Abstract

During the last ten years extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) and related X-ray absorption methods have proved to be powerful tools to characterize catalytic materials. Two reasons can be invoked. First, it is simultaneously a spectroscopic and a stuctural probe. Compared to diffraction, it has the unique advantage that one can know around which atom the local order is determined. Second, it has a high sensitivity, largely ascribable to the considerable photon flux of the modern synchrotrons. Among the properties of EXAFS which makes it useful for the study of catalysts are:
