Popis: | The structure of the one-dimensional chains within Li2Mo6Se6 in propylene carbonate solution was investigated by means of extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy and compared to that of the crystalline M2Mo6Se6 (M = Li, In, Tl) phases. The Fourier-transformed Mo K-edge EXAFS displays three peaks at r' = 2.4, 3.5, and 4.2 A (r' = distance uncorrected for phase shift), while the Fourier-transformed Se K-edge EXAFS exhibits four peaks at 4' = 2.3, 3.5, 4.3, and 4.9 A. The Mo EXAFS was modeled with a theoretical single-electron single-scattering EXAFS equation using a total of five backscattering pairs, and the Se EXAFS was fit with a total of six backscattering pairs. The similarity of the solution- and solid-phase EXAFS spectra of Li2Mo6Se6 indicates that the bulk of the Mo and Se atoms in solution experience an environment indistinguishable from that within the solid phase; this is consistent with retention of, essentially, unaltered (Mo3Se3 )/sub infinity/ strands in solution. |
