“…Wigglers and undulators (which are insertion devices [IDs] in third‐generation SR facilities) produce high‐energy radiations, and their distinguishing character is the difference in their wavelength. Wigglers demonstrate spectra similar to the ones acquired by bending magnets, whereas undulators provide an intense pseudomonochromatic light . Furthermore, the flux is distributed in a larger angle in the case of wigglers.…”

“…θ is equal to one half of the angle between the incident and scattered beams, n is an integer corresponding to the plane from which the beam is scattered, and λ is the wavelength of the incident light (Figure ). XRD spectrum is usually a plot of intensity at different scattering angles . Besides, the structure of the target material affects the XRD pattern.…”

Synchrotron radiation (SR), as a result of its high-intensity, brilliant, monochromatic, and collimated beams, is becoming one of the most crucial components of research in various fields of materials science such as nanomaterials, biomaterials, and energy materials. SR-based characterization methods can be employed to analyze different systems such as powders, thin films, and bulk forms having complex crystalline or amorphous structures. In this review, peculiarities of SR are briefly explained. Moreover, various techniques carried out utilizing this instrument for material characterization such as X-ray powder diffraction, grazing-incidence X-ray diffraction, small/ wide-angle X-ray scattering, X-ray absorption spectroscopy, different techniques of X-ray imaging, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and X-ray microprobes/nanoprobes are presented. As a result, by shedding light on the advantages of SR and its superiority to the equivalent laboratory experiments, researchers are recommended to exploit the capabilities of this invaluable tool in their materials characterization.

“…Its distinct properties are intense brightness, broadband spectrum, polarization, and pulsed nature [99][100][101]. e intense brightness (brilliance) enables the detection of small quantities of various chemical compositions with a betterquality signal-to-noise ratio, whereas the extremely collimated light allows high-resolution special mapping of the chemical distribution [102][103][104].…”

The study explores the nitty-gritty of infrared spectroscopy. Firstly, the review gives a concise history of infrared discovery and its location in the electromagnetic spectrum. Secondly, the infrared spectroscopy is reported for its mechanism, principles, sample preparation, and application for absence and presence of functional groups determination in both ligands and coordination compounds. Thirdly, it helps in purity determination of unknown samples. Additional studies regarding this study entail infrared spectroscopy-based synchrotron radiation. It serves as a giant microscope to give detailed information of samples under investigation compared to the conventional infrared instrument. Infrared will continue to be useful to both chemical and pharmaceutical industries, in order to make chemical products and manufactured drugs put on wholesome integrity.

“…On the basis of such data, it becomes possible to predict and evaluate their physical and mechanical properties [10,11]. Experimentally, such information can be obtained from in situ XRD measurements [12][13][14]. The vast majority of such studies are conducted using synchrotron radiation sources, due to high beam intensity, low divergence and a continuous spectrum in a wide range of photon energies [15][16][17][18].…”

In this work, a laboratory X-ray diffraction complex for in situ investigations of structural phase evolution of materials under gaseous atmosphere and elevated temperatures was developed. The approbation of the complex was carried out using a commercially pure titanium (CP-Ti) powder, zirconium (Zr-1Nb) alloy and electron beam melted Ti-6Al-4V alloy. It was established that hydrogenation of the CP-Ti powder occurred at a temperature of 500 °C and a hydrogen pressure of 0.5 atm, accompanied by the formation of metastable γ titanium hydride (γ-TiH) phase. The lifetime of the γ-TiH phase was 35–40 min. Decomposition of the γ-TiH occurred after reaching a temperature of 650 °C as a result of the thermally stimulated desorption of hydrogen. The α-Zr → δ-ZrH phase transformation was observed under hydrogenation of the zirconium Zr-1Nb alloy at a temperature of 350 °C and a hydrogen pressure of 0.5 atm. It was revealed that the increase in hydrogenation temperature to 450 °C accelerated this transformation by two times. Hydrogenation of the electron beam melted titanium Ti-6Al-4V alloy at a temperature of 650 °C and hydrogen pressure of 0.5 atm was accompanied by the α → α + β → β + α2 phase transformations.
