Near-edge x-ray-absorption fine structure of Pb : a comparison of theory and experiment

TL;DR: Two independent techniques are used to obtain the background function for the x-ray-absorption fine structure (XAFS) of pure Pb at energies that are normally inaccessible because they are in the edge, and one of the presented methods of background removal can be employed for general XAFS analysis, and is easily automated.
Journal ArticleDOI

The UWXAFS analysis package : philosophy and details

TL;DR: The University of Washington analysis program UWXAFS is described which satisfies the listed requirements and includes multiple scattering contributions in an efficient manner utilizing the FEFF program, and fits in R-space to allow limiting the MS paths.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of multiple-scattering XAFS data using theoretical standards

TL;DR: Theoretical standards for scattering amplitudes and phase shifts are often necessary for XAFS analysis, as for cases in which multiple scattering paths are important over the R-range of interest.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural Basis for the Conducting Interface between LaAlO 3 and SrTiO 3

TL;DR: The complete atomic structure of a five-monolayer film of LaAlO3 on SrTiO3 has been determined for the first time by surface x-ray diffraction in conjunction with the coherent Bragg rod analysis phase-retrieval method and further structural refinement.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nature of the ferroelectric phase transition in PbTiO 3

TL;DR: The results show that an essential element of order-disorder is present even in this nominally pure ferroelectric crystal which displays a soft mode and a dielectric constant typicalmore of displacive-type ferroelectrics.
