Ambient Zinc K-Edge Extended X-Ray Absorption Fine Structure Studies on Solid Solution Hardening of the Ternary Alloys

Figure 1

Zn K-edge X-ray absorption spectrum (XAS) for the Zn1−xBexSe sample (B). The data is processed by using pre edge and postedge lines and a spline-fitted background subtraction. (i) Experimental data is represented by a dotted curve, (ii) smooth continuous runner over the experimental data is the spline background fit, (iii) the bottom pre edge is marked by the dashed line, and (iv) the top post edge is marked by the dashed-dotted line. The inset is a derivative of the absorption and the maximum of the derivative is indicated by the arrow mark, depicting the exact position of the K-edge.
