EXAFS Resources and Spectra Databases
This page gathers a selection of EXAFS (Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure) databases and reference resources. These links provide access to experimental spectra, theoretical data, and reference materials for X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) studies. They include both academic repositories and open-access initiatives supporting data sharing within the XAS community.
