Single-crystal X-ray determination, elemental analysis, and mass-spectroscopy are used for the characterisation of complexes and products. Cyclic voltammetry, EXAFS (Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure Spectroscopy), NMR, UV-vis spectroscopy, and IR can also be used to determine electronic properties of the ligands and their complexes [7],...

Mineral-liquid or mineral-gas interfaces under reactive conditions cannot be studied easily using standard UHV surface science methods. To overcome the pressure gap between ex situ UHV measurements and the in situ reactivity of surfaces under atmospheric pressure or in contact with a liquid, new approaches are required, some of which have only been introduced in the last 20 years, including scanning tunneling microscopy [28,29], atomic force microscopy [30,31], non-linear optical methods [32,33], synchrotron-based surface scattering [34—38], synchrotron-based X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy [39,40], X-ray standing wave... 

Macroscopic experiments allow determination of the capacitances, potentials, and binding constants by fitting titration data to a particular model of the surface complexation reaction [105,106,110-121] however, this approach does not allow direct microscopic determination of the inter-layer spacing or the dielectric constant in the inter-layer region. While discrimination between inner-sphere and outer-sphere sorption complexes may be presumed from macroscopic experiments [122,123], direct determination of the structure and nature of surface complexes and the structure of the diffuse layer is not possible by these methods alone [40,124]. Nor is it clear that ideas from the chemistry of isolated species in solution (e.g., outer-vs. inner-sphere complexes) are directly transferable to the surface layer or if additional short- to mid-range structural ordering is important. Instead, in situ (in the presence of bulk water) molecular-scale probes such as X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (XAFS) and X-ray standing wave (XSW) methods are needed to provide this information (see Section 3.4). To date, however, there have been very few molecular-scale experimental studies of the EDL at the metal oxide-aqueous solution interface (see, e.g., [125,126]).

Bulk processes can also be probed by an appropriate photon spectroscopy. For example, EXAFS provides an excellent spatial resolution with respect to the atomic surroundings. The information from Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure spectroscopy is contained in the oscillations of the X-ray absorption coefficient near an absorption edge e.g., the K- or L-edge).
