| Abstract: | X-ray absorption studies of the poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) complex NiBr2(PEO)8 show the formation of Br bridged dimers and higher aggregates. The Ni is complexed with Br and also with O atoms from the PEO. Aggregate formation increases with increasing temperature. In the case of ErBr3(PEO)12 the Er is simply complexed with Br and O. There is no evidence of aggregate formation. |
