Pt L2,3 - Edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy investigation of zerovalent [Pt(PPh3)2(η2-L)] {L = C2H4, C60 and C2(CN)4} compounds

High Energy Resolution Fluorescence Detection of the Pt L3,2-Edge Whitelines of Pt-Based Bimetallic Systems: Implications for the Pt 5d5/2,3/2 Density of States

“…Despite the uncertainties and methodologies, this approach to track the performance of the Pt catalyst in terms of the Pt L 3,2 -edge WL, and hence the 5d counts, has been qualitatively to semiquantitatively satisfactory when data were collected under the same experimental conditions and analyzed systematically. 14,15 In this work, we revisit this story and relating issues with advanced synchrotron techniques from a modern perspective. The advent of synchrotron techniques has now enabled the examination of the Pt 5d 5/2 , 3/2 DOS above the Fermi level in a much greater detail than ever before.…”

“…Still, another approach conducts a fitting of the rising edge with an arctan function. Despite the uncertainties and methodologies, this approach to track the performance of the Pt catalyst in terms of the Pt L 3,2 -edge WL, and hence the 5d counts, has been qualitatively to semi-quantitatively satisfactory when data were collected under the same experimental conditions and analyzed systematically. , …”
