HI, Matthew and Bruce and Carlo
As I want to fit a U L3-edge EXAFS spectrum using a crystal structure model of vorlanite (cubic CaUO4), I was not able to load the crystal structure data, with an error message of “could not input the data file because of partial occupancy”
or something like this. I believe that the reason is that Ca and U are on the same site (coordination), and they are completely disordered, it is like (Ca,U)O2, a CaF2 structure, and the occupancy for each of Ca and U is 0.5. Is there any way to handling of
such crystal structure data in Artemis? Please see the attached crystal data file in cif. Thank you so much for your instruction.
