Focus Topic: New Trends in Structural Electronic Characterization of Materials, Interfaces, and Surfaces Using Synchrotron and FEL Based Light Sources (LS)

The increasing need for energy coupled with growing concerns about climate change is one of the greatest challenges of our society. Renewable energy is one of the solutions to replace fossil fuels, but sustainability imposes combination with efficient conversion and storage. Notwithstanding the vast R&D activities the technology has not reached the maturity to comprise the high-conversion and high-power range due to the fact that successful operation of solar cells and batteries is determined by numerous physical, chemical, electrical and thermal processes, occurring over wide spatial and temporal ranges. One of the most promising guides for solving technology problems is to understand the evolving device properties via in-situ and operando analyses and here the synchrotron and FEL-based methods have become indispensable tools to provide rational guidelines for technological breakthroughs. New insights into the governing processes that are crucial for development of engineering strategies for the next generation energy devices have been attained via operando synchrotron and FEL-based methods and will be presented by the selected speakers in the LS sessions.
