What Does ELNES Stand For?
ELNES stands for Electron Energy Loss Near Edge Structure
ELNES, or Electron Energy Loss Near Edge Structure, refers to a spectroscopy technique utilized to investigate the electronic and structural properties of materials at the atomic scale. By analyzing the energy loss of electrons as they interact with a sample, ELNES provides valuable insights into the local environment of specific atoms, including oxidation states, coordination geometries, and bonding characteristics. This technique is particularly useful in materials science, chemistry, and solid-state physics for characterizing complex materials and understanding their properties at the nanoscale.
