The Al K-edge spectra of three potassium feldspars :
sanidine, microcline and orthoclase, all with four-fold–coordinated Al, have
been measured by X-ray absorption near-edge structure spectroscopy
and calculated according to the multiple-scattering formalism using
clusters of different sizes and the
exchange-correlation potential. Although these structures are quite
complex, and clusters as
large as containing ca. 150 atoms are needed to calculate them,
a significant agreement has been obtained between experimental spectra
and calculated ones up to 60 eV above the threshold,
both for energy positions and for relative
intensities. Moreover, while the gross features of all spectra
appear to be dominated mainly by the first coordination sphere
around the absorber, effects due to higher shells are detected.
