Resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) is an advanced X-ray spectroscopy technique. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] In the last two decades RIXS has been widely exploited to study the electronic, magnetic and structural properties of quantum materials and molecules.
Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) probes structure in the nanometer to micrometer range by measuring scattering intensity at scattering angles 2θ close to 0°. X-ray reflectivity is an analytical technique for determining thickness, roughness, and density of single layer and multilayer thin films. Wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS), a ...
This means that X-rays are seemingly "reflected" off parallel crystal lattice planes perpendicular at the same angle as their angle of approach to the crystal with respect to the lattice planes; in the elastic light (typically X-ray)-crystal scattering, parallel crystal lattice planes perpendicular to a reciprocal lattice vector for the crystal ...
XAES – X-ray induced Auger electron spectroscopy; XANES – XANES, synonymous with NEXAFS (near edge X-ray absorption fine structure) XAS – X-ray absorption spectroscopy; X-CTR – X-ray crystal truncation rod scattering; X-ray crystallography; XDS – X-ray diffuse scattering; XES – X-ray emission spectroscopy
Several different aspects of electromagnetic scattering are distinct enough to have conventional names. Major forms of elastic light scattering (involving negligible energy transfer) are Rayleigh scattering and Mie scattering. Inelastic scattering includes Brillouin scattering, Raman scattering, inelastic X-ray scattering and Compton scattering.
The photon-in-photon-out process may be thought of as a scattering event. When the x-ray energy corresponds to the binding energy of a core-level electron, this scattering process is resonantly enhanced by many orders of magnitude. This type of X-ray emission spectroscopy is often referred to as resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS).
Emission spectroscopy can take the form of either resonant inelastic X-ray emission spectroscopy or non-resonant X-ray emission spectroscopy . Both spectroscopies involve the photonic promotion of a core level electron, and the measurement of the fluorescence that occurs as the electron relaxes into a lower-energy state. The differences between ...
Elastic scattering is a form of particle scattering in scattering theory, nuclear physics and particle physics. In this process, the internal states of the particles involved stay the same. In the non-relativistic case, where the relative velocities of the particles are much less than the speed of light , elastic scattering simply means that ...
