Comparison between the experimental high-resolution XANES spectrum at the Mn K-edge of La0.5Ca0.5MnO3 (red open circles) with the weighted sum (50%:50%) of the end-members LaMnO3 and CaMnO3 (blue dashed line). In addition, the weighted sum (50%:50%) of the intermediate La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 and La0.33Ca0.67MnO3 compounds (black solid line) is also shown. |
