Abstract: We have measured Metal K-edge X-ray absorption spectra (XAS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectra of transition-metal diborides (TiB2,VB2 and CrB2)We observed there are two weak pre-edge peak which may be separately due to hybridization between the 3d and 4p orbitals of the central metal atom and hybridization between the 3d orbitals of the cental metal atom and the coordinational metal atoms except two strong peaks in near-edge area.Moreover,we also simply fit the metal K-edge EXAFS spectra and got some structural parameters of the first and second shell of three transition metal absorption atoms.
