Notes:
An in situ cell suitable for transmission EXAFS measurements on catalytic samples is described. The cell can be used for catalyst pretreatments in various atmospheres (including H2, H2S, O2 and CO) in a temperature range upto 700 K. The sample is heated by conducting heat from an external heater to the sample. During measurement the samples can be cooled down to 77 K by conducting heat from the sample to an external liquid nitrogen container. During the pretreatment and the measurement a waterflow through the body of the cell keeps certain crucial parts from overheating or icing up. To avoid radiation leaks in powdery samples these samples are pressed in a selfsupporting wafer and held in a disk-shaped sampleholder. Tests by various catalytic groups have proven the suitability of the design.
