Abstract

In the present work the electron energy-loss near-edge structures (ELNES) of γ- and δ-Al2O3, both based on f.c.c. packing of oxygen anions, was investigated. The spectra were interpreted in terms of the relative occupancy of tetra- and octahedrally coordinated sites within the oxygen sublattice. This relative occupancy was found to be similar for both structures.
