The XRD method is used to identify crystalline structures. MOF is a porous complex structure of crystalline and amorphous regions, and therefore its XRD depends on many factors and is so diverse.
X-ray absorption analysis X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectra significantly expand the information about the local atomic and electronic structure of materials obtained by other methods (electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and optical spectroscopy).
