Hi-SPEAR 2016

Spectroscopy is a powerful and widespread technique that can be used to elucidate the chemical make-up and the electronic and magnetic structure of materials. The energy tunability, high photon flux, small photon beams and polarization control that are delivered by synchrotron radiation facilities are extremely advantageous for the various spectroscopic tools that are used by researchers in applied research. For example, the characterization of a materials electronic structure with high-resolution is desired in order to begin to understand the complex mechanisms in play and to disentangle contributions from competing processes. These can then be employed in the development of novel materials with increased efficiencies or in the investigation of real devices under operando conditions. With higher energy resolution, greater detail can be obtained which can lead to a greater understanding of the system under study and provide the necessary knowledge to refine and develop new models.

Hi-SPEAR (Hi-resolution Spectroscopy for Applied Research) is the satellite workshop of the SOLEIL 2016 Users’ meeting that is designed to bring together researchers who use or are interested in applying high resolution spectroscopy in the fields of applied research with a strong emphasis on energy storage (fuel cells, catalysis and solar cells), micro-electronics and semiconductors, spintronic devices and the use of magnetic nanoparticles.

Various spectroscopic techniques such as Infrared spectroscopy, X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy, XAFS (NEXAFS / XANES), X-ray Magnetic Circular Dichroism and Inelastic X-ray Scattering will all be presented and discussed during the meeting. Potentials for further developments in these fields will be greatly welcomed. Ample opportunities for discussion will be available during coffee and lunch breaks and also at the poster session.

Hi-SPEAR 2016 will take place from the 19th to the 20th January 2016. We look forward to seeing you there (Users' Meeting 2016).

Dear Sir/Madam,

We are pleased to invite your company to participate in Hi-SPEAR 2016: a satellite workshop of the 2016 SOLEIL Users’ Meeting. Hi-SPEAR (High-resolution SPEctroscopy for Applied Research) is a meeting dedicated to the application of high-resolution spectroscopy using synchrotron radiation in applied research.  Leading researchers in the field of applied spectroscopy as well as people interested in the potential of applying these techniques in their various research fields will be in attendance.  The scope of the workshop is diverse and will cover research topics in microelectronics, energy storage, and magnetic materials. Being an applied workshop, instrumentation is a key component and which could be beneficial for the promotion of your company’s products and services and during the 2 days of this workshop, you will have the ability to discuss and build new relationships with potential customers.

You can find more information regarding the workshop at the Hi-SPEAR 2016 website and we would like to invite you to start planning your participation as an industrial exhibitor or sponsor. Different options are available, which are detailed below. If you wish to join us, please fill in and send in the registration form. For any further inquiries concerning exhibiting at and sponsoring Hi-SPEAR 2016, please contact Conf-HiSPEAR2016 @synchrotron-soleil.fr.

 We are looking forward to welcoming you in Saint Aubin.

 Yours sincerely,

 The  local organizing committee
