(a) Comparison of the experimental Cu K-edge spectrum of KCuF3 (circles) and the spectra calculated by using a complex Hedin–Lundqvist ECP and different clusters with a maximum distance around Cu of Rmax = 3.5 Å (dotted line), 4.7 Å (dashed line), 5.9 Å (solid line) and 7.1 Å (dot-dashed line). (b) Comparison of the experimental spectrum and the theoretical calculations obtained for both 3d9 (dashed line) and 3d10 (solid line) after applying a 32% and 68% weighting factor. The weighted sum obtained according to the 68:32 (dot-dashed line) and 84:16 (dotted line) ratios is shown (see text for details). |
