Chemical State Visualization of Advanced Functional Materials by Advanced Synchrotoron X-ray Spectro-Microscope Measurements

Functional Materials used today, such as heterogeneous catalysts, have multi-components and non-uniform structures, where information of where and how the material functionalities work or degrade, are hidden by the poor spatial resolution of conventional spectroscopic characterization methods. If these non-uniform and hidden aspects became available, it will be a great help for innovations of further advanced functional material.
