Retraction of: Scientific Reports https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-022-16666-6, published online 28 July 2022
The Editors have retracted this Article.
After the publication of a Correction 1, additional concerns were raised about the corrected X-ray diffraction spectra presented in Figure 1.
The Authors repeated the experiments and provided the Editors with the new spectra, but an expert peer review of this data by the journal concluded that the new results were not consistent with those of the published Article and its Correction. The Editors therefore no longer have confidence in this work and its conclusions.
All Authors agree to the retraction and its wording.
