In the realm of Nanotechnology, understanding the local atomic structure is crucial for tailoring the properties of nanomaterials. Nanomaterials often exhibit unique properties that differ significantly from their bulk counterparts due to their high surface area to volume ratio and quantum effects. EXAFS provides insights into the atomic-scale structure and bonding environment of these materials, which is essential for designing and optimizing nanomaterials for specific applications such as catalysis, drug delivery, and energy storage.
