Thanks Rob., Good thought, but definitively Cu++; we get the right energy shift and the right shape for XANES (linear Cu+ is very distinctive). We actually maintain nice oxidising conditions (4 bar of air applied to the capillary), and the spectra were stable over time (slew scan mode, with ~5 minutes per scan, and 10 scans collected).
Note that Cu+ is not stable in solution unless you give it a ligand such as chloride; reduction to Cu+ in our solution most likely would result in precipitation of Cu(0) via disproportionation. No evidence for this at all. > On 22 Apr 2023, at 12:14 pm, Robert Gordon <ragor...@alumni.sfu.ca> wrote: > > Hi Joel, > > How much edge shift are you seeing between your foil and the solution? > Cu+2 is about 4.5 eV up from Cu metal...you seeing about that much? > > Cu+2 can photoreduce...I know Cu+(aq) isn't stable, but maybe some complex is > forming? > Just a thought...CN=2 and I think linear Cu+ > > -R. > > On 2023-04-21 6:58 p.m., Joel Brugger wrote: >> Capillary is silica glass :-) >> >>> On 22 Apr 2023, at 11:57 am, Anatoly Frenkel >>> <anatoly.fren...@stonybrook.edu <mailto:anatoly.fren...@stonybrook.edu>> >>> wrote: >>> >>> Capillary made or what? >>> >>> Anatoly >>> >>>> On Apr 21, 2023, at 9:52 PM, Joel Brugger <joel.brug...@monash.edu >>>> <mailto:joel.brug...@monash.edu>> wrote: >>>> >>>> Fluo, 0.5 wt% Cu. >>>> >>>>> On 22 Apr 2023, at 11:41 am, Anatoly Frenkel >>>>> <anatoly.fren...@stonybrook.edu <mailto:anatoly.fren...@stonybrook.edu>> >>>>> wrote: >>>>> >>>>> Fluorescence or transmission? >>>>> What is the Cu concentration?
