The Ka,, 2 , KO1, 3 , KO,, and KP" emission spectra of vanadium in the element and several V(III), V(IV), and V(V) compounds have been measured with a two-crystal X-ray spectrometer. The Kal and KP1,3 peaks shift slightly to lower energies with increasing the oxidation state of vanadium atom and the K& peak shifts to higher energies with it. An approximately linear relationship between Kal width and Kal / K a 2 intensity ratio can be used for identification of vanadium oxidation state.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
