Advanced X-Ray Technique Unveils Fast Solid-Gas Chemical Reaction Pathways
Short-lived intermediate phases in solid-gas reactions can be captured with high-speed time-resolved synchrotron X-ray diffraction technique, demonstrate Tokyo Tech researchers. Their observation of the redox reaction pathway for layered perovskite, a high-performance oxygen storage material, enable them to access reaction data within a time window of few hundred milliseconds, highlighting the potential of the technique for optimizing solid-gas reactions.
