In the upcoming fall, my research group plans on performing XAS studies observing the Hf L3-edge for various Hf-Al intermetallic samples.

In preparation for the experiments, I am looking for CIF files of the various Hf-Al intermetallic systems, including HfAl3, HfAl2, Hf4Al3, etc.

Upon scavenging through a multitude of crystallographic databases, I was not able to find any CIF files of Hf-Al intermetallics. However, I have acquired powder diffraction files (PDF) for said intermetallics.

Seeing as how PDFs cannot be used in Artemis for EXAFS data analysis (to my knowledge), is there a way to convert PDFs into CIFs? I have attached one of the PDF files to demonstrate what information it contains.

I would really appreciate your help!
