X-ray absorption: principles, applications, techniques of EXAFS, SEXAFS, and XANES

Book ·
OSTI ID:6748791

This volume in the chemical analysis series takes one into the realm of local structure and bonding determined from the fine structure imposed on the atomic x-ray absorption edge by the presence of neighboring atoms. The growing availability of tunable monochromatic x-ray sources at national electron storage rings and the development of relatively high-flux laboratory sources have made this spectroscopy available to a community of chemists and physicists interested in applications rather than instrumentation. The editors objective is to introduce the novice to the theory, practice, and capabilities of modern x-ray absorption spectroscopy so that the reader can effectively plan, execute, and analyze the results of an experiment. To accomplish this, the editors have assembled a coherent collection of chapters by recognized experts in the field.
