We make the invisible visible
Image: FemtoMAX beamline at MAX IV A research group working with MAX IV’s FemtoMAX beamline has succeeded to slow the phase change from the solid to liquid state in the semiconductor, indium antimonide (InSb), by reducing the inherent vibrations between atoms. An important precursory step in the process was non-thermal melting of the sample, which
In a paper published in October 2019, researchers from different institutions came to MAX IV to study timing performance of scintillators, materials employed in applications such as cancer diagnosis. At FemtoMAX they achieved an instrumental time resolution of 38 picoseconds, something never recorder in literature before. FemtoMAX, the ultrafast beamline at MAX IV, is now
The FemtoMAX beamline at MAX IV Laboratory will use extremely short light pulses to give researchers new insights into chemical reactions and the characteristics of solid materials. Researchers from a number of different fields are already queuing up to use the new tool. Project leader Jörgen Larsson hopes to gain wide-ranging knowledge, including the key
Strålröret FemtoMAX vid MAX IV-laboratoriet ska med hjälp av extremt korta ljuspulser ge forskarna ny kunskap om kemiska reaktioner och egenskaper i fasta material. Forskare från en mängd olika områden står redan i kö för att få använda det nya verktyget. Projektledaren Jörgen Larsson hoppas bland annat kunna få fram kunskap som ska göra det
