Professor Liu Shoujie reported on the development of Anhui Absorption Spectroscopy Instrument Equipment Co., Ltd. Since its establishment in May 2022, the company has successively launched RapidXAFS series X-ray absorption spectrometers such as RapidXAFS 1M, RapidXAFS 2M, RapidXAFS HE, etc. The products cover the energy range of 2 keV-25 keV, meeting the scientific research needs of a wide range of users. After more than two years of innovative development, it has grown into the second largest enterprise in the global market share of desktop XAFS spectrometers. Anhui Absorption Spectroscopy adheres to a technology oriented approach and is committed to innovation. As the leading unit, it has undertaken national key research and development plans and Anhui Province's science and technology innovation projects. This year, it successfully developed a dual beam desktop XAFS spectrometer in collaboration with the University of Science and Technology of China, achieving breakthrough dual element testing and high collection efficiency acquisition of X-ray absorption spectra. In line with the development philosophy of focusing on scientific research and serving scientific research, Anhui Absorption Spectroscopy Instrument Co., Ltd. is open for testing to all scientific research users. Since its establishment, we have provided testing services for over 10000 samples to more than 400 universities and research institutes, covering samples with high, medium, low, and even elemental content as low as a few tens of thousands. As of the time of publication, more than 150 articles have been published, with a growth rate of 30 articles per month.

Anhui Absorption Spectroscopy has always adhered to the original intention of making professional XAFS equipment, helping researchers achieve XAFS freedom. At the end of the seminar, Professor Liu Shoujie once again stated that the mission of Anhui Absorption Spectroscopy is to do its utmost to serve every XAFS researcher. With profound technical strength and the support of thousands of scientific research users, Anhui Absorption Spectroscopy is determined to do a good job in "making professional XAFS equipment", moving forward with determination and without stopping.
