Real-Time Insights into Sustainable Materials: Correlative Electron Microscopy and Synchrotron Techniques

Colloquia Series on Sustainable Metallurgy
Catalytic materials are crucial for energy conversion technologies, and their optimization requires a deep understanding of their nanoscale structure and behavior. Techniques like ex-situ and in-situ TEM, combined with synchrotron-based methods such as XAS and XRD, enable detailed analysis of catalysts, revealing how atomic-scale changes impact their performance. This presentation discusses how these advanced characterization tools provide a comprehensive view of catalytic mechanisms. [more]

In situ structure-property relationship studies of inorganic catalysts for the energy transition

In situ structure-property relationship studies of inorganic catalysts for the energy transition
The energy transition requires the introduction of sustainable energy sources. Hydrogen is one of these options, but its efficient and sustainable production from water splitting as well as its storage is still a challenge. In order to understand the structure-property at different length scales, it is essential to combine complementary in situ/operando techniques with ex situ analysis. [more]
