Hi Disha,
The shift in bond distance in this case, is not necessarily associated
with the change of oxidation state. It can be simply caused by the
insertion/removal of Li/Na or whatever depending on your battery type
during the charge/discharge, which sometimes changes the oxidation state of
Mn slightly, sometimes doesn't.

Dear All
Firstly, I would like to say sorry if I have missed out on this discussion before but it would be great if you could help me out. I have been analyzing some Mn K-edge XAS data for some battery materials. While the XANES data shows no shift in the main absorption peak which means that there is no oxidation change happening, however, when I am fitting the data in Artemis, I can see a shift in the bond lengths suggesting an oxidation change. Is it possible that bond lengths change even though XANES spectra show no change?
Thank you and Kind Regards Disha
