The valence states of cations inside four high T c thallium superconductors have been investigated by X-ray absorption spectroscopy at thallium LIII , LI and copper K-edges. The thallium ions are observed on LIII and LI edges in the Tl(III) valence state (empty 6s levels) in spite of large Tl-O distances in the (a, b) plane of the structure as deduced from X-ray diffraction. The presence of two types of Tl-O distances have been well established on XANES spectra and the F.T. of EXAFS have shown the presence of two very short Tl-O bonds (2.03 Å). The copper K-edges are characterized by the absence of Cu(I) state (3d10 line).

The local environment of titanium in glasses of the system TiO2–BaO–ZnO–B2O3 was studied by x-ray absorption spectroscopy. In all glasses, for TiO2 content varying from 35 to 49 mol%, the titanium atoms are mainly fourfold coordinated network formers. For the glass with the highest titanium content, about 20% of the titanium enters into a sixfold environment, indicating the presence of precrystalline nuclei. These nuclei are responsible for the decrease of the optical performance of the glass above threshold titanium content, prior to any observable crystallization.

ABSTRACTA zirconolite glass-ceramic material is a candidate wasteform for immobilisation of chlorine contaminated plutonium residues, in which plutonium and chlorine are partitioned to the zirconolite and aluminosilicate glass phase, respectively. A preliminary investigation of chlorine speciation was undertaken by analysis of Cl K-edge X-ray Absorption Near Edge Spectroscopy (XANES), to understand the incorporation mechanism. Cl was found to be speciated as the Cl- anion within the glass phase, according to the characteristic chemical shift of the X-ray absorption edge. By comparison with Cl K-edge XANES data acquired from reference compounds, the local environment of the Cl- anion is most closely approximated by the mineral marialite, in which Cl is co-ordinate to 4 x Na and/or Ca atoms.

In the extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) study of the local environment of Bi3+ and Pb2+ ions incorporated in Ba4.5Nd9Ti18O54, actual sites of Bi- and Pb-incorporation are determined. Evidence is given that dopant ions are not distributed randomly on all theoretically possible sites; Bi3+ selectively enters one out of three possible channels, corresponding to the sites x = 0.9484, y = 0.2500, z = 0.2939, and/or x = 0.0455, y = 0.2500, z = 0.6928 previously occupied by Nd3+, while Pb2+ selectively enters site x = 0.4940, y = 0.2500, and z = 0.4993 previously shared by Ba2+ and Nd3+.
