In this contribution to the Special Issue honoring 100 very successful years of Casale SA, we
review and critically discuss the current status of modeling the most demanding selective …

Despite a century of research, our understanding of cement dissolution and precipitation
processes at early ages is very limited. This is due to the lack of methods that can image …

Some mollusc shells are formed from an amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) compound,
which further transforms into a crystalline material. The transformation mechanism is not fully …

Lithium–Sulfur batteries are rechargeable batteries that have attracted much attention in
recent years because of their large theoretical capacity and the low cost of sulfur. However …

Materials, when sintered at high temperatures, undergo structural changes on multiple,
hierarchical length scales but getting realtime information on these changes is difficult. To …

X-ray spectroptychography is an emerging method for the chemical microanalysis of
advanced nanomaterials such as catalysts and batteries. This method builds upon …

In this article, we demonstrate the viability of highly monochromatic full-field X-ray absorption
near edge structure based tomography using a laboratory-scale Johann-type X-ray …

The loss of platinum group metals during the industrial Ostwald process for catalytic
ammonia oxidation is a century-old concern. Understanding catalyst degradation requires …

As a variant of the coherent X-ray diffraction imaging (CDI) method, ptychography provides
an ultrahigh resolution of sub-10 nm for extended samples through iterative phasing of …

The spectroscopic ptychography method, a technique combining X-ray ptychography
imaging and X-ray absorption spectroscopy, is one of the most promising and powerful tools …
