摘要: Abstract This work presents a structural study by X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS) and Electron Energy-Loss (EELS) of complex titanium oxynitride nanoparticles (Ti(O,N)), synthesized laser pyrolysis from tetraisopropoxide ammonia as precursors. Previous characterizations obtained XRD XPS have shown that the present TiO type face-centered cubic (FCC) structure but with three different oxidation degree for titanium. The synthesis this kind oxide or is very unusual. Moreover, their properties are highly dependent structure. EELS spectrum-imaging data were therefore used mapping chemical species. These measurements reveal composed FCC solid solution nitrogen oxygen in local around Ti was then studied. XANES show an absorption threshold corresponding to global valence state between 3+ 4+ , pre-edge characteristic mix disordered 2 whereas EXAFS signal dominated contribution Oxidative heat-treatments been performed 250 450 °C order follow transition towards dioxide phase. occurs surface nanoparticles.
