Applications of x-ray magnetic circular and linear dichroism (XMCD and XMLD) are
reviewed in the soft x-ray region, covering the photon energy range 0.4-2 keV, which …

Chiral magnets are promising materials for the realisation of high-density and low-power
spintronic memory devices. For these future applications, a key requirement is the synthesis …

The designs of a compact, fast CCD (cFCCD) camera, together with a resonant soft x-ray
scattering endstation, are presented. The cFCCD camera consists of a highly parallel …

Resonant Inelastic X-ray Scattering (RIXS) in the soft x-ray range is an element-specific
energy-loss spectroscopy used to probe the electronic and magnetic excitations in strongly …

We describe the design, construction, and performance of a 4-circle in-vacuum
diffractometer for resonant elastic soft x-ray scattering. The diffractometer, installed on the …

We report on significant developments of a high vacuum reflectometer (diffractometer) and
spectrometer for soft x-ray synchrotron experiments which allows conducting a wide range of …

Collective spin excitations of ordered magnetic structures offer great potential for the
development of novel spintronic devices. The present approach relies on micromagnetic …
