Key Points

This research aims to elucidate the mechanisms of alloy nanoparticle formation by directly observing their nucleation process in solution.
Developed a measurement system using time-resolved in situ x-ray diffraction (TR-XRD) at SPring-8's BL13XU beamline.
Focused on the synthesis process of ZIF-8 as a model reaction system under room temperature.
Tracked the nucleation and crystallization processes of nanoparticles with a time resolution of 5 seconds.
Successfully observed the emergence and increase of Bragg peaks from the ZIF-8 phase after mixing, indicating crystallization events.
Demonstrated an increase in crystallite size during the process, confirming the effectiveness of the TR-XRD system.

Observes nucleation process in alloy nanoparticles, suggesting innovative material design methods.
