Times Cited Count:3 Percentile:75.92Linear polarization measurements were carried out using a newly developed soft X-ray polarimeter and ellipsometer (SXPE) for complete polarization analysis at a soft X-ray beamline (BL-11) of the SR Center, Ritsumeikan University, Japan. A Mo/Si multilayer mirror was deposited on the surface of a Si(111) substrate by an ion beam sputtering method. It was cut into two pieces which were then used as reflection-type polarizers. When the incident wavelength was scanned from 12.4 nm to 14.8 nm by a Monk-Gillieson type varied-line-spacing grating monochromator of the BL-11, the angles of incidence of both the Mo/Si multilayer polarizers in the SXPE were also varied from 37.5 to 52.3. The polarizances depended strongly on the wavelength, and the best performance of over 99% was obtained in the vicinity of 14 nm. Using these polarizers, we assessed that the degree of linear polarization of the BL-11 was almost constant at 85-88% in the measured wavelength range.

A novel apparatus for polarimetric and ellipsometric measurements for the complete polarization analysis in the soft X-ray (SX) region, which is based on the rotating-analyzer ellipsometry by using six independently movable drive shafts, has been designed, constructed, and installed in BL-11. Linear polarization measurement has been demonstrated using two identical Mo/Si multilayer polarizers. The incident wavelength was scanned from 12.4 nm to 14.8 nm by a VLS-PGM of BL-11, and the angles of incidence of both polarizers were also varied from 37.5 to 52.3. The best performance of polarizers has been determined to be over 99% at 13.9 nm, and the degree of linear polarization has been assessed to be 85-88% in the measured wavelength range for the first time since the completion of the beamline. This means that BL-11 is upgraded as the comprehensive evaluation beamline for optical elements including polarizing elements for use in the SX region.

Times Cited Count:2 Percentile:14.6(Spectroscopy)To meet the needs we have been developing an apparatus to evaluate polarization abilities of multilayer- and crystal-types polarizing elements and determine the polarization state of light in 1 keV region. The 8-axis goniometer called the polarization analysis-unit is equipped in this apparatus and consists of a phase shifter-unit and an analyzer-unit. All axes can be driven with HV compatible stepping motors. Both reflection- and transmission-types samples are available on P and A. Therefore, this apparatus makes it possible to carry out not only conventional reflection and transmission measurements but also four scanning modes which are double- reflections and transmissions, and transmission-reflection and vice versa.

It can realize the optical configurations for the complete polarization analysis by using six independently movable drive shafts. A demonstration of the capabilities of the apparatus has been performed using Mo/Si multilayer polarizers deposited by an ion beam sputtering method. It is for the first time shown that the degree of linear polarization of monochromatized light from the BL-11 is approximately 87% at 92 eV since the beamline has been constructed.

Times Cited Count:3 Percentile:17.92(Physics, Applied)Zero-field muon-spin-relaxation measurements have been carried out for LaSrCuZnO (LSCO)with = 0-0.10 in the overdoped regime up to = 0.30, in order to investigate whether the dynamical stripe correlations are pinned and stabilized even for the overdoped LSCO or not. It has been found that the Zn-induced slowing down of the Cu-spin fluctuations is weakened with increasing but takes place in the overdoped regime and disappears at = 0.30. This suggests that the stripe-pinning model holds good in the whole superconducting regime of LSCO and that there is no quantum critical point at 0.19.

Lanthanide copper oxides of a general formula CuO (: Lanthanide) crystallize in two different structures: the KNiF-type(T-type) and the NdCuO-type(T'-type). The crystal structure of LaCuO synthesized by the solid-state reaction at elevated temperatures, 1000C, is the T-type. Recently, Tsukada et al. have reported that T'-(La,Ln)CuO films, which were prepared at 600C using the molecular beam epitaxy and then annealed in vacuum, show superconductivity with 25K. Here, we report that polycrystalline bulk samples of T'-LaCuO have been successfully synthesized by precipitation from the molten NaOH/KOH eutectic mixture at a temperature as low as 350C. The powder X-ray diffraction pattern has revealed the formation of a single phase with the T'-type structure. The lattice parameters are a4.02 and c12.49. The a-axis length is much larger than that of PrCuO (a3.96). However, no superconductivity is observed at t2K in the magnetic susceptibility and electrical resistivity measurements.
