Electron nuclear double resonance spectroscopy instrumentation

The intent of this chapter is not to survey noninvasive surface spectroscopy but to illustrate briefly how it is applied to resolve the Stummian issue of whether inner-sphere surface complexes form. For this purpose, the application of electron spin resonance (ESR), electron nuclear double resonance (ENDOR), and electron spin echo envelope modulation (ESEEM) spectroscopies to elucidate metal cation speciation and the use of extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy to detect surface anion species will be described. Emphasis will be on the interpretation of spectra. Sample preparation and instrumentation details were reviewed in recent volumes edited by Hawthorne (55) and Perry (27). Because the constant capacitance model was developed in the context of adsorption by hydrous oxides, these...
