Local structure around Mn atoms in (MnS) 2 x (CuInS 2 ) 1– x alloys for x ≤ 0.09 has been determined using near‐edge and extended X‐ray absorption fine structure (XANES and EXAFS) measured at the Mn K‐edge. We found that for the Mn concentration up to 9 at% Mn atoms substitute preferentially for indium in the chalcopyrite lattice. The Mn–S bond length is 2.43 ± 0.015 Å, and is about 2% shorter than the In–S bond length. (© 2006 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
