X-ray spectroscopic techniques rely on the element-specificity of inner-shell photoexcitation/ionization to probe electronic densities with atomic-site precision. The ...

Researchers developed an AI-guided method that dramatically speeds up a widely used X-ray technique known as X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy. It does so with far less risk of ...

An international team has made a breakthrough at BESSY II. For the first time, they succeeded in investigating electronic states of a transition metal in detail and drawing reliable conclusions on ...

What is X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS)? X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS) is a powerful analytical technique that probes the local atomic and electronic structure of materials by measuring the ...

X-ray spectroscopy measurements that previously needed to be done at a synchrotron facility could become available to a broader audience thanks to a new tabletop system (Anal. Chem. 2022, DOI: 10.1021 ...

Herein, the O K-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) profile of an aqueous acetonitrile solution presented a distinct sharp peak not commonly observed in the corresponding profile of liquid water.

XES is an element-specific method primarily used to analyze the partially occupied electronic structure of materials. The technique is one of the photon-in-photon-out spectroscopies in which an ...

The many-body interaction of charges (electrons) and nuclei (phonons) plays a critical role in determining the properties and functionalities of molecules and solids. The exact correlated motion of ...

X-ray crystallography and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy are two techniques used to study atomic structures. The main difference between these tools is that X-ray crystallography uses X ...
