We review oxygen K-edge X-ray absorption spectra of both molecules and solids. We start
with an overview of the main experimental aspects of oxygen K-edge X-ray absorption …

This review presents an overview of the X-ray absorption spectra of 3d transition metals and
their compounds. The emphasis is on the description of the X-ray absorption process and …

The solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) that forms on Li-ion battery anodes is critical to their
long-term performance, however observing SEI formation processes at the buried electrode …

The oxygen 1s x-ray-absorption edges of a series of 3d-transition-metal oxides have been
measured. The structures at the edge arise from covalent mixing of the metal and oxygen …

Owing to their unique physical and chemical properties, transition metal compounds,
especially transition metal oxides, nitrides, carbides and sulfides, have been the subject of …

We present near edge X-ray absorption spectra of manganese oxides at the Mn L2, 3, Mn K,
and OK edges to investigate the relative sensitivity of the edges to bonding and structure …

1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. General Overview Nanomaterials are generally classified into
nanostructured materials and nanophase or nanoparticle materials, which form a bridge …

Oxygen K and manganese L 2, 3 edges electron-energy-loss spectra have been measured
for a series of manganese oxides with different nominal oxidation states for the cation (MnO …

Using oxygen K-edge x-ray-absorption spectroscopy we show that the holes compensating
the Li 1+ impurity charge in Li x Ni 1− x O are located primarily in the O 2 p states rather than …

The electron energy loss and X-ray absorption spectra of two phases of titanium dioxide-
rutile and anatase-are reported. Although the nearest-neighbour environments of titanium …
