Ultracompact 3D microfluidics for time-resolved structural biology

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
There is a need for more robust sample delivery methods for serial crystallography. Here the authors present the design and characterization of ultracompact 3D microfluidic devices that can be printed, which require less sample, have a lower background ...

CLARA conceptual design report [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This report describes the conceptual design of a proposed free electron laser test facility called CLARA that will be a major upgrade to the existing VELA accelerator test facility at Daresbury Laboratory in the UK. CLARA will be able to test a number of

Setting the photoelectron clock through molecular alignment

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Interaction of strong laser fields with matter provides powerful tools to image transient dynamics with high spatiotemporal resolution. The authors investigate strong-field ionisation of laser-aligned molecules showing the effect of molecular alignment ...

Polarization-state-resolved high-harmonic spectroscopy of solids

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
High-harmonic generation in solids is related to the carrier dynamics and can be used to probe dynamic processes. Here, Klemke et al. show that the polarization states of high harmonics generated from silicon and quartz are determined by the crystal ...

Pump-probe X-ray holographic imaging of laser-induced cavitation bubbles with femtosecond FEL pulses

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Cavitation bubbles show many nonlinear characteristics of liquid and gas phase. Here the authors demonstrate coherent diffractive imaging of cavitation bubble using infrared pump and XFEL probe and discuss the formation and evolution of the bubbles.

Nanometer-resolution hard X-ray near-field ptychography with multilayer Laue lenses [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences
In coherent X-ray diffraction imaging, resolution is limited by the scattering power of the sample, where high-angle signals are weak and compete with background and noise.

Optical guiding in a free electron laser [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 1985
Abstract The coherent interaction between an optical wave and an electron beam in a free electron laser (FEL) is shown to be capable of optically guiding the light. The effect is analyzed using a two-dimensional approximation for the FEL equations, and using the properties of optical fibers.

Simple convergent-nozzle aerosol injector for single-particle diffractive imaging with X-ray free-electron lasers

open access: yesStructural Dynamics, 2015
A major challenge in high-resolution x-ray free-electron laser-based coherent diffractive imaging is the development of aerosol injectors that can efficiently deliver particles to the peak intensity of the focused X-ray beam. Here, we consider the use of

Ultrashort ultraviolet free-electron lasers [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of X-Ray Science and Technology, 1994
In this work we combine elements of chirped pulse amplification (CPA) techniques, now familiar in solid-state lasers, with an amplifier based upon a seeded free-electron laser (FEL). The resulting device would produce amplified pulses of unprecedented brevity at wavelengths shorter than can be currently obtained by any tunable laser system.

Microsecond hydrodynamic interactions in dense colloidal dispersions probed at the European XFEL

open access: yesIUCrJ, 2021
Many soft-matter systems are composed of macromolecules or nanoparticles suspended in water. The characteristic times at intrinsic length scales of a few nanometres fall therefore in the microsecond and sub-microsecond time regimes.
