Development of High-Energy µ-X-ray Fluorescence and X-ray Absorption Fine Structure for the Distribution and Speciation of Rare Earth Elements in Natural Samples

Micro-X-ray fluorescence and X-ray absorption fine structure (µ-XRF-XAFS) is one of the most powerful tools to identify the distribution and speciation of trace elements in natural samples with µm spatial resolution. However, conventional µ-XRF-XAFS studies applied to rare earth elements (REEs: lant...
