The tunability of the oxygen content in complex oxides and heterostructures has emerged as a key to designing their physical functionalities. Controlling interface reactivity by redox reactions provides powerful means deliberately set distinct oxide phases emerging properties. We present routes on how control oxygen-driven mechanisms ultrathin ferro(i)magnetic ferroelectric films across interfa...

Abstract X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measures the binding energy of core-level electrons, which are well-localised to specific atomic sites in a molecular system, providing valuable information on local chemical environment. The technique relies measuring spectrum upon x-ray photoionisation, and resolution is often limited by bandwidth ionising pulse. This particularly problematic fo...

Heating a mixture of Nd(NO3)3·6H2O, KCl, Q[10] and Q[5] in HCl for 10 min affords the inclusion complex {NdQ[5]K@Q[10](H2O)4}·4NO3·20H2O. The structure of the inclusion complex has been investigated by single crystal X-ray diffraction and by X-ray Photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS).

Spectromicroscopy (SM) beamline is planned to be one of the day one beamlines of the Iranian Light Source Facility project (ILSF) to open high impact research investigations in the field of soft x-ray spectroscopy and microscopy for the Iranian and regional users. This beamline offers the possibility of performing photoelectron emission microscopy (PEEM) and scanning photoelectron microscopy (S...
