The webinar is part of the LINXS webinar series, CoWork. The CoWork webinar series is dedicated to the exploitation of the coherence properties of X-rays for advanced materials characterization, with a special focus on inverse microscopy techniques, such as Coherent Diffraction Imaging (CDI), Ptychography and Holography.
Abstract
In my talk, I will present some opportunities of scientific investigation by micro-spectro-scattering in the soft X-ray regime, as implemented and developed at CSX, the Coherent Soft X-ray scattering beamline of NSLS-II (BNL). The peculiarity of such an integrated approach in terms of space, time, penetration depth, energy scales, correlations, allows revealing unique properties and shining new light on a variety of interesting cases. Electronic orderings, inhomogeneities, self-organization, collective dynamics and interplay of degrees of freedom will be presented, together with some future ideas.
