“…While some manufacturers will remain focused on one or two applications, others seem to be moving in the direction of adding more and more functionality to individual instruments. As the demand for such systems grows, it is entirely possible we see an increase in the number of available add-ons to standard commercial instruments, for example Diffuse Reflectance UV-Vis (DRUVS), Attenuated Total Reflectance Infrared (ATR) and even traditionally synchrotron exclusive techniques such as Near-edge X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (NEXAFS) 392 as improvements to radiation sources and detectors are developed. The combination of these, in particular with the in operando capabilities of systems such as the lab-based NAP-XPS instruments -represents the potential for incredibly powerful analytical investigations to operate within the confines of even a small scale laboratory.…”

“…A different approach is to use laser driven X-ray sources, though they are typically limited to the soft X-ray energy range E < 500 eV. Their working principle is essentially that a very intense laser creates a plasma from various target materials, which then recombines under emission of X-rays, hence they are called Laser Plasma Source (LPS) or more specifically Laser Plasma X-ray Source (LPXS) [75][76][77][78][79]. One of the major advantages of a LPS is that a Laser can create well-defined pulses translating into pulses of X-rays which then enable time-resolved X-ray experiments.…”

X-ray spectroscopy is an important tool for scientific analysis. While the earliest demonstration experiments were realised in the laboratory, with the advent of synchrotron light sources most of the experiments shifted to large scale synchrotron facilities. In the recent past there is an increased interest to perform X-ray experiments also with in-house laboratory sources, to simplify access to X-ray absorption and X-ray emission spectroscopy, in particular for routine measurements. Here we summarise the recent developments and comment on the most representative example experiments in the field of in-house laboratory X-ray spectroscopy. We first give an introduction and some historic background on X-ray spectroscopy. This is followed by an overview of the detection techniques used for X-ray absorption and X-ray emission measurements. A short paragraph also puts related high energy resolution and resonant techniques into context, though they are not yet feasible in the laboratory. At the end of this section the opportunities using wavelength dispersive X-ray spectroscopy in the laboratory are discussed. Then we summarise the relevant details of the recent experimental laboratory setups split into two separate sections, one for the recent von Hamos setups, and one for the recent Johann/Johansson type setups. Following that, focussing on chemistry and catalysis, we then summarise some of the notable X-ray absorption and X-ray emission experiments and the results accomplished with in-house setups. In a third part we then discuss some applications of laboratory X-ray spectroscopy with a particular focus on chemistry and catalysis.

“…Due to the above arguments, several research groups have started work and put significant effort into the development of the laboratory measurement systems for NEXAFS analysis. Such solutions are based on X-ray lamps [ 5 , 6 ] or laser-plasma EUV and SXR radiation sources [ 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 ].…”

A near 1-keV photons from the Xe/He plasma produced by the interaction of laser beam with a double stream gas puff target were employed for studies of L absorption edges of period 4 transitional metals with atomic number Z from 26 to 30. The dual-channel, compact NEXAFS system was employed for the acquisition of the absorption spectra. L1–3 absorption edges of the samples were identified in transmission mode using broadband emission from the Xe/He plasma to show the applicability of such source and measurement system to the NEXAFS studies of the transition metals, including magnetic materials.
