Anatoly Frenkel: Machine learning – assisted analysis of material’s structure using XANES and EXAFS spectra
Tracking the structure of functional nanomaterials (e.g., metal catalysts) remains a challenge due to the paucity of experimental techniques that can provide atomic-level information for metal species in harsh conditions, […]
Lijia Liu: XEOL studies of Light-Emitting Materials
X-ray excited optical luminescence (XEOL) is a photon-in-photon-out process which monitors the visible luminescence emitted from materials upon X-ray excitation. Unlike using low energy excitation source such as UV, during […]
Sara Lafuerza: The chemical sensitivity of core-to-core XES in 3d transition metals
K-fluorescence X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) is receiving a growing interest in all branches of natural sciences to investigate the local spin in 3d transition metal complexes. Unlike the valence-to-core emission […]
Feng Lin: Ion Reactions to Modulate Solid-State Electrochemistry for Batteries and Electrocatalysis
Ion reactions offer a huge playground for tuning the electronic and crystal properties of inorganic solids for energy applications. Our research focuses on resolving a longstanding question in materials electrochemistry […]
Yuanyuan Li: Multimodal approach for determining the electronic and atomic structure of ceria supported Pt single atoms catalyst
Single atoms catalysts (SACs) have been heavily investigated in the recent years because of their good catalytic properties (especially activity and selectivity) for many chemical reactions . In addition to […]
Chris Glover: Australian XAFS: Past, present, and a Br-ght future
The Australian XAFS community started from small beginnings and currently, XAFS is one of the most oversubscribed techniques at the Australian Synchrotron. The community has been fostered by access to […]
Dooshaye Moonshiram: Electronic and Structural Configurations of Earth-Abundant Water Splitting Catalysts and Spin Crossover Complexes
The solar light-driven splitting of water for hydrogen fuel production is a promising alternative to fossil fuels due to their rapid depletion and concomitant environmental pollution. The design of light-driven […]
Wantana Klysubun: XAS capability and science at the Thailand synchrotron
100/year) and number of users' publications (> 60/year). Experiments can be done in transmission, fluorescence-yield and electron-yield modes. Additionally, in situ measurements are possible. To demonstrate XAS capability at SLRI, […]
Hao Yuan: Ptychography and 4D imaging by spectro-ptycho-tomography
Coherent X-ray scattering (diffraction) methods will be key to exploiting the high coherent flux of 4th generation synchrotron sources. Ptychography is a coherent diffraction technique that allows rapid, reliable inversion […]
Li Song: Soft X-ray endstaions at the Hefei Light Source and some applications of XAS
Hefei Light Source (HLS) is the first dedicated synchrotron radiation facility in China with electron ring energy of 0.8 Gev, which is located on the West Campus of the University […]
Matthew Marcus: Soft x-ray spectromicroscopy in extraterrestrial materials
Extraterrestrial materials such as meteorites and interplanetary dust particles are often very complex and non-uniform, with diverse species within a small sample. In some cases, especially for the products of […]
