A new robot helper is under development as a collaboration between RobotLab LTH and MAX IV. A couple of days ago it was finally able to say “hi” by drawing out our name. It is coming close to completion and the team are now only working on the final touches. Lisa Klighav, LTH has as
In a study conducted at beamline Bloch, the complete band structure of one-dimensional graphene nanoribbons was mapped for the first time using ARPES. The nanoribbons, grown on a substrate that is suitable for upscaling, have a width dependent bandgap important for device integration. The team of researchers from Germany, Sweden and Ireland recently published their
The FemtoMAX beamline team has successfully conducted their first time-resolved experiment with the MAX IV linac operating in 10 Hz mode. On the Thursday evening of December 3rd, the FemtoMAX beamline recorded their first ultrafast time-resolved scan with the MAX IV LINAC operating in 10 Hz mode. This is a tremendous milestone and when we

Determining strain in nanoparticles is tricky at the best of
The Swedish Research Council (Vetenskapsrådet), which funds the majority of MAX IV operations, conducted a review of MAX IV project management on 5-9 November 2020, the fourth since summer 2018. As previously, the 7-member review committee focused on the management of MAX IV accelerator and beamline projects and how MAX IV is handling the transition
We regret to inform you that Bengt Forkman passed away at the age of 90. Bengt was Professor Emeritus of Nuclear Physics at the Department of Physics at Lund University. He is well recognized as the initiator of MAX-lab as well as its first director from 1981 to 1991, as chronicled in his book, “And
