[Ifeffit] PdO reference

Hello! I've recently written an atoms input file for palladium (II) oxide (PdO) that fits well to some experimental data. Unfortunately, I do not have access to a PdO reference to validate the structure. We will probably run PdO on the same beamline in the near future, but until then it'd be nic

Re: [Ifeffit] AuPd CIF

I don't think the CIF can be described any way other than as fractional occupancy of the Au (or Pd) site, which ATOMS is not designed for. For Au L3 fitting of FCC alloys like this I would usually use ATOMS to make a FEFF input file for Au, substitute every scatterer in the FEFF input with Pd, and

Attaching the CIF would make it much easier to help. Is the CIF supposed to have partial occupancy? (In which case the old version would only work if it ignored one all but one partial occupancy site.) -Jason On Wed, May 23, 2012 at 6:33 PM, Matt Frith wrote: > I was attempting to import a .c

Since R_eff is constant, surely all you need to do is multiply R_eff by the uncertainty in alpha? That will be the uncertainty in delta_R and R_fit. The program is only giving you statistically-derived uncertainty for the values it fits; the user needs to determine how to propagate or otherwise d

Hi Qingyu, Each Mo absorber contributes to the spectrum equally, so if you think you have a good analysis that indicates x% of Mo scatterers are most similar to Li2MoO3 and 100-x% are most similar to MoO3, those are simply atomic percentages. All you have to do is convert the atomic% to mass% usi

It depends how you want to set up your guess-def-set parameters. For argument I'll describe a system of BCC Mo metal and MoO3, where you want to determine what fraction of Mo is in each. My usual method is just to set each path as N=1, SO2=amp_O for Mo-O, and N=1, SO2=amp_Mo for Mo-Mo. Then, in

I assume you mean you "can't assign a [variable] to N." It's a quirk of FEFF that the value of N for a path must be a number (perhaps even an integer?) but amplitude may be any number or a variable. For that reason it's typical (or at least common practice in my experience) to leave N as 1 and def
