Notes:
The Piezo-QEXAFS technique is a novel tool for time-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy in the hard X-ray range. Monochromator components consisting of specialized tilt stages to perform fast energy scans, lightweight crystal holders, bending mechanics, and control electronics are being installed and commissioned. It is planned to perform fast EXAFS scans with time resolution in the millisecond range. With Piezo-QEXAFS all typical X-ray absorption experiments will be possible as it retains the standard linear geometry. The achieved time resolution opens interesting insights into the dynamics of phase transitions and chemical reactions.
