Popis: Owing to the current energy crisis and extreme changes in the global climate, there is great interest in finding renewable energy resources. Vast progress has been made in the development of new materials related to renewable energy, and their physical/chemical properties can be tailored by nanostructuring and other advanced synthetic approaches. In many important energy systems, such as solar hydrogen systems, the atomic/electronic structures of materials and fundamental interfacial phenomena of systems critically determine the energy conversion efficiency of materials [1, 2]. Without knowledge of the fundamental electronic structures of the materials during conversion reactions, better engineering of the material for practical use is difficult. Understanding and controlling the interfaces in energy generation/conversion/storage materials requires in-situ/operando approaches [3, 4]. The Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) Soft X-ray Spectroscopic beamline provides the capabilities for X-ray absorption (XAS) and X...
