Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) has been used to study the local Ti environment in titania xerogel samples containing nanoparticles of different sizes. The xerogels were prepared by hydrolysis of titanium isopropoxide followed by peptization with HNO3 and size control was achieved through calcination in air at different temperatures. An amorphous precipitate obtained by hydrolysis of titanium isopropoxide prior to peptization with HNOj has also been studied. The X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) of the precipitate possesses a characteristic preedge that is dominated by a transition designated as A2 at 4970.7 eV, and assigned to five coordinate Ti. This A2 component is detected in all of the studied xerogels. Its intensity decreases as the surface-to-volume ratio of the titania particles decreases, suggesting that it is associated with surface layers of the anatase particles. Other changes observed in the XANES of the xerogels as a function of particle size include broadening of Is -np transitions in the postedge region. EXAFS shows that the smallest particles contain Ti in distorted coordination with contracted Ti-O bonds and probably reduced coordination number. © 1998 American Chemical Society.
