Hi Otal, I ran a quick FEFF simulation just to see what is present under that second peak in the FT. There are many more shells than just TM and Na...e.g. There is significant multiple scattering and another backscattering peak (Fe-O) at 3.6Angstroms. All of these are going to spread underneath that peak in the FT. You might also be getting some interference from the 4.07A MS stuff. It doesn't seem a surprise that just including TM and Na is giving problems. What is your high-R cutoff? Have you tried including multiple-scattering or that 4th backscattering contribution? cheers, Robert On 2024-01-09 12:06 a.m., Otal Eugenio wrote:
Dear all, Happy New Year! I am dealing with the fitting of NaMn0.3Fe0.4Ni0.3O2 second shell. I have Mn, Ni, and Fe at 2.9772Å and Na at 3.1859Å, showing only one shell. If I use any of the transition metals (dZ <5) for fitting the second coordination shell. fitting is fine, but when I introduce the Na path, the fitting has no sense, CN_Na grows and also its error. Even including Na, I have Nvary = 10 and Ninp = 13.98, so I am getting out of ideas and nothing helpful in the ifeffit Archive until now. Is there any strategy for dealing with mixed second coordination shells? I am attaching the file exported from Larch and the cif file. Best regards.
