X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) has wide ranging element-selective chemical sensitivity to characterize valence, spin-state, ligand bonds, and more. New developments in laboratory XES instrumentation enable routine sample testing. In conjunction with laboratory X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), the laboratory XES systems are finding wide ranging applications in environmental science, energy storage, and more.
In this session, we will highlight laboratory XES capabilities in two energy regimes: hard X-ray (4.5-20 keV) and tender X-ray (2-5 keV). Across these regimes, element-selective capabilities enable analysis of 3rd row transition metals, sulfur, phosphorus, and more. Join to learn more about the wide ranging capabilities and applications of X-ray emission spectroscopy.
