XANES GeCl4 Molecule

From FEFF

GeCl4 Molecule

This is historically the first molecule for which EXAFS was calculated by Hartree, Kronig and Peterson (1934), using short range order theory.

Calculation Strategies and Examples

XANES calculations

1. Need for SCF and additional difficulties for XANES
2. GeCl4 Molecule
3. Solid: XANES and LDOS
4. Absolute cross-section
