Abstract:
X-ray microscopy has become a commonly available and often used tool for element specific investigations on a nanometer scale. However, with a constantly growing user community the demand for a more flexible sample environment grows as well. In my talk I will describe several approaches that were realized at the SSRL and the ALS to push the limits of x-ray microscopy, e.g. how to improve the resolution of PEEM microscopy without any changes to the microscope, how to measure in large magnetic fields with sub 10ps time resolution or how to follow chemical reactions in situ.
