Interference between resonant and nonresonant inelastic x-ray scattering.

A detailed study of inelastic x-ray scattering from the ground state to the 3Σg(3σ(g)(-1)3s(g)1) state of the O2 molecule is presented. The observed angular anisotropy shows that the vibrational excitations within this final state are strongly dependent on the polarization of the incident radiation. The analysis demonstrates that this is a manifestation of interference between resonant and dire...

Electronic structure of Ni complexes by X-ray resonance Raman spectroscopy (resonant inelastic X-ray scattering).

The potential of 1s2p resonant inelastic (Raman) X-ray scattering (RIXS) is demonstrated for a series of Ni coordination complexes. In this technique, incident and scattered photon energies lie in the hard X-ray range (>5 keV). The 1s2p RIXS contour plots provide information that is complementary to K-edge and L-edge spectroscopy. RIXS spectroscopy promises to be a valuable probe of electronic ...

Temperature-Dependent 1s2p Resonant Inelastic X‐ray Scattering of CoO

The temperature-dependent 1s2p resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) spectra of CoO have been measured with 0.3 eV overall resolution, and the RIXS planes have been analyzed with multiplet calculations. The analysis of the high-resolution 1s2p RIXS plane allows a more detailed determination of the ground-state electronic structure, as compared to 1s X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS). The...
