X-ray absorption spectroscopy

X-ray absorption spectroscopy

X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) is a versatile tool for chemistry, biology, and materials science. By probing how x rays are absorbed from core electrons of atoms in a sample, the technique can reveal the local structure around selected atoms.

Proposed new ANSTO waste facility

The independent nuclear regulator, ARPANSA, is currently accepting submissions about ANSTO’s planned $59.8 million Intermediate Level Solid Waste Storage Facility.

You are what you eat

Cracking the code for crop nutrition and food quality with X-ray fluorescence microscopy.

Gas and vapour delivery

Gas and vapour delivery

Several of our instruments are capable of incorporating gas or vapour delivery to the sample under investigation.

X-ray fluorescence microscopy

X-ray fluorescence microscopy

The X-ray fluorescence microspectroscopy beamline offers a range of x-ray absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy techniques at submicron length-scales. The beamline has two microscopes optimised for complementary studies.

Flexible, printable X-ray detectors

Low-cost X-ray detectors featuring high sensitivity, durability and physical flexibility are required in fields ranging from medical imaging to defence. In this study, a new material for X-ray detection was coupled with inkjet printing to produce a series of prototype X-ray detectors.

Australia charges ahead with new Lithium Technology

Scientists at ANSTO together with Lithium Australia Limited (LIT) have developed a world-first technology to extract more lithium from lithium mining waste, in a game-changer for Australian lithium industry. 

ANSTO welcomes new Board Chair

ANSTO is pleased to welcome The Hon Dr Annabelle Bennett AO SC as the new ANSTO Board Chairperson, following the announcement from the Minister for Industry, Science and Technology.
