Abstract:The Zn K-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy has been used to investigate in situ the decomposition of zinc peroxide (ZnO2) to zinc oxide (ZnO). Principal component and linear combination analyses of the EXAFS spectra have been employed to identify the phase composition of the oxide upon heating to 900 • C. Only the ZnO2 phase has been found up to 180 • C, whereas only the nanocrystalline ZnO phase has occurred above 250 • C. Detailed structural information on the temperature dependence of the local environment… Show more
