The synchrotron radiation laboratory (SRL) advances novel materials research by developing soft X-ray spectroscopic techniques using the high-brilliance synchrotron radiation source. In the Harima Office, we have the world's highest performance fast polarization-switching soft X-ray undulator beamline (University of Tokyo Synchrotron Radiation Outstation Beamline) at SPring-8 BL07LSU, which is equipped with ambient pressure photoemission spectroscopy, three-dimensional nano-ESCA, and high-resolution soft X-ray emission spectroscopy stations. We actively accept joint research projects including international and industrial collaborations. Joint Research at SPring-8 will end in the first half of FY2022, and in the second half of FY2022, laser-spin angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and ambientpressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy using X-ray tubes will be conducted. We are also working on the R&D of a new spectroscopic imaging station to advance our measurement techniques for the next generation synchrotron radiation NanoTerasu. In the E-building at Kashiwa, an ultra-high resolution spin-resolved photoemission spectrometer equipped with the VLEED spin detector, is under operation and open for joint research using vacuum ultraviolet and soft X-ray laser sources developed by the LASOR laser group. We are also starting up a time-resolved photoemission spectroscopy system moved from SPring-8 to the E-building.
