Synchrotron X-ray Probes for Mesoscale Materials Science
Scope
The emergent property of materials originates in mesoscale complexity and the feature of structures and dynamics in the range from nanometer to micrometer is a common interest in materials research. For examples, the coercivity of permanent magnets depends on defects and grain boundaries in mesoscales, the ion conduction in battery electrode is dominated by the mesoscale mixture of constituent materials, and the progress of steel fractures is influenced by their mesoscale origin. Recent developments in synchrotron x-ray optics and methods allow for observing the mesoscale structures and dynamics in materials under in-situ and operando conditions.
This symposium aims to bring together researchers from materials science and synchrotron x-ray science and to promote synergistic collaborations between the two fields. The scope of symposium encompasses the breadth of current synchrotron x-ray probes for mesoscale materials science, including scanning x-ray nanoprobes, x-ray microscopes, coherent diffractive imaging, ptychography, x-ray photon correlation spectroscopy, and others.
