Cn. Chang et al., THE VANADIUM K-BETA K-ALPHA INTENSITY RATIOS OF SOME VANADIUM COMPOUNDS, Journal of physics. B, Atomic molecular and optical physics, 27(21), 1994, pp. 5251-5256
The vanadium K beta/K alpha intensity ratios of some simple vanadium c
ompounds, VO, V2O3, VO2, V6O13, V2O5, VN and VC have been measured by
using a Si(Li) x-ray spectrometer. A strong covalent compounds in gene
ral have large vanadium K beta/K alpha intensity ratios which can be a
ttributed to the non-diagram lines due to the band mixing between the
metal and the ligands. For relatively weak covalent compounds the cont
ribution from the change of the diagram line may have to be included.
