Meeting the long-felt need for in-depth information on one of the most advanced material characterization methods, a top team of editors and authors from highly prestigious facilities and institutions covers a range of synchrotron techniques that have proven useful for materials research.
Following an introduction to synchrotron radiation and its sources, the second part goes on to describe the various techniques that benefit from this especially bright light, including X-ray absorption, diffraction, scattering, imaging, and lithography. The thrid and final part provides an overview of the applications of synchrotron radiation in materials science.
bridging the gap between specialists in synchrotron research and material scientists, this is a unique and indispensable resource for academic and industrial researchers alike.

Zhentang Zhao is Professor of accelerator science and technology at the Shanghai Institute of Applied Physics (SINAP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). After receiving his PhD degree from Tsinghua University, Beijing, Zhentang Zhao worked on Beijing Electron and Positron Collider operation and its luminosity upgrades at CAS-Institute of High Energy Physics from 1990 to 1998. He joined the Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF) in 1998 and the faculty of SINAP in 2000. He was in charge of the SSRF accelerator design and construction as deputy project director from 1999 to 2009. He became director of SINAP in 2009 and director of SSRF in 2011. He has been involved in 5 projects on synchrotron light source and free electron laser facility as a leading staff.

Chunhai Fan is Professor and Chief of the Division of Physical Biology, and the Center of Bioimaging at the Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF), at the Shanghai Institute of Applied Physics (SINAP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). He also serves as an Associate Editor of ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces.He obtained his BSc and PhD degrees from the Department of Biochemistry at Nanjing University in 1996 and 2000. After his postdoctoral research at University of California, Santa Barbara, USA, he joined the faculty at SINAP in 2004. He is a fellow of Royal Society of Chemistry (FRSC) and an elected fellow of the International Society of Electrochemistry (ISE). His research interests are biosensors and bioimaging, biophotonics and DNA nanotechnology.
