Molecular Structure of Solvates and Coordination Complexes in Solution as Determined with EXAFS and XANES

摘要: x-Ray absorption spectroscopy provides accurate information about the local structure around majority of elements in periodic table, either solid or liquid states, crystalline amorphous forms. This contribution describes application technique to determination several species solution. It includes a brief theoretical description photoabsorption phenomena, experimental setup, summary data analysis procedures, and examples applications, mainly aqua ions coordination complexes transition metal actinide cations.
