Description

Electronic excitations of Nb and Nb-O solid solutions are examined by electron-energy-loss spectroscopy using 250-keV electrons. Distinct differences are observed between Nb and Nb-O. It is found that oxygen in niobium changes the interband transitions and dampens the plasmon excitations
