- Thin films of TiOPc have been investigated using photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) and X-ray spectroscopy (XAS). The results are interpreted in terms of the local geometry around the metal center both with regard to bonding and crystal field symmetry. Core and valence PES have been found to be in accordance with the structural characteristics of the TiOPc molecule. For resonant PES at the N1s and Ti2p edges, information on the local electronic structure of the occupied molecular orbitals has been obtained. Ti2p XAS was interpreted in terms of five-fold coordination around the titanium atom for TiOPc of C-4V symmetry. Angle-resolved N1s XAS suggests the molecular planes to order preferentially parallel to the sample surface plane.

- We report the first successful reconstruction of the real space image from coherent X-ray diffraction patterns of membrane-supported nanoparticles using single ultrafast pulses. The particles consisted of 145-nm spherical polystyrene spheres that were size-selected by differential mobility analysis. We investigated the dependence of signal intensity on the number of spherical nanoparticles irradiated by single ultrafast pulses at the FLASH FEL facility. We demonstrate detection of as few as two 145-nm diameter particles irradiated by a single 32 nm fs-long FLASH pulse focused to 2.4Jcm(-2). In this case the noise in the diffraction pattern. due to photon-counting statistics and scattering from the supporting silicon nitride membrane, was the largest contributor to the recorded intensity. We were able to reconstruct high-resolution images of the nanoparticles using a strong scattering reference object to aid the phase retrieval of the coherent diffraction pattern. This method of reference-enhanced diffractive imaging may allow the imaging of weakly scattering objects at FLASH and other future X-ray FEL sources.

- DeltaHartree-Fock (DeltaHF) and DeltaKohn-Sham (DeltaKS) orbital theories are used to calculate C(1s) and N(1s) core electron binding energies and chemical shifts of pyrrole and pyridine molecules. As a result, combination of DeltaKS and B3LYP functional appears as a very promising approach for the determination of the core excitation/ionization energies. For the carbon series in pyridine, electronic correlation is essential in correctly predicting the relative shifts among carbon atoms. A strong dynamical differential correlation energy for carbon and nitrogen has been revealed and can be related to the large magnitude of electronic transfer from ligands to the core ionized site.

Electronic structure and surface structure of Cu2S nanorods from polarization dependent X-ray absorption spectroscopy

- Highly aligned CuS nanorods have been studied by polarization dependent X-ray absorption spectroscopy. In contrast to bulk Cu2S, strong s, p, and d hybridization is found in the nanorods. The polarization dependence shows a predominant d(z2) character of Cu 3d states. Ab initio multiple-scattering calculations confirm the strong hybridization, and reveal that CuS nanorods are grown along the z-axis of chalcocite structure with Cu-7 and Cu-10 sites being the main building blocks. The hybridized absorption peak in the nanorods is shifted towards lower energies for smaller diameter of nanorods, which is attributed to surface reconstruction due to strong Cu-Cu interactions on the Cu-rich surface of the nanorods.

Young's double-slit experiment using two-center core-level photoemission : Photoelectron recoil effects
- 2007

- Core-level photoemission from N-2 can be considered an analogue of Young's double-slit experiment (YDSE) in which the double-slit is replaced by a pair of N 1s orbitals. The measured ratio between the 1 sigma(g) and 1 sigma(u) photoionization cross-sections oscillates as a function of photoelectron momentum, due to two-center YDSE interference, exhibiting a remarkable dependence on the vibrational sub-levels of the core ionized state. We theoretically demonstrate that the recoil of the photoelectron given to the ionized N atom strongly influences this interference pattern. The reason for this is that the momentum transfer affects the phases of the photoionization amplitudes.

Stationary and dispersive features in resonant inelastic soft X-ray scattering at the Ge 3p resonances

- Resonant inelastic soft X-ray scattering at the 3p resonances in crystalline Ge is presented. Both stationary and dispersive features are observed in a wide energy range above as well as below the ionization limits. These observations are in agreement with theoretical predictions based on a two-step model where the initially excited electron has no influence on the emission step. Excess population of states in the conduction band is found, and discussed in terms of attosecond electron dynamics. (c) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

The interaction of cations and liquid water studied by resonant soft-X-ray absorption and emission spectroscopy

- We report the soft-X-ray absorption and emission studies of NaCl, MgCl2, and AlCl3 in water solutions. The influences of cations on the water molecular structure can be seen as the absorption threshold edge shifted to high energy in the X-ray absorption spectra; the mixing of molecular orbital in 3a1 symmetry is reinforced as the intensity of 3a1 is further reduced; and the 1b1-emission peak shows the broadening and shift differently for Na+, Mg2+, and Al3+ water solutions, which indicates that the charge difference of the cations may not be the only playing role being responsible to the interactions between the cations and water molecules.
