We have performed a resonant x-ray scattering (RXS) study near the Co K edge on a single crystal of Ca3Co2O6. In the magnetically ordered phase a new class of weak reflections appears at the magnetic propagation vector tau (1/3,1/3,1/3). These new reflections allow direct access to the dipolar-quadrupolar E1E2 scattering channel. The theoretical possibility of observing isolated E1E2 electromagnetic multipoles has attracted a lot of interest in the recent years. Unfortunately in many system of interest, parity even and parity odd tensor contributions occur at the same positions in reciprocal space. We demonstrate that in Ca3Co2O6 it is possible to completely separate the parity even from the parity odd terms. The possibility of observing such terms even in globally centrosymmetric systems using RXS has been investigated theoretically; Ca3Co2O6 allows a symmetry based separation of this contribution.
Element-specific x-ray resonant magnetic scattering investigations were performed to determine the magnetic structure of Eu in EuRh2As2. In the temperature range from 46 K down to 6 K, an incommensurate antiferromagnetic (ICM)structure with a tempera
Under zero magnetic field, a quadrupolar order parameter at q_Q=(1/2,1/2,1/2) in a typical antiferro-quadrupole (AFQ) ordering compound CeB6 has been observed for the first time by means of a resonant X-ray scattering (RXS) te chnique. The RXS is obs
Soft X-ray resonant scattering (XRS) has been used to observe directly, for the first time, the ordering of localized electronic states on both the Mn and Tb sites in multiferroic TbMnO$_3$. Large resonant enhancement of the X-ray scattering cross-se
We investigated the origin of the energy splitting observed in the resonant x-ray scattering (RXS) in manganites. Using thin film samples with controlled lattice parameters and orbital states at a fixed orbital filling, we estimated that the contribu
Here we show that the low temperature phase of magnetite is associated with an effective, although fractional, ordering of the charge. Evidence and a quantitative evaluation of the atomic charges are achieved by using resonant x-ray diffraction (RXD)
