Abstract

The X-ray absorption spectroscopy (EXAFS) technique has been used for studying the local environment of the metal in graphite intercalation compounds with transition metal dichlorides. For these compounds the octahedral environment of the cation is preserved after the intercalation process. A simulation of the first coordination shell with a two metal-ligand distance distribution enables the characterization of a strong distortion of the octahedra. The study of the radial distribution function around the metal atoms gives evidence of the existence of a second coordination shell.
