Fast and versatile polarization control of X-ray by segmented cross undulator at SPring-8

Abstract An X-ray is the well-known probe to examine structure of materials, including our own bodies. The X-ray beam, especially at the wavelength of nanometers, has also become significant to directly investigate electronic states of a sample. Such an X-ray is called a soft X-ray and polarization...
