XAFS technique is used to determine the atomic and electronic structures of NiP amorphous alloys with different P concentrations prepared by chemical reduction method. From the radial structural function (RSF) obtained from EXAFS, it is found that the amorphous alloys with P content less than 10 at.% still present strong peaks corresponding to high coordination shells just like crystalline Ni. This indicates the prominent existence of Ni‐rich phase with the fcc‐structure, which is not remarkably modified by the P atoms. As the P content is as large as 14 at.%, only the first shell peak in the RSF can be observed and the higher shell peaks disappear. Therefore the sample is totally amorphous. The XANES results show that as the P concentration is above 26 at.%, charge transfers from Ni atoms to P atoms. For P concentration lower than 20at.%, on the contrary, charge transfers from P atoms to Ni atoms, and 3d electron density of Ni atoms reaches the maximum when P concentration is about 14∼20 at.%.
