“…X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) of Ni K-edge (Figure 3a) and Co K-edge ( Figure 3b) suggest that the valence of Ni in CoP/NiCoP NTs is higher than that of Ni foil, but lower than that of NiCoP and NiO, and the valence of Co in CoP/NiCoP NTs is higher than that of CoP and NiCoP, but lower than that of CoO and Co 3 O 4 . [16] We also employed Fourier-transformed (FT) k 3 -weighted extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy, with R-space of Ni foil, NiO, Ni 2 P, Co Adv.
