High-resolution monochromator for the 8.41 keV 169Tm nuclear resonance.

Rare-earth elements are key components in a wide range of functional materials, including solid-state lasers, superconductors and high-performance permanent magnets, owing to their localized 4f electrons that give rise to distinctive electronic and magnetic properties. Nuclear resonant scattering of synchrotron radiati...
