The Change of L Edge of Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy of Ni in Ni-Based Solid-Solution Alloys

Article Preview

Abstract:

The electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) of Ni in a series of Ni-based solid-solution alloys and pure Ni has been collected. It is found that the distance between L2 and L3 peaks of Ni EELS is enlarged in all alloys relative to pure Ni. The d-electron occupancy of Ni in all alloys is measured from the white-line intensity of EELS and the results vary very small.
