29. The function has been parametrized as: f (x) = a1 atan [(x- a2) a3] + a4, where a1, a2, a3, and a4 are fitted with a Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm.

45. For XAFS results, the error bars are the diagonal elements of the covariance matrix evaluated during the fit and rescaled by the square root of the reduced χ2. For the DFT method, they are the resulting variance of convergence tests.

47. The R value shown in the FT of the EXAFS data does not correspond to the real distance, as reported in Table 1. This is due to the linearly decreasing dependence of the phase term, ψ (k), in the EXAFS formula (Ref.). A shift of 0.3-0.5 is observed in the present case.

49. The spectrum (5300) presents a peak at k=11 -1 that is unphysical. It is due to a distortion by diffraction effects (as discussed in the experimental section) and a consequent problematic background removal.
