Hi all, Thank you very much Scott for your not slow answer and sorry for my very slow one. I think my system is a little bit complicated. I have bimetallic catalysts (PtSn) and I did fits supposing two different structures but I do not know the relative proportion of these two structures. In th

Hi Anatoly, Sorry very much Anatoly, you are right, I only told you low values for S02 but I did not give any value to you. Which is the minimum reasonable coordiantion number in a fcc structure? Yes, I assumed a fixed value of 12 for N and I left S02 as variable. I realize that my fault was to

Hi Matt, Thank you very much for your comments. S02 is a variable for me and it gives information about the size of the particles (related to coordination number). For instance, in the case of Pt foil it should be close to 0.85, however it is much smaller (0.20) in the case of platinum nanoparti

Hi all, First of all, I would like to thanks Anatoly for his file and everybody for useful comments. I have analysed Anatoly's data and I have obtained a good value for S02 = 0.85 or 0.82 (depending on the number of variables used). So, my data is the problem, and it is not my analysis, but maybe

Hi all, I did fits with self absorption corrected data (Fluo and Booth algorithms) and the value for S02 is 1.20 (0.30). It seems that I am not very lucky, if I take an average value (1.20 and 0.50), it should be ok (0.85) jeje, I am joking. Then...what can I do now? Thank you very much, Best

Hi all, I read your papers Anatoly. You fixed the value of S02 found in the Pt metal, and the expression in Artemis would be like this: N:1 x S02: amp·N, right?? I have a low value of S02 in the case of platinum (0.53), how can I solve the problem? Bond distances = delR + Reff (with phase correct
