The Raman Scattering of Actinide (VI) Ions in Carbonate Media

Abstract

Raman scattering of actinide (VI) ions from carbonate media were obtained. Results indicate bidentate complexation of carbonate and linear geometry for the AnO₂²⁺ ions. The trend of the frequency position of the ν₁ vibration in AnO₂²⁺ ions is U > Np > Pu > Am in both acid and basic solutions, with higher frequencies occurring in acid media.
