Hi Mike:

How are you trying to fit it? It looks to me like the post edge line is not in the right place. You need to tune it by hand when you have such a short energy range after the edge since the normalization is critically dependent on how you set this line.

Hi All,


Does anyone have advice for LCF of spectra with a small edge step?

I've recently found myself with more and more issues fitting spectra like the 
one shown in the attached photo, where the spectrum is of good quality, but the 
fits end up not working out due to normalization (as far as I can tell).

Sadly, I have so far ended up just throwing these fits out, but I'm hoping 
there is a better solution out there that someone might be able to recommend.

One solution is "get more of the element of interest," as a beamline scientist 
recently told me. I'm just reluctant to really load it up in the data collection, because 
at 2 keV I get nervous about artifacts like self-absorption.

Is there a better way? What am I missing?

Thanks for your thoughts,



Mike
