Description

The polarization dependence of the X-ray absorption near edge fine structure (XANES) and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectra for an uranium(VI) exchanged smectite clay sample is investigated. These studies are aimed at determining if linear uranyl cations (O=U=O2+) sorbed between smectite basal plane layers are oriented in a preferred direction either parallel or perpendicular to the layers.
