Imagine needing a giant, billion-euro facility just to see the tiny details of a new battery material. This project shrinks that massive machine down to a small device that fits on a desk. It lets researchers see exactly how atoms are behaving in a material without leaving their own lab.
High-performance material analysis currently requires access to billion-euro facilities with limited availability. This creates a bottleneck for industrial R&D in batteries, pharma, and green chemistry.
A self-sufficient tabletop device that provides high-energy-resolution X-ray spectroscopy (HERXS) capabilities in a lab setting.
If you are a battery manufacturer dealing with electrode degradation during cycling — this project developed a tabletop HERXS device that reveals the valence state and local coordination of core atoms. This allows for precise performance determination and quality control without needing a synchrotron.
If you are a pharma lab dealing with the need for greener catalysts for active agents — this project developed a lab-scale analytical tool that follows reaction routes. It helps you understand formulation mechanisms and the mode of action of molecules more efficiently.
If you are a waste management firm dealing with nuclear waste or water treatment efficiency — this project developed a self-sufficient X-ray solution that analyzes molecular structures. This boosts the performance of treatment processes through better material understanding.
Based on available project data, the technology replaces the need for large-scale facilities that cost €1BN, offering instead a self-sufficient tabletop solution.
Yes, the objective is to move high-energy-resolution X-ray spectroscopies from restricted large-scale facilities to a lab-size, tabletop format for industrial R&D and QA processes.
Based on available project data, the project is led by an SME (LynXes Innovation Kutato Es Fejleszto Kft), but specific licensing terms are not provided.
The device is designed as a self-sufficient tabletop solution, meaning it can be placed directly in a standard lab environment rather than requiring a trip to a synchrotron.
The project period is from 2024-02-01 to 2026-01-31, suggesting the development phase concludes in early 2026.
The project is managed by a single Hungarian SME, LYNXES INNOVATION KUTATO ES FEJLESZTO KFT, with a 100% industry ratio. This lean structure suggests a direct focus on commercialization and rapid product development rather than academic research.
