Oscillatory structure is found in the atomic background absorption in x-ray-absorption fine structure (XAFS). This atomic-XAFS or AXAFS arises from scattering within an embedded atom, and is analogous to the Ramsauer-Townsend effect. Calculations and measurements confirm the existence of AXAFS and show that it can dominate contributions such as multi-electron excitations. The structure is sensitive to chemical effects and thus provides a new probe of bonding and exchange effects on the scattering potential.

We report the near-edge x-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectrum of a single layer of graphite (graphene) obtained by micromechanical cleavage of Highly Ordered Pyrolytic Graphite (HOPG) on a SiO2 substrate. We utilized a PhotoEmission Elect ron Microscope (PEEM) to separately study single- double- and few-layers graphene (FLG) samples. In single-layer graphene we observe a splitting of the pi* resonance and a clear signature of the predicted interlayer state. The NEXAFS data illustrate the rapid evolution of the electronic structure with the increased number of layers.

Local structure of FeSe(1-x)Te(x) has been studied by extended x-ray absorption fine-structure (EXAFS) measurements as a function of temperature. Combination of Se and Fe K edge EXAFS has permitted to quantify the local interatomic distances and thei r mean-square relative displacements. The Fe-Se and Fe-Te bond lengths in the ternary system are found to be very different from the average crystallographic Fe-Se/Te distance, and almost identical to the Fe-Se and Fe-Te distances for the binary FeSe and FeTe systems, indicating distinct site occupation by the Se and Te atoms. The results provide a clear evidence of local inhomogeneities and coexisting electronic components in the FeSe1-xTex, characterized by different local structural configurations, with direct implication on the fundamental electronic structure of these superconductors.
We present K-edge XAFS (X-Ray Absorption Fine Structure) data for various concentrations of Pr in Y$_{1- x}$Pr$_{x}$Ba$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{7}$. The character of the Pr K-edge XAFS data indicate that most of the Pr substitutes onto the Y site and is well ordered with respect to the unit cell. These data also show that the amplitude of the first Pr-O peak is greatly reduced when compared to the first Y-O peak in pure YBCO, and decreases with increasing Pr concentration. In contrast, the Y K-edge data for these alloys show little if any change in the oxygen environment, while the Cu K-edge data show a 10% reduction in the first Cu-O peak. Fits to the Pr data suggest that some oxygen atoms about the Pr become disordered and/or distorted; most of the Pr-O nearest- neighbor distances are 2.45 AA, but about 15-40% of them are in a possibly broadened peak at 2.27$^{+0.03}_{-0.12}$ AA. The Cu K-edge XAFS data show a slight broadening but no loss of oxygens, which is consistent with a radial distortion of the Pr-O bond. The existence and the size of these two bond lengths is consistent with a mixture of Pr$^{3+}$ and Pr$^{4+}$ bonds, and to a formal valence of +3.33$^{+0.07}_{-0.18}$ for the Pr ion. This paper should be published in Feb. 1994 in Phys. Rev. B.
The structural properties of Er-doped AlNO epilayers grown by radio frequency magnetron sputtering were studied by Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (EXAFS) spectra recorded at the Er L 3 edge. The analysis revealed that Er substitutes for Al in all the studied samples and the increase in Er concentration from 0.5 to 3.6 at.% is not accompanied by formation of ErN, Er 2 O 3 or Er clusters. Simultaneously recorded X-ray Absorption Near Edge Structure (XANES) spectra verify that the bonding configuration of Er is similar in all studied samples. The Er-N distance is 2 constant at 2.18-2.19 {AA} i.e. approximately 15% larger than the Al-N bondlength, revealing that the introduction of Er in the cation sublattice causes considerable local distortion. The Debye-Waller factor, which measures the static disorder, of the second nearest shell of Al neighbors, has a local minimum for the sample containing 1% Er that coincides with the highest photoluminescence efficiency of the sample set.
Local structure of NdFeAsO$_{1-x}$F$_{x}$ ($x$=0.0, 0.05, 0.15 and 0.18) high temperature iron pnictide superconductor system is studied using arsenic $K$-edge extended x-ray absorption fine structure measurements as a function of temperature. Fe-As bondlength shows only a weak temperature and F-substitution dependence, consistent with the strong covalent nature of this bond. The temperature dependence of the mean-square relative-displacements of the Fe-As bondlength are well described by the correlated-Einstein model for all the samples, but with different Einstein-temperatures for the superconducting and non-superconducting samples. The results indicate distinct local Fe-As lattice dynamics in the superconducting and non-superconducting iron-pnictide systems.
