Synthesis Attempt and Structural Studies of Novel ACeWO Double Perovskites (A = Ba, Ca) in and outside of Ambient Conditions.

This comprehensive work showcases two novel, rock-salt-type minerals in the form of amphoteric cerium-tungstate double perovskite and ilmenite powders created via a high-temperature solid-state reaction in inert gases. The presented studies have fundamental meaning and will mainly focus on a detailed synthesis description of undoped structures, researching their possible polymorphism in various conditions and hinting at some nontrivial physicochemical properties like charge transfer for upcoming optical studies after eventual doping with selectively chosen rare-earth ions. The formerly mentioned, targeted ABB'X group of compounds contains mainly divalent alkali cations in the form of A = Ba, Ca sharing, here, oxygen-arranged clusters (X = O) with purposely selected central ions from f-block B = Ce and d-block B' = W since together they often possess some exotic properties that could be tuned and implemented into futuristic equipment like sensors or energy converters.

A UHV MOKE magnetometer complementing XMCD-PEEM at the Elettra Synchrotron.

We report on a custom-built UHV-compatible Magneto-Optical Kerr Effect (MOKE) magnetometer for applications in surface and materials sciences, operating in tandem with the PhotoEmission Electron Microscope (PEEM) endstation at the Nanospectroscopy beamline of the Elettra synchrotron. The magnetometer features a liquid-nitrogen-cooled electromagnet that is fully compatible with UHV operation and produces magnetic fields up to about 140 mT at the sample. Longitudinal and polar MOKE measurement geometries are realized.
