Suitability of total reflection X-ray fluorescence spectrometry for elemental speciation studies
Abstract
Total reflection X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (TXRF) has been shown to be applicable when determining different oxidation states in a variety of compounds by the method of Kβ/Kα intensity ratioing. It has also been shown that by using TXRF it is possible to relate shifts in the intensity ratio to coordination bonding.
