Development of the x-ray standing waves methodology to probe the interfaces of periodic multilayers / Développement de la méthodologie des ondes stationnaires pour sonder les processus physico-chimiques aux interfaces des multicouches périodiques

Wu, Meiyi 14 September 2018 (has links)
La qualité des interfaces dans les multicouches périodiques est essentielle au développement de miroirs réfléchissant efficacement dans les domaines des rayons X et extrême ultraviolet (X-EUV). De manière générale, la structure des interfaces dépend des possibles interdiffusion et processus chimiques aux interfaces entre couches. L'idée principale de cette thèse est d'appliquer la technique des ondes stationnaires dans le domaine X à la caractérisation de matériaux, principalement mais non exclusivement aux multicouches périodiques. Cette méthode est basée sur l'interférence de deux faisceaux de rayons X cohérents. L'interférence constructive sur un plan anti-nodal amplifie le champ électrique tandis que l'interférence destructive minimise ce dernier sur un plan nodal. Cette technique des ondes stationnaires dans le domaine X permet l'excitation (photoémission, fluorescence, ...) d'endroits spécifiques dans un empilement périodique de matériaux. De cette manière, les spectres expérimentaux ainsi obtenus sont principalement les spectres caractéristiques des atomes situés sur un plan anti-nodal. Combinée avec d'autres techniques expérimentales telles que la spectroscopie d'émission X (XES) ou la spectroscopie de photoélectrons dans le domaine X (XPS), une information sélective en profondeur, avec une sensibilité sub-nanométrique, peut être obtenue. / The interfacial information of periodic multilayers can be crucial for the development of reflecting mirrors which operate in the X-ray and extreme ultraviolet (X-EUV) ranges. Such information may contain the interdiffusion and chemical process at the interfaces of the layers. The idea of this thesis is to apply the X-ray standing wave technique to the characterization of materials, mainly but not limited to the periodic multilayers. X-ray standing wave technique enables to enhance the excitation (photoemission, fluorescence etc.) of specific locations within a periodic stack. The nature of such advantage is the interference of two coherent X-ray beams. One may compare the X-ray standing waves with the mechanical standing waves. The constructive interference at the anti-nodal plane amplifies the electric field; while the destructive interference at the nodal plane minimizes the electric field. In this way, the experimental spectra obtained under standing wave field will be mostly the material located on the anti-nodal plane. Combined with other techniques such as X-ray emission spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, a depth-selective information with a sub-nanoscale sensitivity can be obtained.

Vaverka, Jan January 2017 (has links)
This diploma thesis focuses on studies of deposition of molecular nanomagnets doubledecker dysporsium phtalocyanine via Langmuir-Blodgett method. The thesis describes the influence of deposition parameters on structure of deposited molecular layer of doubledecker dysporsium phtalocyanine. The prepared molecular layers are analysed by X-ray reflectivity and Atomic force microscopy. Moreover, the proposal of structural changes of KSV Minimicro instrument, used for Langmuir Blodgett deposition, is described. The intended result is Langmuir trough of bigger dimensions than the recent one, which would enable to distribute molecular layers numbering about magnitude of hundreds.

Optical Properties of Perovskite-Organic Multiple Quantum Wells

Antrack, Tobias, Kroll, Martin, Sudzius, Markas, Cho, Changsoon, Imbrasas, Paulius, Albaladejo-Siguan, Miguel, Benduhn, Johannes, Merten, Lena, Hinderhofer, Alexander, Schreiber, Frank, Reineke, Sebastian, Vaynzof, Yana, Leo, Karl 02 February 2024 (has links)
A comprehensive study of the optical properties of CsPbBr₃ perovskite multiple quantum wells (MQW) with organic barrier layers is presented. Quantum confinement is observed by a blue-shift in absorption and emission spectra with decreasing well width and agrees well with simulations of the confinement energies. A large increase of emission intensity with thinner layers is observed, with a photoluminescence quantum yield up to 32 times higher than that of bulk layers. Amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) measurements show very low thresholds down to 7.3 μJ cm−² for a perovskite thickness of 8.7 nm, significantly lower than previously observed for CsPbBr₃ thin-films. With their increased photoluminescence efficiency and low ASE thresholds, MQW structures with CsPbBr₃ are excellent candidates for high-efficiency perovskite-based LEDs and lasers.

Studies of crystalline organic molecular materials under extreme conditions

Biggs, Timothy James January 2006 (has links)
This thesis describes investigations into the properties of -phase BEDT-TTF charge transfer salts. Charge transfer salts are mainly studied as they are very useful test beds for fundamental physics due to the tuneability of their proper- ties and ground states. The effects of temperature and pressure on such systems have been studied, as these allow access to a wide range of different states and properties. Transport properties of these systems have been studied to obtain information about the Fermi surface and effective mass, and the effect of deuter- ation and also change of pressure media will be discussed. The interaction of infrared radiation with these systems has also been investigated and simultaneous pressure and temperature measurements will be presented, something not greatly studied due to the large technical challenges. The techniques and approaches for overcoming these are also discussed. Chapter 1 provides an introduction to the organic materials themselves with particular emphasis on the actual compounds studied. Chapter 2 provides the necessary theoretical background for studying organic charge transfer salts using magnetic quantum oscillations and their infrared re- ectivity. Chapter 3 covers the experimental techniques and also discusses some of the challenges encountered and their solutions to aid others working in this area. Chapter 4 describes an investigation into the transport properties of - (ET)2Cu(SCN)2 by studying Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations using both deuter- ated and normal samples and using two different pressure media, and comparing it to work done using a third. Chapter 5 presents an investigation into the pressure dependence of selected phonon modes in -(ET)2Cu(SCN)2 using infrared radiation on a deuterated sam- ple. Chapter 6 presents what is believed to be the first pressure and temperature dependent infrared study of an organic molecular material. In this case the or- ganic molecular material is d8--(ET)2Cu[N(CN)2]Br, but the techniques should be readily transferable to other materials.

Investigation of magnetic order in nickel-5d transition metal systems

Papadopoulos, Konstantinos January 2019 (has links)
Double perovskite materials exhibit alterations in magnetic order through manipulation oftheir crystal structure. Certain ultra thin metallic bilayers can create an exotic magnetic stateof confined spin textures called skyrmions. In both cases, new atomic arrangements leadto new electrical and magnetic properties. The following work comprises two studies, bothof which examine the magnetic properties of transition metals in either powder or thin filmsamples. The first part is dedicated to a series of muon spin rotation and relaxation (muSR)experiments on a LaSrNiReO6, double perovskite, powder sample. In the muSR technique, aspin polarized muon beam is focused onto a powder envelope in low pressure and temperatureconditions. The spins of the implanted muons evolve depending on the intrinsic or externallyapplied magnetic field according to Larmor precession. The measurement is based onthe detection of decay positrons that carry this precession information on their preferreddecay directions. Measurements that were realized in wTF, ZF and LF setups, reveal asecond transition to magnetic order at Tc ≃ 22K, below a transition that was observed at T =261K from magnetic susceptibility measurements. The experimental results point to threemagnetic phases, paramagnetic for T > 261K, dilute ferrimagnetic for 22 < T < 261K and amagnetically ordered state for T < 22K, that may implicate ferro- and antiferromagnetismfrom Ni sublattices and Ni-Re interactions. The second part follows an attempt to produce and characterize ultra thin bilayer filmsfor the observation of interfacial chiral structures and skyrmions. Co/Fe/MgO (100) andW/Ni/Cu (100) bilayers were grown with magnetron sputter deposition in various layerthicknesses and their structure was determined by X-ray reflectometry (XRR). The XRRscans presented a relatively thick-layered Co/Fe/MgO film, while extremely thin and roughW/Ni/Cu bilayers, for the purposes of studying films with broken interfacial inversionsymmetry. This study was concluded with indicative magneto-transport measurements thatalso point to the reconfiguration of the growth procedure.

Polarimetrische Streuungseigenschaften und Fokussierungsmethoden zur quantitativen Auswertung der polarimetrischen SAR-Daten

Phruksahiran, Narathep 08 March 2013 (has links) (PDF)
Das Radar mit synthetischer Apertur (Synthetic Aperture Radar - SAR) liefert eine quasi-fotographische Abbildung der beleuchteten Bodenoberfläche mit zusätzlichen Informationen, die von der gesendeten und empfangenen Polarisation der Wellen abhängig sind. Eine nützliche Anwendung der polarimetrischen SAR-Daten liegt bei der Klassifizierung der Bodenstruktur anhand der polarimetrischen Streuungseigenschaften. In diesem Zusammenhang beschäftigt sich die vorliegende Arbeit mit der Entwicklung und Untersuchung neuer polarimetrischen Fokussierungsfunktion für die SAR-Datenverarbeitung mit Hilfe der polarimetrischen Rückstreuungseigenschaft, die zu einer alternativen quantitativen Auswertung der polarimerischen SAR-Daten führen kann. Die physikalische Optik Approximation wird für die numerische Berechnung der rückgestreuten elektrischen Felder der kanonischen Ziele unter SAR-Geometrie unter Berücksichtigung der Polarisationslage verwendet. Aus den rückgestreuten elektrischen Felder werden die polarimetrischen Radarrückstreuquerschnitte berechnet. Ein SAR-Simulator wird zur Datenverarbeitung der E-SAR des DLR entwickelt. Der Ansatz des polarimetrischen Radarrückstreuquerschnittes ermöglicht die approximierte numerische Berechnung der Rückstreuungseigenschaften der kanonischen Ziele sowohl im kopolaren als auch im kreuzpolaren Polarisationsbetrieb. Bei der SAR-Datenverarbeitung werden die Rohdatensätze durch die Referenzfunktion eines Punktzieles in der Entfernungsrichtung verarbeitet. Bei der Azimutkompression werden die vier Referenzfunktionen, das heißt die Referenzfunktion eines Punktzieles, die polarimetrische Fokussierungsfunktion einer flachen Platte, die polarimetrische Fokussierungsfunktion eines Zweifach-Reflektors und die polarimetrische Fokussierungsfunktion eines Dreifach-Reflektors, eingesetzt. Die qunatitativen Auswertung der SAR-Daten werden anhand des Pauli-Zerlegungstheorems, der differentiellen Reflektivität und des linearen Depolarisationsverhältnises durchgeführt.
