This chapter contains articles on six techniques that provide structural information on surfaces, interfeces, and thin films. They use X rays (X-ray diffraction, XRD, and Extended X-ray Absorption Fine-Structure, EXAFS), electrons (Low-Energy Electron Diffraction, LEED, and Reflection High-Energy Electron Diffraction, RHEED), or X rays in and electrons out (Surfece Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure, SEXAFS, and X-ray Photoelectron Diffraction, XPD). In their usual form, XRD and EXAFS are bulk methods, since X rays probe many microns deep, whereas the other techniques are surfece sensitive. There are, however, ways to make XRD and EXAFS much more surfece sensitive. For EXAFS this converts the technique into SEXAFS, which can have submonolayer sensitivity. [Pg.193]

Alternatives to XRD include transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and diffraction, Low-Energy and Reflection High-Energy Electron Diffraction (LEED and RHEED), extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (EXAFS), and neutron diffraction. LEED and RHEED are limited to surfaces and do not probe the bulk of thin films. The elemental sensitivity in neutron diffraction is quite different from XRD, but neutron sources are much weaker than X-ray sources. Neutrons are, however, sensitive to magnetic moments. If adequately large specimens are available, neutron diffraction is a good alternative for low-Z materials and for materials where the magnetic structure is of interest. [Pg.199]

The discovery of the phenomenon that is now known as extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) was made in the 1920s, however, it wasn t until the 1970s that two developments set the foundation for the theory and practice of EXAFS measurements. The first was the demonstration of mathematical algorithms for the analysis of EXAFS data. The second was the advent of intense synchrotron radiation of X-ray wavelengths that immensely facilitated the acquisition of these data. During the past two decades, the use of EXAFS has become firmly established as a practical and powerfiil analytical capability for structure determination. ... [Pg.214]

EXAFS is part of the field of X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), in which a number of acronyms abound. An X-ray absorption spectrum contains EXAFS data as well as the X-ray absorption near-edge structure, XANES (alternatively called the near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure, NEXAFS). The combination of XANES (NEXAFS) and EXAFS is commonly referred to as X-ray absorption fine structure, or XAFS. In applications of EXAFS to surface science, the acronym SEXAFS, for surface-EXAFS, is used. The principles and analysis of EXAFS and SEXAFS are the same. See the article following this one for a discussion of SEXAFS and NEXAFS. [Pg.215]

The energy-dependent constructive and destructive interference of outgoing and backscattered photoelectrons at molybdenum produces the EXAFS peaks and valleys, respectively. The preedge and edge structures marked here are known together as X-ray absorption near edge structure, XANES and EXAFS are provided in a new compilation of literature entitled X-rsy Absorption Fine Structure (S.S.

The advantages of SEXAFS/NEXAFS can be negated by the inconvenience of having to travel to synchrotron radiation centers to perform the experiments. This has led to attempts to exploit EXAFS-Iike phenomena in laboratory-based techniques, especially using electron beams. Despite doubts over the theory there appears to be good experimental evidence that electron energy loss fine structure (EELFS) yields structural information in an identical manner to EXAFS. However, few EELFS experiments have been performed, and the technique appears to be more raxing than SEXAFS. [Pg.231]

Fine structure extending several hundred eV in kinetic energy below a CEELS peak, analogous to EXAFS, have been observed in REELS. Bond lengths of adsorbed species can be determined from Surface Electron Energy-Loss Fine Structure (SEELFS) using a modified EXAFS formalism. [Pg.328]

Br20 a dark-brown solid moderately stable at —60° (mp —17.5° with decomposition), prepared by reaction of Bt2 vapour on HgO (cf. CI2O p. 846) or better, by low-temperature vacuum decomposition of BrOa. The molecule has C2v symmetry in both the solid and vapour phase with Br-O 185 1pm and angle BrOBr 112 2° as determined by EXAFS (extended X-ray absorption fine structure). It oxidizes I2 to I2O5, benzene to 1,4-quinone, and yields OBr in alkaline solution. [Pg.850]

Since the fine structure observed is only associated with the particular absorption edge being studied, and the energy of the absorption edge is dependent on the element and its oxidation state, EXAFS examines the local structure around one particular element, and in some cases, an element in a given oxidation state. A fuller picture can therefore be obtained by studying more than one absorbing element in the sample. [Pg.140]

A detailed investigation of the structure of amorphous PcRu by large-angle X-ray scattering (LAXS)269 showed that in the solid state dimeric species exist with a Ru-Ru distance in the magnitude of a double bond. Current experiments using the extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) method confirm these results.279... [Pg.734]

Pandya et al. have used extended X-ray ascription fine structure (EXAFS) to study both cathodically deposited -Ni(OH)2 and chemically prepared / -Ni(OH)2 [44], Measurements were done at both 77 and 297 K. The results for / -Ni(OH)2 are in agreement with the neutron diffraction data [22]. In the case of -Ni(OH)2 they found a contraction in the first Ni-Ni bond distance in the basal plane. The value was 3.13A for / -Ni(OH)2 and 3.08A for a-Ni(OH)2. The fact that a similar significant contraction of 0.05A was seen at both 77 and 297K when using two reference compounds (NiO and / -Ni(OH)2) led them to conclude that the contraction was a real effect and not an artifact due to structural disorder. They speculate that the contraction may be due to hydrogen bonding of OH groups in the brucite planes with intercalated water molecules. These ex-situ results on a - Ni(OH)2 were compared with in-situ results in I mol L"1 KOH. In the ex-situ experiments the a - Ni(OH)2 was prepared electrochemi-cally, washed with water and dried in vac-... [Pg.141]

Extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) measurements based on the photoeffect caused by collision of an inner shell electron with an X-ray photon of sufficient energy may also be used. The spectrum, starting from the absorption edge, exhibits a sinusoidal fine structure caused by interferences between the outgoing and the backscattered waves of the photoelectron which is the product of the collision. Since the intensity of the backscattering decreases rapidly over the distances to the next neighbor atoms, information about the chemical surroundings of the excited atom can be deduced. [Pg.550]
