Summary on Grant Application Form
The application is for funding to support an extensive programme on the study of spin-polarised photoemission from (i) amorphous magnetic alloys and (ii) magnetic thin films and overlayers. The programme is designed to exploit the new spin-polarised facilities on the SRS by concentrating on novel materials on which both Leeds and York have considerable experience. For both types of material it is our intention to prepare samples in situ with emphasis in the latter case of reproducing the growth conditions of sputtering and MBE. The research is designed to gain direct information on the spin-resolved densities of electron states `responsible' for the magnetic properties of the two different classes of substance, and for their variation with alloy composition of the amorphous alloys, and with the magnetic elements, growth conditions, substrates and overlayer thicknesses of the thin films.
