X-PEEM Upgrades for time resolved measurement
# Modification of the time resolved setup (Coll. I. Néel) to reach the requested spatial resolution in Pump-Probe mode:
- New electronics and manipulator cabling
- Two years PostDoc to be hired (July 2014: 50% M3D, 50% SOLEIL).
- Implementation starts after static spatial resolution demonstration (Summer 2014).
- The system will be first tested on the X-PEEM and then extended to the STXM
