The water-soluble iridium(III) complexes [CpIr(PTA)Cl2] (1) and [CpIr(PTA)2Cl]Cl (2) (PTA = 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane) have been synthesised and characterised by spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. The complexes were evaluated as catalyst prec ...
We present a 5 m long spectrometer for soft x rays to be used at a synchrotron radiation beamline for resonant x-ray emission spectroscopy and resonant inelastic x-ray scattering in the 400-1600 eV energy range. It is based on a variable line spacing spher ...
1,1-Bi(endo,exo,syn-pentacyclo[3.3.3.02,4.06,8.09,11]undecyl)[1,1-bi(trishomobarrelenyl)] (4) has been prepared as a 1:1 mixture of its meso- and d,l-diastereomers in six steps from trishomobarrelene 1 via the amine 5, the N,N-bis(trishomobarrelenyl)sulfam ...
X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy is applied to Zr-based alloys ((Zr, x%Nb) with x ⩽ 1 wt.%) corroded in steam at 415 °C to resolve the niobium speciation in the metal and the oxide parts of their metal/oxide interface. By combining ...
Radiation damage in macromolecular crystals is not suppressed even at 90 K. This is particularly true for covalent bonds involving an anomalous scatterer (such as bromine) at the `peak wavelength'. It is shown that a series of absorption spectra recorded o ...
We exploited complementary synchrotron radiation spectroscopies to study the Yb 4f electronic configuration in three representative intermediate-valence materials: YbAl3, YbInCu4, and YbCu2Si2. High-resolution x-ray absorption (PFY-XAS), resonant inelastic ...
Polarized fluorescence spectra were recorded in the vicinity of the Se and Br K edges on crystals of the selenated protein aldose reductase in complex with a brominated inhibitor molecule. The X-ray absorption, refraction and resonant scattering tensors as ...
It is demonstrated that X-ray beam positions can be extracted from two-dimensional profiles with sub-pixel resolution. Beam-position measurements utilizing a self-designed low-cost two-dimensional detector have been performed at two synchrotron radiation b ...
This paper describes a new monochromator design for a bending magnet beamline of the Swiss Light Source synchrotron facility. The beamline optics is based on a horizontally deflecting spherical grating monochromator (SGM) with two gratings at a constant de ...
A review. Time-resolved X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectroscopy with picosecond temporal resoln. is a new method to observe electronic and geometric structures of short-lived reaction intermediates. It combines an intense femtosecond laser sour ...
