Micro Pattern Gas Detector for X-ray polarimetry
We report on a new instrument that brings high efficiency to x-ray polarimetry, which is the last unexplored field of x-ray astronomy. It derives the polarization information from the tracks of the photoelectrons imaged by a finely subdivided gas pixel ...

Rotational Anisotropy Raman Spectrometer for High‐Sensitivity Crystallographic Symmetry Analysis
We introduce rotational‐anisotropy Raman spectroscopy, an enhanced scheme that overcomes the limitations of traditional polarization‐resolved Raman techniques. This method reveals previously inaccessible phonon symmetries and resolves directional anisotropy of phonon‐polaritons in benchmark crystals, establishing a powerful new tool for characterizing ...

Ultrathin Freestanding BiFeO3 Membranes Grown by Pulsed Laser Deposition
Ultrathin freestanding BiFeO3 membranes down to five‐unit cells are realized by pulsed laser deposition using a water‐soluble Sr3Al2O6 sacrificial layer. Strontium diffusion is revealed to drive the spontaneous formation of an Aurivillius‐like phase, while ultrathin SrRuO3 interlayers suppress interfacial intermixing, preserve polar tetragonality, and ...

We developed hierarchical chiral Au nanostructures on Au coral structures on transparent conductive oxide substrates using only electrochemical methods. By controlling the interaction between [AuCl4]– and cysteine, we successfully tuned the morphology and circular dichroism of the resulting Au nanostructures.

High‐purity X‐ray polarimetry at high energies for Mössbauer spectroscopy
This work extends high‐purity X‐ray polarimetry into the 15–30 keV range, enabling polarization‐filtered synchrotron Mössbauer spectroscopy of higher‐energy nuclear resonances. A proof‐of‐principle experiment at 22.494 keV demonstrates a polarization purity of (1.2 ± 0.5) × 10−8, establishing the feasibility of the approach.High‐purity X‐ray ...
