(Left to right) Anibal Boscoboinik, Yixin Xu, Shruti Sharma, Alejandro Boscoboinik, and Dario Stacchiola with the ambient-pressure x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (AP-XPS) instrument at the Center for Functional Nanomaterials. The team used this lab-based AP-XPS instrument to characterize silica (silicon and oxygen) nanocages deposited on thin films of ruthenium metal and to test treatments designed to activate the samples for noble gas trapping. Then, using the synchrotron-based AP-XPS instrument at the National Synchrotron Light Source II, they performed experiments to see whether the nanocages would effectively trap xenon. Team members not pictured: Matheus Dorneles de Mello, Chen Zhou, Burcu Karagoz, Ashley Head, Zubin Darbari, Iradwikanari Waluyo, Adrian Hunt, Sergio Manzi, and Victor Pereyra.
