Abstract

We have demonstrated x-ray nanospectroscopy for two-dimensional nanomaterials with attogram (=10-18gram) weight samples. The x-ray nanospectroscopic characterization of the nanomaterials was performed using SPELEEM (Spectroscopic Photoemission and Low Energy Electron Microscopy) at BL17SU of the SPring-8 in Japan. For quantitative x-ray absorption spectroscopy analysis with high spatial resolution and high stability during the photon energy scan, we have implemented a sample drift correction and a uniform lighting correction by image analysis. Using these corrections, the x-ray absorption spectra from 80nm×80nm. area are significantly improved and the layer-dependent electronic structure analysis is also demonstrated.
