Sulfur K‐edge XANES (X‐ray absorption near‐edge structure) spectroscopy is an excellent tool for determining the speciation of sulfur compounds in complex matrices. This paper presents a method to quantitatively determine the kinds of sulfur species in natural samples using internally calibrated reference spectra of model compounds. Owing to significant self‐absorption of formed fluorescence radiation in the sample itself the fluorescence signal displays a non‐linear correlation with the sulfur content over a wide concentration range. Self‐absorption is also a problem at low total absorption of the sample when the sulfur compounds are present as particles. The post‐edge intensity patterns of the sulfur K‐edge XANES spectra vary with the type of sulfur compound, with reducing sulfur compounds often having a higher post‐edge intensity than the oxidized forms. In dilute solutions (less than 0.3–0.5%) it is possible to use sulfur K‐edge XANES reference data for quantitative analysis of the contribution from different species. The results show that it is essential to use an internal calibration system when performing quantitative XANES analysis. Preparation of unknown samples must take both the total absorption and possible presence of self‐absorbing particles into consideration.  相似文献

A theoretical study of the X‐ray absorption near‐edge structure (XANES) spectra at the Mn K‐edge in the La1?xCaxMnO3 series is reported. The relationship between the edge shift, the Ca–La substitution and the distortion of the MnO6 octahedra in these systems has been studied. It is shown that, by correctly considering these effects simultaneously, the experimental XANES data are consistent with the presence of two different Mn local environments in the intermediate La1?xCaxMnO3 compounds. By taking into account the energy shift associated with the modification of the MnO6 distortion as Ca substitutes for La, it is possible to reproduce the XANES spectra of the intermediate‐doped compounds starting from the experimental spectra of the end‐members LaMnO3 and CaMnO3. These results point out the need to re‐examine the conclusions derived in the past from the simple analysis of the Mn K‐edge XANES edge‐shift in these materials. In particular, it is shown that the modification of the Mn K‐edge absorption through the La1?xCaxMnO3 series is well reproduced by considering the simultaneous presence of both distorted and undistorted octahedra and, consequently, that the existence of charge‐ordering phenomena cannot be ruled out from the XANES data.  相似文献

P K‐edge X‐ray absorption near‐edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy is a powerful method for analyzing the electronic structure of organic and inorganic phosphorus compounds. Like all XANES experiments, P K‐edge XANES requires well defined and readily accessible calibration standards for energy referencing so that spectra collected at different beamlines or under different conditions can be compared. This is especially true for ligand K‐edge X‐ray absorption spectroscopy, which has well established energy calibration standards for Cl (Cs2CuCl4) and S (Na2S2O3·5H2O), but not neighboring P. This paper presents a review of common P K‐edge XANES energy calibration standards and analysis of PPh4Br as a potential alternative. The P K‐edge XANES region of commercially available PPh4Br revealed a single, highly resolved pre‐edge feature with a maximum at 2146.96 eV. PPh4Br also showed no evidence of photodecomposition when repeatedly scanned over the course of several days. In contrast, we found that PPh3 rapidly decomposes under identical conditions. Density functional theory calculations performed on PPh3 and PPh4+ revealed large differences in the molecular orbital energies that were ascribed to differences in the phosphorus oxidation state (III versus V) and molecular charge (neutral versus +1). Time‐dependent density functional theory calculations corroborated the experimental data and allowed the spectral features to be assigned. The first pre‐edge feature in the P K‐edge XANES spectrum of PPh4Br was assigned to P 1s → P‐C π* transitions, whereas those at higher energy were P 1s → P‐C σ*. Overall, the analysis suggests that PPh4Br is an excellent alternative to other solid energy calibration standards commonly used in P K‐edge XANES experiments.  相似文献

The cluster calculations of K and L2,3 edge XANES of K and Cl in KCl within the multiple scattering theory formalism using nonlocal HF potentials with abd without consideration of core hole field were performed. For K spectra the influence of the core hole potential is rather weak and the results are similar to those obtained with Xα potentials. For L2,3 spectra, particularly for that of K+, core hole field leads to a radical redistribution of oscillator strength caused mainly by the spatial rearrangement of d like states. Calculated XANES curves show good over-all agreement with the experimental spectra (the L2,3 absorption of K+ in KCl was measured using the synchrotron radiation of the USSR Academy of Sciences storage ring VEPP-2M in Novosibirsk).  相似文献

X‐ray absorption near‐edge structure (XANES) of arsenate adsorption on TiO2 surfaces was calculated using self‐consistent multiple‐scattering methods, allowing a structural analysis of experimental spectra. A quantitative analysis of the effect of disorder revealed that the broadening and weakening of the characteristic absorption in experimental XANES was due to the structural disorder of the arsenate–TiO2 adsorption system. The success with calculating the scattering amplitude of a specific set of paths using the path expansion approach enables the scattering contributions of different coordination shells to the XANES to be sorted out. The results showed that the scattering resonances from high‐level shells inherently overlapped onto the first‐shell scattering amplitudes, and formed the fine structures in the XANES region. A variation in one oscillatory feature could be due to several structural changes affecting specific single/multiple‐scattering amplitudes. Therefore, direct assignments of spectral features with structural elements should be based on adequate theoretical analysis.  相似文献

A series of Ni dithiolene complexes Ni[S2C2(CF3)]2n (n = ?2, ?1, 0) ( 1 , 2 , 3 ) and a 1‐hexene adduct Ni[S2C2(CF3)2]2(C6H12) ( 4 ) have been examined by Ni K‐edge X‐ray absorption near‐edge structure (XANES) and extended X‐ray absorption fine‐structure (EXAFS) spectroscopies. Ni XANES for 1 – 3 reveals clear pre‐edge features and approximately +0.7 eV shift in the Ni K‐edge position for `one‐electron' oxidation. EXAFS simulation shows that the Ni—S bond distances for 1 , 2 and 3 (2.11–2.16 Å) are within the typical values for square planar complexes and decrease by ~0.022 Å for each `one‐electron' oxidation. The changes in Ni K‐edge energy positions and Ni—S distances are consistent with the `non‐innocent' character of the dithiolene ligand. The Ni—C interactions at ~3.0 Å are analyzed and the multiple‐scattering parameters are also determined, leading to a better simulation for the overall EXAFS spectra. The 1‐hexene adduct 4 presents no pre‐edge feature, and its Ni K‐edge position shifts by ?0.8 eV in comparison with its starting dithiolene complex 3 . Consistently, EXAFS also showed that the Ni—S distances in 4 elongate by ~0.046 Å in comparison with 3 . The evidence confirms that the neutral complex is `reduced' upon addition of olefin, presumably by olefin donating the π‐electron density to the LUMO of 3 as suggested by UV/visible spectroscopy in the literature.  相似文献

This work reports an X‐ray absorption near‐edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy study at the Ni K‐edge in the early stages of growth of NiO on non‐ordered SiO2, Al2O3 and MgO thin films substrates. Two different coverages of NiO on the substrates have been studied. The analysis of the XANES region shows that for high coverages (80 Eq‐ML) the spectra are similar to that of bulk NiO, being identical for all substrates. In contrast, for low coverages (1 Eq‐ML) the spectra differ from that of large coverages indicating that the local order around Ni is limited to the first two coordination shells. In addition, the results also suggest the formation of cross‐linking bonds Ni—O—M (M = Si, Al, Mg) at the interface.  相似文献

Synchrotron‐based X‐ray absorption near‐edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy is becoming an increasingly used tool for the element speciation in complex samples. For phosphorus (P) almost all XANES measurements have been carried out at the K‐edge. The small number of distinctive features at the P K‐edge makes in some cases the identification of different P forms difficult or impossible. As indicated by a few previous studies, the P L2,3‐edge spectra were richer in spectral features than those of the P K‐edge. However, experimentally consistent spectra of a wide range of reference compounds have not been published so far. In this study a library of spectral features is presented for a number of mineral P, organic P and P‐bearing minerals for fingerprinting identification. Furthermore, the effect of radiation damage is shown for three compounds and measures are proposed to reduce it. The spectra library provided lays a basis for the identification of individual P forms in samples of unknown composition for a variety of scientific areas.  相似文献

The effects of varying LiPF6 salt concentration and the presence of lithium bis(oxalate)borate additive on the electronic structure of commonly used lithium‐ion battery electrolyte solvents (ethylene carbonate–dimethyl carbonate and propylene carbonate) have been investigated. X‐ray Raman scattering spectroscopy (a non‐resonant inelastic X‐ray scattering method) was utilized together with a closed‐circle flow cell. Carbon and oxygen K‐edges provide characteristic information on the electronic structure of the electrolyte solutions, which are sensitive to local chemistry. Higher Li+ ion concentration in the solvent manifests itself as a blue‐shift of both the π* feature in the carbon edge and the carbonyl π* feature in the oxygen edge. While these oxygen K‐edge results agree with previous soft X‐ray absorption studies on LiBF4 salt concentration in propylene carbonate, carbon K‐edge spectra reveal a shift in energy, which can be explained with differing ionic conductivities of the electrolyte solutions.  相似文献

To clarify the mechanism of the observed room‐temperature ferromagnetism (RTF), many studies have been focused on dilute magnetic semiconductor systems. Several investigations have demonstrated that oxygen vacancies play a significant role in mediating the RTF behavior so that much effort has been devoted to confirm their presence. In this investigation, X‐ray absorption spectroscopy was combined with ab initio calculations of the electronic structure of Co and Zn in the Zn0.9Co0.1O system before and after annealing, which has been recognized as an effective method of originating oxygen vacancies. A feature at about 20 eV after the rising edge of the Co K‐edge XANES that disappears after annealing has been associated with the presence of an oxygen vacancy located in the second shell surrounding the Co atom. Moreover, Zn K‐edge XANES spectra point out that this oxygen vacancy affects the electronic structure near the Fermi level, in agreement with density functional theory calculations.  相似文献

Polarization‐dependent damping of the fine structure in the Cu K‐edge spectrum of creatinium tetrachlorocuprate [(creat)2CuCl4] in the X‐ray absorption near‐edge structure (XANES) region is shown to be due to atomic vibrations. These vibrations can be separated into two groups, depending on whether the respective atoms belong to the same molecular block; individual molecular blocks can be treated as semi‐rigid entities while the mutual positions of these blocks are subject to large mean relative displacements. The effect of vibrations can be efficiently included in XANES calculations by using the same formula as for static systems but with a modified free‐electron propagator which accounts for fluctuations in interatomic distances.  相似文献

X‐ray absorption and scattering spectroscopies involving the 3d transition‐metal K‐ and L‐edges have a long history in studying inorganic and bioinorganic molecules. However, there have been very few studies using the M‐edges, which are below 100 eV. Synchrotron‐based X‐ray sources can have higher energy resolution at M‐edges. M‐edge X‐ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and resonant inelastic X‐ray scattering (RIXS) could therefore provide complementary information to K‐ and L‐edge spectroscopies. In this study, M2,3‐edge XAS on several Co, Ni and Cu complexes are measured and their spectral information, such as chemical shifts and covalency effects, are analyzed and discussed. In addition, M2,3‐edge RIXS on NiO, NiF2 and two other covalent complexes have been performed and different dd transition patterns have been observed. Although still preliminary, this work on 3d metal complexes demonstrates the potential to use M‐edge XAS and RIXS on more complicated 3d metal complexes in the future. The potential for using high‐sensitivity and high‐resolution superconducting tunnel junction X‐ray detectors below 100 eV is also illustrated and discussed.  相似文献

Tc L3‐edge XANES spectra have been collected on powder samples of SrTcO3 (octahedral Tc4+) and NH4TcO4 (tetrahedral Tc7+) immobilized in an epoxy resin. Features in the Tc L3‐edge XANES spectra are compared with the pre‐edge feature of the Tc K‐edge as well as other 4d transition metal L3‐edges. Evidence of crystal field splitting is obvious in the Tc L3‐edge, which is sensitive to the coordination number and oxidation state of the Tc cation. The Tc L3 absorption edge energy difference between SrTcO3 (Tc4+) and NH4TcO4 (Tc7+) shows that the energy shift at the Tc L3‐edge is an effective tool for studying changes in the oxidation states of technetium compounds. The Tc L3‐edge spectra are compared with those obtained from Mo and Ru oxide standards with various oxidation states and coordination environments. Most importantly, fitting the Tc L3‐edge to component peaks can provide direct evidence of crystal field splitting that cannot be obtained from the Tc K‐edge.  相似文献

We report for the first time a systematic study of X-ray absorption structures 20–30eV above the LIII edge (XANES) of homogeneous mixed valent (SmB6, YbAl2, CePd3...) and trivalent reference Rare-Earth compounds (e.g. GdB6, LaAl2, NdPd3). The XANES of integral valent compounds in simple structures (NaCl, AuCu3...), which is due to multiple scattering of the photoelectron on the neighbouring atomic shells, is characterized by a single peak. On the contrary the XANES of mixed-valent materials presents a splitted structure which replicates the edge structures. We interpret this splitting as a direct evidence for the existence of two threshold energies and corresponding presumably to two different Rare-Earth metal distances in agreement with 4f fluctuations. Finally, we shall propose a consistent picture for core hole spectroscopies (LIII edge, XANES, EXAFS and XPS) in mixed-valent materials.  相似文献

An X‐ray Raman spectrometer for studies of local structures in minerals is discussed. Contrary to widely adopted back‐scattering spectrometers using ≤10 keV X‐rays, a spectrometer utilizing ~20 keV X‐rays and a bent Laue analyzer is proposed. The 20 keV photons penetrate mineral samples much more deeply than 10 keV photons, so that high intensity is obtained owing to an enhancement of the scattering volume. Furthermore, a bent Laue analyzer provides a wide band‐pass and a high reflectivity, leading to a much enhanced integrated intensity. A prototype spectrometer has been constructed and performance tests carried out. The oxygen K‐edge in SiO2 glass and crystal (α‐quartz) has been measured with energy resolutions of 4 eV (EXAFS mode) and 1.3 eV (XANES mode). Unlike methods previously adopted, it is proposed to determine the pre‐edge curve based on a theoretical Compton profile and a Monte Carlo multiple‐scattering simulation before extracting EXAFS features. It is shown that the obtained EXAFS features are reproduced fairly well by a cluster model with a minimal set of fitting parameters. The spectrometer and the data processing proposed here are readily applicable to high‐pressure studies.  相似文献

Time‐resolved X‐ray absorption spectroscopy (TR‐XAS), based on the laser‐pump/X‐ray‐probe method, is powerful in capturing the change of the geometrical and electronic structure of the absorbing atom upon excitation. TR‐XAS data analysis is generally performed on the laser‐on minus laser‐off difference spectrum. Here, a new analysis scheme is presented for the TR‐XAS difference fitting in both the extended X‐ray absorption fine‐structure (EXAFS) and the X‐ray absorption near‐edge structure (XANES) regions. R‐space EXAFS difference fitting could quickly provide the main quantitative structure change of the first shell. The XANES fitting part introduces a global non‐derivative optimization algorithm and optimizes the local structure change in a flexible way where both the core XAS calculation package and the search method in the fitting shell are changeable. The scheme was applied to the TR‐XAS difference analysis of Fe(phen)3 spin crossover complex and yielded reliable distance change and excitation population.  相似文献

The low energy features of XANES (X-ray absorption near edge structure) in the X-rayK-absorption edge of transition metal systems have long been detected and attempts have been made to explain their origin. Only recently have some theoretical approaches based upon multiple scattering (MS) effects been applied in explaining the shape of theK-edge features. But the pre-edge shoulder, often labelled asB, has hitherto defied satisfactory explanation for its origin. The present work is an attempt in explaining the possible origin of this feature by using MS-theory to theK-edge XANES of some first row transition metal systems. The calculated energies using MS-formalism were found to be closer to the experimentally observed values for some systems of cobalt and copper. Using these results, theK-edge featuresA,B,C have been assigned to be originating from the resonance effects of scattering of the ejected photo-electron with the molecular potential set up by the central absorbing atom and its near neighbours.  相似文献

Obtaining structural information of uranyl species at an atomic/molecular scale is a critical step to control and predict their physical and chemical properties. To obtain such information, experimental and theoretical L3‐edge X‐ray absorption near‐edge structure (XANES) spectra of uranium were studied systematically for uranyl complexes. It was demonstrated that the bond lengths (R) in the uranyl species and relative energy positions (ΔE) of the XANES were determined as follows: ΔE1 = 168.3/R(U—Oax)2 ? 38.5 (for the axial plane) and ΔE2 = 428.4/R(U—Oeq)2 ? 37.1 (for the equatorial plane). These formulae could be used to directly extract the distances between the uranium absorber and oxygen ligand atoms in the axial and equatorial planes of uranyl ions based on the U L3‐edge XANES experimental data. In addition, the relative weights were estimated for each configuration derived from the water molecule and nitrate ligand based on the obtained average equatorial coordination bond lengths in a series of uranyl nitrate complexes with progressively varied nitrate concentrations. Results obtained from XANES analysis were identical to that from extended X‐ray absorption fine‐structure (EXAFS) analysis. XANES analysis is applicable to ubiquitous uranyl–ligand complexes, such as the uranyl–carbonate complex. Most importantly, the XANES research method could be extended to low‐concentration uranyl systems, as indicated by the results of the uranyl–amidoximate complex (~40 p.p.m. uranium). Quantitative XANES analysis, a reliable and straightforward method, provides a simplified approach applied to the structural chemistry of actinides.  相似文献

Direct speciation of soil phosphorus (P) by linear combination fitting (LCF) of P K‐edge XANES spectra requires a standard set of spectra representing all major P species supposed to be present in the investigated soil. Here, available spectra of free‐ and cation‐bound inositol hexakisphosphate (IHP), representing organic P, and of Fe, Al and Ca phosphate minerals are supplemented with spectra of adsorbed P binding forms. First, various soil constituents assumed to be potentially relevant for P sorption were compared with respect to their retention efficiency for orthophosphate and IHP at P levels typical for soils. Then, P K‐edge XANES spectra for orthophosphate and IHP retained by the most relevant constituents were acquired. The spectra were compared with each other as well as with spectra of Ca, Al or Fe orthophosphate and IHP precipitates. Orthophosphate and IHP were retained particularly efficiently by ferrihydrite, boehmite, Al‐saturated montmorillonite and Al‐saturated soil organic matter (SOM), but far less efficiently by hematite, Ca‐saturated montmorillonite and Ca‐saturated SOM. P retention by dolomite was negligible. Calcite retained a large portion of the applied IHP, but no orthophosphate. The respective P K‐edge XANES spectra of orthophosphate and IHP adsorbed to ferrihydrite, boehmite, Al‐saturated montmorillonite and Al‐saturated SOM differ from each other. They also are different from the spectra of amorphous FePO4, amorphous or crystalline AlPO4, Ca phosphates and free IHP. Inclusion of reference spectra of orthophosphate as well as IHP adsorbed to P‐retaining soil minerals in addition to spectra of free or cation‐bound IHP, AlPO4, FePO4 and Ca phosphate minerals in linear combination fitting exercises results in improved fit quality and a more realistic soil P speciation. A standard set of P K‐edge XANES spectra of the most relevant adsorbed P binding forms in soils is presented.  相似文献

X‐ray absorption spectra calculated within an effective one‐electron approach have to be broadened to account for the finite lifetime of the core hole. For methods based on Green's function this can be achieved either by adding a small imaginary part to the energy or by convoluting the spectra on the real axis with a Lorentzian. By analyzing the Fe K‐ and L2,3‐edge spectra it is demonstrated that these procedures lead to identical results only for energies higher than a few core‐level widths above the absorption edge. For energies close to the edge, spurious spectral features may appear if too much weight is put on broadening via the imaginary energy component. Special care should be taken for dichroic spectra at edges which comprise several exchange‐split core levels, such as the L3‐edge of 3d transition metals.  相似文献
