Darby Dyar, Molly McCanta, Elly Breves, C.J. Carey, Antonio Lanzirotti, Accurate predictions of iron redox state in silicate glasses: A multivariate approach using X-ray absorption spectroscopy, American Mineralogist, 101(3): 744–747, doi: https://doi.org/10.2138/am-2016-5555. XAS Spectra of Synthesized Glasses Individual Investigation 2018-02-10 2019-02-16 In this investigation, multivariate techniques were used to enable accurate X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS) measurements of Fe, Cr, Mn, and Ti ratios across the whole spectral region through creation of a broad suite of experimentally homogenized glasses of geological relevance for use as XAS standards. Iron, Cr, Mn, and Ti were analyzed as epoxy-mounted polished glass beads using XAS at the GeoSoilEnviroCARS beamline at the Advanced Photon Source, Argonne National Laboratory using a spot size of ca. 1x1 μm.
