Better batteries, better solar cells, better electronics all depend on the control of surface chemistry. The UK is strong in surface chemical analysis, with two out of the three main suppliers of x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) machines in the world. However, sales have always been limited by the need for a skilled chemist to interpret the results, skills which are rare and expensive.Together with expert partners in UK universities we will apply a novel chemical treatment which, when combined with the latest AI methods, will make these machines useable by a much wider range of industries. Early results are very promising, and using the skills and equipment of our partners we can verify and demonstrate the effectiveness of the method across the board. This will benefit especially those in renewable energy fields like energy storage, solar panels and catalysts for green hydrogen production, but also increase added-value in a wide range of traditional industries where the UK is already strong.

更好的电池，更好的太阳能电池，更好的电子产品都取决于对表面化学的控制。英国在表面化学分析方面实力雄厚，在全球三大X射线光电子能谱仪（XPS）供应商中占据两席。然而，由于需要熟练的化学家来解释结果，销售一直受到限制，这种技能既罕见又昂贵。我们将与英国大学的专家合作伙伴一起应用一种新的化学处理方法，当与最新的人工智能方法相结合时，将使这些机器能够被更广泛的行业使用。早期结果非常有希望，利用我们合作伙伴的技能和设备，我们可以全面验证和展示该方法的有效性。这将特别有利于可再生能源领域的企业，如能源储存、太阳能电池板和绿色制氢催化剂，同时也增加了英国已经强大的一系列传统产业的附加值。
