Summary on Grant Application Form
Funding is requested to carryout polarised NEXAFS studies on organic systems, using a new environmental chamber on beamline U3C at the National Synchrotron Source (NSLS) at Brookhaven Laboratories, USA. The new facility will enable the collection of NEXFS spectra in the ultra-sot X-ray region around the C, N and O K-edges (ca 200-700 eV), in temperature range 00 - 450K and for a pressure a range 1-10 mBar, including wet and soft-solid interfacial structures. The results yielded from the proposed research programme can be expected to significantly advance our understanding of the structure of molecular surfaces / interfaces in relation to materials processing.
