Y. Uehara et al., RESONANT INELASTIC-SCATTERING AT THE L-EDGE OF TI IN BARIUM STRONTIUM-TITANATE BY SOFT-X-RAY FLUORESCENCE SPECTROSCOPY, Applied physics A: Materials science & processing, 65(2), 1997, pp. 179-182
Photon-excited Ti L fluorescence spectra were measured for cubic bariu
m strontium titanate (BSTO) using tunable synchrotron radiation near t
he Ti L-edge. Elastic (recombination) peaks were observed around Ti L-
3 and L-2 resonances, especially strong at the L-3 resonance, while in
elastic peaks were observed from well below the resonance and showed c
omplex features at the excitation energies between the Ti L-3 and L-2
resonances. The measured spectra were explained based on radiative and
non-radiative electronic processes near the Ti-L-2,L-3 edge in the ti
tanate.
