Upload experimental spectrum and compare it to the finely selected references of bulk and molecular compounds. The classical linear combination fit, or more sophisticated machine learning analysis will provide information about parameters of the local atomic and electronic structure around absorbing atom
The concentrations of individual phases vary upon synthesis or chemical reaction. X-ray absorption spectra, acquired in situ, thus consist of linear combinations of the pure phases. Principal component analysis (PCA) is applied to determine the number of mathematically independent components. Further target transformation or multicurve resolution (MCR) reconstructs meaningful spectra of each phase.
We have collected spectra of well-defined single component species, including bulk and molecular compounds. The structure of each compound is verified by X-ray diffraction, the energy is calibrated using metal foil and all details of measurement are documented.
