Getting more from XPS imaging: multivariate analysis for spectromicroscopy
The spherical mirror analyser (SMA) is used to acquire fast XPS images from specimen surfaces with high lateral and energy resolution. Here we review the properties of the SMA including spatial and energy resolution and provide examples of the capabilities of such an imaging analyser. In the last few years the combination of the SMA with a two-dimensional, pulse counting electron detector has a...
متن کاملInvestigation of Bismuth Iodine as Light Absorbing Materials for Solar Cell Applications: From Synthesis to XPS Characterisation
During the last years perovskite materials have taken the photovoltaic community by storm, bringing promises of solar cells with efficiencies comparable to conventional silicon devices but at a lower price. However perovskite solar cells so far are facing two main obstacles, they are unstable in the presence of air, moisture and heat and they are usually toxic due to being based on lead-halide ...
متن کاملIntroduction of Soft X-Ray Spectromicroscopy as an Advanced Technique for Plant Biopolymers Research
Soft X-ray absorption spectroscopy coupled with nano-scale microscopy has been widely used in material science, environmental science, and physical sciences. In this work, the advantages of soft X-ray absorption spectromicroscopy for plant biopolymer research were demonstrated by determining the chemical sensitivity of the technique to identify common plant biopolymers and to map the distributi...
متن کاملA New Technique for Quality Assessment of Railway Ballast Materials
The influence of main quality tests on the overall quality of railway ballast materials is assessed in this study. The need to integrate all acceptance tests in a unified manner for precise evaluation of ballast quality is identified, and a technique of performing this is proposed. Using this approach, a new ballast quality index (BQI) is defined in which, the main acceptance tests including ab...
متن کاملSpectromicroscopy and coherent diffraction imaging: focus on energy materials applications.
Current and future capabilities of X-ray spectromicroscopy are discussed based on coherence-limited imaging methods which will benefit from the dramatic increase in brightness expected from a diffraction-limited storage ring (DLSR). The methods discussed include advanced coherent diffraction techniques and nanoprobe-based real-space imaging using Fresnel zone plates or other diffractive optics ...
