Hello everyone,
Thank everybody for the good suggestions.
Especially I thank Prof. Eleanor Dodson for her many times' help.
Finally, I found that there is an ice ring in the data as the suggestion of
Prof. Eleanor Dodson.
After I cut out ice rings, Rfact and Rfree are 0.175 and 0.227 at 1.8 A.
Best regards,
