  1. 1. Resonant Soft X-Ray Emission Spectroscopy of Vanadium Oxides and Related Compounds

    Author : Thorsten Schmitt; Joseph Nordgren; Laurent Duda; Stefan Eisebitt; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; vanadium oxides; Li-battery; cathode materials; copper oxides; soft X-ray absorption; soft X-ray emission; resonant inelastic X-ray scattering; cluster model calculations; Fysik; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : This thesis addresses the electronic structure of vanadium and copper oxides using soft X-ray absorption (SXA) spectroscopy and resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) at high brightness synchrotron radiation sources. In RIXS incident photons, tuned to the energy of specific absorption resonances, are inelastically scattered leaving behind a low energy valence excitation in the system studied. READ MORE

  2. 2. Soft X-ray Scattering Dynamics Close to Core Ionization Thresholds in Atoms and Molecules

    Author : Johan Söderström; Jan-Erik Rubensson; Lorenzo Avaldi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Physics; Soft X-ray emission; Resonant inelastic X-ray scattering; Double excitations; Helium; X-ray-emission-threshold-electron coincidence; Fysik;

    Abstract : In this Thesis studies of highly excited states in gas-phase atoms and molecules (He, Ne, N2, O2, N2O and CO2) using a variety of synchrotron-radiation based techniques are presented. The three techniques used most frequently are X-ray-emission-threshold-electron coincidence (XETECO), X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and they are all given a brief introduction.
