Description
Furka, the end-station for condensed matter and quantum materials at Athos beamline, will be dedicated to time resolved Resonant Inelastic and Elastic X-ray Scattering (tr-RIXS and tr- REXS) and time-resolved soft X-ray diffraction (tr-SXRD) studies. The intriguing properties of correlated materials originate from the strong coupling between charge, orbital, spin, and lattice degrees of freedom. Ultrafast spectroscopy and tr-SXRD are unique tools to disentangle different degrees of freedom. After a brief overview of the Athos project describing its unique features, we will present the Furka’s scientific case giving a general concept of the instrument. In the future it will be investigated the option to perform experiments in the nonlinear optics regime, taking advantage of the multicolour and TeraWatt-attosecond pulses provided.
