The lab develops highly sensitive on-site analysis using weak X-rays.
AboutAbout the lab
Simple, highly sensitive analysis, right on site
The Kunimura Lab studies X-ray analysis methods that use X-rays to investigate the elemental composition, crystal structure, and electronic state of materials.
Its main theme is the development of highly sensitive analytical methods using weak X-rays.
The goal is to lead to low-power, handheld analytical instruments that make it possible to perform on site analyses that would otherwise require large analytical equipment.
The lab also applies analytical methods using weak X-rays to environmental samples, food, and industrial materials.
Key terms
- X-ray analysis
- A method of using X-rays to investigate chemical information about a material, such as its elemental composition, crystal structure, and electronic state
- Weak X-rays
- Low-intensity X-rays. The lab uses them as a source that allows analytical instruments to be made smaller and lighter
- Pyroelectric crystals
- Crystals on whose surface an electric charge appears when the temperature changes. The lab works on improving the performance of X-ray sources with them
ResearchResearch themes
X-ray analysis can reveal chemical information such as elemental composition, crystal structure, and electronic state. The Kunimura Lab uses weak X-ray sources to achieve high sensitivity, aiming to develop low-power, portable, highly sensitive analytical instruments.
