Dear Sirs
I am writing to you because we are not familiar with xanes. We took xanes spectra of both sample (synthesized by us and we think it as gamma-Mn2O3 ) and Mn3O4 (reference) to make sure that we synthesized gamma-Mn2O3 nanoparticles. The particle diameters ranged from 10 to 15 nm. By using XRD pattern, the structure of sample was determined to be tetragonal with lattice constants of a=5.79 A and c=9.4 A, similar to Mn3O4. From the XRD patterns, we can not distinguish between gamma-Mn2O3 and Mn3O4 because both show nearly identical XRD patterns (JACS 72, 856 (1950)).
We attached a data file. Could you please tell us whether the sample is gamma-Mn2O3 nanoparticles or not.
Sincerely,
