X-Ray Absorption Spectroscopy

4.0 Presentation

In any figures, raw XAFS data should be given with preferably no weighting in order to be able to judge the noise level in the data. The Fourier transforms of relevant spectra and fits should be included for illustrative purposes. The use of the imaginary part of the FT is necessary in order to detect small contributions in the spectra. The tabulated results of data analysis should include R factors or fit indexes, values of non-refined parameters and values (e.s.d.s) of refined parameters. Those spectra which are not to be illustrated should be made available for examination by the referees as (k)ⁿ and FT plots and can be deposited as supplementary data. If the authors wish, the data may also be deposited as supplementary material.
