Mössbauer Spectroscopy
- Mössbauer spectroscopy (MS) is based on resonant emission and absorption of gamma rays
- MS is used to study various sample types (including both nano-sized objects and bulk materials) with specific nuclei
- MS gives both physical and chemical structure information
- MS is extremely precise, non-destructive analysis technique
- MS is capable to analyze samples with low-concentration of specific nuclei
- MS is limited on solid samples only (frozen liquids are also suitable)
- Radioactive source is required for MS
