Sample Preparation

• Information about various sample-related distortions to measured XAS data, and how to avoid them

• Preparing doubly contained samples for XAS measurement

Other topics

• What information should be reported in your manuscirpt with XAFS Analysis (originally pointed to Reporting_EXAFS_Analysis)

• Local structure refinement on the basis of XANES fitting using FitIt software. Note: The videos on this site require Flash, so proceed with caution. Also, the videos focus on using FitIt and don’t seem to provide much guidance on how to use either Feff8 or FDMNES, the theory programs upon which it relies.
