Inverse Partial Fluorescence Yield Spectroscopy
(University of Waterloo, 2011-08-30)X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) is a powerful probe of electronic and spatial structure that has been at the heart of many advances in physics, biology, chemistry, engineering and the earth sciences. Unfortunately, the ... -
Metal Isotope Fractionation Associated with Cu and Zn Attenuation by Zero-Valent Iron in Anaerobic Flow-Through Cell Experiments
(University of Waterloo, 2018-01-12)Metal stable isotope fractionation is an emerging tool in the environmental sciences for studying biogeochemical pathways for cycling of metals in the environment. Copper and zinc are essential elements for many biological ... -
Modeling the X-ray absorption of Neodymium ions in cuprate superconductors
(University of Waterloo, 2022-07-18)Electronic nematicity, a breaking of the rotational symmetry of the electronic structure beyond what is expected from the ionic displacements of atoms, has been identified in the (La, M)₂CuO₄ family of the cuprate ...
