- The meltdown behaviour of pellets reduced under different conditions in a reduction under load furnace has been examined. The pellet type, temperature increase rate, the gas flow and the applied load over the crucible were varied between trials. Samples from 12 trials interrupted just before meltdown were studied under an optical microscope and it was found that all iron oxides in the samples were reduced to iron. After the etching of the samples the carbon content was estimated. The carbon content differs within the samples as well as between the samples. A correlation exists between the average carbon content in a sample and the meltdown temperature. Some differences in the iron structure and the carbon content between the crucible wall and the crucible centre are discussed. Because no big difference in carbon content was found between the crucible wall and the crucible centre most of the carbon in the samples probably dissolves in the metal by a gas reaction where CO gas forms carbon and CO2 .

Determination of small-scale magnetic fields on Sun-like stars in the near-infrared using CRIRES

- Aims: We aim to characterise the small-scale magnetic fields of a sample of 16 Sun-like stars and investigate the capabilities of the newly upgraded near-infrared (NIR) instrument CRIRES+ at the Very Large Telescope in the context of small-scale magnetic field studies. Our targets also had their magnetic fields studied with optical spectra, which allowed us to compare magnetic field properties at different spatial scales on the stellar surface and to contrast small-scale magnetic field measurements at different wavelengths.Methods: We analysed the Zeeman broadening signature for six magnetically sensitive and insensitive Fe I lines in the H-band to measure small-scale magnetic fields on the stellar surfaces of our sample. We used polarised radiative transfer modelling and non-local thermodynamic equilibrium departure coefficients in combination with Markov chain Monte Carlo sampling to determine magnetic field characteristics and non-magnetic stellar parameters. We used two different approaches to describe the small-scale magnetic fields. The first is a two-component model with a single magnetic region and a free magnetic field strength. The second model contains multiple magnetic components with fixed magnetic field strengths.Results: We found average magnetic field strengths ranging from & SIM;0.4 kG down to < 0.1 kG. The results align closely with other results from high-resolution NIR spectrographs, such as SPIRou. It appears that the typical magnetic field strength in the magnetic region is slightly stronger than 1.3 kG, and for most stars in our sample, this strength is between 1 and 2 kG. We also found that the small-scale fields correlate with the large-scale fields and that the small-scale fields are at least ten times stronger than the large-scale fields inferred with Zeeman Doppler imaging. The two- and multi-component models produce systematically different results, as the strong fields from the multi-component model increase the obtained mean magnetic field strength. When comparing our results with the optical measurements of small-scale fields, we found a systematic offset two to three times stronger than fields in the optical results. This discrepancy cannot be explained by uncertainties in stellar parameters. Care should therefore be taken when comparing results obtained at different wavelengths until a clear cause can be established.

Ultrathin Co films on flat and vicinal Cu(111) surfaces: per atom determination of orbital and spin moments

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- We have performed x-ray magnetic circular dichroism, x-ray resonant magnetic scattering and scanning tunnelling microscopy measurements on ultrathin Co films deposited on flat and vicinal Cu(111). The range of film thickness varies between one and 25 monolayers. For the vicinal Cu(111), Co deposition below one monolayer leads to the formation of elongated islands preferentially oriented along the step edges. These islands extend over lateral length scales of up to several thousand angstroms. For the thicker films we still observe that the vicinal surface leads to the occurrence of a preferential uniaxial growth direction. No such preferential growth direction can be identified for the flat surface. In correlation to the Co growth we observe an increase of both the orbital and the spin moment per Co atom on vicinal Cu(111) of about 25% versus what was observed for Co on flat Cu(111). This enhancement is observed in both the x-ray absorption and the reflectivity measurements. Similar to what was earlier reported for Co on Cu(100) we also observe for the case Co on Cu(111) an increase in the ratio m(l)/m(s), (orbital to spin moments) of 40% for thin Co films. In contrast to what has been reported for Co films on flat and vicinal Cu(100) we do not observe any major variations in the occupancy of the Co 3d states for Co grown on the vicinal Cu(111) surface.

Electronic and molecular structures of organic dye/TiO2 interfaces for solar cell applications : a core level photoelectron spectroscopy study

- The electronic and molecular properties of three organic dye molecules with the general structure donor-linker-anchor have been investigated using core level photoelectron spectroscopy (PES). The molecules contain a diphenylaniline donor unit, a thiophene linker unit, and cyanoacrylic acid or rhodanine-3-acetic acid anchor units. They have been investigated both in the form of a multilayer and adsorbed onto nanoporous TiO2 and the experimental results were also compared with DFT calculations. The changes at the dye-sensitized TiO2 surface due to the modification of either the donor unit or the anchor unit was investigated and the results showed important differences in coverage as well as in electronic and molecular surface properties. By measuring the core level binding energies, the sub-molecular properties were characterized and the result showed that the adsorption to the TiO2 influences the energy levels of the sub-molecular units differently.

Mapping the frontier electronic structures of triphenylamine based organic dyes at TiO2 interfaces

- The frontier electronic structures of a series of organic dye molecules containing a triphenylamine moiety, a thiophene moiety and a cyanoacrylic acid moiety have been investigated by photoelectron spectroscopy (PES), X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) and resonant photoelectron spectroscopy (RPES). The experimental results were compared to electronic structure calculations on the molecules, which are used to confirm and enrich the assignment of the spectra. The approach allows us to experimentally measure and interpret the basic valence energy level structure in the dye, including the highest occupied energy level and how it depends on the interaction between the different units. Based on N 1s X-ray absorption and emission spectra we also obtain insight into the structure of the excited states, the molecular orbital composition and dynamics. Together the results provide an experimentally determined energy level map useful in the design of these types of materials. Included are also results indicating femtosecond charge redistribution at the dye/TiO2 interface.

- Different molecular layers on TiO2 were prepared by using the p-dimethylaniline triphenylamine based organic dye, D29, together with the coadsorbents decylphosphonic acid (DPA), dineohexyl bis(3,3-dimethylbutyl)phosphinic acid (DINHOP), and chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA). The surface molecular structure of dye and coadsorbent layers on TiO2 was investigated by photoelectron spectroscopy (PES). A focus was to determine the surface molecular concentrations using characteristic photoelectron core levels. Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) were prepared from the same substrate and were further characterized by photoelectrochemical methods. Together the investigation gives information on the arrangement of the mixed molecular layer and a first insight to the extent to which the coadsorbents exchange with dye molecules on the TiO2 surface for the examined conditions.
