We assign the first pre-edge feature to a di-rect quadrupolar transition from Is core state to 3d molecular orbitals of the central atom, e.g., the lowest in energy,due to the more effective attraction of the core hole. The second peak in this region arises unambiguously from thehybridization between p-orbitals of the central atom with higher-shell metal octahedral orbitals.展开更多
