Dilute EXAFS characterisation has been used to elucidate species involved during the course of the 3 mM Rh-catalysed hydroformylation of oct-1-ene in scCO(2); significant metal clustering occurs with a Rh:P ratio of 1:1 but at a 1:3 ratio, metal clustering is not detected, with the presence of monomer species only.

Iron-doped nickel oxyhydroxides, Ni(Fe)OH, are among the most promising oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts in alkaline environments. Although iron (Fe) significantly enhances the catalytic activity, there is still no clear consensus on whether Fe directly participates in the reaction or merely acts as a promoter. To elucidate the Fe's role, we performed X-ray spectroscopy studies supported by DFT on Ni(Fe)OH electrocatalysts.

Cu-modified zeolites provide methane conversion to methanol with high selectivity under mild conditions. The activity of different Cu-sites for methane transformation is still under discussion. Herein, ZSM-5 zeolite has been loaded with Cu cations (1.

Gilded wall paintings such as those in Petra-Jordan undergo deterioration processes such as delamination and loss of the gold layer. The aim of this work is to produce a functioning long-lasting adhesive that compensates for binder and gold loss while stabilising the gold layer. Polymer-stabilised gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as a conservation material for gilded heritage paintings (Nano Gold Gel (NGG)) were synthesised using two facile and affordable synthesis approaches.

The fact that the photoabsorption spectrum of a material contains information about the atomic structure, commonly understood in terms of multiple scattering theory, is the basis of the popular extended X-ray absorption spectroscopy (EXAFS) technique. How much of the same structural information is present in other complementary spectroscopic signals is not obvious. Here we use a machine learning approach to demonstrate that within theoretical models that accurately predict the EXAFS signal, the extended near-edge region does indeed contain the EXAFS-accessible structural information.

MgZnO possesses a tunable bandgap and can be prepared at relatively low temperatures, making it suitable for developing optoelectronic devices. MgZnO (~0.1) films were grown on sapphire by metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy under different substrate-growth temperatures of 350-650 °C and studied by multiple characterization technologies like X-ray diffraction (XRD), spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE), Raman scattering, extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS), and first-principle calculations.
