Hi Rana, in the simple approximation E0 can be connected to electronic configuration of ion, in your situation (but I can only guess) ions can have different E0's (Fe, Mn), but in the first step I would keep one E0 value for each ion (one E0 for O, one for Fe, etc), especially that you are focused on first shell of oxygen
here we/I had a small discussion about E0 http://www.mail-archive.com/ifeffit@millenia.cars.aps.anl.gov/msg01745.html here you can find also something http://xafs.org/Tutorials?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=Newville_Intro.pdf best regards darek -----Wiadomość oryginalna----- Od: ifeffit-boun...@millenia.cars.aps.anl.gov w imieniu Jatinkumar Rana Wysłano: Śr 2010-07-28 09:40 Do: ifeffit@millenia.cars.aps.anl.gov Temat: Re: [Ifeffit] Ifeffit Digest, Vol 89, Issue 17 Hello Darek, Thank you so much for your reply. Yes, i can rely on model, we have performed reitveld refinement to get the crystallographic data. To my knowledge, there should not be any other phases. Your suggestion is quite right. Somehow, i have to constrain my parameters (to reduce the no. of parameters) and try to fit it. However, I would like to ask you following questions. I am confused about the term "Delta E0" what is the theoretical meaning of that in terms of photoelectron interactions ? If you have multiple atomic sites of absorbing atom, should "Delta E0" be same for all of them (assuming all absorbing atoms are at same oxidizing state) ? I am looking forward to your comments..
