Synchrotron radiation offers several advantages for catalysis research:
High Intensity: The intense X-ray beams allow for the examination of very small samples, leading to more precise results. High Resolution: Achieving atomic or near-atomic resolution helps in understanding the exact structure of catalysts and their active sites. Time-resolved Studies: Dynamic processes can be studied in real time, aiding in the understanding of reaction mechanisms as they happen. Elemental Analysis: The ability to analyze specific elements within a sample helps in identifying the role of different components in a catalytic process.
