| The paper gives recent applications of EXAFS to the structural study of microcrystalline bimetallic particles. Special attention has been paid to the case of systems composed of neighbouring elements. Also it is shown how the use of X-ray diffraction techniques and surface science methods like ion scattering can be indispensable to interpret the EXAFS data correctly. In catalysis and surface science, experiments performed in total reflection mode can provide a detailed description of the adsorption site of atoms on a flat surface. |
