Re: [Ifeffit] Reported W L3-edge and L2-edge energy

Hello everyone, In my experience, it is best to stay away from sulfate which has a hugely intense peak subject to self absorption. At SSRL, we advice users to choose Sodium Thiosulfate with the low lying and sharp S-S sigma star peak at 2472.02 eV and Tetraphenyl phosphonium bromide at 2146.96 eV f

Re: [Ifeffit] about the k-range choice

Hi Shaofeng, Is there a reason not to use the highest k data? (You have really good data past k=14?). In general you should use as high of a k range as available unless the data are bad, compromised at high k and/or you want to compare to data of a certain k range. As you know, the shape of FT w

Re: [Ifeffit] Interpreting old XANES data with missing standards

Hi Don, I am sure you are aware but I would like to remind you that the sulfides that you are working with have serious potential for self absorption. Most spectra out there have different degrees of self absorption which can really mess up LCA type analysis. This is not a quick solution, but y

Hello Ifeffit users, We in the biomimetic community are having a heated discussion about the XAS (pre-edge and edge) data of Co(IV)=O molecular complexes. Turns out that there are very few bonafide complexes that can be used as a standard for Co(IV) and they are rather difficult to obtain. I wou

Hello Aditya, If I understand correctly, the nomenclature you are using is a little misleading. The sharp feature that you are referring to is a rising-edge feature and is not after the edge.
