"Inelastic X-ray Scattering by Electronic Excitations: The Taiwan Beamline Perspective"

Presented by Yong Cai, National Synchrotron Radiation Research Center, Taiwan

Wednesday, April 11, 2007, 11:00 am — NSLS-II Seminar Room, Bldg. 817

Inelastic X-ray Scattering (IXS) coupled with tuneable, highly intense and bright hard X-rays from 3rd generation synchrotron sources provides a powerful probe of lattice and charge dynamics with energy and momentum-resolved information, and offers in particular unique strengths in the study of low-energy charge excitations of correlated electron systems and the electronic properties of materials under extreme thermal dynamical conditions such as high pressure and extreme temperature. In this presentation, the technique as implemented at the Taiwan Contract Beamline BL12XU at SPring-8 for both resonant and non-resonant experiments on electronic excitations will be discussed with examples drawn from experiments performed on the beamline. Some perspectives for further developments and the scientific programs, particularly in connection with the planned Taiwan Photon Source, will also be discussed
