“…Nevertheless, the leading absorption peak in both the S K-and L-edge spectra were at an energy above the Fermi level similar to that of the Co K pre-edge peak, but $2 eV lower than for the Cu K pre-edge peak. While there was no resolved structure in the principal absorption peak in the S K-edge spectrum for carrollite reported by Croft et al (2003), a shoulder was just discernible about 1 eV below the maximum of the peak that was interpreted as arising from the Co d-orbital splitting. The S K-and L 3 -edge spectra simulated on the basis of the WIEN2k calculations were in good agreement with the corresponding spectra observed by Li et al (1995) and Croft et al (2003), including the low-energy shoulder in the S K-edge spectrum.…”
