Abstract

We present an application of multiple scattering theory with “muffin-tin” potentials to the calculation of X-ray absorption cross section. We have measured and calculated the K-edge spectra of atoms in compounds with zincblende structure : SiC, ZnS. We show that some spectral features can be precisely related to the local environnement around the absorbing atom.
