abstract = {Nanostructured tungstates, such as CoWO$_{4}$ and
CuWO$_{4}$, are very promising catalytic materials,
particularly for photocatalytic oxidation of water. The high
catalytic activity of tungstate nanoparticles partially is a
result of their extremely small sizes, and, consequently,
high surface-to-volume ratio. Therefore their properties
depend strongly on the atomic structure, which differ
significantly from that of the bulk material. X-ray
absorption spectroscopy is a powerful technique to address
the challenging problem of the local structure determination
in nanomaterials. In order to fully exploit the structural
information contained in X-ray absorption spectra, in this
study we employ a novel evolutionary algorithm (EA) for the
interpretation of the Co and Cu K-edges as well as the W
L$_{3}$-edge extended X-ray absorption fine structure
(EXAFS) of nanosized CoWO$_{4}$ and CuWO$_{4}$. The combined
EA-EXAFS approach and simultaneous analysis of the W L$_{3}$
and Co(Cu) K-edge EXAFS spectra allowed us for the first
time to obtain a 3D structure model of the tungstate
nanoparticles and to explore in details the effect of size,
temperature and transition metal type.},
