Advanced 2D XRF imaging of uranium oxidation states using HERFD at the U M₄ edge.

ABSTRACT: Uranium is found in various types of rocks. HERFD-XRF imaging at the U M₄ edge is a novel non-destructive technique that visualizes the distribution of U(IV), (V), and (VI) oxidation states at concentration levels ranging from ppm to wt%, offering unprecedented insights into uranium habitat and valence.
