Description
Scanning X-ray microscope is now established and one of the key techniques found at the third generation synchrotron radiation facilities to tackle wide variety of studies in many fields such as microbiology, environmental sciences, medical and pharmaceutical sciences, and materials science. I08 Scanning X-ray Microscopy beamline (I08-SXM) is one of those facilities available worldwide, which covers the broadest soft x-ray photon energy range in the world to access all major K- and L-edges absorption for elemental and chemical analysis, combined with complementary imaging and spectroscopic techniques. Such multimodal detection is the strong point for the scanning regime contrast to the full-field.
I will show-case our capability and some examples from our user experiments including NEXAFS spectromicroscopy in different photon energy range, X-ray micro-fluorescence (XRF) elemental mapping, Ptychographic image reconstruction, (measurement under cryogenic specimen condition) and so forth. Recent upgrades at I08 will be discussed
