The magnetic exciton of EuS revealed by resonant inelastic x-ray scattering
Lucia Amidani, Jonas J. Joos, Pieter Glatzel +1
We report the valence-to-core resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) of EuS measured at the L3 edge of Eu. The obtained data reveal two sets of excitations: one set is composed…
Effect of carbon content on electronic structure of uranium carbides
S. M. Butorin, S. Bauters, L. Amidani +6
The electronic structure of UC (x=0.9, 1.0, 1.1, 2.0) was studied by means of x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) at the C edge and measurements in the high energy resoluti…
Understanding the size effects on the electronic structure of ThO2 nanoparticles
Lucia Amidani, Tatiana V. Plakhova, Anna Yu. Romanchuk +7
Developing characterization techniques and analysis methods adapted to the investigation of nanoparticles (NPs) is of fundamental importance considering the role of these materials…
The application of HEXS and HERFD XANES for accurate structural characterization of actinide nanomaterials: application to ThO2
Lucia Amidani, Gavin B. M. Vaughan, Tatiana V. Plakhova +7
Structural characterization of actinide nanoparticles (NPs) is of primary importance and hard to achieve, especially for non-homogeneous samples with NPs below 3 nm. By combining H…
The missing pieces of the PuO 2 nanoparticle puzzle
Evgeny Gerber, Anna Yu Romanchuk, Ivan Pidchenko +14
The nanoscience field often produces results more mystifying than any other discipline. It has been argued that changes in the plutonium dioxide (PuO2) particle size from bulk to n…
Eu: a suitable substituent for Pb in CsPbX perovskite nanocrystals?
Firoz Alam, K. David Wegner, Stephanie Pouget +4
Eu is used to replace toxic Pb in metal halide perovskite nanocrystals (NCs). The synthesis implies injection of cesium oleate into a solution of europium (II) bromid…
A multi-technique study of altered granitic rock from the Krunkelbach Valley uranium deposit, Southern Germany
Ivan Pidchenko, Stephen Bauters, Irina Sinenko +10
Herein, a multi-technique study was performed to reveal the elemental speciation and microphase composition in altered granitic rock collected from the Krunkelbach Valley uranium (…
New insights into the mechanism of graphene oxide and radionuclide interaction through vacancy defects
Anastasiia S. Kuzenkova, Anna Yu. Romanchuk, Alexander L. Trigub +8
The sorption of radionuclides by graphene oxides synthesized by different methods was studied through a combination of batch experiments with characterization by microscopic and sp…
