Ref: DB/26/32 Background

Elettra Sincrotrone Trieste is an international multidisciplinary research center offering international users access to synchrotron and free-electron laser radiation for the characterization and processing of matter. The extremely high quality of the light sources and beamlines has set new performance records and has been producing results of great scientific and technological interest. In order to allow the laboratory to remain competitive in the next 20 years, an entirely new synchrotron radiation source - Elettra 2.0 - belonging to the new generation of storage rings (DLSR or Diffraction Limited Storage Ring) is being installed and will join the already operating free-electron source FERMI in the next months. The new source will exhibit a major increase in the brilliance and coherence fraction of the photon beams. The Elettra 2.0 optics is based on our enhanced symmetric six bend achromat structure (S6BA-E) with a 12-fold symmetry and an emittance of 200 GeV.



The new structure creates also straight sections in the arcs permitting the installation of additional insertion devices, thus increasing the number of beamlines. Existing beamlines are being upgraded and new beamlines constructed to take full advantage of the characteristics of Elettra 2.0.

Beamline / Project / Activity description
The ESCA Microscopy beamline provides linearly polarized photons in the energy range of 400–1200 eV. The beamline hosts a zone-plate-based Scanning Photoemission Microscope (SPEM), primarily used to perform spatially resolved photoemission spectroscopy and imaging.

The research projects carried out at ESCA Microscopy include the study of the chemical, electronic, and physical properties of materials at the submicron scale in different fields, including materials science and solid-state physics. Recently, a dedic
