Research Abstract |
In materials research using synchrotron x-rays, x-ray polarization analyzer is quite useful for the investigations of strongly correlated systems and magnetism. However, the conventional x-ray analyzer has two disadvantages: 1) the available wavelength is limited and 2) it is insensitive to the helicity of the photons. In order to solve these problems, we have developed and improved the x-ray MBD analyzer which makes use of x-ray-multiple-diffraction by a crystal. Further, we have developed polarization-controlled glancing-angle x-ray topography and observed defects and strain fields located in the surface layer of an epitaxial 4H-SiC wafer.
