This Science in Developing Countries award will help to support a research collaboration between Professor James Erskine of the University of Texas at Austin and Professor Jose Araya-Pochet of the University of Costa Rica. The researchers intend to explore the relationship between atomic level structure and magnetism, and to probe fundamental concepts in phase transitions. The project will investigate electronic and magnetic properties of matter that are intrinsic to thin film structures, surfaces, and interfaces. The experimental approach will combine novel materials synthesis, advanced structure determination methods, and spin sensitive spectroscopic techniques. The proposed work is driven by new capabilities to deliberately modify and characterize physical properties of matter that affect magnetic behavior, and by recent improvements in magnetically sensitive spectroscopic techniques. These experienced collaborators will use the latest instrumentation at the University of Texas and at the National Synchrotron Light Source at Brookhaven National Laboratory to pursue the goals of the project.

该发展中国家科学奖将有助于支持德克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校的 James Erskine 教授和哥斯达黎加大学的 Jose Araya-Pochet 教授之间的研究合作。 研究人员打算探索原子级结构与磁性之间的关系，并探讨相变的基本概念。 该项目将研究薄膜结构、表面和界面所固有的物质的电子和磁性特性。 该实验方法将结合新型材料合成、先进的结构测定方法和自旋敏感光谱技术。 拟议的工作是由有意修改和表征影响磁性行为的物质物理特性的新能力以及磁敏光谱技术的最新改进推动的。 这些经验丰富的合作者将使用德克萨斯大学和布鲁克海文国家实验室国家同步加速器光源的最新仪器来实现该项目的目标。
