Atomic and nano-scale characterization of a 50-year-old hydrated C3S paste [PDF]
This paper investigates the atomic and nano-scale structures of a 50-year-old hydrated alite paste. Imaged by TEM, the outer product C-S-H fibers are composed of particles that are 1.5-2 nm thick and several tens of nanometers long.

Overview of nanoscale NEXAFS performed with soft X-ray microscopes
Today, in material science nanoscale structures are becoming more and more important. Not only for the further miniaturization of semiconductor devices like carbon nanotube based transistors, but also for newly developed efficient energy storage devices,

Phase transition of BiNb1−xMnxO4−δ: Thermal analyse, NEXAFS, XPS and ESR-study
The manganese-doped polymorphs of bismuth orthoniobate were studied using thermal analysis, ESR, XPS and NEXAFS spectroscopy. It was shown that the phase transition from the orthorhombic (α) to the triclinic (β) modification can be reversible and it can ...

A Nexafs Study of Nitric Oxide Layers Adsorbed from a nitrite Solution onto a Pt(111) Surface [PDF]
NO molecules adsorbed on a Pt(111) surface from dipping in an acidic nitrite solution are studied by near edge X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (NEXAFS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), low energy electron diffraction (LEED) and ...

Hole distribution for (Sr,Ca,Y,La)_14 Cu_24 O_41 ladder compounds studied by x-ray absorption spectroscopy [PDF]
The unoccupied electronic structure for the Sr_14Cu_24O_41 family of two-leg ladder compounds was investigated for different partial substitutions of Sr^2+ by Ca^2+, leaving the nominal hole count constant, and by Y^3+ or La^3+, reducing the nominal hole
