)) in<br />

the gas phase and solid state.<br />

For the NTCDA and ANQ gas phase experiments a new experimental set–up has been<br />

used that allows the measurement of free molecules with high sublimation temperatures.<br />

A detailed Franck–Condon analysis of the vibronic fine structure of the NTCDA<br />

spectra at the C–K edge yields consistent results for both phases. In contrast, pronounced<br />

differences in the electronic features between gas phase and condensate can be<br />

demonstrated. This corroborates the results for ANQ that also suggest an involvement<br />

of the π ∗ –orbitals of the aromatic core in the intermolecular interaction. Our findings<br />

thus indicate that intermolecular forces can be much stronger than commonly believed<br />

and may cause the formation of intermolecular bonds.<br />

Moreover, we will present results of NEXAFS investigations on naphthalene and fully<br />

deuterated naphthalene in the gas phase [1]. The differences in the spectroscopic signatures<br />

of the two isotopes strongly suggest significant contributions of C–H (C–D)<br />

and C–C vibrational modes in contrast to theoretical results [2]. This is corroborated<br />

by a comparison with similar spectra of (deuterated) benzene, which allows the identification<br />

of at least two C–H (C–D) modes and one C–C mode.<br />

As-grown thin epitaxial Fe3Si films fabricated by molecular beam epitaxy on GaAs(001)<br />

are studied by grazing incidence x-ray diffraction. The long-range order parameters<br />

of the films of different stoichiometry are determined by measuring fundamental and<br />

superlattice crystal truncation rods and comparing them to simulations in dynamical<br />

approximation. Two order parameters, associated with the degree of migration of Si<br />

atoms into different Fe sublattices, are obtained. A residual intermixing of the sublattices<br />

is found, even near complete stoichiometry. The relative positions of the Fe3Si<br />

and GaAs lattices are determined. Fe atoms in Fe3Si are located at the positions of the<br />

Ga atoms in GaAs, with an additional shift of 0.1±0.04 ˚A of the tetragonally distorted<br />

Fe3Si lattice normal to the interface.<br />

Figure 1 combines crystal truncation rod scans performed at different bulk reflections<br />

on one of the samples. The layer peak is fairly close to the substrate peak, indicating<br />

that the sample is nearly stoichiometric. The 004 and 022 reflections are not<br />

sensitive to disorder. The 002 and 222 reflections are influenced by disorder in the<br />

Fe(A,C) sublattice, and the 111, 311, and 113 reflections are sensitive to disorder in<br />

both sublattices Fe(B) and Fe(A,C). All measured curves were fitted simultaneously by<br />

dynamical diffraction calculations. We obtain the order parameters from the relative<br />

intensities of the layer peaks (with the substrate peak serving as an internal reference),<br />

the layer thickness from the oscillation period and the registry of the lattices from the<br />

phase of the oscillations. We find that the as-grown Fe3Si layer is not fully ordered,<br />

although it is nearly stoichiometric. Approximately 30 % of Si has left its sublattice D<br />

and exchanged with the Fe(A,C) atoms. The Si atoms did not exchange with a Fe(B)<br />

atoms.<br />

Understanding and controlling chemical reactions involving nanoparticles are important<br />

milestones for future nanotechnologies and for the enhanced performance of catalysts<br />

used in many applications. One key phenomenon is the oxidation behavior of<br />

metal nanoparticles under industrially and environmentally relevant conditions, which<br />

needs to be understood on a microscopic level.<br />

We report in this work the results of the in-situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction study<br />

of the high-pressure and high-temperature oxidation of Pd nanoparticles supported<br />

on ZnO(001) substrates. These particles grow as truncated triangular bi-pyramid,<br />

restricted by (111), (100) and (110) type of free faces [1]. We have observed the reversible<br />

changes of the morphology of the particle facets vs. oxygen pressure (pO2 <<br />

10 −4 mbar), however neither ( √ 5 × √ 5)R27 ◦ nor ( √ 6 × √ 6) surface oxides have been<br />

found, which form during the oxidation of Pd(100) and Pd(111) single crystalline surfaces,<br />

respectively [2, 3].<br />

The details of the bulk oxide formation have been obtained and compared with the<br />

results for Pd(100) [4] and Pd(111) [5] single crystalline surfaces and for Pd nanopaticles<br />

deposited on other types of substrates, such as α-Al2O3(001) and MgO(001) [6]. We<br />

demostrate that bulk PdO grows in the case of ZnO(001) - supported Pd nanoparticles<br />

at much lower pressures than for the other mentioned systems. We suggested that this<br />

feature is related to the polar nature of ZnO(001) surface.<br />

Free clusters and nanoparticles are not just small pieces of material with physical<br />

properties nearly identical to the bulk. Their electronic, optical and magnetic properties<br />

are clearly size-dependent with a non-linear behaviour between the two general<br />

li<strong>mit</strong>s given by the atomic and the bulk-like behaviour [1]. In this contribution we<br />

compare the magnetic properties of mass-filtered Fe, Co and FeCo nanoparticles being<br />

deposited onto different epitaxially grown thin films. The crystallographic structure<br />

and morphology of the particles have been determined independently by means of<br />

electron diffraction and high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM),<br />

respectively (cf. Fig. 1). The magnetic moments of the clusters have been measured<br />

in situ via X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) as well as magnetic circular dichroism<br />

(XMCD) after deposition onto ferromagnetic films. Moreover we will discuss the<br />

presence of self-saturation effects in the nanoparticle spectra (cf. Fig. 2).<br />

With the help of X-ray standing waves (XSW) it is possible to characterize thin films,<br />

layered structures and surface depositions as well as element concentration distributions<br />

on a nanometer scale. XSW measurements are fast, easy and element specific. However,<br />

several elements can be observed simultaneously by an energy dispersive detector. The<br />

obtained curves represent a characterization in depth of the layer-structure and element<br />

distribution of the observed samples. XSW can be performed on conducting and nonconducting<br />

samples, and vacuum is not necessary in most cases. The existence of one or<br />

several reflecting interfaces is virtually the only condition to the sample. Thus samples<br />

can be characterized with little preparation.<br />

Synchrotron radiation as photon source for XSW measurements has several advantages:<br />

The photon flux is much higher than the flux from an X-ray tube, the photon<br />

energy can be chosen in a wide range from below 1 keV to more than 30 keV to<br />

utilize the energy most suitable for a certain kind of sample, and radiation is sufficiently<br />

monochromatic and longitudinally coherent enough to generate the desired<br />

X-ray Standing Waves.<br />

Various types of thin film and multilayer samples have been observed at DELTA synchrotron,<br />

Dortmund, using XSW. Together with several analyzing computer programs<br />

developed in the framework of this project, measurements and results of thickness,<br />

periodicity and element composition will be presented.<br />

Semiconductor nanoparticles are of increasing interest for both, applied and fundamental<br />

research. Besides applications in material science, they are used as markers in<br />

biology and for cancer treatment. Nanoparticles in the diameter range from 1-5 nm are<br />

of particular interest in fundamental research since they represent a size scale between<br />

solid state and molecular physics which is difficult to investigate.<br />

The structural, electronic optical and magnetic properties of particles in this size<br />

range are very often not known and understood. Even a precise determination of<br />

basic geometrical parameters like the size and shape is difficult. Potentially, diffraction<br />

methods are able to provide complete structural information, but common analysis<br />

methods do not yield sufficiently precise results in the particle range below 5 nm.<br />

We present a new approach for the analysis of synchrotron radiation diffraction data<br />

(XRD) obtained from small particles. The experiments were performed at HASYLAB,<br />

Hamburg. The entire particle is modeled, and its diffraction pattern is computed using<br />

the Debye formula. This allows us to address not only fundamental parameters like size<br />

and crystal structure, but also shape, stress, relaxation effects, and stacking faults. In<br />

contrast to common analysis methods these essential structural features are explicitly<br />

taken into account as intrinsic parameters of the nanoparticle model. An ensembleaveraging<br />

is performed and hence the parameter distributions, most prominent the size<br />

distribution of the particles, can be determined. This is enabled by using a stochastic<br />

fit algorithm.<br />

Furthermore, we report on photoelectron spectroscopy experiments (PES) performed<br />

at BESSY, Berlin. The use of synchrotron radiation at different wavelength allows<br />

to vary the surface sensitivity of the measurement. Additionally core level shifts are<br />

utilized to identify different atomic species, for example atoms with different chemical<br />

bonds and in different coordinations. The combination of a quantitative analysis of<br />

chemically different species with that of their bulk- vs. surface sensitivity is utilized<br />

to determine the location of various atoms within the nanoparticle. This approach has<br />

been applied in detail to CdS particles resulting in an atomic model which is consistent<br />

with the XRD results.<br />

We believe that our two approaches enable a new access to detailed structural parameters<br />

of small nanoparticles and improve the knowledge about growth mechanism and<br />

particle formation.

Triblock copolymers are known to adopt nano-separated structures in case of immiscibility<br />

of the individual blocks. For the triblock copolymer styrene-isoprene-styrene<br />

of different block lengths highly ordered structures like lamellae, spheres or cylinders<br />

have been found. The different morphologies have a great impact on the mechanical<br />

properties of these materials.<br />

The system under investigation is a blend of styrene-b-isoprene-b-styrene (SIS) triblock<br />

copolymer with styrene-b-isoprene-(SI) diblock copolymer. Additional a naphtenic oil<br />

and an antioxidant are added components of the mixture.<br />

Polymer films were prepared from toluene solution on glass slides by two different<br />

procedures. On the one hand spin-coating technique was applied and on the other<br />

hand films were solution casted and dried. The obtained films differ markedly in<br />

thickness: 340 nm for the spin-coated film and 100 µm for the solution-casted film.<br />

Grazing incidence small angle scattering (GISAXS) has been chosen as it is a nondestructive<br />

probe allowing scattering with statistical information not only on the surface<br />

illuminated, but also on the bulk sample. The GISAXS measurements were performed<br />

at the beamline BW4 of the HASYLAB/DESY in Hamburg.<br />

Major goal of the comparison of thin and thick SIS/SI blend films is the separation of<br />

bulk and surface structures, where it has to be taken in account that the 2D GISAXS<br />

pattern is in fact the superposition of the bulk and the surface scattering signal.<br />

A typical indication of bulk structures with a powder like orientation is the occurrence<br />

of ring shaped intensity centered around the direct beam, which is most prominent for<br />

the solution casted sample. In contrast, the diffuse scattering from the thin spin-coated<br />

film is dominated by the presence of a side maxima close to the Yoneda peak, indicating<br />

a highly ordered surface structure. It is also weakly present in the scattering from the<br />

thick film. From the 2D detector pattern with a cut at constant scattering angle ψ =0<br />

correlation with structures perpendicular to the surface can be obtained. In an outof-plane<br />

cut at constant exident angle af at the critical angle of polystyrene in-plane<br />

structures can be allocated. Additionally cake cuts centered around the direct beam<br />

have been performed which is equivalent to SAXS treatment of data.<br />

Model structures based on the scattering results for the spin-coated and the solutioncasted<br />

SIS/SI blend are presented.

Using a continuous particle beam we have studied inner shell excitations in free nano<br />

particles when they were exposed to monochromatic synchrotron radiation. This approach<br />

goes beyond related work, where elastic light scattering has been studied in the<br />

vacuum ultraviolet regime [1,2]. It is also complementary to single, trapped nanoparticles<br />

that have been studied by synchrotron radiation in the soft x-ray regime [3]. Our<br />

particles were transferred into the gas phase by an aerosol generator. An additional<br />

differential mobilisation analyser (DMA) made it possible to generate a continuous<br />

beam of size selected nano particles that was focussed into the vacuum chamber by<br />

an aerodynamical lens. This approach allowed us to prepare free nano particles which<br />

were produced by colloidal chemistry. We have measured the total electron yield in<br />

order to characterise the electronic structure of nano particles in the region of their<br />

inner shell excitations.<br />

First experiments were performed on size selected NaCl nano particles (radius: 50-175<br />

nm) in the region of the Cl 2p and the Na 1s excitation. Measurements in the region<br />

around the O 1s absorption threshold show that these particles contain only little<br />

water. In contrast, nanoscopic salt particles (Na2SO4·10 H2O) that contain chemically<br />

combined water show a significant absorption in this region which might be of interest<br />

to study the binding structure of such water. In addition, we have studied the influence<br />

of coatings to the electronic structure of free core-shell particles. Here we used ZnS<br />

particles (radius = 60 nm) with a 5 nm SiO2 shell.<br />

Electron localization and correlation are important factors determining the electronic<br />

structure of 3d transition metals. In free 3d transition metal atoms, Coulomb interaction<br />

of the 2p core hole with the localized 3d electrons leads to multiplet splitting of the<br />

L2,3 absorption lines. In bulk transition metals, valence electrons are partially delocalized.<br />

In addition, multiplet splitting might be masked by line broadening. The issue of<br />

electron localization/delocalization and correlation in the transition from single atoms<br />

to bulk metals can ideally be addressed in the investigation of size-selected transition<br />

metal clusters. So far, however, the 3d multiplet structure in L2,3 X-ray absorption of<br />

deposited small metals clusters has not been observed neither on metal nor on HOPG<br />

substrates. We report here on the first study of the multiplet structure of small, mass<br />

selected chromium and cobalt clusters deposited on thin potassium films as well as on<br />

Cu(100). Potassium films were chosen as substrates, since 3d transition metal impurity<br />

atoms on alkali metal films show highly localized atomic configurations. A preliminary<br />

analysis of the experimental data suggests that the same atomic-like components might<br />

also be visible in small clusters.<br />

In addition to investigations on mass selcted, deposited clusters, first results on X-ray<br />

absorption spectroscopy on free transition metal clusters will be presented.

How to organize complex materials at the nano-scale is investigated with neutron<br />

grazing incidence techniques (specular reflection, off-specular scattering and grazing<br />

incidence small angle scattering). A “smart” method based on the principle of selforganization<br />

is employed to construct new nano-composite materials containing a high<br />

density of magnetic nano-particles arranged into well ordered regular block-copolymer<br />

lamellar structures. We investigated how the particle concentration and particle size<br />

affect the architecture of the composite film. New morphologies predicted theoretically<br />

[1] are obtained and explored in our studies. The creation of the nano-sheets was followed<br />

up to the destruction of the ordering of the nanoparticles and of the polymer<br />

lamellar structure. We show that the details of the internal structure of composite films<br />

are encoded in the two-dimensional map of the intensity scattered by the film and can<br />

be extracted via the quantitative data analysis. A dedicated theoretical approach based<br />

on the distorted-wave Born approximation (DWBA) is developed for the analysis of the<br />

full two-dimensional intensity. This approach will be applied to a wide range of technologically<br />

important systems and can be used to design novel composite architectures.<br />

Zinc-meso-tetraphenylporphyrin (ZnTPP) layers are used in organic opto-electronic devices<br />

such as organic light e<strong>mit</strong>ting devices (OLEDs) and organic photovoltaic (OPV)<br />

solar cells as p-conducting active layer [1-2]. The dielectric properties of those layers<br />

are crucial for the functionality of opto-electronic devices. Here we present the<br />

dielectric function of ZnTPP in the range from 0.73 eV to 9.6 eV determined by Spectroscopic<br />

Ellipsometry. The layers for this study were grown by Organic Molecular<br />

Beam Deposition (OMBD) on silicon substrates. In the range from 0.73 eV to<br />

5.0 eV the characterization was performed by Variable Angle Spectroscopic Ellipsometry<br />

(VASE). The results show an anisotropic behaviour. The tilt angle of the molecules<br />

with respect to the substrate was determined to be (29 ± 3) ◦ . This was verified by infrared<br />

spectroscopy. Measurements in the range from 4.0 eV to 9.6 eV were performed<br />

at the Vacuum-Ultraviolet-Ellipsometry beamline at the synchrotron radiation source<br />

BESSY II. At an energy of 6.4 eV a strong absorption feature appears, which was not<br />

reported before. Measurements with synchrotron radiation in the VUV energy range<br />

are more sensitive for ultra-thin films due to the smaller wavelength. Results of ultrathin<br />

ZnTPP films investigated at BESSY II are presented.<br />

Der Einfluß von unoxidiertem Mg auf die Spinpolarisation der elektronischen<br />

Bandstruktur an der Fe(001)/MgO Grenzfläche<br />

Wir berichten über neue Ergebnisse zur Spinpolarisation an der Grenzfläche des Systems<br />

Fe(001)/MgO, die <strong>mit</strong>tels spinaufgelöster Valenzband-Photoemissionsspektroskopie<br />

an dem Undulatorstrahlrohr des <strong>Forschung</strong>szentrums Jülich in Dortmund (DEL-<br />

TA) erzielt worden sind. Die durchgeführten Untersuchungen zeigen eine deutliche<br />

Änderung der Spinpolarisation der elektronischen Bandstruktur, wenn die Zusammensetzung<br />

der MgO-Schicht von der idealen Stöchiometrie abweicht und sind von Bedeutung<br />

für das grundlegende Verständnis von Systemen, die einen spinabhängigen Widerstand<br />

in Schichtstrukturen <strong>mit</strong> einer Tunnelbarriere zeigen, den so genannten Tunnelmagnetowiderstandseffekt<br />

(TMR-Effekt). Das TMR-System Fe/MgO/Fe zeichnet sich<br />

vor allem durch seine Epitaxie aus, die theoretischen Modellen [1,2] zur Folge TMR-<br />

Änderungen bis zu mehreren 100 % erlaubt. Die ersten Messungen an entsprechenden<br />

Schichtstrukturen <strong>mit</strong> hohen TMR Werten (180 % bzw. 220 % bei Raumtemperatur) erfolgten<br />

2004 in den Gruppen von Yuasa und Parkin[3,4]. Im Vordergrund der Diskussion<br />

stand dabei der Einfluß der Struktur und der Elektrodenmaterialien (Fe, FeCo). Aber<br />

auch die chemische Beschaffenheit der Grenzfläche ist von großer Bedeutung. So ließen<br />

schon 2001 <strong>mit</strong> Röntgenstrahlung durchgeführte oberflächenempfindliche Beugungsexperimente<br />

an der MgO/Fe Grenzfläche die mögliche Bildung einer FeO Zwischenschicht<br />

vermuten [5], die theoretischen Berechnungen zufolge zu einer Reduzierung des TMR-<br />

Effektes führt [1]. In unseren Messungen konnten wir nun eine starke Erhöhung in der<br />

Spinpolarisation der elektronischen Bandstruktur an ” unteroxidierten“ MgO-Schichte<br />

nachweisen. Für die spinaufgelösten Photoemissionsexperimente in DELTA wurden unter<br />

Ultrahochvakuumbedingungen 10 Monolagen dicke Eisenschichten epitaktisch auf<br />

einkristalline GaAs(100)-Substrate aufgedampft. Die Struktur der Eisenschicht wurde<br />

<strong>mit</strong> niederenergetischer Elektronenbeugung überprüft. Es folgte das Aufdampfen einer<br />

Monolage Magnesium, wobei durch Wahl eines geeigneten Sauerstoffpartialdruckes in<br />

der Anlage die Oxidation der Mg-Schicht eingestellt wurde. Das Verhältnis von oxidiertem<br />

zu unoxidiertem Magnesium wurde durch Photoemissionsspektroskopie am Mg 2p<br />

Niveau bestimmt. Die daran durchgeführten spinaufgelösten Photoemissionsmessungen<br />

(nähere Beschreibung [7]) zeigen einen klaren Zusammenhang zwischen dem Anteil von<br />

unoxidiertem Magnesium und der gemessenen Spinpolarisation in der elektronischen<br />

Bandstruktur. So erhöhte sich der Wert einer reinen Eisenschicht von 35 % auf 65 %<br />

bei einer Bedeckung <strong>mit</strong> einer Magnesiumschicht, die nur zu 60 % oxidiert war. Eine<br />

vollständige Oxidation der Magnesiumschicht reduzierte die Spinpolarization auf<br />

35 %. [1]W.H. Butler et al.,PRB 63(2001) 054416. [2]J. Mathon et al.,PRB 63(2001)<br />

We have determined the dispersion of acoustic and optical surface phonon modes at<br />

the 2H–NbSe2 surface by inelastic x–ray scattering under grazing incidence conditions.<br />

Already, at room temperature, an anomaly is observed close to the charge density wave<br />

Q–vector position located at about one-third along the Γ-M direction of the Brillouin<br />

zone [1]. Our results indicate that the anomaly for the surface mode occurs at a lower<br />

energy than that measured in bulk sensitive geometry in the same experiment, showing<br />

evidence of a modified behaviour in the uppermost layers. Temperature–dependent<br />

softening is observed in both surface and bulk. We demonstrate that inelastic x–ray<br />

scattering in grazing incidence conditions provides a unique tool to selectively study<br />

either surface or bulk lattice dynamics in a single experiment.<br />

Transition metal oxides reveal interesting properties due to their high electronic correlation.<br />

Besides their electronic properties magnetic phenomena are of particular interest<br />

in layer systems which are already utilised in technical applications. As a consequence<br />

of the trend in miniaturising devices questions about the influence of the specific interface<br />

and the reduced dimensionality on the properties arise. The MnO/Ag(001) system<br />

is an interesting model system due to the high lattice mismatch (9 %). By choosing<br />

the optimal preparation method either pseudomorphic or relaxed growth of ultrathin<br />

MnO on Ag(001) can be obtained. This defined growth method gives the possibility<br />

to separately study the interface strain, the effect of the reduced dimensionality and<br />

the influence of the substrate. Ultrathin, epitaxial layers of MnO were prepared at<br />

Ag(001) with thicknesses of a few monolayers. The samples were characterised in situ<br />

by means of XPS, XES and XAS measurements. By combining these techniques a detailed<br />

understanding of the local geometry and the electronic structure of the evolving<br />

film can be obtained. The Mn L2,3 absorption edges of bulk and thin film samples were<br />

measured polarisation-dependent at ANKA. Atomic multiplet-ligand field simulations<br />

of the absorption edges were conducted using a code provided by F. de Groot. The<br />

parameters of the cubic and tetragonal distorted crystal field, respectively, were varied<br />

until a good correlation between experiment and theory was achieved. In pseudomorphically<br />

grown samples a tetragonal distortion of the MnO lattice is observed which<br />

decreases with increasing film thickness. In relaxed films the distortion is reduced but<br />

does not vanish completely. The valence band spectra of the films show significant<br />

differences compared to bulk samples as a consequence of the tetragonal distortion.<br />

Additionally a prominent difference between bulk and thin film samples appears in<br />

XES measurements.<br />

Antiferromagnetisch (AF) gekoppelte Multilagen sind sowohl für Grundlagenforschung,<br />

als auch für Technologie von großer Bedeutung. Die Orientierung der Magnetisierung<br />

der einzelnen Schichte und die Domänenstruktur spielen dabei eine wichtige Rolle.<br />

In diesem Beitrag soll gezeigt werden, wie diese Informationen durch die Anwendung<br />

von Synchrotron-Mößbauer-Reflektometrie (SMR) und polarisierter Neutronenreflektometrie<br />

(PNR) zugänglich gemacht werden können. Wir bringen auch Beispiele<br />

dafür, welche ergänzende Information durch Rutherford-Rückstreuung und Konversionselektronen-Mößbauer-Polarimerie<br />

(CEMP) geliefert wird. Die Ausrichtung der<br />

Schichtmagnetisierung in AF-gekoppelten Multilagen kann aus der Intensität des SMR<br />

und/oder PNR AF-Reflexes bestimmt werden. Eine epitaktische MgO(001)/[ 57 Fe(2,6<br />

nm)/Cr(1,3 nm)]20 Multilage wurde durch Molekülstrahlepitaxie (MBE) hergestellt;<br />

ihre Struktur wurde durch simultane Auswertung der Röntgenreflektivitätskurven und<br />

der Rutherford-Rückstreuspektren bestimmt. Bei 295 K wurde ein Sättigungsfeld von<br />

0,85 T entlang der leichten und 1,05 T entlang der schweren Achse gefunden. Die<br />

Multilage wies einen Bulk-Spin-Flop (BSF) Übergang auf, wenn das zunehmende Magnetfeld<br />

entlang der leichten Achse, in der die Schichtmagnetisierungen lagen, 14 mT<br />

überschreitete. Dieser BSF-Übergang wurde auch durch CEMP-Messungen nachgewiesen.<br />

Die Größe der AF Domänen wurde der Breite der diffusen SMR oder PNR<br />

Reflektivitätskurven entnommen. In erster Näherung ist die Breite der diffusen Streukurve<br />

umgekehrt proportional zur Domänengröße: ∆qx = 1/ξ. Die primären Domänen<br />

bilden sich, wenn das sinkende Magnetfeld den Sättigungsbereich verlässt. Die native<br />

Domänengröße war in unserer Multilage ξ = 370 nm und blieb konstant, solange das<br />

Magnetfeld 200 mT nicht unterschritt. Die Domänengröße nahm spontan und unumkehrbar<br />

zu, wenn das Magnetfeld ab 200 mT weiter sank, und erreichte ξ = 800 nm<br />

in Remanenz (Domänenreifung). Der BSF-Übergang rief eine weitere, explosionsartige<br />

Zunahme der Domänengröße bis zu ca. 100 µm hervor (Domänenvergröberung). Das<br />

sekundäre Domänenbild wurde erst in einem das Sättigungsfeld weit überschreitenden<br />

Magnetfeld gelöscht. Dieser Effekt ist wahrscheinlich der Existenz kleiner, extrem stark<br />

gekoppelter Bereiche zuzuschreiben.

Organic thin films exhibit semiconducting properties which make them suitable for field<br />

effect transistors, and, thus, plastic electronics. In this contribution, we will highlight<br />

how synchrotron diffraction can be used to access structure information [1,2,3] of such<br />

films [Fig. 1 a], and how this information can be linked to device function [Fig. 1<br />

b]. In the second part, we will discuss the application of neutron and synchrotron<br />

beams to resolve the structure of solid-supported lipid membranes on various substrates<br />

[4,5]. The structural information is compared to functional properties such as selfdiffusion<br />

(membrane fluidity) or protein binding to such membranes. The diffraction<br />

experiments are complemented by fluorescent microscopy experiments on the same<br />

samples [Fig. 2].<br />

In both parts, we will emphasis the need of these experiments in terms of instrumentation<br />

and facility infrastructure. Suggestions concerning infrastructure at FRM-2 will<br />

be presented.<br />

During the last 15 years, semiconductor nanoparticles have attracted more and more<br />

attention in both, fundamental and applied research. Some applications, e.g. in bioimaging<br />

or quantum electronics, are already under way. Yet, the basic knowledge is<br />

still far from complete, in particular for nanoparticles with diameters well below 5 nm.<br />

The size range between 1 and 5 nm is also of fundamental interest since it represents<br />

the transition regime between solid state, cluster, and molecular physics.<br />

One important aspect is the determination of precise geometric parameters like size,<br />

shape, crystallinity, ” lattice“ constants, and structural defects. In principle, powder diffraction<br />

methods can provide detailed structural information. However, the diffraction<br />

peaks become very broad for particle diameters fairly below 5 nm, and the analysis<br />

of the data is crucial. Commonly used approaches for a grain size evaluation like the<br />

Rietveld refinement or the Scherrer equation are based on periodic structures, an assumption<br />

which is often not sustainable for nanoparticles with diameters below 5 nm.<br />

Other more intricate parameters like relaxation effects or stacking faults cannot be<br />

considered at all.<br />

Here we use an alternative, more direct way for the data analysis. We model the entire<br />

particle and calculate the powder diffraction pattern using the Debye formula. In this<br />

way, all important parameters like size, shape, stacking faults, strain, etc. are intrinsically<br />

included in the calculated data. Furthermore, parameter distributions, e.g., the<br />

size distribution, can now be taken into account, which are essential since they are<br />

likely to occur in wet-chemically synthesized particles.<br />

We report on powder diffraction data with high signal-to-noise quality and low background<br />

measured at beamline BW2 at HASYLAB. The measured data are fitted using<br />

an evolutionary algorithm which includes the Debye method described above. Our<br />

results show that a stacking fault probability needs to be considered in most cases.<br />

This means that the particles are not necessarily single crystalline but consist of both<br />

zincblende- and wurtzite-like stacked layers. Distributions or probabilities are implemented<br />

by averaging the diffraction patterns of several different particles with different<br />

sizes, stacking sequences, or other parameters. Since the atomic model is highly flexible,<br />

the method can easily be expanded to core-shell particles by adding an outer layer<br />

consisting of different atoms with different lattice parameters.<br />

In our contribution we present several examples demonstrating the capability of our<br />

new data analysis method. Diffraction data for ZnO and CdSe/ZnS core-shell particles<br />

will be shown.

Growth and Oxidation of Pd/α-Al2O3(0001) Nanoparticles studied with<br />

Synchrotron X-ray Diffraction<br />

Supported transition metal nanoparticles are used as model catalysts. The oxidation<br />

of such systems is of great interest as not only the pure metal, but also its oxides<br />

can be involved in a catalytic process. In addition to bulk single crystal surfaces, the<br />

oxidation properties of nanoparticles can be expected to depend on the support, the<br />

orientation and the particle size. In-situ x-ray diffraction is an appropriate method to<br />

follow structural changes of oxygen induced phase transformations and simultaneously<br />

allows to bridge the pressure gap of UHV based surface analysis techniques.<br />

Pd nanoparticles were grown on α-Al2O3(0001) by electron beam evaporation in UHV<br />

and were studied with SXRD at the MPI-MF beamline at the synchrotron ANKA (FZ<br />

Karlsruhe). It was observed that the particles mainly grow (111)-oriented and epitaxially<br />

with a typical height of 2 nm and a lateral diameter of 4 nm in coexistence with<br />

particles in (110)-orientation. Oxidation experiments were performed in a temperature<br />

range between room temperature and 350 ◦ C.<br />

Applying UHV near oxygen pressures, it could be observed a reversible decrease of<br />

intensity and a broadening of the Pd Bragg peaks. At 350 ◦ C, the formation of bulk<br />

oxide could be observed at an oxygen pressure of 5 mbar. This indicates a structural<br />

change at the Pd particle surface at low oxygen pressures which acts as a kinetic barrier<br />

for the formation of the thermodynamically stable bulk oxide.<br />

The mineralization of calcium carbonate in the presence of the protein ovalbumin<br />

was explored by time-resolved small angle neutron scattering. Information about the<br />

evolution of the mineral polymorphs as well as of the protein structure was obtained<br />

from measurements at different scattering contrasts achieved by a proper H2O/D2O<br />

composition of the aqueous solution. Because of the very different sizes of the mineral<br />

(µm) and the protein (30 ˚A) the scattering from both could be distinguished. The<br />

intensity integrated over the small Q interval of “mineral” scattering versus time showed<br />

a peak after about 3 hours related to the amorphous phase, a minimum of the 74 % D2O<br />

sample after about 4 hours due to the vaterite polymorph, whereas the lower intensity<br />

of the 82 % sample was attributed to the aragonite polymorph. The stable calcitic<br />

phase was not oberserved within the experimental time; it would give a minimum for<br />

the 74 % solution. The square root of Porods constant versus the D2O content of the<br />

solvent at given times support this interpretation. The matching conditions, i.e. √ P4<br />

shifts with increasing mineralization to higher D2O content. So one gets the following<br />

picture: The mineralization of CaCO3 followed Oswalds law by the formation of several<br />

polymorphs from the less stable amorphous polymorph to the more stable vaterite and<br />

aragonite. No calcite was observed within the experimental time of 12 hours. During<br />

the first 4 hours, when the amorphous polymorph is the dominating mineral, about 50<br />

ovalbumin monomers aggregated to a Gaussian chain, which dissolved afterwards. This<br />

obervation gives a strong evidence about the interaction of the protein and amorphous<br />

mineral phase.<br />

Silber spielt eine wichtige Rolle als Katalysator für Oxidationsreaktionen. Es wird z.B.<br />

für die Epoxidation von Ethylen und die partielle Oxidation von Methanol zu Formaldehyd<br />

verwendet. Diese Reaktionen werden bei einer Temperatur von 500 bis 900 K<br />

und atmosphärischem Sauerstoffdruck ausgeführt. Ein grundlegendes Verständnis der<br />

katalytischen Aktivität von Silber erfordert die Kenntnis der Oberflächenstruktur der<br />

aktiven Phase auf atomarer Skala. Seit 1974 ist die Bildung einer sauerstoffinduzierten<br />

p(4×4) Rekonstruktion auf Ag(111) bekannt [1], welche für die katalytische Aktivität<br />

von Silber verantwortlich gemacht wird [2,3].<br />

In unserem Beitrag präsentieren wir Ergebnisse einer in-situ Oberflächenröntgenbeugungsuntersuchung<br />

(SXRD), die die Gültigkeit verschiedener vorgeschlagener Strukturmodelle<br />

der p(4×4) Rekonstruktion in Frage stellt [2,4]. Weiterhin zeigen wir das<br />

gemessene Stabilitätsdiagramm des O/Ag(111)-Systems, welches <strong>mit</strong> theoretischen Berechnungen<br />

verglichen wird [3].<br />

Als ein Hauptresultat unserer SXRD Messungen können alle Strukturmodelle der<br />

p(4×4) Rekonstruktion, welche auf einer dreilagigen O-Ag-O Schicht des Bulkoxids<br />

Ag2O beruhen, ausgeschlossen werden. Wir präsentieren ein nanostrukturiertes Ag12O6<br />

Adatommodell der p(4×4) Rekonstruktion, welches durch verschiedene experimentelle<br />

und theoretische Methoden bestimmt wurde [5] und im Einklang <strong>mit</strong> unseren SXRD<br />

Messungen steht. Dieses Modell besteht aus 2 Ag6 Dreiecken, die sich auf fcc und<br />

hcp Plätzen befinden. Diese Dreiecke sind durch 6 Sauerstoffatome pro Einheitszelle<br />

verbunden, wobei sich jeweils 2 Sauerstoffatome in den Gräben zwischen den Ag6<br />

Dreiecken befinden.<br />

Außerdem haben wir <strong>mit</strong> Hilfe von in-situ SXRD das Stabilitätsdiagramm des<br />

O/Ag(111)-Systems untersucht. Dabei konnten wir beobachten, dass die p(4×4) Rekonstruktion<br />

unter den katalytischen Bedingungen der Epoxidation von Ethylen stabil<br />

ist. Es könnte daher sein, dass diese Überstruktur eine wichtige Rolle für die katalytische<br />

Aktivität von Silber spielt.<br />

Viele Eigenschaften kondensierter Materie können wir nur dann verstehen, wenn wir<br />

wissen, wie sich die am schwächsten gebundenen Elektronen verhalten, also jene Elektronen<br />

nahe der Fermi-Energie. Eine seit längerem etablierte Methode zur Bestimmung<br />

der impulsaufgelösten elektronischen Struktur an und unterhalb der Fermi-Energie ist<br />

die winkelauflösende Photoelektronen-Spektroskopie, die gerade in den letzten Jahren<br />

durch Fortschritte in der Spektrometerentwicklung noch stark an Leistungsfähigkeit gewonnen<br />

hat. Dies spiegelt sich in beeindruckender Weise in Schärfe, Detailreichtum und<br />

Vollständigkeit der aufgenommenen Daten wider. Anhand verschiedener Beispiele aus<br />

dem Reich der Schichtkristalle wird in diesem Vortrag die derzeitige Leistungsstärke<br />

der winkelauflösenden Photoelektronen-Spektroskopie demonstriert, vor allem wenn sie<br />

<strong>mit</strong> Synchrotronstrahlung kombiniert wird.

Nanostructuring of thin noble metal films is of utmost importance for many technological<br />

and biophysical areas, e.g. anti-counterfeiting and DNA scanning [1]. Usually<br />

a multilayer geometry is chosen consisting of noble metal layer / polymer / substrate.<br />

The optical properties of such multilayer systems depend crucially on the structure<br />

and morphology of the noble metal layer. They are determined by key parameters<br />

like deposition method or metal-polymer interaction affecting the self-assembly of the<br />

metal atoms. We advanced two-fold: Firstly, as polymer layer we chose a blend of<br />

deuterated polystyrene (dPS) and polyisoprene (PI) being already phase separated in<br />

thin film geometry. As metals, we chose Au and Cu which have different sticking coefficients<br />

on the two components of this blend. Secondly we installed a one-dimensional<br />

(1D) gradient in mass thickness of the noble metal layer during evaporation to allow<br />

for a combinatorial investigation of the nanostructure of the metal layer as a function<br />

of mass thickness.<br />

Microbeam grazing incidence small-angle x-ray scattering (µ GISAXS) is excellently<br />

suited for combinatorial investigations with high statistical significance [2,3]. The experiments<br />

were conducted at the beamline BW4 of HASYLAB using the novel µ focus<br />

option of BW4. A moderate micro-focus beam size of 32x17 µm 2 (HxV) can be installed<br />

making use of Beryllium compound refractive lenses (Be CRLs). For the experiments<br />

a step size adapted to the microbeam size was used (∆y=40 µm). Along the gradient,<br />

the Cu mass thickness clearly changes. We present the results on two gradients,<br />

namely Au and Cu on dPS/PI-blend, and explain the results in terms of replication of<br />

the polymer blend nano-structure as a function of mass thickness.<br />

Es werden erste Resultate eines neuen experimentellen Ansatzes vorgestellt, <strong>mit</strong> dem<br />

freie, massenselektierte Nanopartikel in einem Strahl unter Nutzung von Synchrotronstrahlung<br />

untersucht werden. Die Präparation der Nanopartikel erfolgt entweder aus<br />

Lösungen oder <strong>mit</strong> Hilfe von Methoden der Kolloidchemie, <strong>mit</strong> denen sich strukturierte<br />

Nanopartikel herstellen lassen. Die Partikel werden zunächst durch einen Aerosolgenerator<br />

in die Gasphase gebracht, wobei die Größenselektion <strong>mit</strong> Hilfe eines differentiellen<br />

Mobilitätsanalysators gelingt. Eine aerodynamische Linse erlaubt die Fokussierung des<br />

kontinuierlichen Teilchenstrahls im Hochvakuum auf die Synchrotronstrahlung. Die<br />

elektronische Struktur der freien Partikel wird im Bereich der Innerschalenanregung<br />

<strong>mit</strong>tels totalen Elektronenausbeuten charakterisiert. Dadurch lassen sich freie Nanopartikel<br />

variabler Größe ohne Kontakt zu einem Substrat unter Vermeidung von Strahlenschäden<br />

im Bereich der Rumpfniveauanregung charakterisieren. Erste Experimente<br />

erfolgten an größenselektierten NaCl-Nanopartikeln (Radius: 50-175 nm) im Bereich<br />

der Cl 2p- und der Na 1s-Anregung. Der Bereich der O 1s-Absorption zeigt, dass die<br />

Partikel kaum Wasser enthalten. Nanoskopische Salzpartikel, die Kristallwasser enthalten<br />

(Na2SO4·10 H2O), liefern dagegen eine intensive O 1s-Absorption. Diese ist zur<br />

Untersuchung der Bindungsverhältnisse des im Kristallgitter gebundenen Wassers von<br />

Interesse.<br />

Der Einfluss von äußeren Beschichtungen auf die elektronische Struktur von freien<br />

Nanopartikeln wird an Core-Shell-Partikeln studiert. ZnS-Nanopartikel (r=60 nm), die<br />

<strong>mit</strong> einer 5 nm dicken SiO2-Schale umgeben sind, wurden untersucht. Es werden Unterschiede<br />

in der elektronischen Struktur zwischen unbeschichteten und beschichteten<br />

ZnS-Partikeln diskutiert.<br />

Experimente zur winkelaufgelösten, elastischen Lichtstreuung lassen sich am Nanopartikelstrahl<br />

bis in den weichen Röntgenbereich durchführen. Daraus können Strukturinformationen<br />

zur nanoskopischen Materie in Verbindung <strong>mit</strong> Simulationsrechnungen<br />

gewonnen werden. Ebenso lässt sich <strong>mit</strong> dem Ansatz die spektrale Abhängigkeit der<br />

optischen Eigenschaften nanoskopischer Materie im Bereich der Rumpfniveauauregung<br />

bestimmen.

We have performed static speckle experiments using white synchrotron radiation at<br />

EDR beamline at BESSY II. Static speckle pattern gives access to spatially resolved<br />

height function of the illuminated area at the atomic length scale [1]. It has been shown<br />

that for coherent scattering experiments in reflection geometry the knowledge of the<br />

illumination function incident on the sample is important for the reconstruction of the<br />

surface morphology from speckle data[1]. The coherent reflectivity has been recorded<br />

from the surface of technologically smooth GaAs wafer (Fig.1). Besides periodic oscillations<br />

which are caused by the scattering from incident pinhole other features appear<br />

in the measurement of the real surface of the sample. The illumination function calculated<br />

by means of Lommel formalism matches well with the measured function for<br />

the pin-hole diameter of 11.4 µm and will be used for further surface reconstruction<br />

from speckle maps. For further examination speckle map of reflection from a laterally<br />

periodic structure like GaAs grating is studied. Here the sample is illuminated<br />

with coherent as well as incoherent radiation by using pinholes of different diameters.<br />

Incoherent illumination confirms the existence of grating peaks. Under coherent illumination<br />

the grating peaks split into speckles which correspond to fluctuations on<br />

the sample surface. The surface morphology of the grating is reconstructed from this<br />

coherent scattering so as to determine local height fluctuations.<br />

Track-etching has become an established method to create well-defined pores in polymer<br />

membranes with diameters down to a few nanometers. The irradiation of insulating<br />

materials with swift heavy ions of MeV to GeV energy creates damaged zones along<br />

the trajectories of the ions which can be attacked preferentially by a suitable etchant<br />

and are thus converted into pores. The number of pores in a membrane is given by<br />

the applied fluence, i.e. number of ions per surface area (typically between one single<br />

ion and 10 9 ions/cm 2 ), while their size and shape is controlled via the time and conditions<br />

of etching. Cylindrical pores with diameters down to a few tens of nanometers<br />

or alternatively conical pores with a few nanometers opening on the small side can be<br />

produced.<br />

Structural analysis of cylindrical track-etched nanopores in polycarbonate has been<br />

performed by small angle x-ray scattering and revealed an excellent unifor<strong>mit</strong>y in pore<br />

size, if the samples have been exposed to UV light prior to the etching.<br />

Single pore membranes with a conical shape show ionic transport properties similar<br />

to biological channels (selectivity, rectification, fluctuations [1][2]). To better understand<br />

the underlying processes occurring in the system, model calculations based on<br />

the Nernst-Planck and Poisson equations have been performed, describing the transport<br />

phenomena (I-V curves at different concentrations) of conical pores in polyethyleneterephthalate<br />

[3].<br />

These synthetic nanopores have the advantage of high stability, resistance against<br />

environmental conditions and easy-handling, which makes them a favourable system<br />

for applications in biosensing [4] and single-molecule (e.g. DNA) detection [5].<br />

Characterization of InGaN/GaN nano-islands by grazing incidence x-ray<br />

diffraction<br />

InGaN quantum dots (QDs) embedded in GaN offer a great potential for applications<br />

in light e<strong>mit</strong>ting devices. Depending on the In concentration, a wide spectral range<br />

can be covered. In comparison to InGaN/GaN quantum-well based structures, InGaN<br />

quantum dots embedded in GaN are especially advantageous, e. g. because a smaller<br />

laser threshold is expected. In this context, information about the size, shape, chemical<br />

composition, and the strain state of such islands is necessary. Grazing incidence x-ray<br />

diffraction (GIXRD) is ideally suited for this purpose, as has already been shown for<br />

different material systems such as GaN/AlN [1], CdZnSe/ZnSe [2], or InGaAs/GaAs<br />

[3]. Here, we present the first grazing incidence x-ray characterization of InGaN/GaN<br />

nano-islands.<br />

GIXRD experiments were performed ex-situ in the so-called z-axis setup [4] at the BW1<br />

undulator beamline at HASYLAB (Hamburg, Germany), using a focussed monochromatic<br />

beam at 10 keV photon energy. Reciprocal space maps were recorded in the<br />

vicinity of different reflections. InGaN/GaN(0001) samples were grown on sapphire<br />

(0001) substrates by metal-organic vapor pressure epitaxy (MOVPE) at our institute<br />

in Bremen. Samples with different InGaN deposition temperatures were investigated.<br />

For InGaN growth at T = 650 ◦ C, we find that the InxGa1−xN islands are virtually<br />

completely relaxed, and based on Vegard’s law, an In concentration of x ≈ 0.60 follows<br />

for these islands. For lower growth temperature (T = 600 ◦ C), broad reflections<br />

indicate the presence of small islands which are found to be coherently strained.<br />

In addition, samples grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) on MOVPE templates<br />

were investigated. For an InGaN growth temperature of T = 450 ◦ C, fully relaxed<br />

islands are observed. The In concentration of these islands is as high as x ≈ 0.86. This<br />

value is found to be significantly reduced after MBE overgrowth with GaN cap layers.<br />

In comparison to as-grown QD layers, additional reflections occur for the overgrown<br />

samples. Especially for stacked QD layers, these reflections become intense. This is<br />

explained by the progressive formation of stacking faults and of regions with cubic<br />

crystal structure during MBE overgrowth.<br />

Radiation damage in alkali halides induced by swift heavy ions is investigated by optical<br />

spectroscopy, optical bleaching, thermo-stimulated luminescence (TSL), and scanning<br />

force microscopy (SFM). Single crystals of LiF and NaCl were irradiated at the UNI-<br />

LAC linear accelerator of GSI with different heavy ions (from carbon to uranium) in<br />

the energy range between 50 and 2600 MeV. The irradiations were performed from 8<br />

K up to room temperature (RT) using a cryostat that allows additionally in situ absorption<br />

and TSL measurements. The evolution of various color centers was studied<br />

as a function of ion fluence and irradiation temperature [1, 2].<br />

The efficiency of F-center creation strongly depends on the energy loss of the ions and<br />

is related to electron-hole recombination processes [1, 2]. In LiF and NaCl crystals<br />

irradiated at 8 K primary hole centers were observed which are thermally annealed<br />

between 10 and 140 K. In LiF, crystals the ion induced damage changes the electronic<br />

structure of anion excitons [3].<br />

On the surface of irradiated ionic crystals each ion produces a nanometric hillock [4].<br />

The size (height and diameter) of the hillocks depends on the energy loss of the ion<br />

but is independent of the irradiation temperature (8 K, RT) which is in contrast to the<br />

creation of color centers.<br />

The efficiency of color center creation is related to local heating and thermally stimulated<br />

separation of primary color centers in ion tracks. Thermal spike calculations are<br />

performed to describe the heat propagation in the track [2].<br />

High-resolution PES and NEXAFS investigation of organic molecules and<br />

interfaces<br />

Metal-organic contacts are of fundamental interest and of crucial importance for all organic<br />

electronic applications. The bonding between the organic molecules of the active<br />

layer and the metal contact surface does not only have a key influence on the charge<br />

carrier transport through the interface but also on the morphology and structure of<br />

the organic film. By using high-resolution PES and NEXAFS spectroscopy we are able<br />

to characterize this interface in details that are not accessible by other techniques. As<br />

example, we present investigations on model molecules (PTCDA, NTCDA) in different<br />

adsoption states on Ag(111) and Au(111) surfaces. We find that the molecules interact<br />

much stronger with the Ag(111) surface, where PTCDA and NTCDA are chemisorbed<br />

which can clearly be derived by the high quality of the spectroscopic data. Moreover,<br />

the rich finestructures of the monolayer PES spectra exhibit substantial differences for<br />

the same molecule in different adsorption states. Changes in the relative intensity of<br />

satellite features can be interpreted in terms of different charge transfer screening probabilities<br />

due to differences in the interface coupling [1]. The bonding is assigned to the<br />

interaction of the molecular aromatic pi-system with Ag d-states and significant charge<br />

transfer from Ag into the NTCDA/PTCDA LUMO can be observed. In contrast, the<br />

investigated molecules show mainly physisorptive bonding to the Au(111) surface. In<br />

addition, the vibronic fine structure in high-resolution NEXAFS data, analysed in<br />

detail for NTCDA, reveals interesting information on the electron-vibron coupling in<br />

complex organic compounds [2].<br />

Photoelectron diffraction is a surface sensitive technique which combines the chemical<br />

sensitivity of XPS with the possibility to conduct structure determinations. In this<br />

work angle-scanned photoelectron diffraction was applied to investigate the interface<br />

between ultrathin SiO2 films and 4H-SiC(0001). SiC is a semiconductor material with<br />

a large bandgap, which is, due to it’s properties, an attractive material for the application<br />

in semiconductor devices designed for operation at high temperatures, with<br />

high currents and high frequencies. The thermal oxidation of SiC surfaces leads to<br />

amorphous SiO2 films at the surface. The interface of these films to the SiC substrate<br />

is assumed to be an important source of defect states, which represent an obstacle for<br />

the application of SiC in MOS devices.<br />

At the U41-PGM beamline at BESSY 2 (Berlin), synchrotron radiation with high flux<br />

and sufficient spectral resolution was available. Thus it was possible to separate three<br />

components in the Si 2p XPS spectra corresponding to Si e<strong>mit</strong>ters in the SiC bulk, the<br />

SiO2, and at the interface. Further, the O 1s signal from the silicon oxide layer and the<br />

C 1s signal from the SiC substrate were measured. Therefore experimental diffraction<br />

patterns are available which contain structural information about depths of the sample.<br />

For each of them a comparison with simulation calculations is presented, which<br />

provides information about the local atomic structure around the respective e<strong>mit</strong>ter.<br />

A model was found, in which the interface structure is very similar to ordered silicate<br />

layers on SiC as described by Bernhardt and coworkers [1]. Structural differences to<br />

ordered silicate layers were primarily found within the near-interface region of the oxide<br />

film. The size of locally ordered regions near the interface in the oxide film could be<br />

determined.<br />

Graphene is a zerogap semiconductor with a linear dispersion of the π-bands at the<br />

zone boundary. There electrons and holes can be considered massless and transport<br />

should be governed by Diracs equation. Thus the mobility of 2D electron gases reach<br />

high values (15,000cm 2 /Vs at 300K, 60,000 cm 2 /Vs at 4K) [1-2]. Similar behaviour<br />

with smaller mobilities was observed for graphite/SiC(0001) [3]. It was suggested that<br />

such a system could open up a route towards graphene based electronics. This requires<br />

to understand the formation of thin graphite layers in detail.<br />

Graphite on SiC(0001) is grown by sublimation of Si at T > 1150 ◦ C. The first carbon<br />

rich structure in the growth sequence is a (6 √ 3×6 √ 3) structure. Chen [4] characterized<br />

the (6 √ 3 × 6 √ 3) structure by STM and proposed a carbon nanomesh model which is<br />

incompatible with the weak substrate-overlayer interaction proposed by Forbeaux [5]<br />

based on undistorted π ∗ -bands.<br />

We have studied the occupied electronic states of the (6 √ 3 × 6 √ 3) structure and<br />

thin graphite layers by ARPES. Figure 1 compares the dispersion of the observed surface<br />

states of the (6 √ 3 × 6 √ 3) structure with band structure calculations for graphite<br />

[6]. The observed σ-bands match the calculation quite well but the π-bands are not<br />

developed. Further results obtained at different coverages with graphite will be presented.<br />

The development of the electronic structure of ultra-thin graphite layers with<br />

increasing coverage is outlined.<br />

Magnesium and silicon are most commonly used as p-dopant and n-dopant material,<br />

respectively, in GaN based devices such as laser diodes. The incorporation of<br />

these dopants is known to lead to a variety of defects [1] which significantly decrease<br />

the performance of the devices. Hence, detailed knowledge about the interplay between<br />

dopant concentration and defect formation is required. The samples were grown<br />

by metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy on sapphire (0001) substrates. In order to determine<br />

the dopant incorporation sites, we performed x-ray standing wave measurements<br />

(XSW) in (0002) backscattering geometry at a photon energy of E=2390 eV at the<br />

beamlines BW 1 (HASYLAB/DESY) and ID 32 (ESRF). As secondary signals, Ga<br />

2p photoelectrons, Mg KLL Auger electrons, and Si K fluorescence were recorded. In<br />

backscattering geometry, the intrinsic width of the rocking curve may exceed its defect<br />

induced broadening. Hence, the data can be evaluated directly applying the dynamical<br />

theory of diffraction. However, in 3 µm thick Mg doped GaN films, the defect induced<br />

broadening cannot be sufficiently compensated by choosing a backscattering setup.<br />

This could be compensated by an optimizing the sample design: A 3 µm thick high<br />

quality undoped GaN film was used to establish a standing wave field for the investigation<br />

of a 300-400 nm thin doped film deposited on top. By this approach, the width of<br />

the rocking curve can be significantly reduced. For XSW investigations using photoelectrons<br />

as secondary signal, contributions of non-dipole effects to the photoelectron<br />

yield need to be taken into account. In backscattering geometry, these effects become<br />

especially pronounced. For electrons e<strong>mit</strong>ted from an s state, the influence of nondipole<br />

contributions on the XSW-signal can be accounted for by applying calculated<br />

correction paramters [2]. However, such parameters are not yet available for other initial<br />

states, as required for the Ga 2p electrons used here. Therefore, we used a method<br />

that allows to determine non-dipole parameters with high precision, by comparing the<br />

XSW signal of Ga 2p photoelectrons and Ga LMM-Auger electrons from high quality<br />

undoped GaN films. In the setup we used, the difference of the kinetic energies of<br />

these two types of electrons is very small, hence both signals probe the same crystal<br />

volume. The parameters obtained from these experiments were then used for the data<br />

evaluation of XSW measurements of doped films with decreased crystal quality. The<br />

results confirm a prevalent incorporated of Mg on substitutional sites. With increasing<br />

dopant concentration, however, additional sites are occupated by Mg, which can<br />

be related to inversion domains. Different results have been obtained for Si doping,<br />

pointing to a general degradation of the crystal structure without a significant increase<br />

of non-substitutional Si atoms with increasing dopant concentration.<br />

PbTiO3 is a classical ferroelectric perovskite. In bulk form, it distorts tetragonally<br />

with ct > at below TC = 490 ◦ C and the ferroelectric polarization lies along the [001]<br />

direction. In thin film form, the polarization is preferred along the surface normal to<br />

facilitate the switching geometry, so substrates, such are SrTiO3, are commonly chosen<br />

with lattice parameters close to at. Grazing Incidence Diffraction (GID) performed<br />

at the DORIS W1 beamline (HASYLAB) on thin layers of ferroelectric PbTiO3 has<br />

revealed that, on a well-chosen substrate with tensile misfit values, and for sufficiently<br />

thin (fully-strained) films, the polarization can tilt from the surface normal[1] without<br />

reaching the in-plane orientation. This is not only of fundamental interest since it has<br />

been predicted that this lowering of symmetry can improve functional properties like<br />

the piezoelectric and dielectric responses of the films[2].<br />

The underlying substrate and the film thickness are the main parameters to control<br />

the strain state and orientation of an epitaxial thin film [3-5]. These effects can be<br />

used to tune and improve the physical properties of the film. Due to the presence of a<br />

high-symmetry phase at the growth temperatures, films of ferroelectric perovskites can<br />

release strain in the ferroelectric phase by forming periodic 90 ◦ domain patterns (with<br />

alternating in-plane and out-of-plane polarizations)[5]. Although this mechanism is<br />

known, a detailed characterization is still missing, in particular for weak tensile strain.<br />

Here we investigate the strain tunability and strain relaxation of thin films of ferroelectric<br />

PbTiO3 on different substrates and with different thickness. The films have been<br />

prepared using RHEED-assisted PLD (Reflection High-Energy Electron Diffraction assisted<br />

Pulsed Laser Deposition). The structural properties of the PbTiO3 films have<br />

been studied by x-ray diffraction. Reciprocal space maps have been measured around<br />

several main reflections, both in reflection and GID geometry at a lab diffractometer<br />

and at the DORIS W1 beamline at HASYLAB. Dielectric and Piezoelectric Force Microscopy<br />

(PFM) measurements have also been performed. Preliminary results indicate<br />

that tensile strain improves the piezoelectric response, as expected for a tilted polar<br />

phase[2,4].<br />

Presently, there are many higk-k candidates discussed as a substitute for SiO2 as the<br />

gate dielectric in the silicon based CMOS (Complementary-MetalOxide-Semiconductors)<br />

technology. One of the most promising candidates is HfO2 [1]. The thermal stability of<br />

the new gate dielectric is one of the most difficult issues to solve. Recent publications<br />

[2] report the formation of hafnium silicide at the HfO2 interface at high temperature<br />

annealing. Due to this fact it is interessting to get more information about the the formation<br />

of HfSi on Si and to understand the structure and the interface of this system.<br />

In this work ultrathin films of HfSi on Si(100) were prepared and studied by X-ray<br />

photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray photoelectron diffraction (XPD). The<br />

measurements were performed at the beamlines 5 and 11 at the synchrotron facility<br />

DELTA (Dortmund). The experimental results are compared to calculated patterns by<br />

an R-factor analysis. We present a possible model of the structure of HfSi on Si(100).<br />

Ellipsometry is a non-destructive and very sensitive surface and thin film measurement technique<br />

which can detect the changes in the optical response produced by an overlayer on a<br />

smooth surface. Due to the long wavelengths of the spectral range accessible with most commercial<br />

ellipsometers it can, however, be difficult to separate the refractive index of the film<br />

and the film thickness. Consequently only the product of these parameters can be uniquely<br />

determined. The lower wavelength of the UV light should be even more sensitive for ultra-thin<br />

films. Still to our knowledge there is no investigation yet of organic monolayers using UV<br />

ellipsometry.<br />

Therefore the aim of this work is to show that sub-monolayer sensitivity can be achieved using<br />

in situ ellipsometry to monitor the evolution of the dielectric response of tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline)-aluminum(III)<br />

(Alq3) layers from ultra-low coverages to bulk-like layers. Alq3 was<br />

deposited under ultra-high vacuum conditions onto hydrogen passivated silicon and zinc oxide<br />

substrates. The characteristic Vacuum-Ultra-Violet (VUV) absorption lines of Alq3 were detected<br />

using synchrotron radiation as light source.<br />

In order to separate overlayer and substrate contributions to the effective dielectric function we<br />

use two different ways: analysis in terms of a conventional three phase model and a parameterfree<br />

approximation valid for ultra-thin films proposed by Aspnes [1].<br />

In such ultra-thin films the absorption lines corresponding to molecular transitions of the Alq3<br />

are found to be spectrally blue-shifted with respect to bulk-like layers. While it still remains to<br />

fully understand why the observed shift depends on the substrate, we proved for the first time<br />

that the dielectric response can be reliably obtained in the VUV range for strong absorbing<br />

materials even for sub-monolayer coverage.<br />

A new class of composite materials is formed from the addition of magnetic particles<br />

in supported polymer nano-structures. The great potential of these composites are the<br />

substantial modification of the magnetic properties of polymers. The polymer nanostructures<br />

act as a template and enable a completely new arrangement of magnetic<br />

particles which is inaccessible with common magnetic materials [1]. The controlled<br />

incorporation of the magnetic particles (iron oxide) covered by polystyrene hairs yields<br />

to magnetic properties of the polymer composite. The polymer films containing particles<br />

are prepared by the spin-coating technique on the top of solid support. We<br />

use the diblock copolymer, polystyrene-block-polyisoprene, denoted by P(S-b-I), with<br />

a symmetric degree of polymerization of both monomer types. The nano-structures<br />

are created by additional preparation resulting in dewetting and micro-phase separation<br />

of P(S-b-I). Dewetting creates a drop-like structure of the polymer matrix. The<br />

self assembly process due to micro-phase separation inside such a superstructure produces<br />

an ordered nano-structure. Magnetic particles arrange themselves inside this<br />

nano-structured polymer matrix. Organization in a particular block is due to the selective<br />

affinity to one block in the diblock copolymer P(S-b-I). Such superstructure<br />

hosted nanoparticles are investigated with grazing incident small angle x-ray scattering<br />

(GISAXS) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). GISAXS experiments are carried<br />

out with synchrotron radiation at the beam line BW4 at HASYLAB, DESY, Hamburg.<br />

GISAXS gives us information (e.g., average statistics of length, height, and periodicity)<br />

of structures of nano- to micro- scale present inside the polymer films and on the<br />

surface [2]. Real space analysis by AFM provides us image of the structured surface in<br />

real space. Some of results of our investigation are presented.<br />

Real time evolution of structural and morphological features in quenched<br />

polymers during heating<br />

A simple experimental approach to gain information on structuring of polymeric materials<br />

in very fast cooling processes, mimicking solidification under processing conditions,<br />

has been recently developed in our laboratory. It consist in sandwiching a thin wire<br />

thermocouple type K (wire diameter 50 microns) between two thin films (ca. 200<br />

micron thick) of the polymer and in recording its signal at fairly high sampling rate<br />

(5-10 readings/s) while the sample cools due to its immersion in a thermostatic liquid<br />

bath at a given constant temperature. The analysis of the cooling curve, T(t), is<br />

then carried out to obtain semi-quantitative information on the latent heat released<br />

by the crystallization of the sample. A set of experiments performed with i-PP, PVDF<br />

and HDPE at several quench temperatures indicate that crystallization takes place<br />

at increasingly higher undercooling and to a progressively lower extent on increasing<br />

cooling rate and that the sensitivity of crystallization to the imposed quench conditions<br />

decreases on increasing the intrinsic crystallization rate of the polymer, i.e. in<br />

the order i-PP>PVDF>HDPE. In general, samples obtained by quenching at rates of<br />

the order of several hundreds ◦ C/s contain metastable highly defective crystals which<br />

may undergo important structural and morphological reorganization before melting<br />

during a typical DSC scan aimed at establishing the correlation between crystallization<br />

conditions and characteristics of the semicrystalline state. In this context, the<br />

unique potential of simultaneous acquisition of SAXS/WAXD during heating provided<br />

by synchrotron facilities enables one to obtain an unambiguous picture of the evolution<br />

of crystals with different initial features. This will be demonstrated, for example,<br />

by comparing the reorganization and melting behaviour of i-PP samples quenched to<br />

various temperatures, from 20 to 90 ◦ C, and initially exhibiting different structures,<br />

from pure smectic to a mixture of smectic and α-monoclinic. The following observations<br />

can be made: - the weakly exothermal smectic-monoclinic transition takes place<br />

in the solid state and, upon heating, it begins at temperatures which are slightly lower<br />

for samples solidified at very high cooling rates. - the structural and morphological<br />

features of differently quenched samples progressively change during heating and, at<br />

temperatures around 120 ◦ C, the systems eventually attain an identical type and extent<br />

of ordering despite the appreciable differences in their initial state. This implies<br />

that, consistent with the recorded DSC signals, their behaviour in the melting range<br />

is independent from the initial morphology and structure and, therefore, it cannot be<br />

used to differentiate the state of order in products obtained under typical processing<br />

conditions.

Multiferroics are materials that exhibit ferroelectricity and magnetism simultaneously.<br />

If these two properties are coupled, multiferroics offer the interesting possibility of<br />

manipulating electric properties by applying a magnetic field and vice versa, with<br />

potentially high impact in spintronics, memory, sensor, and other applications. Unfortunately,<br />

they are very rare and the existing ones only show large magnetoelectric<br />

(ME) coupling at low temperature. Although the search and design of new multiferroics<br />

are attracting much attention since the last couple of years, the mechanisms<br />

driving the coupling between ferroelectricity and magnetism are very diverse and still<br />

not well understood [1]. Among the multiferroics, the perovskite oxides are of great interest<br />

because their relatively simple structure allows easier access to the fundamental<br />

understanding of their ME coupling.<br />

Epitaxial growth of multiferroic films allows the tuning of the film properties, by<br />

means of strain imposed by the substrate. So strain provides an additional parameter<br />

to increase the temperature and magnitude of the ME coupling. Perovskites are well<br />

suited for that due to the availability of several perovskite substrates, such as SrTiO3.<br />

Using Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD), multiferroic BiFeO3 and TbMnO3 films with<br />

thicknesses of tens of nanometers have been epitaxially grown on SrTiO3 substrates<br />

[2],[3]. More recently, ultrathin films of BiFeO3 have also been reported down to 5nm[4],<br />

but the characterization of such thin layers by means of standard x-ray diffraction is<br />

not easy because of the li<strong>mit</strong>ed diffracted intensity. As far as we know, there are no<br />

reports of TbMnO3 films with thicknesses below 100 nm. Growth and characterization<br />

of ultrathin film is also important in the context of multilayer growth.<br />

We report the successful growth of epitaxial ultrathin (5 nm) films of BiFeO3 and<br />

TbMnO3 on SrTiO3 single crystals via RHEED-assisted PLD. The structural characterization<br />

of these films has been done using synchrotron radiation at the DORIS W1<br />

beamline at HASYLAB in grazing-incidence and reflection geometry. By characterizing<br />

these films as a function of temperature and thickness we expect to shed light into<br />

the effect of strain and the strain relaxation on the multiferroic properties of the layers.<br />

The present study discusses the mutual relationship between the crystalline structure<br />

and the mechanical behavior in polyamide 6 (PA6) isotropic films and oriented cables<br />

prepared by compression molding or by consecutive extrusion and cold drawing.<br />

These samples were afterwards isothermally annealed in the 120-200 o C range and than<br />

subjected to tensile tests at room temperature. 2D synchrotron WAXS and SAXS<br />

patterns were obtained before and after mechanical failure. The structural data obtained<br />

from these patterns (e.g., degree of crystallinity, d-spacing and long spacing<br />

values, orientation, content of α- and γ-PA6 polymorphs) were discussed in relation<br />

with the mechanical properties (e.g., Young modulus, yield stress and break strain) of<br />

the corresponding isotropic and oriented samples.<br />

It was demonstrated that annealing of isotropic PA6 in the 120-200 o C range results in<br />

an increase in both Young modulus (from 730 to 1030 MPa) and of the yield stress values<br />

- from 40 to 50 MPa. These two findings were related to the proportional reduction<br />

of the d-spacing of the (002) plane for α-PA6 and of the (200) plane for the γ-PA6. The<br />

decrease of break strain values from 81 to 37 % as a function of annealing temperature<br />

was elucidated by analysing the corresponding 2D SAXS and WAXS patterns after<br />

mechanical failure. Stretching of samples annealed at 120 o C resulted in extension of<br />

the amorphous domains whereas the crystalline ones did not orient. Samples annealed<br />

at 160 and 200 o C showed significant anisotropy of the crystalline domains along the<br />

draw direction meaning that the amorphous phase did not absorb but transferred the<br />

stress to the crystalline phase.<br />

With the oriented PA6 samples, increasing the annealing temperature resulted in an<br />

increase of Young modulus from 990 to 3800 MPa, and of the yield stress in the<br />

135-200 MPa range, the strain decreasing from 150 to

The effects of the electronic energy loss of fast ions in materials have gained increasing<br />

importance for modern science and technology over the past years. The research field<br />

includes, among others, permanent materials modification of solids by heavy ions. New,<br />

unexpected findings like the self organisation of the irradiated material have been<br />

observed. Besides the fundamental research concerning the interaction of ions with<br />

matter, ion beams are exploited in applied research, e.g. the study of radiation hardness<br />

of electronic compounds for aerospace. The high quality of ion beams from a cyclotron<br />

allows challenging novel applications and the elaboration of existing techniques: Hightech<br />

miniature filter production by heavy ion irradiation as well as eye tumour therapy<br />

profit from the high beamy stability, whereas materials analysis benefits from the low<br />

beam e<strong>mit</strong>tance. Different applications, ranging from high current irradiations to<br />

single ion track applications, will be presented. Examples from materials analysis<br />

using heavy ions for ERDA (Elastic Recoil Detection Analysis) of complex layered<br />

structures like solar cells as well as the non-destructive analysis of art objects, e.g.<br />

Egyptian coffin masks, by high energy PIXE (Proton Induced X-ray Emission) will be<br />

shown. The specific requirements for the accelerators will be discussed.

Zone-plate base scanning-transmission microspectroscopy offers manyfold different application<br />

with lateral resolutions well below 50 nm. The operation of the microscope in<br />

either He atmosphere or in vacuum allows the investigation of thin solid films and liquid<br />

films in wet cells. The BMBF funded PolLux project, which is presently under commissioning<br />

at the Swiss Light Source (Paul Scherrer Institut, Villigen) will be an easy to use<br />

microspectroscopy facility which offers a wide variety of experimental possibilities in<br />

the photon energy range from 260 to 1100 eV. Within this project, we have performed<br />

laterally resolved NEXAFS investigations of ultrathin organic films prepared either by<br />

vacuum sublimation or by dip- or spin-coating from solution. Particular emphasis was<br />

lying on structure-property relationships in thus prepared samples. The materials under<br />

investigation were ranging from supramolecular ligand stabilised assemblies with<br />

paramagnetic ions (which may also regarded as molecular magnets containing Fe and<br />

Mn ions), heteroaromates, metal-organic charge-transfer complexes, binary liquid films<br />

(see Fig. 1)and films from triblock copolymers. In all cases the NEXAFS contrast at<br />

the respective absorption edges was used for contrast improvement of the images or - in<br />

the case of multicomponent samples - to identify the different chemical species within<br />

the film. Nano- and microcrystalline growth is observed in many samples thus allowing<br />

to utilize the NEXAFS linear dichoism to monitor the molecular orientations. Due to<br />

the high photon flux density in the focussed beam radiation damage has been checked<br />

carefully. In contrast to other spectromicroscopies (e.g. XPEEM) illumination times in<br />

the millisecond range reduces damage significantly as demonstrated for the extremely<br />

sensity molecular magnets. This project is funded by the BMBF under contract 05<br />

KS4WE1/6.<br />

SANS experiments on confined polymers in microemulsions<br />

It has been established that amphiphilic diblock copolymers increase the efficiency of<br />

surfactants in microemulsions (polymer boosting effect). These studies always considered<br />

large oil and water domains of size d compared to the typical polymer size<br />

Rg. Thus the confinement parameter Rg/d was small in these first studies. The ongoing<br />

studies of this paper consider medium and higher confinement, where small angle<br />

neutron scattering measurements reveal a new behaviour, which can be compared to<br />

computer simulations by T. Auth [1].<br />

Microemulsions consist of immiscible oil and water, and a third component, the surfactant.<br />

The surfactant mediates between oil and water; thus a macroscopically homogenous<br />

phase is formed. Microscopically, domains of oil and water are formed with a<br />

surfactant film in between. The efficiency of a surfactant is measured by the minimum<br />

amount of surfactant needed to form a one-phase microemulsion. In previous studies<br />

[2] amphiphilic diblock copolymers proved to enhance the efficiency of surfactants dramatically<br />

(polymer boosting effect). By SANS experiments using contrast variation it<br />

was shown that the polymer decorated the film and the membrane bending rigidity is<br />

increased. Thus larger domain structures are formed with a better surface to volume<br />

ratio.<br />

The current studies focus on microemulsions with smaller domain sized d compared<br />

to the typical polymer size Rg. The variation of the ratio could be achieved by different<br />

polymers and the use of different oils, since the efficiency of the surfactant is<br />

oil dependent. At low confinement the result of the initial studies [2] is confirmed; at<br />

intermediate confinement a slightly higher sensitivity of the polymer effect is obtained,<br />

while at high confinement a reversed behaviour is observed. The theory of Auth [1]<br />

predicts a much more enhanced sensitivity at medium confinement and a reversed behaviour<br />

at larger confinement. These results are interesting for applications (enhanced<br />

polymer boosting) and interpretations of biological membranes (reversed behaviour).<br />

In this work we investigated the interaction of a carbohydrate-based bolaamphiphile<br />

with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). SDS-mixtures in particular gained much interest<br />

in mixed surfactant systems, therefore much data is available that can be compared<br />

with results from our studies. It is known that SDS shows synergism in mixtures with<br />

non ionic surfactants. Experiments were carried out using deuterated and protonated<br />

SDS to obtain information about mixing with the bolaamphiphile and it ′ s location in<br />

mixed micelles. The main feature, which has to be compared for both curves, is the<br />

position of the maximum. The position of the maximum is connected with the average<br />

distance between aggregates qmax ∼ 1/d 1/3 which is determined by the concentration<br />

of aggregates. The constant value of qmax supports the idea that the concentration of<br />

aggregates, there we observe SDS and MDM (solution with protonated SDS) and there<br />

we can observe only MDM (solution with deuterated SDS), is the same. It means that<br />

we observe the same aggregates i.e., mixed micelles of SDS and MDM. It is well-known<br />

for non-ionic/ionic mixtures. Analysis of solutions with h-SDS and d-SDS gives the<br />

same parameters of aggregates. It points that the chosen model of one population of<br />

mixed micelles (without demixing within the micelle) is correct for the length scale l ><br />

π/q > 10 ˚A. Aggregates are of a non-spherical (oblate) shape which is in accordance<br />

with pure SDS micelles . The total aggregation number is 30 % less than for pure SDS<br />

micelles but it should be taken into account that MDM molecules are significant larger<br />

than SDS ones. The observed slightly oblate shape shape of aggregates is in agreement<br />

with a preferably planar geometry of bola amphiphiles.<br />

The investigated ordered colloidal assemblies are three-dimensional periodic structures<br />

formed from small polystyrene spheres suspended in solution. These assemblies attract<br />

considerable attention when used as optical filters, switches and materials with photonic<br />

band gaps.<br />

Unluckily, a broad application of ordered colloidal assemblies is greatly restricted<br />

by numerous difficulties in the formation of large area ordered crystalline assemblies<br />

with uniform crystal orientation. We here present an approach using a holographically<br />

manufactured template made from a photopolymer which is pre-structured. The<br />

aim of these templates is to allow the growing of ordered colloidal assemblies by slow<br />

sedimentation to direct the crystallization of colloids towards bulky crystals and to<br />

allow a tailoring of the final lattice structure, orientation and size of the final colloidal<br />

assemblies. The understanding of the sedimentation process is hereby of great importance.<br />

Although there are optical [2,3] and confocal [4] microscopy well established as<br />

is-situ investigation techniques, both methods are li<strong>mit</strong>ed. On the one hand optical<br />

microscopy is suitable investigating large particles in 2 dimensions while the confocal<br />

microscopy requires fluorescence labeled specimen for the observation. The methods<br />

are, moreover, more or less li<strong>mit</strong>ed to describe surface phenomena only.<br />

To fully monitor the crystallization process in 3 dimensions, X-ray reflectometry and<br />

in-situ small angle X-ray scattering under grazing incidence as well as transmission geometry<br />

were used to describe the phenomena taking place on the formation of colloidal<br />

layering. These techniques are rarely used to investigated the formation of ordered<br />

colloidal assemblies so far [5].<br />

Mizellare Lösungen zeichnen sich durch eine Vielzahl von Anwendungen aus, die insbesondere<br />

durch die Aggregationseigenschaften von Tensidmolekülen hervorgerufen werden.<br />

Spezifische Wechselwirkungen zwischen einzelnen Molekülen und zwischen den<br />

Mizellen führen zu komplexen Strukturen, die <strong>mit</strong> mikroskopischen Streumethoden, wie<br />

Neutronen-Kleinwinkelstreuung und Raman-Streuung, charakterisiert werden können.<br />

Am Beispiel von Alkyl-Trimethylammoniumbromid-Lösungen wurden Struktur und<br />

Dynamik in weiten Bereichen von Temperatur, Druck, Konzentration sowie unter dem<br />

Einfluss von Salz-Additiven untersucht, wobei insbesondere das Kristallisationsverhalten<br />

im Vordergrund stand. Der Übergang von der flüssigen mizellaren Lösung in eine<br />

gelartige oder feste Phase bei hohem Druck oder tiefer Temperatur ist verknüpft <strong>mit</strong><br />

dem Verschwinden eines Korrelationspeaks in der Kleinwinkelstreuung, der die Aggregation<br />

der geladenen Mizellen charakterisiert. Gleichzeitig verändert sich aber auch die<br />

Konformation der Alkylketten, was sich in den Schwingungsspektren bemerkbar macht.<br />

Die Stabilitätsbereiche von flüssigen Lösungen, gelartigen und festen Phasen konnten<br />

durch Kombination beider Untersuchungsmethoden detailliert bestimmt werden. Dabei<br />

ergab sich insbesondere bei hohen Tensidkonzentrationen und bei höheren Drücken<br />

ein ausgeprägtes Zwei-Phasengebiet. Darüber hinaus wurde in Systemen <strong>mit</strong> genügend<br />

langen Alkylketten, wie z. B. C16H33, eine gelartige intermediäre Phase beobachtet.<br />

Wie zeitabhängige Experimente ergaben, ist die Kristallisationskinetik außerordentlich<br />

langsam <strong>mit</strong> charakteristischen Zeiten im Bereich von einigen Stunden.<br />

Spinnendseide, besonders die Seide der Rahmenfäden, ist wegen ihrer ungewöhnlichen<br />

Wissenschaft gerückt [1]. Trotz der zunehmenden <strong>Forschung</strong> an Spinnenseide ist die<br />

Verknüpfung der Struktur <strong>mit</strong> den mechanischen Eigenschaften weitgehend unverstanden<br />

[2]-[4]. Um diese Korrelation genauer zu untersuchen, wurde eine Kombination<br />

Durch den Wassergehalt von Holz lassen sich die mechanischen Eigenschaften von Holz<br />

drastisch ändern. Bei nassem Holz, wie es ja auch der Baum verwendet, sind sowohl der<br />

Elastizitätsmodul als auch die Bruchfestigkeit niedriger als bei trockenem oder leicht<br />

feuchtem Holz, wie wir es als Konstruktionsmaterial einsetzen. Auf mikroskopischer<br />

Ebene sind die Mechanismen, die zu diesen großen mechanischen Unterschieden führen,<br />

noch nicht bekannt.<br />

Seit vielen Jahren wird Röntgenstreuung zur Untersuchung der Mikro- und Nanostruktur<br />

von Holz eingesetzt; u. a. können die Gitterkonstanten der kristalline Zellulose–<br />

Mikrofibrillen und deren Orientierungsverteilung bestimmt werden. Es ist auch ein<br />

direkter Zugang zum sogenannten Mikrofibrillenwinkel (MFA) möglich, der als der<br />

Steigungswinkel der helikalen Anordnung der Mikrofibrillen in der Zellwand in Bezug<br />

auf die longitudinale Zellachse definiert ist. An Synchrotronstrahlungsquellen <strong>mit</strong> ihrer<br />

hohen Brillanz können Mikrostrahlen in den Streuexperimenten verwendet werden, die<br />

eine mikroskopische Ortsauflösung und da<strong>mit</strong> Abrastern ermöglichen.<br />

Wir kombinieren Streckexperimente an Nadelholz (Fichte und Kiefer) in situ <strong>mit</strong> Röntgendiffraktion.<br />

Mit einer neuartigen Probenumgebung können wir den Wassergehalt der<br />

Proben kontrollieren. Dünne Holzfolien wurden am HASYLAB (A2) untersucht, einzelne<br />

Holzzellen am ESRF (Mikrofokus–Beamline ID13), um auch den Einfluß des Zellverbandes<br />

zu er<strong>mit</strong>teln. Unsere Ergebnisse erlauben es, erstmals ein mikroskopisches<br />

Modell für die unterschiedlichen Verformungsmechanismen in trockenem und nassem<br />

Holz zu entwickeln. Hierin spielt die weiche Matrix aus ungeordnetem und für Wasser<br />

zugänglichen Material, in die die Mikrofibrillen im Sinne eines Verbundmaterials<br />

eingebettet sind, eine entscheidende Rolle.

Melittin, a 26 amino acid peptide, is the toxin of bee venom with hemolytic and antibacterial<br />

activity. It binds to natural and model lipid membranes and at high molar<br />

ratios disrupts them. Using X-ray diffraction, we studied the influence of melittin on<br />

the phase behaviour of model lipid membranes composed of phospholipids with various<br />

headgroups: phosphatidylcholine, prevalent in membranes of red blood cells, phosphatidylethanolamine,<br />

main component of bacterial membranes, and phosphatidylglycerol,<br />

also important in bacterial membranes. We also studied lipid mixtures mimicking<br />

the composition of cell membranes. At lipid:protein ratios used in this study, 50 to<br />

10000, the membrane is preserved, but melittin induces phase changes. In pal<strong>mit</strong>oyloleoyl<br />

phosphatidylethanolamine, melittin induces two coexisting cubic phases and in<br />

pal<strong>mit</strong>oyl-oleoyl phosphatidylcholine a phase separation in the lamellar phase.

Bicontinuous microemulsions, consisting of water, oil and a surfactant (C10E4), have<br />

been studied with neutron spin echo spectroscopy (NSE) and small angle neutron<br />

scattering (SANS). Addition of diblock copolymers (PEPX-PEOX) or homopolymers<br />

(PEPX and PEOX, X=5 k or 10 kg/mol molecular weight) allows a tuning of the<br />

membrane properties such as the bending rigidity κ in such systems.<br />

The dynamics of bicontinuous microemulsions has been studied with NSE. On lenght<br />

scales of the order of the characteristic structural distance d (i.e. scattering angles<br />

≈ qo = 2π/d) of the microemulsion, two contrasts for neutrons have been used: bulk<br />

contrast, where the dynamics of the oil/water difference is visible, and film contrast<br />

which reveals the surfactant layer fluctuations. Comparison with theoretical predicitons<br />

of the relaxation shed light on hydrodynamic interactions in bicontinuous microemulsions.<br />

On shorter length scales (i.e. larger scattering angles, q > 4q0), the bending modulus κ<br />

is obtained from a numerical integration of the intermediate scattering function S(q, t)<br />

of the Zilman-Granek model [1]. It is shown that the analysis of the dynamics gives<br />

a direct access to the ”bare” membrane bending moduls κ, which is compared to the<br />

renormalized one as obtained from SANS[2]. The difference between the two ways of determining<br />

κ is the renormalization factor, as predicted by theory. A decrease (increase)<br />

of the bending rigidity has been observed when homopolymers (diblock copolymers)<br />

have been added, in agreement with theoretical predictions.<br />

Organic material devices have gained a lot of attention from last decade due to their<br />

application to polymeric electronic devices such as light-e<strong>mit</strong>ting diodes, Field-effect<br />

transistor(FETs), and photovoltaic cells (PVs). The special interest are focus on the<br />

low-cost devices based on polymeric materials prepared by simple solution processing.<br />

Regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) is one of the most promising polymer<br />

material for such purpose having high charge carrier mobility. Up-to now one of the<br />

fundamental problems in polymer transistors are to understand the relation between<br />

the surface morphology and the charge transport as they have relatively low chargecarrier<br />

mobility compared to inorganic semiconductor devices.<br />

Therefore our studies are focussed on the investigation of the structural order [1]<br />

and the degree of crystallinity of semicrystalline thin films (few nm) of low and high<br />

molecular weight of P3HTs using X-ray scattering techniques. For detailed studies<br />

grazing incidence X-ray diffraction [2,3] (GID) has employed to determine the vertical<br />

and lateral structures of films, additionally, X-ray reflectivity technique has been used<br />

to know the average thickness of such organic thin films using synchrotron radiation<br />

source. The degree of crystallinity was determined utilising Rulands method [4]. The<br />

present status of our calculations suggests that P3HT thin films having low molecular<br />

weight show a high degree of crystallinity compared to films with high molecular<br />

weight. This has been explained by the fact that crystalline parts of P3HT are embedded<br />

into the amorphous matrix. Temperature and concentration dependent study<br />

of the interplaner distances d of the P3HT thin films have shown that the d spacing<br />

increases with temperature and depending on layer thickness. In general, structural investigations<br />

at thin polymer films suffer from possible beam damage caused by probing<br />

high-intense synchrotron radiation. Therefore the content of structural investigations<br />

received from experiment might depend on the synchrotron radiation source for the<br />

experiment.<br />

The influence of shear on crystallization behavior of emulsified triacylglycerols (TAG)<br />

is investigated using a new micro-Couette device consisting of two coaxial quartz capillaries.<br />

The setup allows for simultaneous measurement of thermal and structural<br />

properties of micro samples under shear or in quiescent conditions. Small and wide<br />

angle X-ray diffraction is performed simultaneously with DSC measurements under or<br />

in the absence of shear. A structural study of lipids under shear was undertaken by<br />

Mazzanti et al. focussing on bulk lipids [1]. Hereafter, the crystallization behavior<br />

of a model emulsion consisting of palm oil stabilized with sodium caseinate (SC) is<br />

analyzed. The combination of the thermal and structural measurements allows for<br />

the determination of the molecular packing of lipids[2] even within emulsion droplets.<br />

In quiescent conditions where a detailed study recently showed the influence of the<br />

concentration of an emulsifier of the crystallisation behaviour[3], a lamellar phase of<br />

TAG of 2Lα type crystallizes first showing a d-spacing of 41 ˚A on cooling. Its progressive<br />

transformation through a monotropic phase transition 2Lα 2Lβ is observed<br />

during the subsequent heating. However, under shear conditions, the more stable 2Lβ<br />

lamellar phase crystallizes first but partially with a smaller d-spacing of 37 ˚A. A still<br />

liquid remaining moiety of the roplets crystallizes in the unstable 2Lα, alike in static<br />

conditions. It can be concluded that shear stress favors the formation of more stable<br />

polymorphs within emulsiondroplets of oil in water emulsions.<br />

The polypropylene glycol 4000 (PPG4000) - isobutane interface was studied by x-ray<br />

reflectivity measurements. The interface was investigated under different pressures<br />

between 1.0 bar and 2.6 bar which is close to the condensation pressure of isobutane<br />

at the temperature of 289 K. While adsorption of molecular thin films of isobutane is<br />

expected for hydrophobic interacting systems like glycerol-isobutane or water-propane,<br />

the formation of isobutane films on PPG4000 surface is suppressed by the high miscibility<br />

of isobutane and PPG4000. Thus no evidence for the formation of isobutane<br />

films was found.<br />

The surface roughness of the substrate was estimated to vary between σN2 = 4 ˚A at<br />

1 bar N2 and σ2.6 = 8 ˚A at 2.6 bar isobutane pressure. This is explained by the change<br />

of surface tension of the PPG4000-isobutane mixture with isobutane pressure.<br />

Ideal solution of isobutane in PPG4000 regarding to Raoult’s Law [1] is assumed to describe<br />

the measurements. The surface tension γ is calculated with the capillary waves<br />

theory to confirm the ideal solution with theoretical models for surface tension behavior<br />

of binary liquid mixtures. The Parachor-method [2] and gradient theory [3] are<br />

applied. The measurements show very good agreement with the theoretical calculation.<br />

Kohlenhydrate sind ein zentraler Bestandteil biologischer Strukturen. Die große Anzahl<br />

verschiedener Mono-, Di- sowie Oligosaccharide und die daraus resultierenden<br />

Verknüpfungsmöglichkeiten ermöglichen es der Natur, aus einem großen Pool an Verbindungen<br />

zu schöpfen [1]. Diese natürlichen Bausteine bieten die Möglichkeit durch<br />

unterschiedliche Synthesevariationen eine große Strukturvielfalt zu verwirklichen.<br />

Es wurden Verbindungen <strong>mit</strong> unterschiedlichen Kohlenhydratkopfgruppen (Maltose,<br />

Melibiose, Lactose, Glucose), unterschiedlichen Ketten und Kettenlängen (linear gesättigt,<br />

linear ungesättigt, methyliert), Spacern (Ethanolamin, Serinol) und Bolastruktur<br />

synthetisiert. Durch diese systematische Variation der Molekülstruktur konnte der<br />

Zusammenhang zwischen Struktur und Aggregationsverhalten in verdünnter Lösung<br />

<strong>mit</strong>tels Neutronenkleinwinkelstreuung (SANS) und in Ergänzung Dynamischer Lichtstreuung<br />

(DLS) untersucht werden. Ein Großteil der untersuchten Lipide bildet Micellen<br />

in wässriger Lösung. Daraus konnte ein detailliertes Konzept für die Micellbildung<br />

von Kohlenhydratamphiphilen abgeleitet werden. Die Änderung der micellaren Strukturen<br />

kann einem generellen Strukturkonzept angepasst werden. Die Art der Kopfgruppe<br />

und die Variation der hydrophoben Kette bestimmen die Form der Aggregate.<br />

Die Funktionalität biologisch relevanter Strukturen (z.B. methylierte Alkylketten in<br />

Pflanzen/Tieren, Bolastruktur) überträgt sich auch auf das Aggregationsverhalten in<br />

verdünnter Lösung.<br />

To date, the development of microfluidic devices is li<strong>mit</strong>ed by the lack of fundamental<br />

understanding of the physical phenomenon that take place at the interface between<br />

a complex fluid (e.g. a multicomponent polymer blend or solution) and a surface.<br />

Overcoming the phenomenological descriptions of the progression of fluid fronts, phase<br />

separation and ordering processes at surfaces would bring new opportunities to taylor<br />

the properties of a substrate in order to control the behaviour of complex fluids and<br />

therefore perform specific tasks (spatial control of chemical reactions, patterning).<br />

Our approach to these problems is a multidisciplinary one, involving groups with<br />

expertise in the field of sample preparation (generating a surface free energy gradient<br />

at the ad hoc lengthscale), characterisation (via real space microscopic techniques and<br />

scattering of X-rays and/or neutrons for the reciprocal space) and theoretical modelling.<br />

We have concentrated our attention on motion of liquids confined in geometries with<br />

gradually changing conditions, and more specifically on systems where the wall properties<br />

display a linear gradient. The properties studied can be either physical (such as<br />

the surface roughness) or chemical such as the composition.<br />

We will here report on the reciprocal space investigation of the fluid´s internal structure<br />

variations induced by the presence of the interface.

Future generations of microelectronic devices will require both, ever-decreasing critical<br />

dimensions and shrinking tolerance on those dimensions. The rising costs and complexity<br />

associated with lithographically created structures at the nanometer length scale<br />

opened opportunities for alternative techniques. Following this track, self-assembly in<br />

physical systems can play a key role in future technological applications.<br />

Extremely promising candidates are nanostructured polymer films built up from diblock<br />

copolymers. The typical dimensions of the microphase separation structures<br />

are in the nanometer regime, yielding the desired nanostructured films [1]. These dimensions<br />

are determined by the fundamental properties of the diblock copolymer and<br />

can be adjusted by changing the total copolymer molecular weight while keeping the<br />

molecular weight ratio between the blocks constant. In the case of a thin film, the solid<br />

support is completely covered by the nanostructured polymeric layer. Alternatively, a<br />

superstructure can be imposed, replacing the thin film geometry. As a typical example,<br />

the initially continuous polymer film is replaced by an assembly of isolated polymer<br />

droplets, called nano-dots. Inside the host structure of these nano-dots, the microphase<br />

separation structure is present. Consequently, this type of system exhibits two characteristic<br />

lateral lengths, the first given by the microphase separation structure and the<br />

second resulting from the spacing of the nano-dots assembled upon the solid support.<br />

With the advanced scattering technique of grazing incidence small-angle scattering<br />

with synchrotron radiation and neutrons (GISAXS and GISANS) lateral lengths in a<br />

regime from molecular to micrometer-sized are covered [2]. Thus the addressed range is<br />

quite comparable to AFM or SEM, but the probed surface area is macroscopic instead<br />

of microscopic.<br />

sie sofort auf den Dampf: Die Filme quellen während der ersten Minuten, und es<br />

werden zusätzlich andere Orientierungen beobachtet als die senkrechte. Beim Trocknen<br />

des Films stellt sich jedoch die rein senkrechte Orientierung wieder ein [2]. Sind die<br />

Lamellen zunächst parallel zum Substrat, quellen sie während der Dampfbehandlung<br />

zunächst an. Nach einigen Minuten wird dieser Zustand jedoch instabil, was zu Undulationen<br />

der lamellaren Grenzflächen führt. Später werden die lamellaren Grenzflächen<br />

We report in-situ grazing incidence x-ray diffraction (GID) experiments to study aqueous<br />

solution-gas interfaces of the sodium halogenides NaCl, NaBr and NaI performed<br />

at ID10B, ESRF. The out-of-plane diffusely scattered signal yields information about<br />

the lateral structure of the investigated samples surface. The scattered signal can be<br />

used to test the simple capillary waves model down to nanometer length scales. Using<br />

the Distored Wave Born Approximation (DWBA) for the data analysis, a possible<br />

wave vector dependence of the surface tension can be determined. GID scans of the<br />

salt solutions (5 molar) and pure water were performed up to wave vector transfers<br />

parallel to the surface q|| of approximately two inverse angstroms. The measured data<br />

for the salt solutions and pure water are compared with theoretical calculations of the<br />

scattered signal based on the DWBA theory using both, a constant surface energy and<br />

a wave vector dependent surface energy based on the work of Mecke et al [1] . For a<br />

better description of the data, measurements of the bulk structure factors of all liquids<br />

were performed at the synchrotron source DELTA, BL9.<br />

The refinements of these measured structure factors were included into the calculations<br />

of the diffusely scattered signal. We observe for all liquids a reduction of the surface<br />

energy at short length scales. This effect seems to be similar for all liquids and will<br />

be explained in an alternative way by inclusion of lateral movements into the capillary<br />

waves model.<br />

We focus on the creation of nanostructured TiO2 thin films, which are of great interest<br />

for many applications, due to their electrical performance. The performance is strongly<br />

dependent on the morphology of the nanocomposite films, therefore it is very important<br />

to prepare the desired morphology with high reproducibility and homogeneously spread<br />

out over areas of cm 2 . For the preparation of the TiO2 nanocomposite films we combine<br />

the amphilic diblock-copolymer PS-b-PEO, which acts as a templating agent, with an<br />

inorganic sol-gel chemistry [1]. First, the diblock copolymer is dissolved in 1.4-dioxane,<br />

which is a good solvent for both, the hydrophobic as well as the hydrophilic block of PSb-PEO.<br />

Afterwards, hydrochloric acid (HCl) and titanium tetraisopropoxide (TTIP)<br />

are added into the polymer solution as the source for the sol-gel process. Because<br />

HCl and TTIP are poor solvents for the hydrophobic block, a so-called good-poorsolvent<br />

pair induced phase separation leads to the formation of nanostructures by film<br />

preparation via spin-coating. The different morphologies can be controlled by the<br />

weight ratios of the solvents. In order to obtain crystalline TiO2 films as the final step<br />

calcination is conducted at higher temperature in air.<br />

For the investigation of the morphologies of the sol-gel templated nanocomposite<br />

films grazing incidence small angle x-ray scattering (GISAXS) is performed at the synchrotron<br />

beamline BW4 of the DESY HASYLAB facillity in Hamburg [2]. For the<br />

experiments a morderate micro-focussed beamsize of 30 x 60 µm 2 is used, which also<br />

enables to investigate local gradients of the thin film morphology. The GISAXS experiments<br />

are conducted on various substrate materials with different surface roughnesses<br />

and variations in the morphology of the nanocomposite films. The GISAXS scattering<br />

patterns exhibit features clearly correlated to morphologies of ordered nanostructures,<br />

whereas the calcination may cause further ordering. It is also observed that the<br />

nanocomposite films on top of a surface with ordered nanoscale roughness influence<br />

the scattering patterns.<br />

In addition to the x-ray scattering, analytical methods as atomic force microscopy<br />

(AFM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) are used for characterization. The<br />

results of AFM and SEM characterization are in good agreement with the GISAXS<br />

experiments.<br />

The classic nonionic surfactant C14E7 (heptaethylene glycol monotetradecyl ether)<br />

were investigated at two constant concentrations of 0.17 %, 0.5 % in heavy water solutions<br />

at room temperature without and with add of alcohols ethanol and glycerol with<br />

used the small angle neutron scattering method. The influence of pH on aggregation in<br />

these solutions were investigated, too. All SANS measurements were performed on the<br />

time-of-flight spectrometer MURN of the pulsed reactor IBR-2, JINR, Dubna, Russia.<br />

Neutrons were used in wavelength range of 8 x 10 −3 to 0.4 ˚A −1 .<br />

For the measurements quartz cells of thickness 2 mm were used. They were sealed to<br />

prevent evaporation during the experiment. Up to 15 such cells were placed in a sample<br />

holder, and the temperature within the cells was kept constant in a range of ± 0.5 ◦ C by<br />

means of a thermostat. Conversion of the scattered intensities into absolute differential<br />

cross-sections was done by using an internal calibration standard (vanadium). For all<br />

samples D2O was used as solvent in order to achieve good contrast conditions.

The development of new inorganic materials with good thermal stability and high<br />

proton-conductivity gained an additional importance due to their potential application<br />

as additives for polyelectrolyte membranes for fuel cells. Recently, it was proved that<br />

the incorporation of mesoporous molecular sieves (MCM-41) caused an improvement of<br />

the methanol barrier properties of polyelectrolyte membranes for DMFC applications<br />

[1]. Even better results could be achieved after the surface modification of MCM-41<br />

with proton-conducting groups derived from imidazole rings attached to organosiloxanes<br />

[1]. The use of sulphonated oxadiazole-based telechelics as modifiers of organically<br />

modified silicas (ormosils) containing C-Br bounds at the surface, lead to membranes<br />

with improved proton-conductivity and stability at temperatures higher than 373 K<br />

[2].<br />

In the present communication, the very first results concerning the preparation and<br />

structural characterisation of sulphonated MCM-41 are presented. These organicinorganic<br />

materials were prepared by hydrolysis and condensation of a silica source<br />

and a sulphonated alkoxysilane (SAS). The aforementioned alkoxysilane was produced<br />

in situ via reaction between 2,5-diaminobenzenesulfonic acid and 3-glycidyloxypropyltrimethoxysilane<br />

(GLYMO). SAXS experiments were carried out at A2 beamline at<br />

HASYLAB (DESY) in order to confirm the formation of the MCM-41 mesophase.<br />

It was observed that the polycondensation of the sulphonated alkoxysilane did not<br />

produce any meso-structured material even in the presence of surfactant micelles as<br />

templates. However, the combination of the sodium metasilicate and the SAS enable<br />

the production of materials with a well-ordered hexagonal array of cylindrical pores<br />

(MCM-41), which were stable after the removal of the template by ethanol:heptane<br />

acidic mixtures. This extraction with acidic mixture leads to the partial removal of the<br />

sulphonated alkoxysilane moieties. On the other hand, the co-polymerisation between<br />

the SAS and tetramethoxysilane produced materials with less-ordered array of pores,<br />

although little extraction of AS could be observed after the removal of the template<br />

by the acidic ethanol:heptane mixture. New experiments are been currently carried<br />

out in order to optimize the reaction between sodium metasilicate and SAS aiming at<br />

developing of meso-structured materials with higher functionalization degrees.<br />

Spider dragline silk is known for its outstanding mechanical properties which it obtains<br />

despite being spun at close to ambient temperature and pressure using water as a<br />

solvent. Our study using neutron diffraction, neutron backscattering and time-of-flight<br />

spectroscopy aims at elucidating the crucial role of adsorbed water to spider silk. As<br />

spider silk is currently only available in li<strong>mit</strong>ed quantities from living spiders, a major<br />

challenge has been met in establishing the feasibility of neutron scattering experiments.<br />

Spider dragline silk is a semicrystalline biopolymer made out of an aminoacid sequence<br />

with dominating alanine and glycine molecules. From diffraction studies, a model of<br />

a fibrillar structure made out of small crystalline blocks in a matrix containing both<br />

partly oriented and unoriented amorphous material has been proposed. The crystalline<br />

fraction is composed basically out of poly(alanine) chains while the oriented amorphous<br />

fraction is glycine rich. This oriented material seems to be connected by a further fraction<br />

of random polymer chains. Although the aminoacid sequence in the polymer chains<br />

is being unravelled, our understanding of the link between primary structure and function<br />

remains li<strong>mit</strong>ed. The mechanical properties of spider silk are strongly influenced<br />

by its water content and water-induced mobility at a molecular level. Thus in order<br />

to obtain its superior mechanical properties, the extruded fibre - which is spun from<br />

aqueous solution - has to be rapidly dried. X-ray small- and wide-angle scattering shows<br />

that the water content does not influence the fibrillar system. Apparently the water is<br />

absorbed by the random polymer chains whereas the crystallites are not accessible to<br />

the guest molecules. Since spider silk is exposed in nature to different humidity levels,<br />

it is interesting to note that the absorption of water is reversible. It seems that the<br />

polymer matrix mechanically behaves like a rubber when swollen with water.<br />

We present recent results from neutron small-angle scattering, neutron diffraction and<br />

neutron spectroscopic experiments on oriented spider dragline silk fibres as a function<br />

of temperature and humidity [1,2], as well as complementary synchrotron microbeam<br />

experiments.<br />

We investigate lamella-forming polystyrene-b-polyisoprene coploymer films with embedded<br />

Fe2O3 nanoparticles. The used block copolymer is asymmetric and forms a<br />

microphase separation structure due to the incompatible block segments PS and PI.<br />

For the thin film preparation we apply two well-known techniques, spin-coating and<br />

solution-casting. From PS-b-PI/Fe2O3 nanoparticles mixtures, dissolved in toluene, we<br />

are able to produce the desired thin polymer films on precleaned Si subtrates. Annealing<br />

induces further self-organisation. Various concentrations of nanoparticles result in<br />

different physical properties of the polymer matrices. Magnetic measurements indicate<br />

superparamagnetic behaviour of the nanoparticles at 300K and a ferromagnetic order at<br />

very low temperatures. In the ferromagnetic state the nanoparticles possess a constant<br />

coercivity irrespective of their volume fraction. Investigations with optical microscopy<br />

on macroscopic and atomic force microscopy (AFM) on microscopic length scale provide<br />

information about the surface. Structural composition, topography and distribution of<br />

the nanoparticles within the thin layers are obtained by grazing incidence small angle<br />

X-ray scattering (GISAXS) and X-ray reflectivity. GISAXS experiments are performed<br />

at beamline BW4 at HASYLAB/DESY in Hamburg and beamline ID13 at ESRF in<br />

Neutrons unlike x-rays are severely li<strong>mit</strong>ed in source brilliance, and thus experiments<br />

concerning soft matter interfaces or quasi-twodimensional systems are often rendered<br />

impossible by this restriction. If, however, a sufficient scattering volume can be achieved,<br />

a wealth of new information can be obtained by high energy resolution neutron<br />

spectroscopy. Here we discuss a recent example.<br />

Experiments carried out on model lipid membrane bilayer systems using the neutron<br />

backscattering technique [1-2] point to the new possibilities introduced by the<br />

availability of adequate lipid membrane samples. These samples consist of stacks of<br />

several thousand lipid membrane bilayers supported by silicon wafers. The mosaicity<br />

of the membrane stack is smaller than approx. 0.5 ◦ . By the cold neutron backscattering<br />

technique an energy resolution of 0.9 µeV FWHM can routinely be achieved whilst a<br />

wavevector transfer range of approx. 0.02 ˚A −1

The structure of the interface between organic matter, such as self-assembled monolayers<br />

(SAMs), and water is currently subject of intensive studies due to its importance for<br />

the understanding of surface-solvent and surface-surface interactions [1,2]. Our focus<br />

here are OEG-terminated SAMs which are used to make surfaces resistant to protein<br />

adsorption. We report our recent results from a Neutron Reflectivity (NR) study. The<br />

in-situ measurements reveal changes in the structure of water and the protein solution<br />

in the vicinity of the SAM upon changes in temperature. This study is complemented<br />

by Polarisation Modulated (PM) Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) investigations,<br />

which help to shed light on the problem of the subtle interactions at the<br />

organic solid-liquid interface. The benefit of using IR along with NR is also that we<br />

are more sensitive to the defect structure of the organic interface, which has an impact<br />

on the interaction with water.<br />

QENS and nuclear magnetic resonance studies of Q10-nanodispersions<br />

In recent years it has become evident that the development of new drugs alone is not<br />

sufficient to ensure progress in drug therapy. Today there are many drugs which in<br />

spite of their high pharmacological potential cannot be administered using standard<br />

formulations because of e.g. side effects, targeting problems or adverse release effects.<br />

Reasons can be: poor drug solubility in aqueous solutions, chemical instability of the<br />

drug, insufficient drug concentration due to poor absorption, rapid metabolism and<br />

elimination.<br />

A promising strategy to overcome these problems involves the development of suitable<br />

drug carrier systems. The in vivo-fate of the drug is no longer mainly determined by<br />

the properties of the drug, but by the carrier system, which should per<strong>mit</strong> a controlled<br />

and localized release of the active drug according to the specific needs of the therapy<br />

[1].<br />

We examine colloidal drug carrier systems like nanodispersions and solid lipid nanoparticles<br />

(SLN). The dispersions are prepared by high pressure homogenization of a predispersion<br />

of the molten lipid with water and emulsifiers.<br />

The heart-protecting drug ubidecarenone (coenzyme Q10) is of special interest due to<br />

its biological effects in the human body. Coenzyme Q10 is an antioxidant with very<br />

poor solubility in aqueous media and is naturally found throughout the body.<br />

High supercooling of Q10 and the formation of stable Q10-containing nanodispersions<br />

have been observed. The virtual insolubility of Q10 in water results in a very poor<br />

peroral bioavailability from conventional dosage forms. Processing into nanoparticles<br />

of supercooled melts lead to improved bioavailability [2].<br />

Q10-nanodispersions were investigated by means of QENS and pulsed field gradient<br />

(PFG) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) for determination of self diffusion coefficients<br />

and internal motions like methyl group rotations. These methods provide complementary<br />

data: PFG-NMR allows the measurement of self diffusion coefficient of the<br />

nanoparticle and QENS the determination of the diffusion coefficient of the drug inside<br />

the nanoparticle.<br />

Nanostructure Evolution and Nanostructure Gradients in Oriented Polymer<br />

Parts<br />

Norbert Stribeck 1<br />

1 Universität Hamburg, Institut TMC, Bundesstr. 45, 20146 Hamburg<br />

The semicrystalline nanostructure of anisotropic samples made from commercial polymers<br />

is visualised from small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) data and compared to<br />

the information gathered by simultaneous two-dimensional wide-angle X-ray scattering<br />

(WAXS). The method is based on a combination of advanced experimental technique<br />

and novel methods of data analysis based on Fourier transformation theory.<br />

To-date manageable is the experimental and analytical effort for samples with fibre<br />

symmetry. From time-resolved experiments at a synchrotron source conclusions on<br />

the mechanisms of structure evolution can be drawn. Spatial resolution is achieved by<br />

tomographic reconstruction starting from a set of 7000 scattering patterns recorded<br />

while scanning a thick sample. As a result information is retrieved on the variation<br />

of nanostructure inside a fibre. Experiments have been performed using commercial<br />

grades of various polymers (PE, UHMWPE, PP, PVDF). Adequately evaluated and<br />

published are studies of PE and UHMWPE materials, which are presented.<br />

Concerning the mechanisms of structure evolution during quiescent crystallisation of<br />

polyethylene we have always found that the formation of crystallites is preceded by<br />

the formation of nanostructure (nanoforming) in the melt. the corresponding domains<br />

exhibit a very broad size distribution. We imagine regions that are discriminated by<br />

their entanglement density. Crystallisation is forcing the corresponding nanodomains to<br />

settle down. The places of settlement are random. Thus the population mechanism is<br />

described by Rényi’s random car parking process. Even if the nanoformed domains<br />

are highly oriented lamellae, the crystallite orientation is isotropic. During secondary<br />

crystallisation the first lamellae can grow perfect and reorientation of crystallites is<br />

observed during this period. This principle is not valid for the nanodomains formed<br />

late. They populate the centres of the remnant white spots and, by doing so, are<br />

responsible for the ordered arrangement and the ultimate long period of the crystallised<br />

material, but their crystallites do not show preferential orientation.<br />

The SAXS microtomography of an injection moulded polyethylene rod demonstrates<br />

the method using a “fibre” which is thick enough for the spatial resolution that<br />

presently is accessible at HASYLAB, Hamburg. It is well-known that many fibres<br />

exhibit a core-shell structure and that the shell exhibits a regular and highly oriented<br />

nanostructure that is completely different from that found in the core. By means of<br />

filtered backprojection the studied material is virtually sliced into many small cubes<br />

(voxels) resulting in set of SAXS patterns related each to one of the voxels. Its analysis<br />

shows oriented lamellae stacks in a shell layer and extended chains in the central core of<br />

the fiber. We document zones of uni- and bimodal structure, variation of long periods,<br />

stack heights and lateral domain extension.

QENS as a tool for studying pharmaceutical drug delivery systems<br />

Aqueous nanodispersions of liquid, liquid crystalline and solid lipids are under investigation<br />

as drug delivery systems for numerous therapeutic applications, such as<br />

intraveneous administration of poorly water soluble drugs [1]. The reason for using<br />

a drug carrier is most often to reduce side effects of drugs, to modify the drug release<br />

kinetics or to deliver the drug to a specific body site (drug targeting). Therefore<br />

the mobility of the drug molecules in the drug carrier and their interface cross over<br />

rates are of particular interest in order to understand the drug release behaviour of<br />

such systems. Moreover the dynamics of the carrier and especially of the stabilizer<br />

(emulsifier) molecules should mainly influence drug release rates and physico-chemical<br />

properties of the pharmaceutic formulation such as recrystallisation tendency (stability)<br />

of nanoscaled supercooled melts or the phase behaviour of lipid nanoparticles.<br />

In contrast to lots of publications on microscopic and mesoscopic structural investigations<br />

no investigations on the molecular dynamics of lipid drug delivery systems have<br />

been published so far. This might be due to the lack of experimental methods to investigate<br />

the interesting molecular dynamics within the highly complex native systems.<br />

Pulsed field gradient (PFG) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy can not<br />

be used to determine e.g. the self-diffusion constant of molecules inside nanoscaled dispersed<br />

particles because of the spatially restricted diffusion in a nanoparticle, whereas<br />

relaxation time measurements by 13 C-NMR should reveal information on the molecular<br />

dynamics.<br />

In this contribution the potential of QENS in studying molecular mobilities in complex<br />

pharmaceutical systems will be outlined. First experimental results from nanodispersions<br />

of supercooled melts and phospholipid dynamics used as stabilizer in lipid nano<br />

dispersions will be presented. The measurements have been performed predominantly<br />

at the time-of-flight spectrometer TOFTOF at FRM II.<br />

A principle possibility to use biocompatible a short chain length monocarboxylic acid,<br />

myristic acid (MA), is considered [1]. As a first step, this surfactant is used to coat<br />

magnetite nanoparticles in non-polar organic liquids by the well-proven technology<br />

[2,3]. It results in highly stable magnetic fluids. The new fluids are compared with<br />

classical organic fluids stabilized by unsaturated oleic acid (OA). Parameters of the<br />

log-normal size distribution of magnetite particles are obtained by small-angle scattering<br />

of polarized neutrons (SANSPOL). The method reveals a great difference in the<br />

particle size distribution function for the studied magnetic fluids, particularly a decrease<br />

in the characteristic radius (from 4 to 2.5 nm) and polydispersity (from 0.38 to<br />

0.28) when MA is used instead of OA. These finding is in agreement also with magnetization<br />

and magneto-rheological analysis. One can conclude that monocarboxilic acids<br />

show different efficiency in dispersing different size-fractions of nanometric magnetite<br />

particles. While OA is proved to be highly efficient surfactant to stabilize nanomagnetite<br />

over the wide size interval of 2-20 nm, shorter acids (like MA) stabilize partially<br />

this interval dispersing in the carrier only a fraction of smaller particles. The size regulation<br />

effect is reported when MA/OA mixtures are used in stabilization procedure [4].<br />

Structural investigation on the mode of action of the antimicrobial peptide<br />

gramicidin S - a monolayer study<br />

The antimicrobial function of the amphiphilic peptide gramicidin S (GS) is based on<br />

unspecific attack on the bacterial membrane integrity. The GS structure is a cyclic<br />

beta-sheet, cyclo(Val-Orn-Leu-DPhe-Pro)2.<br />

We present a study which aims to elucidate the fundamental non-specific interactions<br />

governing the phase behavior of both pure GS and mixtures from GS with phospholipids<br />

within Langmuir monolayers. In order to modulate electrostatic interactions<br />

between the basic peptide molecules, we investigated monolayers on buffers with pH<br />

values varied between 2 and 12 at room temperature and ionic strength of 0.19 M. The<br />

pressure-area isotherms recorded for GS monolayers demonstrated marked differences.<br />

The phase transition between two-dimensional liquid and solid phases was observed to<br />

appear at higher lateral pressures at decreased pH. Striking differences were found for<br />

the sizes and shapes of solid domains on the various subphases as observed by Brewster<br />

angle microscopy. The latter even occur in a pH region which is far below from the<br />

ornithin pK value indicating that a large pK shift of the basic ornithine (orn) residues<br />

compared to the bulk appears at the monolayer surface. This pH sensitive behavior is<br />

probably due to the high surface concentration of negative counterions present.<br />

Furthermore, the lateral pressure of GS monolayers at pH 7.5 and constant ionic<br />

strength was found to be dependent on the phosphate concentration. A possible qualtitative<br />

explanation is that divalent phosphate ions present at this pH might bind tightly<br />

to the cationic peptide inducing electrostatic repulsion. This could lead to an additional<br />

contribution to the lateral pressure which increases at higher phosphate concentrations.<br />

Tentatively, one could conclude that the negative surface charge of bacterial<br />

membranes can be enhanced by cationic peptides in the presence of divalent phosphate<br />

anions, resulting in membrane-destabilizing increased lateral pressure.<br />

To investigate structural properties of the antimicrobial peptide, synchrotron X-ray<br />

reflection (XR) and grazing incidence diffraction (GID) experiments were performed<br />

on GS monolayers at HASYLAB, DESY, Hamburg. By use of the latter technique,<br />

the lateral order within the film was studied while the reflectivity measurements provide<br />

information about the electron density profiles in the vertical direction of the<br />

monolayer.<br />

First results are be presented for GS monolayers on different buffers and at varied lateral<br />

surface pressures with and without phospholipids mimicking bacterial membranes.

Im Zusammenhang <strong>mit</strong> dem zunehmenden Interesse bei der Herstellung nanostrukturierer<br />

Materialien wird ein Verständnis der Selbstorganisation von Molekülen auf atomaren<br />

Längenskalen immer wichtiger. Neutronenstreuung kann hier einen wichtigen<br />

Beitrag leisten da die Wellenlänge und die Energie der Probe im Bereich der atomaren<br />

oder molekularen Abstände bzw. Relaxationszeiten liegen. Zusätzlich erlaubt die hohe<br />

Durchdringungskraft von Neutronen für viele Werkstoffe die Untersuchung von Proben<br />

in komplexen Probenumgebungen wie Scherzellen oder verborgene Grenzflächen. Scherung<br />

oder eine Grenzfläche kann Selbstorganisation in komplexen Polymersystemen<br />

induzieren. Scherinduzierte Ordnung ist das Resultat einer äußeren Kraft die auf die<br />

Probe ausgeübt wird. Um Information über den Gleichgewichtszustand (Ruhezustand)<br />

zu erhalten erscheint es daher günstiger eine zur Scherung äquivalente Symmetriebrechung<br />

im System dadurch zu erreichen, dass die Probe in Kontakt <strong>mit</strong> einer festen<br />

Grenzfläche gebracht wird und dort die Grenzflächenstruktur bestimmt wird. Bisherige<br />

Studien beschränken sich meist auf das scherinduzierte Ordnen im Volumen.<br />

In unserer Präsentation werden wir die grenzflächennahe Kristallisation von Polymermizellen<br />

untersucht <strong>mit</strong> Kleinwinkelneutronenstreuung unter steifendem Einfall (NS-<br />

SANS oder GISANS) detailliert diskutieren. Unsere Proben sind drei Blockpolymere<br />

(Pluronics), die in wässriger Lösung zum Agglomerieren neigen. Als feste Grenzflächen<br />

wurden Siliziumwafer <strong>mit</strong> unterschiedlicher Affinität für die Mizellenschale eingesetzt.<br />

Die wichtigsten Resultate lassen sich wie folgt zusammenfassen:<br />

(1) Die Kristallisation ist nahe einer attraktiven Grenzfläche verstärkt, wohingegen<br />

sie in der Nähe einer repulsiven unterdrückt wird.<br />

(2) Das epitaktische Wachstum der Kristallite beginnt an verschiedenen Keimen die<br />

schnell vernetzen. Dies resultiert in einer ausgeprägten Textur, die zu Spannungen<br />

führt und eine Reduzierung der Korrelationslänge zur Folge hat.<br />

(3) Die Kristallisation derselben Phase aus unterschiedlichen Anfangszuständen (z. B.<br />

niedrige/hohe Temperatur) kann zu unterschiedlichen Strukturen führen.<br />

(4) Scherung kann die kristalline Struktur im Falle der attraktive Grenzfläche verstärken,<br />

wohingegen sie im Falle der repulsiven zerstört wird.

Micro mechanical cantilevers covered with polymer brushes are of great interest for<br />

fundamental research and practical applications [1]. Used in fundamental research<br />

they allow an insight into the swelling behaviour of polymer brushes. Furthermore they<br />

can be used for a wide variety of sensor applications. In priciple a micro mechanical<br />

cantilever sensor consist of two main parts: the micromechanical cantilever that acts as<br />

a transducer element and a coating which can be highly specific for different molecules<br />

and produces specific response patterns for various analytes.<br />

As transducers OCTOSENSIS silicon microarrays (Micromotive, Germany) were used<br />

in order to investigate the swelling of polymer brushes. Each chip consists of eight<br />

rectangular cantilevers, with a length of 750 µm, width of 90 µm and thickness of 1 µm<br />

arranged at a pitch of 250 µm. Utilizing an atom transfer polymerisation (ATRP)<br />

“grafting from” technique polymer brushes were grown on the silanated array surface<br />

[2].<br />

The quality of the coating, grafting density of the polymer brushes, layer thickness,<br />

unifor<strong>mit</strong>y of the layer are very important for the response of the sensor on an external<br />

stimulus. In our experiments we investigated the quality of the cantilever coatings,<br />

especially the quality of the gold layer and proofing the existence sharp boundaries between<br />

the polymer coated cantilevers and the ones gold coated. The experiments were<br />

carried out at the BW4 beamline using a micro-focus-GISAXS setup using a detector<br />

sample distance of 1.9 m and a 32x17 µm 2 micro-focus beam [3]. The small beam parameters<br />

allowed to selectively analyze a single microcantilever with respect to coating<br />

unifor<strong>mit</strong>y, composition and thickness in a µ-GISAXS experiment. Our findings clearly<br />

correlate defects in the cantilever coatings to irregular behavior of the sensing element.<br />

The interaction of rare gas clusters with intense vacuum ultraviolett radiation from<br />

the DESY FEL operating at 100 nm wavelength has yielded many surprising results.<br />

For rare gas clusters unexpected high energy absorption was measured and thermionic<br />

electron emission was observed. Already at 10 13 W/cm 2 the clusters completely disintegrated<br />

in a coulomb explosion. These results indicate that for cluster in intense<br />

laser fields down to 100 nm very efficient energy absorption mechanisms exist. From<br />

a theoretical point of view new explanations for the observed energy absorption were<br />

suggested, including atomic corrections to the inverse Bremsstrahlung potentials or<br />

high intermediate charge states in the cluster.<br />

In fall 2005 the FLASH FEL source (DESY VUV-FEL) became operational, currently<br />

producing intense soft x-ray radiation with 32 nm wavelength and power densities of up<br />

to 10 14 W/cm 2 . In the talk first results of the laser cluster interaction at this reduced<br />

wavelength will be presented. The data show less efficient energy absorption from the<br />

laser field and no thermionic electrons. At this reduced wavelength scattering experiments<br />

at nanoparticles become feasible. We show first ultrafast single shot scattering<br />

data from large clusters. The results indicate that the particles stay in tact during<br />

exposure.

At the new VUV-FEL light-source at DESY/Hamburg we performed experiments at<br />

the monochromator beamline PG1 with a two chamber setup. In the front part of the<br />

combined apparatus a spherical multi-detector vacuum chamber with a set of time-offlight<br />

analysers at various angles with respect to the polarisation axis of the FEL was<br />

adjusted to the focus of the beamline. With this setup we performed angle resolved<br />

photoelectron spectroscopy measurements on various rare gases (He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe)<br />

as well as on the small molecules N2 and H2. In the rear part - about one meter behind<br />

the focal point - C60 molecules are evaporated in an oven assembly. Ions generated<br />

by the FEL radiation were detected with an ion time of flight spectrometer. In both<br />

parts data were acquired simultaneously by recording analogue signals of micro channel<br />

plate detectors by means of a multi-channel digitizer card system and oscilloscope,<br />

respectively, recording traces which have time duration of a full FEL pulse train.<br />

An analysis of our recorded data shows clear indications for two-photon processes in<br />

both cases. For the photoelectron spectroscopy part we restrict the presentation of<br />

our results to experiments on neon only as it showed the strongest signals. Here, twophoton<br />

processes can be identified by analysis of either the dependency of the signal<br />

strength on the radiation intensity or the angular distribution of the signal. The former<br />

should reveal a non-linear behaviour, the latter gives rise to angular patterns different<br />

from a distribution of a dipole transition with momentum transfer of ∆l = 1 being<br />

governed by the well-known β-distribution (a 2nd order Legendre polynomial and the<br />

β-parameter). The observation of C60 ions can also gives hints about two-photon processes,<br />

since one would expect just intact C q+<br />

60 ions (q = 1–3) for photon energies of 38<br />

eV under single photon absorption conditions, whereas other traces of fragments, like<br />

, require higher energies.<br />

The theoretical studies [1 - 3] have shown that the orbital part of the magnetic scattering<br />

amplitude contains the term, which is singular at q → 0 and gives rise the<br />

small-angle neutron scattering on the conduction electrons in metals:<br />

σ [q × p]<br />

Fsing = −ir<br />

q2 , (1)<br />

where r =| γ | e 2 /mc 2 = 5.4 · 10 −13 cm and γ = −1.91; p is the electron momentum.<br />

It was shown [1-3] that in metals the scattering cross section dΣ(q)/dΩ is proportional<br />

to (m/M) 2 , where m is the effective mass of electrons (carriers) and M is the<br />

mass of the neutron. For ordinary metals this factor is of order 10 −5 ÷ 10 −6 and the<br />

neutron-electron scattering is negligibly small. However for heavy-fermion substances<br />

m ≈ 100me and (m/M) 2 ∼ 10 −2 . In such cases this scattering could be observed if one<br />

takes into account that dΣ(q)/dΩ is proportional to ϑ −1 for 2Eϑ ≫ T and T/(ϑ 2 E)<br />

for T ≫ 2Eϑ, where ϑ ≪ 1 is scattering angle and E is neutron energy.<br />

In this work [4], SANS experiments were carried out with CeRu2Si2 single crystal in<br />

order to directly observe SANS on heavy fermion quasiparticles and to analyze the<br />

magnetic field effect on this scattering. The system CeRu2Si2 is the archetypal heavy<br />

fermion compound with temperature Kondo TK ≈ 25 K, which has no additional complexity<br />

such as superconductivity, magnetic phase transitions, etc. at T ≤ 1 K.<br />

The SANS experiments were performed at the SANS-1 facility (reactor FRG1, GKSS<br />

Research Centre, Geesthacht, Germany), which operates in near point geometry. In<br />

these experiments the wavelengths λ1 = 8.1 and λ2 = 10.5 ˚A were used. The measurements<br />

were carried out in the range of momentum transfer 7 · 10 −3 < q < 2 · 10 −1 ˚A −1<br />

and the magnetic fields 0 ≤ H ≤ 2.5 T at the temperatures T ≈ 1 and 290 K.<br />

In the course of SANS experiment we found, firstly, the additional small-angle scattering<br />

at q ≤ 0.04 ˚A −1 which may be attributed to the contribution of the neutron-carrier<br />

scattering to the orbital part of the magnetic scattering amplitude in this system, as<br />

predicted in [3]. Secondly, it was found that the applied magnetic field results in both<br />

the increase of the observed scattering and its anisotropy with respect to the field direction.<br />

Moreover, measurements in the magnetic field reveal additional scattering for<br />

q > 0.04 ˚A −1 , which is interpreted as magnetic scattering by spin-density fluctuations<br />

with a correlation radius Rc ≈ 30 ˚A.<br />

Conventional neutron scattering experiments on metallic liquids are restricted to samples<br />

with a melting temperature that is well below 2000 K and that do not react with<br />

their sample holders made of e.g. alumina or SiC. We succeeded to process liquid<br />

droplets of 6-8 mm in diameter in an electromagnetic levitation device on the neutron<br />

time-of-flight spectrometer ToF-ToF of the FRM-II. This containerless processing of<br />

the samples not only gives access to experiments on high temperature and chemically<br />

reactive liquids, but also allows for undercooling the samples several 100 K below their<br />

liquidus. In addition, spectra at large q values can be measured with high accuracy<br />

that are otherwise dominated by Bragg scattering of the sample holders. We report on<br />

quasielastic neutron scattering experiments on liquid Ni as well as Ni and Zr rich alloys.<br />

More than 200 K undercooling and the resulting slowing down of dynamics allowed<br />

for a stringent test of theoretical descriptions of liquid dynamics in these systems.

Magnetic Properties of the Eu-Monochalcogenides at Extreme Pressures<br />

The divalent Eu-chalcogenides EuX (X=O, S, Se, Te) are well-known model substances<br />

for Heisenberg magnetism because of the spin-only J=S=7/2 4f-moment of the Eu 2+ -<br />

ions and their simple NaCl structure. The variation of the magnetic ordering temperatures<br />

with pressure has been intensively studied in the NaCl phases up to 30 GPa using<br />

151Eu-Mössbauer and neutron spectroscopy [1, 2], delivering important information on<br />

the pressure dependence of the magnetic exchange interactions.<br />

Here we present for the first time systematic studies on EuO, EuS, EuSe and EuTe in<br />

their CsCl-type high-pressure phases up to 120 GPa using the 151Eu nuclear forward<br />

scattering (NFS) technique developed at the ESRF, where the present studies as well<br />

as previous studies on other Eu systems were performed [3]. The NaCl to CsCl phase<br />

transitions occur around 45, 20, 15 and 12 GPa for EuO, EuS, EuSe and EuTe, respectively.<br />

The samples were pressurized in a special diamond anvil cell designed to fit into<br />

the cryomagnet at ID22N. At each pressure we measured NFS spectra from 4 K up to<br />

300 K to determine the magnetic ordering temperature TM, the saturation magnetic<br />

hyperfine field Bhf and the isomer shift SIS with respect to an applicable Eu reference<br />

absorber. The results on EuTe in the CsCl phase are already published [3].<br />

In the CsCl-type high-pressure phases of EuSe, EuS and EuO we observe a further<br />

strong increase of the ferromagnetic ordering temperatures TC, reaching 300 K at<br />

77 GPa for EuSe, 295 K at 120 GPa for EuS and 165 K at 75 GPa for EuO. For EuS<br />

the pressure dependent slope of TC denotes a saturation at the highest pressure in a<br />

strongly mixed valent state. In the case of EuO we found at even higher pressures a<br />

strong decrease of TC to 110 K at 92 GPa, a behaviour resembling that of EuO around<br />

30 GPa in the NaCl phase [1]. This behaviour points to the onset of a mixed-valent<br />

state in CsCl-type EuO, which is also reflected by the isomer shift and the variation of<br />

Bhf. We discuss the present results in conjunction with models developed for magnetic<br />

and mixed-valent Eu systems, for instance for Eu metal at high pressures [4].<br />

In-situ X-ray diffraction experiments under ex-<br />

treme pressure p and temperature T conditions<br />

at synchrotron beam lines become more and more<br />

important for Geosciences, Material Sciences,<br />

Chemistry and Physics. Especially for Geoscientists<br />

mineral reactions, phase transitions, as<br />

wheel as fluid rock interaction at enhanced p and<br />

T seem to have the potential to strongly influence<br />

and control the dynamic motions within the<br />

upper and lower mantle of the Earth. Around<br />

25 GPa and 2000 K are required to simulate these<br />

processes in the laboratory. The new installed<br />

MAX200x (Fig. 1) is an excellent tool for these<br />

ambitious experiments. The MAX200x is operated<br />

in the double-stage compression mode, in<br />

which the first stage is the DIA-type apparatus<br />

with six anvils and the second stage consists of<br />

eight anvils. One corner each of all eight cubes<br />

is truncated orthogonally to the spatial diagonal.<br />

The octahedral sample is compressed by<br />

the truncated corner of eight inner cubic anvils, which, in turn, is compressed by the<br />

outer first stage six anvils. Either tungsten carbide or cubic boron nitride is used for<br />

the second stage anvils. This system has a capability of generating pressures up to<br />

25 GPa and temperatures exceeding 2000 K by a resistance furnace. The MAX200x<br />

is movable in y- and z-direction for ± 125 mm and can be rotated up to ± 15. For<br />

detecting the X-rays we use a high purity Germanium detector which is cooled by an<br />

electrical cooler. The Ge-detector is mounted on a goniometer which is adjusted to the<br />

centre of the press and can rotate from 0 ◦ up to 15 ◦ . It is assembled on a stepper motor<br />

driven table which can be displaced in z-, x-, and y-direction. For deformation experiments<br />

and viscosity studies under in situ conditions X-radiography is indispensable.<br />

Furthermore, to measure X-ray absorption as a tool for e.g. in situ density measurements<br />

of melts an ionization chamber is available [1]. First experimental results will<br />

be presented.<br />

Kernstreuung von Synchrotronstrahlung unter hohem Druck: Rückblick<br />

und Ausblick<br />

Gerhard Wortmann 1<br />

Seit dem ersten Nachweis [1] der nuklearen Streuung von Synchrotronstrahlung (SR) im<br />

Jahre 1985 durch Erich Gerdau und Mitarbeiter am HASYLAB (DESY, Hamburg) hat<br />

diese dem Mössbauer-Effekt eng verwandte Methode unter Nutzung der SR-Quellen<br />

der 3. Generation einen großen Aufschwung genommen. Dabei erlaubt die elastische<br />

Kernvorwärtsstreuung (nuclear forward scattering, NFS) die Messung von Hyperfeinwechselwirkungen<br />

[2], so von magnetischen und elektrischen Felder, und die inelastische<br />

Kernstreuung (nuclear inelastic scattering, NIS) die lokale Phononen-Spektroskopie<br />

am Mössbauerkern [3]. Da die SR auf Probengrößen von 10 Mikrometer und kleiner<br />

fokussiert werden kann, sind beide Methoden hervorragend für Experimente unter<br />

hohen bis höchsten Drücken geeignet. Unter der Verwendung von Diamantstempel-<br />

Hochdruckzellen wurden nach kurze Zeit NFS- und NIS Experimente in Druckbereichen<br />

höher 1 Mbar (100 GPa) durchgeführt [4,5,6].<br />

Die von der Paderborner Gruppe an der ESRF durchgeführten NFS und NIS Experimente<br />

werden kurz vorgestellt, so die Unterdrückung des Magnetismus in Laves-<br />

Phasen des Eisens [4], das ungewöhnliche magnetische und gemischt-valente Verhalten<br />

der Eu(II)-Chalkogenide EuX (X = O, S, Se, Te) in den CsCl-Hochdruckphasen [4,7]<br />

und schließlich die Phononen-Spektroskopie an Eisen unter Drücken wie im Inneren der<br />

Erde <strong>mit</strong> der geophysikalisch wichtigen Information über die Schallgeschwindigkeiten<br />

[6,8].<br />

Dann werden aktuelle Entwicklungen, wie sie zur Zeit an anderer Stelle vorangetrieben<br />

werden, vorgestellt, so die zusätzliche Option der hohen Temperaturen, wie sie <strong>mit</strong><br />

Laser-Heizung der Proben in den Hochdruckzellen erreicht werden kann. Zukünftige<br />

Entwicklungen der Kernstreuung unter extremen Bedingungen, wie sie an PETRA-III<br />

möglich werden, werden diskutiert.<br />

The detailed balance of spin, charge, orbital and lattice degrees of freedom gives rise<br />

to highly unusual properties of correlated electron materials,which might be exploited<br />

for applications. The determination of all of these degrees of freedom is essential for<br />

the understanding of the unusual properties. The high energy diffraction at beamline<br />

BW5 at HASYLAB in Hamburg is a highly sensitive probe for structural distortions,<br />

enabling the determination of the lattice degree of freedom. In particular the recent<br />

installation of a 10 Tesla horizontal field magnet opens up unique possibilities to study<br />

the response of the lattice to the application of magnetic fields. In the presentation a<br />

recent examples of a high magnetic field study of rear earth nickel borocarbides will<br />

be presented. Here an increasing magnetic field leads to the stabilization of a spin<br />

density wave and induces quadrupolar ordering.

showed that all samples have a single phase structure: The samples of Manganese<br />

concentration of x = 1 and 0.8 have a hexagonal structure of a space group P63cm<br />

Shungites are carbon-rich rocks of Precambrian age widespread over Russian Karelia.<br />

In recent years they have been attracting much attention due to the prospects of their<br />

various industrial and biomedical applications [1]. A special attention to shungites is<br />

connected with the reported [2] presence of fullerenes in them. In the given work the<br />

analysis of the small-angle neutron scattering data for shungites from different deposits<br />

[3] is reported. It is shown that shungites have a complex pore structure at a nanoscale<br />

of 1-100 nm depending on their origin. Along with it, common features, in particular,<br />

two-level organization at the given scale can be observed. The absorption of heavy<br />

water by shungites is used to match the neutron scattering from open pores and to<br />

separate the information about the open and closed porosity in the samples. The revealed<br />

structural units are compared with the previous experimental results obtained<br />

by the complementary techniques. The work has been performed with the ISTCS support,<br />

project 2769.<br />

Carbonitriden werden außergewöhnliche mechanische, optische, elektronische und chemische<br />

Eigenschaften zugesprochen. Die Gründe dafür sind in der elektronischen Struktur<br />

ihrer chemischen Bindung sowie der atomaren Struktur des keramischen Netzwerks<br />

zu sehen.<br />

Insbesondere in der letzten Dekade wurden viele Versuche unternommen, Materialien<br />

wie BCxNy und SiCxNy herzustellen. Für die hier präsentierten Untersuchungen wurden<br />

Carbonitrid-Nanoschichten <strong>mit</strong> plasma-induzierter chemischer Gasphasenabscheidung<br />

(plasma-enhanced chemical vapour deposition PECVD) <strong>mit</strong> Prekursoren wie Trimethylammoniumboran,<br />

Hexamethyldisilazan and Bis(trimethylsilyl)carbodiimid hergestellt<br />

[1].<br />

Nach der Synthese der Carbonitrid-Schichten wurde das amorphe Material durch<br />

Tempern bei 1000 ◦ C in nanokristallines umgesetzt. Synthese und Kristallisation sind<br />

bisher aber noch nicht genau verstanden.<br />

Es ist von großer Wichtigkeit, das entstandene Material chemisch zu charakterisieren.<br />

Zuerst sollten die chemischen Komponenten bestimmt werden, dann sollte die chemische<br />

Bindung bestimmt werden.<br />

Die Elementzusammensetzung wurde <strong>mit</strong> Elektronenstrahl-Mikroanalyse (EPMA) er<strong>mit</strong>telt.<br />

Die chemischen Bindungszustände von BCxNy and SiCxNy wurden zerstörungsfrei<br />

<strong>mit</strong> TXRF-NEXAFS [2], XPS, TEM-EELS und Raman-Spektroskopie untersucht.<br />

Die TXRF-NEXAFS-Messungen wurden am Elektronenspeicherring BESSY II <strong>mit</strong><br />

Synchrotron-Strahlung durchgeführt.<br />

Die erhaltenen Spektren der Carbonitrid-Schichten wurden <strong>mit</strong> denen binärer Standardmaterialien,<br />

z.B. B4C, BN, SiC, und Si3N4, verglichen. Da<strong>mit</strong> konnte gezeigt werden,<br />

welche Bindungen durch diesen Vergleich identifizierbar waren und welche nicht<br />

Abstract. Welded structures should provide optimum weld microstructure, sound mechanical<br />

properties as well as control of residual stresses and distortions. Hence, in this<br />

study residual stresses in a laser beam welded T-joint of aerospace grade aluminium alloy<br />

were characterized using neutron diffraction. The figures 1 and 2 are schematically<br />

showing the welded airframe section and idealized panel used in this study, respectively.<br />

It is essential to understand the micro-mechanical properties of such new joint types<br />

for successful applications in future aircrafts. Welding start (run-in) and end (run-out)<br />

locations of the T-joints are generally considered as high risk areas with respect to<br />

solidification cracking and crack initiations under external loadings. However, there is<br />

lack of information both on residual stress and fatigue properties of such welds in open<br />

literature. Therefore, detailed analysis of welding induced residual stresses and fatigue<br />

crack propagation behaviours of such welds have to be conducted. These T-joints were<br />

used for the determination of residual stresses and fatigue crack propagation properties.<br />

Higher longitudinal tensile residual stresses are detected at the run-out locations than<br />

at the run-in locations. Measurements in the clip showed that there is a longitudinal<br />

tensile stress peak located about 8 mm from the weld seam. Fatigue crack propagation<br />

tests have shown that the weld seam is not necessarily the preferred crack path if the<br />

local design of the joints is optimised.<br />

Ultra thin films with thicknesses smaller than 10 nm are now widely used e.g. in<br />

the field of microelectronics and neutron optics and there is ongoing research in the<br />

development of smart films in this fields. The physical properties of these films depend<br />

on stoichiometry, impurity content and surface and interface structures of the thin<br />

films. Therefore, there is a strong need for the elemental characterisation of those films<br />

where high accuracy and optimum depth resolution is required.<br />

In the last years the high resolution elastic recoil detection experiment at the Munich<br />

tandem accelerator, using a Q3D magnetic spectrograph was optimized for ultra thin<br />

films analysis. The talk will demonstrate the achievements in terms of depth resolution,<br />

sensitivity and accuracy. The potential of the method will be demonstrated on<br />

several applications where high resolution ERD is the most valuable tool for elemental<br />

profiling.

Die Neutronenkleinwinkelstreuung (SANS) hat sich als wertvolles Instrument zur Analyse<br />

von Inhomogenitäten in technischen Werkstoffen etabliert. Derartige Inhomogenitäten<br />

stellen beispielsweise auch die Ausscheidungen in Werkzeugstählen dar. Deren<br />

Eigenschaften werden von nanometergroßen Sekundärhärtekarbiden bzw. intermetallischen<br />

Ausscheidungen entscheidend geprägt. Eine umfassende Charakterisierung dieser<br />

Ausscheidungen ist deshalb von großer Bedeutung und eine kombinierte Anwendung<br />

von SANS, Transmissionselektronenmikroskopie (TEM) und Atomsondentomograpie<br />

(APT) hat sich diesbezüglich als sehr hilfreich erwiesen [1]. SANS hat dabei den entscheidenden<br />

Vorteil, dass sowohl die Größenverteilung als auch die Volumenfraktion<br />

der Ausscheidungen <strong>mit</strong> hoher Genauigkeit erfasst werden können.<br />

Während des Streuexperimentes wird die Stahlprobe von einem starken Magnetfeld<br />

durchflossen. Näherungsweise liegt so<strong>mit</strong> ein System einer ferromagnetisch gesättigten<br />

Matrix, in welcher nichtmagnetische Ausscheidungen eingebettet sind, vor. Streuphysikalisch<br />

wird dieses System deshalb üblicherweise als einfaches 2-Phasen Modell behandelt.<br />

Es hat sich jedoch herausgestellt, dass für eine korrekte Interpretation der SANS<br />

- Messungen unter Umständen zusätzliche Streubeiträge unterschiedlichen Ursprungs<br />

berücksichtigt werden müssen. Diese stammen zum einen von magnetischen Inhomogenitäten<br />

innerhalb der martensitischen Matrix, hervorgerufen durch deren magnetische<br />

Anisotropie. Zum anderen werden sie durch innere Streufelder, welche sich um die<br />

nichtmagnetischen Ausscheidungen bilden, verursacht [2]. Darüber hinaus hat auch der<br />

paramagnetische Restaustenit, der vor allem in abgeschreckten und kurz ausgelagerten<br />

Stählen vorliegt, großen Einfluß auf eine korrekte Auswertung der Teilchenverteilung.<br />

Die gezielte Kombination der oben genannten Methoden sowie die Notwendigkeit zur<br />

Korrektur der SANS - Daten wird anhand eines konkreten Beispieles dargestellt und<br />

die Vorteile, aber auch die Grenzen dieser Methode für die Analyse von Stählen werden<br />

aufgezeigt. Im speziellen wird auch auf die Abhängigkeit notwendiger Korrekturen von<br />

der vorangegangenen Wärmebehandlung des Werkstoffes sowie auf einen Zusammenhang<br />

<strong>mit</strong> dessen magnetischen Eigenschaften eingegangen.<br />

Creep and shrinkage of concrete specimens occur during the loss and gain of water from<br />

cement paste. In order to better understand the role of water in concrete, a series of<br />

quasi-elastic neutron scattering (QENS) experiments were carried out on cement pastes<br />

with water/cement ratio varying between 0.32 and 0.6. The samples were cured for<br />

about 28 days in sealed containers so that the initial water content would not change.<br />

The QENS spectra differentiated between three different water interactions: water<br />

that was chemically bound into the cement paste, the physically bound or glassy water<br />

that interact with the surface of the gel pores in the paste and free or unbound water<br />

molecules that are in fact confined within the larger capillary pores of cement paste.<br />

The dynamics of the glassy water and free water in an extended time scale, from<br />

a hundred pico-seconds to a few nano-seconds, could be clearly differentiated from<br />

the data. Diffusive motion was characterized by diffusion constants, with significant<br />

reduction compared to the rate of diffusion for bulk water. This reduction of the water<br />

diffusion is discussed in terms of the interaction of the water with the calcium silicate<br />

gel and the ions present in the pore water.<br />

In addition, the short-time dynamics of the hydrogen atoms, mainly determine the<br />

inelastic part of the spectrum, was analysed. The spectrum of the hydrated OPC<br />

samples are very similar, and correlates well with molecular dynamics calculations for<br />

super-cooled water as well as with reconstructed density of states for hydrated calcium<br />

silicate pastes.

Die neue Materialforschungsbeamline Harwi-II am Speicherring Doris (HASYLAB-<br />

DESY) wurde benutzt, um die Textur von kalt stranggepresstem Al90-Cu10 zu untersuchen.<br />

Die Texturanalyse von zweiphasigen Verbundwerkstoffen liefert Informationen<br />

über das Verhalten des Matrixmaterials und des Verbundpartners in Abhängigkeit von<br />

der thermomechanischen Behandlung, den Volumenanteilen und den Korngrößenverteilungen.<br />

Messtechnisch sind Reflexüberlagerungen und geringe Volumenanteile von<br />

besonderer Bedeutung. Während der Verformung der Al90-Cu10 Verbundprobe wird die<br />

relativ weiche Matrix aus Aluminium um die härteren Cu Partikel fließen. Dabei kann<br />

es zum Teil zu starken lokalen Texturen führen. Die für die globale Eigenschaft entscheidende<br />

Textur ist die <strong>mit</strong>tlere Textur über den Querschnitt des Strangpresslings, weshalb<br />

Neutronen oder harte Röntgenstrahlen eingesetzt werden. Je nach Verformungsgrad<br />

werden auch die Cu-Partikel deformiert und bilden die typische Mikrostruktur<br />

<strong>mit</strong> lang gestreckten Körner in Verformungsrichtung. Für die Messungen an Harwi-II<br />

stand ein Mar345 Imageplate Detektor zur Verfügung. Es wurden vollständige Debeye-<br />

Scherrer Ringe der Reflexe Al (111), Al (200), Al (220), Cu (111), Cu (200) and Cu (220)<br />

für die quantitative Texturanalyse benutzt. Dazu wurden insgesamt 19 einzelne Imageplate<br />

Aufnahmen in ω- Schritten von 5 ◦ verwendet. Die partielle Peaküberlagerung von<br />

Cu (111) und Al (200) konnte über Profilfitting getrennt werden. Reine FCC-Metalle<br />

entwickeln beim Strangpressen starke Doppelfasertexturen <strong>mit</strong> den Faserachsen <br />

und . Die Stärke der Faserachsen ist unter anderem abhängig vom Metalltyp,<br />

vom Verformungsgrad und von der Korngröße. Metall-Matrix Verbundwerkstoffe zeigen<br />

eine gegenseitige Beeinflussung, die auch die diesem Experiment auftritt. Die <strong>mit</strong>tels<br />

harter Synchrotronstrahlung gemessene Globaltextur zeigt für beide Komponenten die<br />

bekannte Doppelfaser. Die Textur ist sowohl für die Al-Matrix als auch für das Cu<br />

deutlich schwächer als für vergleichbare einphasige Proben [1,2]. Im Falle des weicheren<br />

Aluminiums wird das homogene Fließen der Al-Körner in Pressrichtung behindert,<br />

so dass sowohl die Kornlängung als auch die Texturschärfe weniger ausgeprägt sind.<br />

Wie die Ergebnisse zeigen, wird dieses Verhalten schon bei 10 Vol.% Cu beobachtet.<br />

Der relativ geringe Cu Anteil führt dazu, dass es nur wenige Cu-Cu Grenzflächen gibt,<br />

trotzdem wird auch bei dem härteren Cu schon eine deutlich ausgeprägte aber wesentlich<br />

schwächere Textur beobachtet. Der innere Verformungsgrad der Cu-Körner weicht<br />

deutlich vom makroskopischen Verformungsgrad von 96 % ab [2].<br />

In-situ experiments at high temperatures have been widely used for the study of phase<br />

transitions and the investigation of thermal expansion coefficients. Crystallographic<br />

texture analysis is in general a time consuming technique, that in-situ experiments are<br />

restricted by the total counting time. Recently developed methods and improvements<br />

in the instrumentation allow fast texture measurements. We have used hard X-rays of<br />

about 100 keV to measure the texture transition as well as the phase transition in a<br />

steel sample. The experiments were done at the high energy beam line BW5 at Hasylab<br />

(Desy-Hamburg/Germany). Using a MAR345 image plate detector one obtains a<br />

set of complete Debeye Scherrer cones each in 1 sec. At room temperature we found<br />

100 % ferrite. During heating up till the austenite region we were able to investigate<br />

the thermal expansion, the texture at some fixed temperatures and the texture relation<br />

between ferrite and austenite. In In our case the Kurdjumov-Sachs model was<br />

found to describe the texture transition between ferrite and austenite. Furthermore,<br />

the program package MAUD offers the possibility to follow the phase transition, so<br />

that the composition at all temperatures can be documented during heating. It has<br />

to be pointed out that the texture influence on the quantitative phase analysis can<br />

be included by MAUD, so that even for strong crystallographic textures the relation<br />

ferrite/austenite can be given very well.

Crystallographic texture investigations of Cu-Nb tubes for industrial applications<br />

Cu- Nb tubes are one of the candidates for the manufacturing of accelerator units<br />

for a linear collider. In order to produce an accelerator unit by hydro-forming the<br />

Cu-Nb tube is the pre-product which should have homogeneous textures around the<br />

perimeter. Beside the type of the initial materials such as the Cu and the Nb alloy<br />

and the production of the pure Cu and the pure Nb tubes the joining technique to<br />

form a Cu-Nb tube composite is of basic interest. The present investigation deals with<br />

co-extruded and explosive bonded material with a final wall thickness of about 4 mm<br />

(Cu 3 mm thick and Nb 1 mm thick). Non-destructive measurements were carried out<br />

on one hand to determine the texture inhomogeneity using thermal neutrons and on<br />

the other hand to study the strain gradient over the tube thickness using synchrotron<br />

radiation. This contribution will focus on the crystallographic texture. Therefore ring<br />

samples were cut samples with a diameter of 140 mm and a width of 15 mm. Due to<br />

the high penetration depth of thermal neutrons the average texture of both phases was<br />

measured. In order to get local textures around the perimeter of the Cu-Nb ring a<br />

Cd-slit for the incoming beam and a similar Cd-slit for the outgoing beam were used.<br />

In both phases typical textures types of fcc-Cu and bcc-Nb were found. By calculating<br />

the orientation distribution function using ISEM (iterative serious expansion method)<br />

one is able to compare quantitatively textures correlated to the processing technique, to<br />

describe texture variations along the perimenter and to study textures changes during<br />

thermo-mechanical treatments (heating, cooling etc.)

The ferromagnetic thermoelastic martensites exhibited by the single and polycrystalline<br />

Ni-Mn-Ga alloys have attracted much attention as potential multifunctional<br />

materials.It is a challenge to develop thin film technology for the production of microand<br />

nanocrystalline Ni-Mn-Ga martensites and to keep their functionality as in the<br />

bulk. In general, because the properties of polycrystalline thin films depend strongly<br />

on their microstructure, an important research area is concerned with the control of<br />

this microstructure, in particular the texture and internal stresses which develop during<br />

deposition and post-deposition annealing processes. As much as the feasibility of<br />

magnetomechanical activation in polycrystalline films is concerned, the crucial point is<br />

to get them in a crystallographic oriented (textured) form.The preferable orientation<br />

of one crystal axis in grains would give rise to the overall magnetic anisotropy of film<br />

as a prerequisite of its macroscopic magnetomechanical response. In metallic films,<br />

texture and martensitic transformation depend on the film thickness.<br />

In this work, we used an X-ray diffraction facility attached to the beam line generated<br />

by ANKA synchrotron source, FZK, Karlsruhe to study a texture and internal stress<br />

problem in Ni-Mn-Ga thin films magnetron-sputtered on alumina ceramic and molybdenum<br />

foil. Series of film/substrate composites with film thicknesses ranging from 0.1<br />

to 5.0 micrometer were fabricated using two targets of different compositions. Films<br />

on substrates were vacuum annealed at 1073 K for 36 ks. The target compositions were<br />

designed to get in annealed films a 5-layered tetragonal and 7-layered orthorhombic<br />

martensitic phases, respectively.<br />

X-ray diffraction mapping was made at 300 and 423 K. An in-house made temperature<br />

controlled heating unit was designed to this aim. The selected values of temperatures<br />

assured our films to be either in martensitic or austenite cubic state. The texture<br />

measurements were performed using 2-teta scans at fixed fi and ki angles which were<br />

varied by the 10 deg. step in a range of 0 – 90 deg. A drastic change of intensity of 202<br />

peak in martensitic phase and sharp changes in mutual intensities of 220 and 400 peaks<br />

in austenic phase as a function of ki was found while fi dependence was neglectful. An<br />

analysis of the results leads to the conclusion about different degree of 110-type fiber<br />

texture for the films of different thickness in both austenite and martensite states.<br />

The perpendicular magnetic anisotropy as a result of fiber texturing and particular<br />

microstructure of martensitic phase formed is proved experimentally for all the films.

Nanoscaled particles play an important role in various fields, e. g. as pigments and<br />

filler material in paints, coatings, castings, pottery or insulating materials. Using<br />

nanoscaled inorganic fillers new products can be developed and product properties can<br />

be optimized. In addition to particle size, the degree of agglomeration has an important<br />

influence on the properties of new materials.<br />

Hanse Chemie develops the technology to synthesize oxide nanoparticles in an aqueous<br />

environment and to transform the particles into organic reactive polymers retaining<br />

their monodispersed structure.<br />

Small angle neutron scattering (SANS) and ultra small angle neutron scattering<br />

(USANS) has been applied for the analysis of size and shape of nanoscaled SiO2 particles<br />

in different organic solvents.<br />

The mean radius of SiO2 particles of the measured samples is in the range of 8<br />

to 40 nm. The size distribution and the corresponding volume fraction reveals that<br />

no agglomeration of SiO2 particles has taken place transferring these particles from<br />

aqueous environment into an organic reactive polymer matrix. The results of the<br />

SANS/USANS measurements are the basis for a patent application.

Die atomare Struktur metallischer Schmelzen ist von grundsätzlichem Interesse sowohl<br />

bezüglich der makroskopischen physikalischen Eigenschaften der Flüssigkeit als auch für<br />

die Einstellung gewünschter Materialeigenschaften der bei der Erstarrung der Schmelzen<br />

gebildeten Festkörper. Insbesondere erwartet man bei unterkühlten metallenen<br />

Schmelzen die Ausbildung einer Nahordnung bestehend aus ikosaedrischen Clustern.<br />

Die experimentelle Untersuchung flüssiger Metalle wird durch die hohen Temperaturen<br />

und die Reaktionsfreudigkeit der Schmelzen erschwert. Eine elegante Lösung sind<br />

tiegelfreie Verfahren, insbesondere die elektromagnetische Levitation. Diese Verfahren<br />

bieten zudem den Vorteil, dass sie eine tiefe Unterkühlung der Schmelze unter die<br />

Gleichgewichtsschmelztemperatur erlauben. In den letzten Jahren ist es gelungen, Levitationsöfen<br />

<strong>mit</strong> den Experimentiereinrichtungen an Röntgen- und Neutronenquellen<br />

zu kombinieren und so<strong>mit</strong> die unterkühlte Schmelze in situ durch Neutronen- und Röntgenbeugung<br />

sowie durch Röntgenabsorptionsspektroskopie zu untersuchen. In diesem<br />

Vortrag wird zunächst ein Überblick über die experimentellen Techniken gegeben und<br />

anschliessend über die erzielten Resultate berichtet.

Transition metal dichalcogenides like WS2 are layer-type semiconductors with energy<br />

band gaps and absorption coefficients which make them candidates for absorber layers<br />

in thin film solar cells. In order to use the advantageous (weak) van der Waals bonding<br />

of the sulfur-terminated (001) lattice planes in these materials thin films have<br />

to be prepared with a strong (001) texture. By time-resolved energy-dispersive X-ray<br />

diffraction (EDXRD) at the beamline F3-HASYLAB, we found that the films always<br />

nucleate with the (001) planes, i.e. the van der Waals planes, parallel to the substrate<br />

surface. For high deposition rates and/or low substrate temperatures a texture crossover<br />

from the (001) to the (100) crystallite orientation occurs during the growth. High<br />

deposition rates, low substrate temperatures or low sputtering pressures lead to a significant<br />

lattice expansion of the crystallites in c direction (up to 3 %). This is most<br />

probably caused by a disturbed or turbostratic film growth induced by the energetic<br />

bombardment during film deposition. Reflected and neutralized energetic ions (Ar 0 ,<br />

S 0 ) from the tungsten target and negative ions (S − ) accelerated in the cathode dark<br />

space constitute the main sources of the energetic bombardment leading to crystallographic<br />

defects. The energy of these particles can be tailored by (i) thermalization<br />

between target and substrate in the sputtering gas or (ii) by a reduction of the discharge<br />

or target voltage, respectively, by a high frequency excitation (13 or 27 MHz) of the<br />

plasma. Another thin film preparation route, which avoids ion-bombardment-induced<br />

defects, is the crystallization of an amorphous sulfur-rich WS3+x (0

Die moderne Luftfahrtindustrie ist bestrebt in naher Zukunft auch bei tragenden Komponenten<br />

aufgrund von Kosten- und Gewichtsreduzierung Nietverbindungen durch geeignete<br />

Schweißverbindungen zu ersetzen. Neben dem Reibrührschweißverfahren stellt<br />

besonders das Laserstrahlschweißen eine wichtige industrielle Anwendung dar. Seit den<br />

siebziger Jahren werden Laser zur Materialbehandlung in der metallverarbeitenden Industrie<br />

eingesetzt. Doch erst im letzten Jahrzehnt wurde das Laserstrahlschweißen auch<br />

für die Luftfahrtindustrie interessant. Die Spannungen innerhalb eines Materials, insbesondere<br />

innerhalb einer Schweißnaht, lassen Rückschlüsse auf die thermo-mechanische<br />

Vorgeschichte und Belastbarkeit des Materials zu. In diesem Zusammenhang werden<br />

<strong>mit</strong>tels CO2-Laser geschweißte Stoßnähte zwischen Aluminiumblechen auf Eigenspannungen<br />

untersucht. Die hierzu nötigen Diffraktionsexperimente wurden an der neuen<br />

Beamline HARWI II (HArter Röntgen WIggler) des GKSS-<strong>Forschung</strong>szentrums am<br />

HASYLAB am DESY durchgeführt. Mit HARWI II steht den Materialwissenschaften<br />

ein Messplatz <strong>mit</strong> Synchrotronstrahlung im Energiebereich von 20 bis 250 keV und<br />

einem hohen Photonenfluss zur Verfügung. Dies ermöglicht es, im Gegensatz zur Neutronenstreuung,<br />

die Probe <strong>mit</strong> einer hohen räumlichen Auflösung zu analysieren. Für<br />

die aktuellen Experimente wurde monochromatische Synchrotronstrahlung <strong>mit</strong> einer<br />

Energie von 83 keV verwendet. Die vorliegenden polykristallinen Proben bestehen aus<br />

der einphasigen Aluminiumlegierung AA6056. Die Größe der Kristallite variiert zwischen<br />

etwa 200 µm im Basismaterial bis hin zu wenigen Mikrometern im Bereich der<br />

Schweißnaht. Die 3,2 mm starken Aluminiumbleche wurden in Transmissionsgeometrie<br />

vermessen. Ein Abstand von 7,6 m zwischen Probe und Detektor gewährleistete eine<br />

sehr hohe Winkelauflösung für die Bestimmung der Lage der Beugungsreflexe. Als Ergebnis<br />

ist ein sehr detaillierter Verlauf der im Material vorliegenden Spannungen zu<br />

erwarten. Es wurden sowohl die longitudinale als auch die transversale Komponente der<br />

Eigenspannung vermessen. Bei einer schrittweisen Reduzierung des Strahlquerschnitts<br />

von 6 x 0,2 mm 2 auf 0,5 x 0,2 mm 2 sinkt die Anzahl bestrahlter Kristallite deutlich. Ein<br />

weiterer Punkt der Untersuchung ist, wie sich dieser Umstand auf die Güte der Messergebnisse<br />

auswirkt. Es zeigt sich, dass eine geringe Kornstatistik eine Modifizierung<br />

der Auswertungsverfahren erfordert.

30 MeV Photons, Neutrons, Ions and Synchrotron Radiation for Reference<br />

Methods and Materials in Analytical Chemistry<br />

It is basic science, which initiates and exploits large size research devices. Nevertheless,<br />

the diffusion of applied research and development into this challenging experimental<br />

field is desirable.<br />

BAM has been using in house instrumental photon activation analysis (IPAA) for<br />

decades aiming at the certification of reference materials (CRMs) such as metals, ceramics,<br />

soils, plastics etc., especially for light elements or halogens. A unique feature<br />

of IPAA is its ability to analyze samples at kg level. This may be necessary for very<br />

inhomogeneous materials e.g. from recycling. Certification is a legal task of the institute.<br />

In the mid-nineties neutron activation (INAA) using the Hahn-Meitner-Reactor as well<br />

as in house ion bombardment broadened the basis of non-destructive chemical analysis<br />

being a valuable counterpart to methods needing chemical separation. Starting in 2002<br />

synchrotron radiation based energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (SR-EDXRS) was<br />

introduced at the BAMline (BESSY) for the first time into the certification scheme of a<br />

national metrological institute. In the meantime the SR-EDXRS evaluation procedure<br />

has become increasingly reliable. Moreover, the mentioned methods are operated in<br />

combination or for mutual supervision of quality.<br />

Thus, large size research devices have become efficient tools for certification in analytical<br />

chemistry and metrology.<br />

For the time to come there are ideas to further develop the spectrum of variants<br />

available: First, wave length dispersive X-ray spectrometry (SR-WDXRS) will replace<br />

the work intensive reconstitution method at high levels of element contents. Second, an<br />

irradiation facility at the neutron autoradiography site of beam tube NL 1a in the HMI<br />

is worthwhile to be installed. This low cost instrument would enable the analysis of<br />

samples at 100g-level with high representativity and would per<strong>mit</strong> new type investigation<br />

in basic chemical metrology. Third, a highly efficient photon detector array with a<br />

sophisticated coincidence-anticoincidence logic would allow prompt gamma activation<br />

analysis (PGNAA) making the whole periodic system of elements accessible. This high<br />

cost device would be worth operating at accelerators, FRM II and BER II for nuclear<br />

spectrometry and instrumental chemical analysis.

Tieftemperatur-Supraleiter aus Nb3Sn werden häufig für Anwendungen eingesetzt, bei<br />

denen Magnetfelder höher als 10 Tesla erreicht werden sollen. Allerdings ist Nb3Sn,<br />

wie auch viele Hochtemperatur-Supraleiter, sehr spröde. Deshalb gestaltet sich die<br />

Herstellung solcher supraleitender Drähte deutlich komplizierter als bei herkömmlichen<br />

Magnetspulen.<br />

Zuerst werden die Subelemente Nb, Cu und Sn eingehüllt in eine Tantaldiffusionsbarriere<br />

und einen Kupfermantel extrudiert. Anschließend wird der Drahtquerschnitt<br />

durch Walzen und Ziehen auf einen Durchmesser kleiner 1 mm reduziert. Aus diesen<br />

Drähten werden die Magnetspulen geformt. Erst die fertigen Spulen werden dann einer<br />

Wärmebehandlung ausgesetzt, wobei sich aus den einzelnen Subelementen schließlich<br />

die supraleitende Phase bildet.<br />

Während dieser termischen Behandlung entstehen aus dem reinen Zinn und dem umgebenden<br />

Kupfer sukzessive verschiedene intermetallische Phasen (z.B. Cu6Sn5 und<br />

Cu3Sn) bevor sich schließlich Zinn und Niob zur supraleitenden Nb3Sn-Phase verbinden.<br />

Abhängig von der Temperatur und der Zeit der Wärmebehandlung entstehen dabei<br />

zwei verschiedene Arten von Poren. Zum einen bilden sich sehr kleine Poren (etwa<br />

1µm 2 Querschnitt) ringförmig um die supraleitenden Filamente, zum anderen entstehen<br />

größere Poren direkt in den Zinn-Diffusionszentren. Diese Poren verringern die<br />

Homogenität der supraleitenden Adern und führen zu lokalen Spannungen. Das erhöht<br />

die Bruchwahrscheinlichkeit der Filamente, was zur Verringerung der kritischen Stromdichte<br />

führen kann.<br />

Die Transformation von Nb und Sn in die supraleitende Phase Nb3Sn und der Entstehungsmechanismus<br />

beider Porenarten wurde <strong>mit</strong>tels Synchrotron-Tomographie (BES-<br />

SY) untersucht. Die Tomographiedaten zeigen dabei deutlich die Porenentstehung und<br />

deren Diffusion aufgrund nicht optimierter Prozessparameter. Um den Phasenentstehungsprozess<br />

der supraleitenden Nb3Sn-Phase in-situ zu analysieren, wurde die Neutronendiffraktion<br />

eingesetzt. Dabei wurden Diffraktogramme der Proben während der gesamten<br />

Wärmebehandlung im Temperofen aufgenommen. Die verschiedenen kristallographischen<br />

Strukturen aller Bestandteile und Phasen zeigen deutlich trennbare Peaks<br />

im Diffraktionsspektrum. Beide Messmethoden ergänzen sich bei der Erforschung der<br />

Bildung supraleitender Nb3Sn-Strukturen und ermöglichen so<strong>mit</strong> die Optimierung der<br />

Prozessparameter.

We investigated the local textural evolution in a superelastic Ni50.7Ti49.3 alloy under<br />

an applied uniaxial stress using high-energy synchrotron x-ray diffraction in transmission<br />

geometry. Texture information is identified from the intensity variations along<br />

Debye-Scherrer rings recorded on area detector diffraction images. The original textures<br />

of the cold rolled B2 austenite and that of the stress-induced B19’ martensite<br />

are quantitatively related to the features of the superelastic plateau in the stress-strain<br />

curve. The {110}A austenite plane normals are aligned in the rolling direction and<br />

{200}A is in the transverse direction. Due to the B2-B19’ lattice correspondence, the<br />

{110}A peak splits into four martensite peaks {020}M , {-111}M , {002}M and {111}M<br />

[1]. The stress-induced martensite is strongly textured due to twin variant selection<br />

in the stress field with {020}M aligned in the loading direction while the {002}M and<br />

{111}M maxima are at 67 o and 75 o from the loading direction. (B19’ unit cell settings:<br />

a = 2.87 ˚A, b = 4.59 ˚A, c = 4.1 ˚A, γ = 96.2 o ). A comparison between the experimental<br />

and recalculated distribution densities for the polycrystalline NiTi shows a reasonable<br />

agreement. In addition, we compare our experimental results with a micromechanical<br />

model which is based on total energy minimization [2] and we find again reasonable<br />

agreement.<br />

X-ray tomography - a method for process and material optimization in<br />

micro powder injection moulding<br />

Powder injection moulding is one of the most promising replication methods for the<br />

mass production of metal and ceramic micro parts. The material for injection moulding<br />

consists of thermoplastic binder components and inorganic filler with approximately<br />

equal volume fractions. Injection moulding of the feedstock leads to a green part that<br />

can be processed to a dense metal or ceramic micro part by debinding and sintering<br />

[1].<br />

High shear rates in the injection moulding process can lead to separation of powder<br />

and binder causing anisotropic shrinkage during post-processing. The knowledge of<br />

introducing density gradients and defects would consequently allow the optimization<br />

of the feedstock, the moulding parameters and the validation of a simulation tool, as<br />

well. To determine the particle density and defect distribution in micro parts synchrotron<br />

radiation tomography in absorption mode was used. For the measurement,<br />

bending bars consisting of dispersed fused silica particles in a polymeric matrix were<br />

used. The experiments show that particle agglomerates and density variations in the<br />

micrometer range can be resolved. Additionally, various defects influencing the mechanical<br />

properties in the sintered state like flashes, disruptions or edge rounding in<br />

submillimeter sized green parts can be detected with this method [2]. The influence<br />

of process parameters on the flow behaviour of feedstock systems in micro dimensions<br />

will be the centre of further research. For better trade between contrast and photon<br />

transmission and resolution, different powder materials with selectable particle sizes or<br />

other tomography modes like phase contrast will be used.<br />

Titanium alloys are widely used for structural application, especially where high specific<br />

stiffness is required at elevated temperature. In the present investigation the friction<br />

welding process between two rods of Ti6Al4V alloy and of γ- TAB with 24.5mm φ and<br />

80mm length are of basic interest. TiAl-based alloys have a high melting temperature,<br />

a good oxidation resistance and good strength at high temperatures. Ti6Al4V is one<br />

of the standard Ti-alloys, relatively cheap but li<strong>mit</strong>ed in high temperature application<br />

up to 600 ◦ C. The microstructure of nominally γ-TAB can be single phase γ-TiAl,<br />

or in slightly leaner compositions, two-phased composition of tetragonal γ-TiAl and<br />

of hexagonal α2-Ti3Al. γ-TAB alloy had been developed at GKSS-Research Center<br />

Geesthacht for application in turbine construction was available for investigations. The<br />

Ti6Al4V alloy which is also two-phased, hexagonal α-Ti and cubic β-Ti, was available<br />

in addition. Among others the phase distribution in the weld and in the heat affected<br />

zone, describing the joining process is of great importance for the quality. High energy<br />

X-rays of 100keV were used to scan over the welding seam in order to investigate the<br />

phase composition. The measurements were carried out at the high energy beam line<br />

BW5 at HASYLAB with local resolution of 1x1mm slits and an overlapping z-scan of<br />

steps in 0.5mm. Two problems occur by this experiment: Firstly, the welded seam is<br />

smaller than 0.5mm and secondly the γ-TAB is rather coarse grained. The used Mar345<br />

image plate detector covers a set of complete Debye-Scherrer ring able to calculate<br />

integrated sum diffraction pattern. The data analyses were carried out on MAUD<br />

(Material Analysis Using Diffraction) program doing phase analyses. Due to the sum<br />

diffraction pattern, the texture influence on quantitative phase analysis was reduced.<br />

In the basic material we have a two-phased system of hexagonal α-Ti (P 63/mmc, about<br />

82wt.%) and of cubic β-Ti (I m3m, about 18 wt.%) for Ti6Al4V and tetragonal γ-TiAl<br />

(P 4/mmm, about 98.2 wt.%) and hexagonal α2-Ti3Al (P 63/mmc, about 1.8 wt.%)<br />

for γ-TAB. Inside the weld a small region of at least three crystallographic phases<br />

were observed. In addition crystallographic textures were measured using neutron<br />

synchrotron diffraction.

Dense and adherent oxide layers protect metallic substrates by barring the diffusion<br />

between the corrosive environment and the reactant and, thus, by decreasing the corrosion<br />

rate. The integrity of protective oxide films is, however, strongly influenced by<br />

strain/stress generation in the oxides at high temperatures as well as at room temperature<br />

after cooling.<br />

The Pilling-Bedworth-Ratio (PBR), which is the ratio between the volume of the<br />

oxide and of the metal necessary for the oxide formation, has been often used to<br />

estimate strains in oxide layers. However, not even a qualitative connection exists<br />

between the PBR and the internal stresses in oxide layers. This is due to other factors<br />

affecting the strain state, such as cation diffusion mechanisms, lattice misfit between<br />

substrate and oxide in epitaxial layers, the formation of new oxides and gradients in<br />

the oxide composition of the layer. After oxidation and cooling the strain/stress state<br />

is also modified by additional stresses formed as a result of differences in the thermal<br />

properties of the oxide layer and metallic substrate. These cooling stresses are usually<br />

related to oxide spalling.<br />

The present work deals with the oxidation behavior of pure iron single and polycrystals.<br />

A systematic in-situ synchrotron diffraction study of the influence of crystal orientation,<br />

layer epitaxy and texture on the phase specific strain/stress state is carried out at<br />

450 ◦ C and 650 ◦ C using the LIBAD-method. Above 570 ◦ C the third iron oxide phase,<br />

wuestite, becomes stable and grows between the substrate and magnetite. The effect<br />

of wuestite and higher oxidation rates at 650 ◦ C on layer morphology, texture and<br />

strain/stress state is also presented. Ex-situ diffraction experiments reveal the residual<br />

stresses in the epitaxial oxide layers after cooling.

Mit der Verfügbarkeit von Hochleistungslasern wird das Laserschweißen auch bei der<br />

Electronic structure of correlated systems from spectroscopic ellipsometry<br />

from FIR to VUV<br />

Optical spectroscopy is a powerful tool to determine the physical properties of solids<br />

over a huge energy range from meV up to keV. Interesting excitations like phonons and<br />

from it the crystal symmetry, electronic transitions, Cooper-pair breaking energies in a<br />

superconductor, intraband transitions in a metal or core-level transitions, e.g., can be<br />

determined. In comparison to reflectivity measurements ellipsometric investigations<br />

have the advantage that they provide the full complex optical function with a high<br />

absolute acurracy without requiring a Kramers-Kronig transformation. In a metal,<br />

the reflectivity in the far-infrared is close to 100 % which makes ellipsometric measurements<br />

mandatory when the absolute values of the optical constants are needed very<br />

exactly. In the following we will describe two of the problems which we have studied<br />

with ellipsometry at two different synchrotrons.<br />

FeSi is a narrow band semiconductor with a gap of approx. 60 meV. It is intensively<br />

discussed whether FeSi is to be described in a correlated or in an itinerant picture as<br />

both experimental and theoretical results are contradictory so far. Another interesting<br />

phenomenon is the fact that the paramagnetic semiconductor FeSi turns into a ferromagnetic<br />

metal when it is doped with a few percent of Co. The gap of Fe1−xCoxSi<br />

as a feature of the electronic system is superposed by phonons as features of the lattice.<br />

So excitingly an electron-phonon coupling was observed in Raman spectra. We<br />

measured the optical conductivity as function of temperature and Co concentration at<br />

the IR-ellipsomter at ANKA in Karlsruhe. We observed four infrared phonons which<br />

remain visible even in the metallic regime. With increasing Co concentration the gap<br />

shifts to lower energies and crosses the phonons energetically. From the transverse and<br />

longitudinal frequencies of the optical phonons the Born and Szigeti effective charge<br />

are calculated.<br />

In order to study the 5f-compounds UN and UPtGe we focus on the UV range. In UN,<br />

the localization degree of the 5f-states is of special interesst. In the traditional model,<br />

the 5f-states are supposed to be relatively itinerant, in a more recent model both itinerant<br />

and localized 5f-states exist. UPtGe is a material with a complicated spin and<br />

crystal structure and anisotropic magnetic and electrical properties. We found UPtGe<br />

to be optically anisotropic from the FIR to the VUV. To make a study on the band<br />

structure of UN and UPtGe, ellipsometric measurements up to 32 eV at BESSY II in<br />

Berlin were made in order to find most of the electronic transitions. For UPtGe only<br />

very few band calculations exist, and so we experimentally determinend the electronic<br />

structure in dependence of the crystal direction.

The ultrasonic surface treatment (UST) is an effective method improving mechanical<br />

properties of metal products and increasing the operation characteristics.<br />

The Invar Fe30.1 %Ni1.18 %C alloy after the UST was studied. The frequency of<br />

ultrasonic vibration of a sample was 1-3 kHz. The phase composition of the alloys was<br />

controlled by X-ray analysis. The transmission Mössbauer spectroscopy and the smallangle<br />

neutron scattering (SANS) were used. The distribution of the hyperfine magnetic<br />

fields was obtained by using the Window method supplemented with procedure of<br />

the determination of the isomer shifts distribution function. The SANS experiments<br />

were performed at the SANS1 instrument at the FRG1 research reactor at GKSS<br />

Research Centre, Geesthacht, Germany. The neutron wavelength was 8.1 ˚A. The range<br />

of scattering vectors (0.005 < q < 0.25 ˚A −1 ) was obtained using four sample-to-detector<br />

distances (0.7 – 9.7 m). The experiments were carried out at room temperature in<br />

applied magnetic field of 2.5 T at a sample perpendicular to the neutron beam, which<br />

was polarized.<br />

From Mössbauer data the UST causes the redistribution of C atoms in the f.c.c. Fe-<br />

Ni-C alloys that results in modification of magnetic order; the UST in the considered<br />

mode does not change the phase composition of the Fe-Ni-C alloys that considerably<br />

differs from the effect of the impact low frequency loading causing the martensitic<br />

transformation.<br />

The SANS experiment did not reveal the effect UST. The SANS curve has shown<br />

two slopes (Fig. 2). The analysis of large q part (q > 0.01 ˚A −1 ) by IFT method gives<br />

Rg = 155 ˚A (the radius of equivalent sphere is 200 ˚A). Dmax = 500 ˚A. The analysis of<br />

lowest q part (q < 0.01 ˚A −1 ) by slope I(q) q ( −α) gives α=4.6 that points existence of<br />

some larger particles with fractal surface of diffuse type.

The group III Nitrides as well as ZnO as wide band gap semiconductors have recently<br />

been subject to an enormous scientific research activity. The main efforts are devoted<br />

to the development of processes capable of producing a material quality that is<br />

adequate for advanced opto-electronic devices in the short wavelength region. However,<br />

due to their large band gap, these materials are not only suitable for blue and<br />

ultraviolet LED´s and laser diodes but also for high temperature and high power semiconductor<br />

devices. For the local doping of such planar devices, ion implantation is<br />

the most commonly used technique. Unfortunately, together with its advantages as a<br />

clean, controllable and reproducible technique, comes its main problem, which is the<br />

lattice damage caused by the ions. In order to achieve proper electrical activation<br />

of implanted dopants this damage has to be eliminated by an appropriate annealing<br />

procedure The PAC technique is excellently suited to provide information about the<br />

lattice vicinity of an implanted impurity. Therefore, in the past years the Rare Earth<br />

PAC probe 172Lu(172Yb) has been employed for the first time in wide band gap semiconductors.<br />

Results on the annealing of the implantation damage, the incorporation<br />

of the implanted ions and the temperature dependence of the observed EFG in AlN,<br />

InN and GaN will be presented and discussed.

During the last decade, mixed-cation double tungstate and molybdate compounds<br />

gained special interest due to their optical properties. Especially scheelite-type compounds<br />

are favored as laser disc hosts due their uniaxial character and tunability. The<br />

average structure of these compounds is isotypical to scheelite (CaWO4) with space<br />

group I41/a (Z=4) and lattice constants of a = 0.5282 and c = 1.1466 nm. Mixedcation<br />

occupation may also occur on the tetrahedrally coordinated W-position (4a) but<br />

the most interesting compounds are synthesised with mixed occupation at the strongly<br />

distorted dodecahedral Ca-positon (4b).<br />

With prominent absorption bands in the range of 940 - 980 nm, Yb 3+ -doped NaGd(WO4)2<br />

offers optimum spectroscopic properties for diode pumping and currrent research concentrates<br />

on Yb 3+ -activated tungstate crystals [1]. A statistical distribution of Na +<br />

and Gd 3+ was assumed earlier but recent X-ray powder investigations claimed evidence<br />

for weak superstructure peaks (doubling of a- and c-axis) pointing to local order at<br />

Wyckoff position 4b [2].<br />

Single-crystal studies were performed at beamline F1 (Hasylab/DESY) using a Marresearch<br />

CCD-detector and a wavelength of 0.050 nm to reduce absorption. Bragg<br />

data collections were done with small distances (65 mm) and scan widths of 1 ◦ per<br />

frame whereas diffuse scattering studies were performed with thin-slicing (0.2 ◦ ) and a<br />

distance of 150 mm. The latter data were rescaled for the primary beam decay and<br />

corrected for background and sample-external scattering (beamstop). Very weak intensities<br />

for 00l-reflections with l=2n and hk0 with h,k=2n+1 give evidence for an at<br />

least local symmetry I-4 instead of I41/a favored by incorporation of relatively small<br />

Yb 3+ -ions which may lead to higher local ordering. Furthermore, reciprocal space<br />

reconstructions show weak diffuse intensities pointing out an incommensurate modulation<br />

with a vector parallel * and a modulation wavelength of ca. 0.95a. No<br />

evidence was found for a modulation along c, in contrast to [2].<br />

The combination of tomography and diffraction experiments gives the unique opportunity<br />

to follow the development in the microstructure of materials and the subsequent<br />

changes in their texture and/or internal stress state due to external loading.<br />

Combined tomography and diffraction carried out continuously in-situ and during only<br />

one experiment significantly increases the understanding of microstructure changes during<br />

creep, where it is important to characterise the dynamics of void growth during all<br />

stages of the degradation process. We performed combined diffraction/ tomography<br />

experiments using white high energy synchrotron radiation, which aimed at determining<br />

in-situ the creep damage evolution and its correlation to texture development of<br />

CuZn-alloys.<br />

The results of the experiments reveal the development of creep voids and damage<br />

in CuZn-alloys with increasing creep time. The experiments also show an influence<br />

of loading conditions (temperature, stress) on void size, morphology, void orientation<br />

to the load axis and void growth mechanisms. We attempt to link creep damage,<br />

microstructure and microstrain development during the creep process.

The certification of reference materials (CRMs) is the core task of the department Analytical<br />

Chemistry; Reference Materials of the Federal Institute for Materials Research<br />

and Testing (BAM). They are used for quality assurance in chemical analytical laboratories.<br />

Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS), instrumental neutron activation<br />

analysis (INAA), inductively coupled plasma isotope dilution mass spectrometry<br />

(ICP-IDMS) and X-ray fluorescence based on synchrotron radiation (SyXRF) have<br />

already successfully contributed to the BAM programme of certifying reference materials.<br />

With the thin film reference material Molybdenum implanted in Silicon for the<br />

first time the combination of these techniques, which are all available at the Division<br />

I.4 Nuclear Analysis , has been used to certify a reference material completely in-house.<br />

RBS was performed at the 2 MV tandem ion accelerator of BAM, INAA at the irradiation<br />

facilities (BER II reactor) of the Hahn-Meitner Institute in Berlin for neutron<br />

activation analysis. SyXRF was carried out at the Beamline of the BAM at the Berlin<br />

Synchrotron BESSY.<br />

While RBS, INAA and ICP-IDMS are accepted methods for certification, the use<br />

of SyXRF is quite new. To meet the requirements for the certification of reference<br />

materials, a new quantification method, based on Monte Carlo Simulations and pure<br />

element samples, has been established. This method is characterized by the minimization<br />

of the influence of the uncertainty of fundamental and geometric parameters and<br />

the elimination of the influence of the detector response. Drawbacks are the need to<br />

measure additional spectra and the required computing time if an iteration scheme<br />

must be applied.<br />

The measured values for the areal density of Mo are given here:<br />

ID-ICPMS 3.43 (±0.04)E + 16atoms/cm 2<br />

INAA 3.38 (±0.05)E + 16atoms/cm 2<br />

RBS 3.56 (±0.03)E + 16atoms/cm 2<br />

SyXRF 3.47 (±0.03)E + 16atoms/cm 2<br />

(2 chips, 2 measurements each)<br />

(2 chips)<br />

(4 chips , 2 measurements each)<br />

Additionally the property of SyXRF to measure non-destructive and fast, opened the<br />

possibility to analyse all available chips, to determine homogeneity. As a result of this<br />

measurements a number of chips with aberrant values have been excluded from further<br />

use. The work on the certification report is in progress.

Nickel base single crystal superalloys are widely used as structure materials in land base<br />

gas turbines as well as in air-craft turbines. Their excellent creep and fatigue properties<br />

at high temperatures are due to the special microstructure of the material consisting<br />

of cuboidal Gamma-prime-precipitates with L12 lattice structure which are coherently<br />

embedded in the Gamma fcc solid solution phase. The Gamma-Prime precipitates<br />

serve as obstacles for the dislocations produced during deformation. The stability of<br />

microstructure under creep-deformation is therefore important for the understanding<br />

of mechanical properties at high temperatures. We therefore studied the changes in<br />

microstructure in model single crystal superalloy SC16 during exposure at high, constant<br />

temperature after thermomechanical load at 1223 K to 15 % tensile creep strain<br />

in [001] direction under tensile load of 150 MPa.<br />

X-ray measurements have been performed using the 6-circle diffractometer at the<br />

KMC-2 beamline at BESSY using an X-ray energy of 8 kV. Measurements have been<br />

performed in the [100] direction, i.e., perpendicular to the axis of pre-strain. Structural<br />

relaxation of gamma prime crystal lattice at 1173K has been determined by measuring<br />

the position and linewidth of the 100 superlattice reflection. The lattice misfit between<br />

gamma and gamma prime phase has been determined by measurement of the 200<br />

intensity profiles.<br />

Considerable changes in width and position of 100 superlattice reflection and in<br />

Gamma/Gamma-Prime lattice misfit were found. The results will be compared with<br />

measurements on the same material (15 % strain) measured in [001] direction, i.e.,<br />

along the axis of creep-deformation [1].<br />

The results are discussed in the frame of a dislocation model: Plastic deformation<br />

creates dislocations which arrange differently at differently oriented interfaces [2]. The<br />

stress induced by these dislocations partly relaxes during thermal treatment by rearrangement<br />

of dislocations.<br />

Die Beziehungen zwischen der Mikrostruktur und der kristallografischen Vorzugsorientierung<br />

(Textur) von gebänderten Hämatiterzen in Brasilien wurden in vielen Veröffentlichungen<br />

behandelt, z.B. [1,2]. Die elliptischen c-Achsen-Maxima liegen um den<br />

Pol der Foliation. Die Pole der Prismenflächen liegen auf Großkreisen und die Maxima<br />

auf diesen fallen <strong>mit</strong> der Lineation zusammen. Auf Grund von Stauchversuchen<br />

[3] und der bekannten Gleitsysteme [4] kann aber nur Scherverformung <strong>mit</strong> basalem<br />

Gleiten diese Textur hervorbringen. Bis jetzt wurden 6 Hämatitproben (Durchmesser<br />

14 mm, Länge 10 mm) <strong>mit</strong> einer 0,5 mm dicken Ag–Pd–Schutzhülle versehen, um die<br />

Bildung von Magnetit zu minimieren, und in ein Jacket aus Eisen oder aus Kupfer<br />

eingebracht, das die Probe vom Druckmedium Argongas trennt. Bei Temperaturen<br />

von 1000 ◦ C bis 800 ◦ C wurde in einer Torsionsapparatur [5] bei 400 MPa allseitigem<br />

Druck <strong>mit</strong> Torsionsraten von 6, 5 × 10 −5 /s und 2, 5 × 10 −5 /s in 30– und 70–Stunden<br />

Versuchen eine Scherverformung γmax = 4, 4 erreicht. Der Hämatit ist bei allen Temperaturen<br />

zu einem gleichförmigen polygonalen Korngefüge rekristallisiert, das sich<br />

auch bei natürlich verformten Erzen findet. Die Korngrößen, die <strong>mit</strong> steigender Temperatur<br />

zunehmen, weisen dabei keine Unterschiede über die Probenquerschnitte auf,<br />

obwohl die finite Scherverformung von Null im Zentrum der Probe bis zum maximalen<br />

Wert an der Peripherie variiert. Neutronentexturmessungen [6] im Probenbereich <strong>mit</strong><br />

der stärksten Verformung und EBSD-Messungen [7] ergaben für die Polfigur des 0003-<br />

Reflexes ein zentrales, elliptisches Maximum nahe dem Pol der Scherebene. Die Höhe<br />

des 0003-Maximums nimmt dabei von 8,1 bis 11,2 <strong>mit</strong> steigender Temperatur zu. Der<br />

Texturindex bei der 1000 ◦ C-Probe steigt im Probenquerschnitt von 1,1 im Zentrum<br />

auf 3,8 an der Peripherie. Auf dem peripheren Gürtel der 11¯20-Polfigur befindet sich<br />

ein Maximum, das die Orientierung der Scherrichtung angibt. Die 10¯14-Polfigur, die<br />

zwei bananenförmige Maxima [8] unterschiedlicher Dichte und Ausdehnung aufweist,<br />

läßt auf den Schersinn schließen. Diese Polfiguren stimmen weitgehend <strong>mit</strong> Polfiguren<br />

natürlich verformter Hämatiterze überein.<br />

Due to their low density, high mechanical strength and creep resistance at elevated<br />

temperatures titanium aluminides are considered as promising structural materials<br />

for high temperature applications in the aerospace and automotive sectors. The 3rd<br />

Generation of TiAl alloys (so called TNB alloys) are characterized by a high Nb-content.<br />

In particular, these high Nb containing alloys with the baseline composition Ti-(42-<br />

45)Al-(5-10)Nb+X (at%) have attracted attention due to their combination of high<br />

creep strength, good ductility at room temperature and excellent oxidation resistance.<br />

The ternary Ti-Al-Nb system is known to enable the formation of a variety of mixed<br />

oxide scales depending on the chemical alloy composition and oxidation temperature.<br />

However, the phase composition is a decisive criterion for the shielding efficiency of<br />

these oxide layers, since a dense single protective Al2O3 layer may deteriorate to a<br />

porous, less protective mixed oxide scale. Therefore, the knowledge about the mechanisms<br />

of oxide formation in these new alloys is essential for the determination of<br />

conditions necessary for the development of dense oxide layers with both mechanical<br />

integrity and diffusion barrier properties.<br />

The aim of this study is a characterization of oxide layers formed on γ-TiAl alloys with<br />

high Nb-contents after oxidation at 800 ◦ C. The microstructure of the oxide layers, the<br />

interface between the substrate and oxide layer as well as layer integrity are studied by<br />

synchrotron x-rays and electron microscopy. The results reveal the spatial arrangement<br />

of the different oxides within the nanostructured oxide layer. The oxide scales are<br />

quantitatively analyzed by Rietveld refinements. The phase specific residual stress<br />

state is evaluated using synchrotron X-ray diffraction at low incidence angles.

Originally, X-ray texture goniometry and electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD)<br />

were used to measure pole figures of deformed quartz vein from Torridon area of NW<br />

Scotland and the Cambrian quartz mylonite; Stack of Glencoul, Assynt area of Moine<br />

thrust zone, NW Scotland. The X-ray results of Torridon sample showed that individual<br />

positions on the c-axis fabric skeleton are related by a common direction<br />

which is coincidence with this dominant a-axis point maximum. Thus, the crystallographic<br />

fabrics strongly support the bulk simple shear kinematic framework indicated<br />

by shear zone geometry. The crystal lattice preferred orientation results of Stack of<br />

Glencoul sample obtained from the EBSD are consistent with co-axial strain paths.<br />

The EBSD derived LPO was then used to predict elastic parameters for Cambrian<br />

quartz mylonite, from which 3 D seismic properties were derived. In the present study,<br />

we use the STRESS-SPEC material-science neutron diffractometer at FRM-II to measure<br />

simultaneously pole-figures of (110), (021), (111), (021), (112), (211) and (113) of<br />

the same Torridon and Stack of Glencoul samples. We will describe the bulk texture<br />

obtained from neutron diffraction, which is a very useful tool to study the bulk texture<br />

of large sample volume non-destructively because neutrons have small absorption<br />

coefficients for most materials.

Friction Stir Welding is a solid state joining process, in which a cylindrical<br />

shouldered tool with a profiled pin is inserted into the joint line<br />

between two pieces of material. Frictional heat is created between the<br />

wear resistant pin and two work pieces, which are butted together<br />

and clamped onto a backing bar. The heat causes the materials to<br />

soften, without reaching melting point, and allows the rotating pin<br />

to traverse along the joint.<br />

In the study here presented the following friction stir weldings were<br />

investigated: Al reinforced by SiC (similar joints) and Al-SiC welded<br />

with Al (dissimilar joints). These materials are difficult to weld because<br />

of the irregular distribution of silicon carbide particles in the<br />

weld. These heterogeneity may also cause complicated residual stress<br />

distributions in cross-sections of the weld, so the study aims at the<br />

determination of the particle distributions and stress fields in these<br />

weldings.<br />

In addition to conventional synchrotron x-ray diffraction measurements using point<br />

collimators, measurements with the capillary detector set up were performed at the<br />

diffractometer G3, HASYLAB [1]. Here with an area of 5mm x14mm can be investigated<br />

at one time with resolution of 13µm. As result a 2D image (Fig.1) with the<br />

near-surface stress distribution is obtained.<br />

Simultaneously the 2D-image shows the particle distribution. The differences in the<br />

particle distribution in dissimilar weldings with MMC on advancing and retreating side<br />

are presented and explained. Maximum tensile stresses of 220 MPa are formed in the<br />

weld zone.<br />

Aluminiumlegierungen werden für Leichtbaustrukturen in der Transportindustrie verwendet.<br />

Laserstrahl-Schweißen ist eine Verbindungstechnik, die besonders für Aluminium<br />

geeignet ist, da der geringe lokale Wärmeeintrag zu geringem Verzug führt.<br />

Darüber hinaus können hochfeste Verbindungen <strong>mit</strong> großen Prozeßgeschwindigkeiten<br />

hergestellt werden. Dennoch können in der Schweißzone lasergeschweißter Al-Bleche<br />

signifikante Eigenspannungen vorhanden sein. Ihre Größe kann von der Legierungszusammensetzung<br />

und dem Legierungszustand abhängen, sowie von den Schweißparametern,<br />

der Blechdicke oder der Einspannung während des Schweißens. Eigenspannungen<br />

können einen schädlichen Einfluß auf das Einsatzverhalten von Schweißverbindungen<br />

im Hinblick auf Ermüdung und Korrosionseigenschaften haben. Daher werden<br />

häufig Spannungsarm-Glühungen durchgeführt um die schweißbedingten Eigenspannungen<br />

zu reduzieren. In dieser Arbeit werden der Einfluß des Materialzustandes (T4,<br />

T6) und die Effektivität verschiedener Wärmebehandlungen zur Spannungsreduzierung<br />

(T6, T78) in 3.2 mm dicken AA6056 Al-Blechen <strong>mit</strong>tels Neutronenbeugung und<br />

Beugung hochenergetischer Röntgenstrahlung untersucht. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, daß<br />

Zugeigenspannungen in Längsrichtung im geschweißten T6-Material wesentlich größer<br />

sind (180 MPa) als im geschweißten T4-Material (100 MPa). Die Wärmebehandlungen<br />

T6 und T78 zur Spannungsreduzierung für das geschweißte T4-Material führen nicht<br />

zu einem nennenswerten Spannungsabbau.

Silicon clathrates are inclusion compounds with Silicon cagelike strutures in which guest<br />

atoms, e.g. Sodium, Potassium and Barium, can be enclathrated.Ba8Si46 attracted a<br />

lot of interest in the recent years because it was found to be a superconductor with<br />

a transition temperature of 8.0 K [1]. This compound shows a strong charge transfer<br />

from Ba to the Si cages which is especially reflected in the empty d- and f-bands.<br />

The unoccupied partial density of states and thus the corresponding charge transfer of<br />

Ba8Si46 can be studied utilizing non-resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (NRIXS). By<br />

making use of the momentum transfer dependence of the scattering cross section of the<br />

Ba NIV,V and NIII edges of the clathrate compound excitations to the empty states with<br />

different symmetries can be studied. For low momentum transfer q dipole transitions<br />

dominate the spectra whereas at higher momentum transfers multipole transitions can<br />

be observed. Therefore, by changing the magnitude of the momentum transfer different<br />

excitation channels can be probed.<br />

The Ba NIV,V and NIII absorption edges of Ba8Si46 were measured within (low q)<br />

and far beyond (high q) the dipole li<strong>mit</strong>. These measurements were carried out at<br />

the inelastic x-ray scattering beamline ID16 of the European Synchrotron Radiation<br />

Facility. The NRIXS spectra for low q show a well pronounced feature between 100<br />

eV and 140 eV which can be related to a giant resonance (transitions from 4d to<br />

unoccupied f states) which is a well known phenomenon e.g. for atomic Ba [2]. At<br />

higher momentum transfer a strong structure appears between 90 (180) eV and 100<br />

(190) eV for the Ba NIV,V (NIII) edges. This structure can be assigned to the increasing<br />

contribution of non-dipole transitions to empty d and s (p and f) states in case of the<br />

NIV,V (NIII) spectra. These structures will be discussed with respect to the strong<br />

hybridization of Ba guests and Si host lattice.<br />

Moreover, the feasibility of NRIXS experiments at high pressure using a diamond anvil<br />

cell along with a Be gasket to study the Ba NIV,V (NIII) edges beyond the dipole li<strong>mit</strong><br />

will be emphasized. Such experiments give rise to the study of charge transfer because<br />

in clathrate structures like Ba8Si46 the charge transfer from the intercalated atom to<br />

the surrounding Si atoms and therewith the degree of ionization depends strongly on<br />

the cage size.<br />

Perovskite-type oxides have interesting catalytic properties e.g. for the total oxidation<br />

of hydrocarbons [1]. These catalytic properties can be improved, by replacing parts<br />

of the manganese by noble metals like palladium. In the past few years LaFeO3 perovskites<br />

doped with palladium were found to be a good alternative to Al2O3-supported<br />

Pt catalysts for automotive exhaust applications [2].<br />

A furnace working in capillary geometry designated for diffraction experiments under<br />

controlled atmosphere was used to examine the formation of the Perovskite from<br />

the precursor, which was prepared by the Pechini method. The calcined perovskite<br />

was later once treated with oxygen and afterwards with hydrogen. Hereby a phase<br />

transformation is observed, which is also stable under oxygen atmosphere. Samples<br />

with different palladium content were investigated The aim of this experiment was to<br />

determine the structural changes during the catalyst preparation and catalysis.<br />

Anomalous concentration profiles have been observed upon diffusion of Ag in CdTe<br />

[1]. The diffusion experiments were performed with the radiotracers 111 Ag implanted<br />

at ISOLDE into one side of a typically 800 µm thick CdTe crystal at a depth of about<br />

30 nm. The resulting diffusion profiles of Ag extending over the whole crystal critically<br />

depend on the respective external conditions during diffusion and on the sample<br />

pre-treatments (see figure): After diffusing the Ag dopant into the CdTe crystal at 800<br />

K (60 min) under Cd pressure or vacuum the symmetrical concentration profiles show<br />

depletion layers of 100 or 300 µm below the surfaces of the crystal, whereby the depletion<br />

layers are much stronger pronounced in case of diffusion under Cd pressure. In<br />

contrast, the Ag concentration is increased at the surface and decreased in the interior<br />

of the crystal if the diffusion is performed under Te pressure. These anomalous Ag profiles<br />

are well described within a model based on an interaction of the Ag dopant atoms<br />

with the intrinsic defects of the Cd sublattice of CdTe taking into account the charge<br />

states of all participating defects. It turns out that the diffusion of Ag is significantly<br />

affected by an internal drift due to the electric field generated by the distribution of the<br />

charged defects. In addition, the influence of Cu, Au, and In on the diffusion of Ag<br />

in CdTe was investigated. Thus, evaporating a thin Cu layer on the 111 Ag implanted<br />

side of a CdTe single crystal and subsequent annealing at 550 K for 30 min effects that<br />

most of the Ag atoms were detected in a thin layer of only a few µm at the back of a<br />

500 µm thick crystal.<br />

Irradiation damages caused by fission fragments in nuclear fuels can be simulated by<br />

bombardment with heavy ions. At conditions close to in-pile irradiation (comparable<br />

temperature and fission fragment density), it leads to a diffusion process in U-Mo/Al<br />

dispersion fuels between the spherical U-Mo grains and the surrounding Al-matrix like<br />

it takes places during in-pile irradiation [1]. The usage of high-density U-Mo/Al dispersion<br />

fuel for high burn up in research and test reactors seems to be li<strong>mit</strong>ed by this<br />

unfavourable interdiffusion layer (IDL) [2,3]. Therefore it is of main interest to examine<br />

the formation of different phases in this IDL by micro focus diffraction at intense<br />

synchrotron sources. Detailed X-ray analysis of U1−xMox (x=0.06, 0.1) fuel dissolved<br />

in an Al-Matrix will be presented.<br />

Assessment of residual stresses in cracked Fracture Mechanics CT specimens.<br />

A major challenge facing life assessment of components operating at high temperatures<br />

is to understand how residual stresses and prior straining contribute to creep damage<br />

and crack growth failure. The efficiency of conventional steam and gas turbine power<br />

plants can be significantly improved by increasing the operating temperature, leading<br />

to reduced fuel consumption and lower levels of harmful emissions. With this trend<br />

towards higher operating temperatures and the competing need to extend the life<br />

of existing power plants, more accurate and reliable measurements and modelling of<br />

residual stresses are needed to improve predictions of component lifetimes.<br />

Failures in components are most likely to occur at or near weldments by fast fracture,<br />

creep or fatigue cracking. These regions can exhibit microstructural inhomogeneity as<br />

well as the presence of micro-cracks and residual stresses. Cracking normally occurs in<br />

the heat affected zone (HAZ) of these welds and cracks can grow significantly under<br />

service loads. Pilot creep crack growth tests on a type 316H stainless steel weldment<br />

have recently been carried out using compact tension (CT) specimen designs with<br />

specimens machined directly from a non-stress relieved weldment. The pilot creep<br />

crack growth tests showed anomalously short lives, with the crack path sometimes<br />

unexpectedly deviating away from the weld HAZ line at the centre of the specimen.<br />

It is believed that this anomalous behaviour can be related to the presence of residual<br />

stresses resulting from the welding process, which may significantly influence the creep<br />

crack growth rate behaviour in the CT specimen.<br />

In this paper a comparison of the residual strain and stresses and their subsequent<br />

re-distribution in Compact Tension specimens are presented. Results of Neutron Measurements<br />

from a number of EU neutron sources such as HMI, TUM/FRM II, ILL<br />

and ISIS were made following a Round Robin exercise in the collaborative VAMAS<br />

TWA 31 Creep/Fatigue Crack Growth of Welded Components programme. The data<br />

will contribute to quantifying the repeatability of measurements from different sources<br />

as well as identifying the role of residual stress in weldments and understanding their<br />

effects on creep and creep-fatigue crack growth behaviour in components. It is hoped<br />

that the final results and analyses will lead to recommendations for a code of practice<br />

for measuring crack growth in welded specimens.

Synthesis, Crystal Structures, Metal Atom Distribution and Magnetic Properties<br />

of the monoclinic Compounds Cr5−xTixSe8 (x ≈ 2, 3, 4)<br />

The non-stoichiometric chromium titanium selenides Cr5−xTixSe8 (x ≈ 2, 3, 4) were<br />

prepared applying high-temperature solid-state reactions. The crystal structures have<br />

been refined with X-ray and neutron powder diffraction data with the Rietveld method.<br />

The samples crystallize in the non-conventional monoclinic space group F 2/m with<br />

four formula units per unit cell. The structures of all phases are related to the NiAstype<br />

structure with ordered metal vacancies in every second metal atom layer. The<br />

cation distributions on four inequivalent crystallographic sites were determined. The<br />

results showed a considerable disorder but they nevertheless revealed the site preference<br />

of Ti atoms for the 8h and 8i sites for the three investigated compounds. Based on<br />

the results these compounds are formulated as (Cr2.21Ti1.79)[Cr0.91Ti0.03∆3.06]Se8<br />

for Cr3.11Ti1.82Se8, (Cr1.36Ti2.64)[Cr0.73Ti0.19∆3.08]Se8<br />

for Cr2.09Ti2.83Se8, and (Cr0.22Ti3.78)[Cr0.63Ti0.4∆2.89]Se8<br />

for Cr0.85Ti4.26Se8 (note: () denotes atoms in the fully occupied layers, [] atoms in the<br />

partially layers and ∆ denotes the vacancies). The MSe6 octahedra share edges within<br />

layers and faces between layers. Consequently, long M-M separations occur within the<br />

layers and remarkably short M-M contacts result between M atoms in octahedra sharing<br />

faces. The irreversibility in the field-cooled/zero-field-cooled magnetization at 10<br />

kOe depends strongly on the Ti concentration x. In all cases, χ(T) obeys the Curie-<br />

Weiss law in the high-temperature range. The effective magnetic moments are 4.03,<br />

3.91 and 3.90 µB per Cr atom for Cr3Ti2Se8, Cr2Ti3Se8 and CrTi4Se8, respectively,<br />

slightly larger than the expected value 3.87 µB for spin-only Cr 3+ . This is somewhat<br />

unusual for Cr 3+ , but was frequently observed for chromium chalcogenides [1, 2].<br />

γ-TiAl-alloys are of increasing interest in gas turbine and automotive industries because<br />

of their good mechanical properties and of their about 50 % lower specific weight<br />

compared to the presently used Ni-based superalloys. However, due to the poor hightemperature<br />

oxidation resistance of TiAl above 750 ◦ C, the lifetime of components is<br />

li<strong>mit</strong>ed. Indeed, under such conditions, a non protective mixture of TiO2 and Al2O3<br />

forms during oxidation. The formation of such a protective scale can be stimulated<br />

by the addition of small amounts of halogens, especially of fluorine. In this study the<br />

fluorine is applied in two ways: treatment with diluted HF and ion implantation. As<br />

first method the samples were treated with different aqueous HF solutions between 0.01<br />

and 1.1 m.-% HF. The HF was applied as a drop which covers one side of the samples.<br />

After drying the specimens were oxidized at 10h/900 ◦ C/air. After treatment with 0.06<br />

and 0.11 m.-% HF a dense and 0.8 µm thick protective alumina scale was formed at<br />

the surface. Non destructive Ion Beam Analysis was applied to determine the fluorine<br />

profile within the first 1.3 µm (PIGE) and to measure the elemental profiles of the<br />

main elements Ti, Al and O in the oxide layer down to the sub-surface region (RBS).<br />

From this it was revealed, that the F-maximum is located at the metal/oxide interface.<br />

The fluorine effect is connected with fluorine amounts of about 20 - 22 w.-% at the<br />

surface before oxidation. After the oxidation a maximum of the fluorine concentration<br />

was found within the metal/oxide interface region with values up to 1.1 w.-%. As a<br />

second method fluorine ion implantation was chosen. At 20 keV implantation energy<br />

(projected range of 34 nm) fluences between 10 15 and 5x10 17 F-ions cm −2 were implanted.<br />

After isothermal oxidation (12 h/900 ◦ C/air) a thin alumina scale was formed<br />

for fluences of 5x10 16 and 10 17 F-ions cm −2 . At longer oxidation times a fluence of 10 17<br />

gave the best results. The measured profiles of F, Ti, Al and O are similar to those<br />

obtained after HF treatment. The results proof the proposed mechanism of the fluorine<br />

effect. After finding the optimal parameters for both kinds of fluorine application<br />

the long time stability was studied until 1000h/900 ◦ C/air. In both cases a protective<br />

alumina scale was established. Further investigations concerned with the fluorine loss<br />

during heating. The technical exploitation of the fluorine effect is pointed out.

Ultracold Neutrons (UCN), i.e. neutrons with kinetic energies of less than 300 neV<br />

(corresponding to velocities of less than 7 m/s) can be created by down-scattering<br />

of cold neutrons in a solid-deuterium moderator. They may be stored in material<br />

or magnetic bottles and studied for times approaching the eta-decay lifetime of the<br />

neutron aun. From measurements of aun and eta-decay decay correlation coefficients,<br />

one may extract parameters that completely characterize the weak force and can search<br />

for deviations from the Standard Model and the unitarity of the quark mixing matrix.<br />

Measurement of the lifetime aun also provides information on the abundances of the<br />

light elements produced during the Big Bang.<br />

A general description of the experimental set-up for the miniD2 UCN source and<br />

the planned lifetime experiment PENELOPE, both for the FRM2 research reactor at<br />

Garching near Munich will be presented.

The experimental data concerning scission (or pre-scission) neutrons are very contradictory<br />

- the relative part of these neutrons in the prompt fission neutrons varies from<br />

1 % to 35 % due to arbitrary assumptions made in different analysis. To solve this<br />

problem we have used new alternative method to search for the scission neutrons. We<br />

have found the left-right asymmetry of prompt-fission-neutron (PFN) emission caused<br />

by sp-wave interference in entrance channel of the reaction and the P -odd asymmetry<br />

of the PFN emission caused by parity nonconservation at exit channel of the fission<br />

process. Both effects cannot reside in PFN evaporated by excited fission fragments.<br />

The scission (or pre-scission) neutrons are responsible for these effects.

The report is dedicated to the investigation of the neutron radiative decay. The theoretical<br />

spectrum of radiative gamma quanta, calculated within the framework of the<br />

standard electroweak interaction model, is discussed. On the basis of a comparison<br />

drawn between neutron and muon decays, it is demonstrated that the study of radiative<br />

branches of elementary particle decay occupies a central place in the fundamental<br />

problem of searching for deviations from the standard electroweak model. Particular<br />

attention is paid to analyzing the results of the experiments conducted at ILL in 2002<br />

[1] and at the second and third cycles at the FRMII reactor of the Technical University<br />

of Munchen [2] in 2005.<br />

Untersuchungen zum Nachweis von superschweren Elementen (SHE) <strong>mit</strong><br />

hochenergetischer Synchrotron-Strahlung und Röntgenfluoreszenz.<br />

Berechnungen der Bindungsenergien für die K-Elektronen der SHE und die dazu gehörenden<br />

charakteristischen Röntgenlinien sind schon vor langer Zeit durchgeführt worden.<br />

[1]. Danach können <strong>mit</strong> monochromatisierter Synchrotron-Strahlung im Energiebereich<br />

130 keV bis über 210 keV durch Anregung ihrer Fluoreszenz superschwere Elemente im<br />

Prinzip nachgewiesen werden.<br />

Z. B. hat die theoretisch vorausgesagte ” stabile Insel“ bei der Ordnungszahl Z=114<br />

(A=298) für die K-Elektronen die Bindungsenergie 200,21 keV. Für die charakteristischen<br />

Linien und die relativen Intensitäten ergibt die Rechnung:K α2=160,01 keV;≈<br />

70 %; K α1=171,84 keV; 100 %; K β3=189,54 keV; ≈12 %; K β1=192,43 keV; ≈<br />

25 %; K β2=197,22 keV; ≈ 3 %; K β2=198,04 keV; ≈ 8 %. Der Nachweis eines SHE<br />

ist wahrscheinlich, wenn zwei oder mehr ungestörte Linien <strong>mit</strong> passender Energie gefunden<br />

werden.<br />

Die Messungen wurden im Jahre 2004 durchgeführt an der Beamline ID 15A des ES-<br />

RF in Grenoble. Es wurden 20 sog. akzessorische Minerale bestrahlt. Die Auswahl<br />

war angeregt worden durch Befunde extremer Ungleichgewichte der Aktivitäten in den<br />

natürlichen Zerfallsreihen von U-238, U-235 und Th-232, welche bisher nicht erklärt<br />

werden konnten [2]. Jede Probe wurde <strong>mit</strong> den Primärenergien 185,6 keV, 205,6 keV<br />

und 227,2 keV bestrahlt, wo<strong>mit</strong> jeweils die Elemente bis Z=110, Z=115 und Z=119<br />

nachgewiesen werden können.<br />

Eine große Schwierigkeit sind die Störungen durch Summenpeaks (pile-ups) der Elemente<br />

in den Proben, die in den Energiebereich der SHE-Linien fallen. Sämtliche Kombinationen<br />

von deren Linien müssen bei der Auswertung berücksichtigt werden, geordnet<br />

nach der relativen Intensität der Summenpeaks. Zur Unterdrückung der niederenergetischen<br />

Fluoreszenzlinien der leichteren Elemente (z. B. Y, Nb, SEE) und da<strong>mit</strong><br />

auch deren Summenpeaks <strong>mit</strong> den schweren Elementen (U, Th, Ta, Pb u.a.) waren<br />

vor den Detektoren Filter aus verschiedenen Metallen (ca.100µ bis 400µ) angebracht.<br />

Eine Unsicherheit besteht darin, daß ein gefundener Peak mehreren superschweren<br />

Elementen zugeordnet werden kann. In den natürlichen Mineralen sind nur geringste<br />

Spuren von SHE zu erwarten. Deswegen dauerten die Bestrahlungen mehrere Stunden<br />

trotz der hohen Intensität de Primärstrahls (bis ca.10 11 Photonen/s auf 1,0x0,5 mm).<br />

In zwei der Proben fanden sich Hinweise auf SHE, abhängig von den Meßparametern<br />

Anfangsenergie, Filter und Meßzeit: <strong>mit</strong> der Anfangsenergie 186,5 keV gab es Hinweise<br />

auf Z=110, 104. 101 und <strong>mit</strong> der Anfangsenergie 205,6 keV auf Z=114, 113,103,101,99.<br />
