Abstract
Procedures for analysis of EXAFS data require knowledge of the phase shift and amplitude functions, Φ(k) and B(k). We present procedures to obtain these functions, both experimentally and theoretically, that overcome limitations in presently available methods. A procedure is described that allows for the use of crystallographically complex materials to serve as standards in the experimental determination of Φ(k) and B(k). Also we present a convenient algorithm, that uses the full curved wave formalism, to determine the functions theoretically. Improved results are obtained, particularly at low k. We illustrate the use of these procedures with a study of the 3d transition metals.
