17-12-2009
Many of the rooftops of new apartment blocks in Europe these days are covered by solar panels that aim at picking up the rays of the sun and converting them into energy. New guidelines point this as a cheap way of producing clean energy. Despite the … (17-12-2009) |
Spotlight on scienceX-ray beam transverse coherence analysis using near-field scattering
26-01-2010
A new method to map the two-dimensional transverse coherence function of an undulator X-ray beam is proposed. It is based on near-field speckles generated by the interference between perfectly spherical scattered waves from a colloidal suspension and … (26-01-2010) A different kind of memory in Ge-Sb-Te memory alloys
13-01-2010
Phase-change materials such as Ge-Sb-Te (GST) memory alloys are used in rewritable optical memory devices such as CDs and DVDs. In such applications, changes due to temperature are used to store data. But these materials also undergo structural trans … (13-01-2010) Electronic structure of ligand orbitals revealed by valence-to-core X-ray emission
22-12-2009
The electron orbitals of ligands in 3d transition metal complexes can be studied by means of X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES). A comprehensive experimental and theoretical study of the X-ray emission from the valence band of Mn coordination compl … (22-12-2009) |
