Application of 61Ni Mössbauer spectroscopy to chemical problems

1996

Using the possibility to produce 61Co sources at the MAinz MIcrotron, 61Ni Mossbauer spectroscopy was applied to different kinds of chemical problems. Measurements of isomer shifts and V zz values in some common compounds and compounds with unusual chemical bonding for comparison with band structure calculations, measurement of 61Ni Mossbauer parameters in model compounds for hydrogenase and dehydrogenase with an active [NiS4] centre, and study of novel binary NiF3 compounds at helium temperature are presented.
