LURE

Objective


British teams from Glasgow and Edinburgh studied the non-linear properties of semiconductors using the CLIO infrared free-electron laser. This covered various aspects of two-photon absorption in InSb and InAs.

A multi-national collaboration project investigated magnetic X-ray dichroism under high field strengths, using the DCI storage ring.

A series of Portuguese studies has taken place since 1990, which used SR induced X-ray fluorescence to investigate the valorisation of minerals. The tiny 50 um beam spot is able to map the elemental distribution in geological samples leading to greater analytic efficiency and aiding the understanding of the geochemical history of the sample.

A French/Greek collaboration investigated time-correlated models applied to chemical reactions in a restricted geometry. Using phospholipid vesicles and fluorescence decay profiles, researchers were able to monitor a reaction in the vesicle step by step to the scale of a few nanometres.
During this project, users from 10 countries used the LURE facilities and more than 400 experiments were completed. Usage by project participants totalled 25% of the total time available at the facility. A part of this project called for the construction of a photo-diffraction/photo-emission experimental station on the Super-ACO ring. This facility was constructed primarily by Spanish groups.

In the first year, 15 projects were completed on this new station, with the following results: a new stable phase of low alkali doped fullerene compounds was found; in experiments using copper oxide surfaces, two-dimensional Fermi surfaces at different photon energies were determined for the first time.

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Funding Scheme

Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.
