Photoreduction Kinetics of Sodium Tetrachloroaurate under Synchrotron Soft X-ray Exposure

We report on the time evolution of the sodium tetrachloroaurate (NaAuCl4) chemical properties as a function of soft X-ray exposure in a dried sample on a silicon surface using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Our investigations provide mechanistic insight into the photoreduction kinetics from...
