Transition metal doped apatites as inert non-toxic pigments by Seah, Jasmine Si Han

“…Furthermore, the use of XAS and UV-Vis have suggested the presence of copper in the oxidation states of +1, +2 and +3 all existing in the compound. While it can be determined that the copper has an average oxidation state of +2, it is difficult to quantify the remaining copper ions and identify the reason for the range of oxidation states and will require further work. …”
