X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF) is a powerful tool that reveals the hidden colors of chemical elements, changing our understanding of Nature. This technology is widely used in various fields, including industrial quality control, environmental analysis, and art conservation. A new advancement in XRF is x-ray color imaging, which captures images of chemical elements in the x-ray wavelength range. There are two techniques: scanning and projection. Projection-type x-ray color imaging is a breakthrough development that uses 2D semiconductor detectors, allowing real-time imaging and dynamic tracking of chemical reactions. This innovation has the potential to transform several scientific fields, allowing scientists to study complex systems and reactions in ways never before possible. This book explores the technology and applications of this new imaging technique. Part of IOP Series in Sensors and Sensor Systems. 1. The colors of the chemical elements -- 1.1.

Kenji Sakurai is an honorary researcher at the National Institute for Materials Science and a professor emeritus at the University of Tsukuba after his retirement in March 2020. Currently, he maintains a private laboratory, the Imaging Physics Laboratory, in Tokai, Ibaraki, near the nuclear reactor and large accelerator facility. His research interests include the development of new frontier analytical imaging methods and instrumentation using x-rays and neutrons (especially those used to solve problems related to surfaces and interfaces), as well as research on non-crystalline solids and some inorganic crystals. X-ray color imaging is one of the innovative works. Wenyang Zhao, born in 1993, received the degree of Doctor of Engineering in 2020 at Kenji Sakurai's lab at the University of Tsukuba. He is currently a postdoctoral researcher at RIKEN Center for Computational Science, Kobe, Japan. His research interests are in utilizing the power of high-performance computation to interpret experimental imaging data.
