Double picks on Near Edge region.
To whom it may concern, Dear Prof.; Here have some questions about Zn doped LiNbO3 single crsystal EXAFS fitting problem, we did the similar EXAFS absorption spectra as you can see the attach reference paper Fig 7, that shows double picks on Near Edge region, and our questions are, (1) Base on your great knowledge, how comes about these two picks, and is it normal? (2) On Artemis program R-figure display, we can find a great pick appeared in 0~1 angstrom range (k range=1~12), but we find this pick disappeared under (k range=2~12) parameter choosing ,so is it relation to question (1)? (3) If we want to cut near edge contribution, how should we deal with these double picks? choose the rear EXAFS spectrum (aviod these two picks)? Or using Athena background removal it? Thanks for your time and helping. Pei-chang Tsai 2007/09/12 設定安全圖章,保護您的 Yahoo!奇摩帳號不被駭客盜用!

SDK> Hi Pei-chang, See below for some ideas. To whom it may concern, Bottom of Form Dear Prof.; Here have some questions about Zn doped LiNbO3 single crsystal EXAFS fitting problem, we did the similar EXAFS absorption spectra as you can see the attach reference paper Fig 7, that shows double picks on Near Edge region, and our questions are, (1) Base on your great knowledge, how comes about these two picks, and is it normal? SDK> I'm not sure what you are asking. It is common to find "decorations" in the region near the absorption edge of many elements. There are several different ways to think about the reason for the "decorations". One way is to think about the density of states that are available for the promotion of the 1s electron (K-edge). Another way to describe them is from long multiple scattering paths of the photoelectron. Near the edge the photoelectron has very little kinetic energy. This means that the mean-free path of the photoelectron (how far the photoelectron can travel without loosing coherence) is long, so that long multiple scattering paths can have a significant contribution. See http://www.xafs.org/Tutorials?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=Newville_xas_fundamentals.pdf I think that you would benefit from reading this tutorial. (2) On Artemis program R-figure display, we can find a great pick appeared in 0~1 angstrom range (k range=1~12), but we find this pick disappeared under (k range=2~12) parameter choosing ,so is it relation to question (1)? SDK> This is not uncommon. It is often difficult to remove the background properly from the low k-region of the EXAFS signal. Often K-min values of 2 or 3 are used. (3) If we want to cut near edge contribution, how should we deal with these double picks? choose the rear EXAFS spectrum (aviod these two picks)? Or using Athena background removal it? SKD> I'd use a k-range starting at 2. HTH Shelly
