Synchrotron Radiation Applied Materials Science Lab
Machine-translated · View original
The lab uses synchrotron radiation X-rays to examine what goes on inside materials.
AboutAbout the lab
Seeing inside materials with synchrotron radiation.
The Tabuchi Lab conducts research on measurement using synchrotron radiation, particularly the XAFS method and its measurement techniques.
XAFS examines the fine oscillations that appear in how X-rays are absorbed. The position of the absorption edge, where absorption increases sharply in a step-like manner, reveals which elements a sample contains.
The lab is affiliated with the Synchrotron Radiation Research Center at Nagoya University, and also explores research and measurement possibilities that make use of the Aichi Synchrotron Radiation Center in Seto City.
Since 2021, it has taken part in research and education as a research group of the Department of Materials Science, Graduate School of Engineering.
Key terms
- Synchrotron radiation
- Very bright light and X-rays emitted when electrons traveling at nearly the speed of light are bent. It is produced at large accelerator facilities
- XAFS (X-ray absorption fine structure) spectroscopy
- A method that measures X-ray absorption while gradually changing the X-ray energy, and investigates the inside of a material from the fine oscillations in the resulting spectrum
- Absorption edge
- The energy at which X-ray absorption suddenly rises in a step-like manner. It is specific to each element
ResearchResearch themes
The lab pursues materials science research that applies synchrotron radiation, as well as research on applying synchrotron radiation to materials science. Its research centers in particular on applications of the XAFS method.
