The concept of combining x-ray absorption spectroscopy with suitable temperature scanning techniques has been sporadically exploited for various research purposes whenever structural or electronic transformations take place in the sample as a function of T. Fixed (single) energy T-scanning techniques have been introduced about 10 years ago and their usefulness has been widely assessed. Not only they allow for a qualitative appreciation of the occurrence of a phase transition in a sample but they resulted a valuable source of information in the case of binary systems, in the presence of metastable states of matter, and for high pressure research.

Abstract
The concept of combining x-ray absorption spectroscopy with suitable temperature scanning techniques has been sporadically exploited for various research purposes whenever structural or electronic transformations take place in the sample as a function of T. Fixed (single) energy T-scanning techniques have been introduced about 10 years ago and their usefulness has been widely assessed. Not only they allow for a qualitative appreciation of the occurrence of a phase transition in a sample but they resulted a valuable source of information in the case of binary systems, in the presence of metastable states of matter, and for high pressure research.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
