Winner: 2023 Analytical Science Horizon Prize: Sir George Stokes Prize
The XRD-CT Pioneers
For the development and application of X-ray diffraction computed tomography to image and identify structure-activity relationships within functional materials and devices.
Finden Ltd, a British scientific consultancy, has achieved significant advancements in X-ray diffraction computed tomography (XRD-CT) and related chemical imaging methods like pair distribution function computed tomography (PDF-CT) or multimodal-CT through collaborations with academic and industrial partners. Most recently, Finden has driven the development of XRD-CT to the point where high-quality data can be generated for a variety of functional materials under operational conditions.
