Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have been challenging to observe atomic structure and electron density distribution of layered materials and other inorganic materials using synchrotron radiation X-ray diffraction. While we couldn’t report observation of electron density distribution of layered transition metal dichalcogenides and layered thermoelectric materials, we reported observation of accurate electron density distribution of the pure metal. We also observed detailed atomic structure of a layered material of which electric conductivity drastically increases with lattice expansion of a few %. In addition, we developed a hydrothermal reactor for in-situ synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction. Using the reactor, we obtained the diffraction data during hydrothermal synthesis of nanoparticles. We can apply the in-situ reactor to study of layered structure.
