Beamline Information

 

The Spectroscopy Group operates three beamlines at the APS. Our primary techniques include X-ray Absorption and Emission Spectroscopy, which allow for the determination of the local atomic environment, oxidation state, and spin state of specific elements within complex samples under in-situ and operando conditions.

 

9-BM is a quick-scanning XAFS beamline capable of extended XAFS measurements in just a few seconds. It is optimized for low-energy measurements including P and S K-edges with a full in-situ and operando catalyst studies infrastructure.

20-BM beamline is primarily dedicated to XAFS with flexible capabilities for confocal imaging and micro-spectroscopy.

25-ID is a newly-commissioned canted insertion device beamline with two independently operated branches for Advanced Spectroscopy, and Time Resolved Research programs.
