Electron Structure of Some Inorganic Azides from X-Ray Electron Spectroscopy.

摘要

The electronic structure of some inorganic azides has been investigated by x-ray electron spectroscopy for the purpose of contrasting the relative ionicities or degree of covalency of the alkali and heavy metal azides. Core and valence band electron spectra are presented along with deconvolutions of some of the overlapping bands. The observed trends indicate that the transition metal azides are considerably more covalent than the alkali or alkaline metal azides.
