Abstract
The Ce K-edge (40 keV) EXAFS of CeO2 was successfully measured by using Si(553) double crystal monochromator and the synchrotron radiation emitted from the Photon Factory wiggler. The energy resolution was estimated to be about 17 eV from the width of the Ce K-edge absorption edge. The distances of Ce-O and Ce-Ce were determined to be 2.28(3) g Å and 3.38(5) Å by using theoretically derived phase shifts. We demonstrated the possibility of elucidating structural parameters from K-edge EXAFS spectra of the atoms with the medium Z values (50 < Z < 60).
