The use of quantum dots (QDs) is widespread and as such, the potential risk associated with their dispersion in the environment has stimulated research on their interaction with potential sensitive receptors.
In the present study, the redispersion behavior of Ag particles on ZSM-5 in the presence of coke was observed using in situ X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectroscopy.
In situ near edge X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy directly probes unoccupied states associated with backbonding interactions between the open metal site in a metal–organic framework and various small molecule guests.
