[Ifeffit] Looking for raw data in InAs

Dear subscribers: If anyone could send me the raw absorption coefficient data in bulk InAs (As K-edge), it will be most sincerely appreciated. I could not find it in any online database.

Hi Dominik,

Thank you so much for your quick response. Indeed, it's really nice fitting according to your result. But my situation seems a little bit different as I'm dealing with the Mn XANES data and there're doublets and sometimes triplets in the pre-edge. Actually, I might as well explain my interest of doing such fitting. I read in the paper _(F Farges, PHYSICAL REVIEW B 71, 155109 (2005))_ that the centroid of pre-edge peak is a more accurate measurement of the oxidation state of the element of interest, compared to the more conventional inflection point or half-way method. So I was trying to follow the paper and see if it also works for my samples. Anyway, thanks again for your help!

Hi Scott Calvin,

Thanks for your help. Yes, this is as far as my pre- and post-edge range go. I realized I should have made them longer; it was my first time doing this and wasnt aware that i should lengthen my pre and post-edge for later on analysis. This will be good lesson for the future.

So you would not recommend doing linear combination fitting? I was planning on trying it out.. But I wouldnt want to do it if with my pre- and post-edge range, I am bound to derive wrong conclusions from the data.

Best, Marie
