Project Area BB6: Advanced X-Ray Spectroscopic Studies of Hetero- geneous Oxidation Catalysts
Ex situ and in situ advanced X-ray spectroscopic approaches will be utilized in Project B6 to characterize spinel-based oxidation catalysts. Using X-ray emission spectroscopy time-resolved element-specific changes in the electronic structure of a catalyst will be tracked.
