NEXAFS imaging to characterize the physio-chemical composition of cuticle from African Flower Scarab Eudicella gralli
Biology serves as inspiration in materials development; this requires improved understanding of the surface chemistry responsible for processes which are being mimicked. Here, the authors report on the use of near edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) imaging to analyze the surface chemistry...
