SPARTA: X-Spectrum develops a new high-speed AGIPD-based detector
SIX AND A HALF MILLION FRAMES PER SECOND – WITH THIS IMPRESSIVE FRAME RATE, SPARTA WILL BE AVAILABLE FROM MID 2021. THIS DEVELOPMENT IS MADE POSSIBLE BY THE SUPPORT OF THE INVESTITIONS- UND FÖRDERBANK HAMBURG. SPARTA is based on the AGIPD detector chips developed by a consortium led by DESY for the European X-ray laser […]
COVID-19 and X-Spectrum
The restrictions in public life to control the COVID-19 “Corona” pandemic also do not spare X-Spectrum GmbH. Most of us are currently in our home office, whenever possible. Nevertheless, the production of our LAMBDA detectors and the development of new camera systems continues at the usual rate. In doing so, we are observing all necessary […]
Explaining battery voltage fade
Lithium-rich layered oxides (LLROs) are promising cathode materials for better rechargeable batteries for electric vehicles. They are plagued by a phenomenon called voltage fade, however: When these batteries go through series of charge–discharge cycles, their voltage fades, and with it the amount of energy it can hold and later release for use. An international team […]
Active catalytic sites on platin nanocrystals
Catalysts based on metal nanoparticles play an important role in energy conversion and environmental technologies. Their high catalytic efficiency is attributed to their large surface-to-volume ratio and their high number of low-coordination sites, such as edges, which can decrease kinetic barriers between reactants. A key factor influencing the reactivity is the interaction between the reactants […]
