Status:

The aim of the project is to obtain information about the nanoscale distribution of the constituents in wood cell walls, such as cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. To reach our aim we will use a novel infrared microscopy technique (nano FTIR microscopy) with the unique ability to provide chemical information with a spatial resolution of 20 nm.
