Surface, structure and spectroscopy at bar (3Sbar) partial pressure beamline, is a hard X ray micro-spot beamline operated between 3 keV and 17 KeV that will perform core level ambient pressure photoelectron spectroscopy (APXPS) and Surface X ray diffraction (SXRD) at grazing incidence angles (~0.5º).
3Sbar beamline is currently under design in ALBA synchrotron and will be operated at a maximum ~3 bar local partial pressure (virtual cell operation), and maximum ~50 mbar total partial pressure (back-fill main chamber operation). The endstation will be also compatible with electrochemical experiments. 3Sbar will be a unique beamline aiming to provide fundamental understanding of a broad panel of surface science processes involving solid-solid, solid-liquid and solid-gas interfaces. This is a key aspect in many research topics as (but not only): batteries, catalysis, electrocatalysis, corrosion, sensors, atmospheric science, nitrogen fixation, 2D material fabrication, tribology, etc. Furthermore, 3Sbar beamline is the first beamline in ALBA designed for be fully operational in ALBA II (4th generation light source).
In this frame, a panel of experts in SXRD and NAPXPS were invited to participate in the earlier design state of the 3Sbar beamline, with the aim to identify experimental gaps that this new setup can help to close. These experts will give a short overview on the current and future state of these techniques as well as perspective with the challenges and opportunities.
We would like to invite you to participate in this seminar!
This beamline is funded by the Ministry of Science and Innovation through the European Recovery and Resilience Facility within the NextGenerationEU Programme.
