Show affiliationsThe EXAFS spectra of Cu and Pd foil from many different beamlines and synchrotrons are compared to address the dependence of the amplitude reduction factor (S02) on beamline specific parameters. Even though S02 is the same parameter as the EXAFS coordination number, the value for S02 is given little attention, and is often unreported. The S02 often differs for the same material due to beamline and sample attributes, such that no importance is given to S02-values within a general range of 0.7 to 1.1. EXAFS beamlines have evolved such that it should now be feasible to use standard S02 values for all EXAFS measurements of a specific elemental environment. This would allow for the determination of the imaginary energy (Ei) to account for broadening of the EXAFS signal rather than folding these errors into an effective S02-value. To test this concept, we model 11 Cu-foil and 6 Pd-foil EXAFS spectra from around the world to compare the difference in S02- and Ei-values.
