Niobium oxide (NbO) is a versatile semiconductor material with photochromic properties. This study investigates the local structure of noncrystalline, short-range-ordered niobium oxide synthesized via a sol-gel method. X-ray atomic pair distribution function analysis unravels the structural arrangements within the noncrystalline materials at a local scale.

- * Two synthesis methods, coprecipitation (CP) and wet impregnation (WI), create precursor solids, but CP shows a more uniform distribution of Ni, which is better for catalyst performance.
- * The activation process influences the size of Ni nanoparticles, with WI leading to larger particles that reduce catalytic efficiency, while CP yields smaller nanoparticles that are more favorable for enhanced catalytic activity.
