In situ characterization of catalysts gives direct insight into the working state of the material. Here, the design and performance characteristics of a universal in situ synchrotron-compatible X-ray diffraction cell capable of operation at high temperature and high pressure, 1373 K, and 35 bar, respectively, are reported. Its performance is demonstrated by characterizing a cobalt-based catalyst used in a prototypical high-pressure catalytic reaction, the Fischer–Tropsch synthesis, using X-ray diffraction. Cobalt nanoparticles supported on silica were studied in situ during Fischer–Tropsch catalysis using syngas, H2 and CO, at 723 K and 20 bar. Post reaction, the Co nanoparticles were carburized at elevated pressure, demonstrating an increased rate of carburization compared with atmospheric studies.

ABSTRACTForward scattering of XPS and Auger electrons by atoms in a crystalline lattice produce beams of enhanced intensity radiating out from the surface at angles corresponding to the internuclear axes present in the top few atomic layers. This effect has been applied to analyze the mechanism of surface segregation in ultrathin metal films, to analyze the interdiffusion at the interfaces of ultrathin films, and to assess the effects of substrate contamination on the growth of epitaxial films. The systems studied in this work are Cu, Ni, and Co on Ni(100), however the purpose of this work is not to investigate these particular systems but to use them to illustrate the capabilities of forward scattering.

This study shows that forward scattering at the origin of reciprocal space contributes to the scattering intensity profiles of ultra-small-angle scattering. The forward scattering corresponds to a Fourier transform of the X-ray coherent volume on a sample. This contribution is usually ignored in the study of small-angle scattering, while it is fully considered in the fields of X-ray imaging, such as coherent X-ray diffraction imaging and X-ray ptychography. This effect is explicitly illustrated in the context of small-angle scattering, and the effect of a finite spatial coherence length on small-angle scattering is discussed.
