Interest in the use of soft X-ray resonant magnetic scattering techniques to probe the distribution of magnetic moments in thin films has exploded during the last few years. In this paper a novel diffractometer devoted to temperature-dependent soft X-ray resonant scattering is described. The principal features of the diffractometer are presented and illustrated through experiments performed at LURE during the commissioning phase.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
