FY and TEY map of layered Cultural Heritage samples

In this experiment we will collect XANES spectra con Lustered Ceramic samples at the Cu K-edge, the surface of the sample (few hundreds of nm) is naturally covered by metallic copper while the glaze underneath contains Cu oxides. After XANES measurements in FY and TEY to assess the presence of the two different compounds in the differente layers we will proceed collecting maps at slected energy to highlight the presence of Cu with different oxydation states i different region and layers of the samples.
