(a) Uranium M4-edge HERFD-XANES and the corresponding FDMNES calculated spectrum (non convoluted). The absorbance scale was limited in this plot to better distinguish the numerous satellite features (denoted as A, B, C, D, E and F). We refer to Figure 7 in the supporting information for the full scale absorption spectrum. (b, c) Calculated U-f and O-p partial DOS, here expressed as cubic harmonics, to allow direct comparison with the experimental XANES spectrum. The Fermi energy level is indicated with a vertical dotted line. Vertical dashed-dotted lines indicating the position of features A, B, C, D, E and F in partial DOS are also present to guide the eyes. We refer to Figure 6 of the supporting information for the other calculated partial DOS. |
