The In situ Correlative Facility for Advanced Energy Materials (InCAEM) is a new open-access research infrastructure that brings together complementary characterization techniques to study advanced energy materials under realistic operating conditions. Developed within the Spanish Complementary Plans Programme on Advanced Materials, InCAEM is a joint initiative of the ALBA Synchrotron, the...

FaXToR is the first hard X‑ray micro‑tomography beamline operating at the ALBA Synchrotron, designed to deliver fast, high‑flux, multi‑scale imaging across a broad energy range. Its architecture combines filtered white and monochromatic beam modes, enabling absorption, propagation‑based phase contrast, and grating interferometry. A versatile endstation with multiple detection systems supports...

Only a limited number of experimental techniques can provide detailed information about interfaces under relevant working conditions, including controlled pressure, temperature, electrical potential, illumination, in the presence of gas or liquid environments. Among these, photoelectron spectroscopy, surface X-ray diffraction, and X-ray scattering techniques are particularly valuable for...
