The achievement comes from Arizona State University’s X-Beams laboratory in the US. US scientists produced the fastest X-ray pulses ever generated by a compact X-ray instrument, and captured ultrafast changes in a quantum material. The team used X-ray pulses to…
Recently, a team of material scientists led by Rongfei Wei from Zhejiang Normal University, China, first reported a Ce3+-doped glass scintillator with excellent X-ray excited luminescence (XEL) and high quantum efficiency. This work advances Frenkel defect engineering in amorphous scintillators…
An international research team from Germany, Switzerland and Japan has demonstrated in their recent work that a single reflection zone plate (RZP) can perform both soft X-ray imaging and resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) mapping. The approach could simplify future…
Rigaku Corporation, a group company of Rigaku Holdings Corporation and a global solutions partner in X-ray analytical instrumentation, will introduce the DicifferX™ Microarea Edition at JASIS 2026. This X-ray diffractometer enables materials characterization of microareas only a few tens of micrometers…
Rigaku Corporation, a group company of Rigaku Holdings and a global solutions partner for X-ray analytical systems, has launched Qualana, a micro-XRF spectrometer capable of elemental analysis in areas as small as 20 µm. X-rays can be directed at the sample…
The facility will be fully automated, equipped with artificial intelligence (AI) brainpower and robotic workers. Imagine walking into a lab where robots are conducting careful experiments. They are assisting researchers in the discovery of metal alloys that can snap back…
Experiments that run themselves and improve from AI input sound too good to be true, but researchers at Tohoku University found a way to turn this into reality image: Schematic illustration of the automated experimental system. Heat treatment, XRD structural…
Detection Technology, the Finnish X-ray detector maker listed in Helsinki, announced AVA Zero on 20 October 2026, a dual-energy line detector for entry-level urban security systems. The company said the product is designed to help scanner manufacturers lower system costs while keeping…
