>  We have recently been developing the application of magnetic contrast
> reflectometry to gold supported biomolecular films.  This method is especially
> applicable where deuteration of the component molecules is either intractable
> or prohibitively expensive.  The method takes advantage of the requirement to
> incorporate a binder layer between the gold and the silicon substrate. We
> replace the standard binders with a magnetic layer usually an Fe/Ni alloy.
>  When magnetised this layer presents a different scattering power to polarised
> neutrons.  We are therefore able to collect two datasets relative to an
> external reference from exactly the same sample.
>  
>  The meeting will outline the method, present results from a number of systems
> studied and explore future possibilities of this method.
