[CP2K-user] [CP2K:22265] Re: Axial ligand-related issues in XAFS calculations

Dear  Marcella

  After performing the calculation using FDMNES, I observed a small peak 
before the main peak (the black line). However, the spectrum obtained from 
the CP2K calculation (the blue line) shows a huge peak in the same region. 
This makes me suspect that the data for this peak might be incorrect, and I 
am also concerned that my parameter settings may be improperly configured. 
Therefore, I am seeking some assistance.  
  Thank you in advance for your time and help.

Hi Eason

What is exactly the problem. 
The output seems OK

Dear Community,
  I would like to ask a question regarding a recent calculation. After 
adding an O2 molecule as an axial ligand to an Fe-N4 structure, the 
calculated XAFS spectrum using CP2K shows an intense peak at ~6999 eV. 
Could anyone kindly provide some insights into why this happens? I have 
found that this specific feature appears whenever the Fe center is bonded 
to O or S atoms.

   Fex : POTENTIAL ALL  BASIS_SET:def2-TZVP)
  Thank you in advance for your time and help.
