In spectroscopy: Applications
In extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (EXAFS), interference effects generated by near neighbours of an atom that has absorbed an X-ray, and the resulting oscillation frequencies, are analyzed so that distances to the near-neighbour atoms can be accurately determined. The technique is sensitive enough to…
