A Cu+ peak in the experimental XANES of Cu-SAPO-34 is assigned to several Cu ion species. By studying Cu K-edge XANES of Cu-SAPO-34 with various adsorption species of different oxidizing power, we concluded that our computational XANES results capture the real trend of the edge shift with oxidation state.
