AXSYS-nmTransmission NEXAFS

Saturation free and time resolved soft X-ray absorption on liquids and colloids for UE52-SGM

This instrument is dedicated to time-resolved and steady-state soft x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS/NEXAFS/XANES/EXAFS) in transmission on liquid samples and solids. The liquid sample is continuously refreshed in a flatjet system. The transmitted intensity of synchrotron radiation for ground state NEXAFS is measured with a gallium arsenide photodiode (average diode current is recorded). For static measurements, the full filling pattern of BESSY II is used. For time-resolved measurements, a MHz laser excites the sample and an avalanche photo diode detects the time-dependent signal.

Anwendungsbeispiele:
  • Photo-induced ligand substitution
  • Proton transfer - systematic investigations
  • Electronic structure changes upon UV excitation
  • Detection of excited states by photoabsorption
