Phys. Rev. Lett. 94, 076104 (2005) [4 pages]Probing Outer-Sphere Adsorption of Aqueous Metal Complexes at the Oxide-Water Interface with Resonant Anomalous X-Ray ReflectivityReceived 10 September 2004; published 25 February 2005 Resonant anomalous x-ray reflectivity near the Pt LIII edge simultaneously revealed the geometric and spectroscopic structures of Pt(NH3)42+ ions adsorbed at the quartz(100)-water interface. The derived Pt geometric subprofile shows two discrete “outer-sphere” adsorbed layers, and the interface-specific x-ray absorption edge profile exhibits a significant white-line enhancement compared to the bulk-solution species. © 2005 The American Physical Society URL:
