The PRT policy has made it pos- sible to simultaneously build up scientific capability in a number of different areas. The facility has a wide range of research equipment available to users for basic and applied studies in condensed matter, sur- face science, photochemistry and photo- , lithography, crystallography, small- angle , metallurgy, x-ray micro- scopy, etc. (See Table I) The involvement of scientists from the full spectrum of U.S. institutions is seen in the lists of PRT X-ray and UV beam lines.

There are now a large number of beam lines producing new results in diverse scientific areas. A few of these results are highlighted below.

1 urn X-ray Lithography (Port U6)

The high intensity and collimation of synchrotron radiation from the VUV stor- age ring has been utilized on the IBM lithog- raphy line (Port U6) to expose a number of photoresists. Features as small as 0.25 microns have already been replicated suc- cessfully with high aspect ratios. The large increase in intensity of the storage ring over conventional X-ray sources should allow much greaterthroughput with simple resist processing. If the economic feasibil- ity of using synchrotron radiation for X-ray lithography is demonstrated at the NSLS, High aspect ratio replication of lest there could be a greatly expanded use of patterns in PMMA ohotoresist synchrotron radiation in the U.S. with stor- age rings becoming an integral part of semiconductor device factories. 1 /urn X-ray sar Microscopy (Port U15)

On Port U15 of the VUV storage ring, a research team from the State University of New York at Stony Brook, in collaboration with the NSLS, has constructed a soft X-ray scanning microscope that is providing the first pictures of the internal structure of living cells in aqueous solutions while im- parting a minimal radiation dose. Pre- viously, electron microscopes have been employed to study cells. However, both the vacuum environment and the high radia- tion dose from the electrons prohibit the study of living cells, and destroy the cell's internal structure. Spatial resolutions on the 0.2 micron level have been achieved. With future improvements in resolution, and with the ability to locate the position of specific elements within a cell, this instru- ment may open up entirely new areas of biological research.

The results indicate that solvent reorganization around the ion is not an important factor in the polarization energy. Som° of the above compounds, in liquid hydrogen solvents with high thermal electron mobilities, exhibit photoconduc- tivity spectra with unusual structure (i.e., Participants on the NSLS-HFBR support program several shoulders or maxima).

11 served Rydberg transitions in the gas 1300 i— > SYNCHROTRON RADIATION phase. This fact, together with dramatic PULSE solvent effects on the spectra and quantum yields, leads to the conclusion that for molecules such as anthracene, phoioioni- zation in solution takes place via the initial 1040 - formation of Rydberg states. The figure on the right shows data which represent the time evolution of fluores- cence from cyclohexane upon exposure to synchrotron radiation. Three curves are displayed: the data obtained by single- CO photon time correlation spectroscopy, a z double exponential fit to the data super- posed on it, and the time response function I of the counting system as determined by scattered synchrotron radiation. Excitation takes place at 174 nm, and fluorescence is collected between 210and 240 nm, defined by an interference filter between the sam- 260 ple and the photomultiplier.
