EXAFS/XANES
This is a reminder that we have an Energy Materials Block Allocation Group at the Diamond Light Source and it has been renewed for two more years. This means we have access to B18 for one day every two months. B18 is a X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy beamline running quick EXAFS. This means good data from a 5 minute scan for powders, films and liquids. So in 24 hours we can run 50 samples. We can also assist with data analysis.
A simple application form is attached. The only restrictions are that we will only run straightforward XAS; not in situ, no special atmospheres, no heating cycles, etc. The aim is to run urgent samples that are exploratory or samples to complete data for a paper.
The BAG is running well and successfully. We have already run samples from Alistore (for Alfredsson, Bruce, Tarascon, Wilkening and Tirado groups) and produced high impact papers. Hence if you would like to use the BAG please fill in the proposal form.[PROPOSAL FORM]
