Time-dependent and constituent-specific spectral changes in soft near edge X-ray spectroscopy (XAS) of an [Fe/MgO]$_8$ metal/insulator heterostructure upon laser excitation are analyzed at the O K-edge with picosecond time resolution. The oxygen absorption edge of the insulator features a uniform intensity decrease of the fine structure at elevated phononic temperatures, which can be quantified by a simple simulation and fitting procedure presented here. Combining X-ray absorption spectroscopy with ultrafast electron diffraction measurements and ab initio calculations demonstrate that the transient intensity changes in XAS can be assigned to a transient lattice temperature. Thus, the sensitivity of transient near edge XAS to phonons is demonstrated.

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.
We report the development of a laboratory-based Rowland-circle monochromator that incorporates a low poer x-ray (bremsstrahlung) tube source, a spherically-bent crystal analyzer (SBCA), and an energy-resolving solid-state detector. This relatively in
expensive, introductory level instrument achieves 1-eV energy resolution for photon energies of 5 keV to 10 keV while also dmeonstrating a net efficiency previously seen only in laboratory monochromators having much coarser energy resolution. Despite the use of only a compact, air-cooled 10 W x-ray tube, we find count rates for nonresonant x-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) comparable to those achived at monochromatized spectroscopy beamlines at synchrotron light sources. For x-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES), the monochromatized flux is small (due to the use of a low-powered x-ray generator) but still useful for routine transmission-mode studies of concentrated samples. These results indicate that upgrading to a standard commercial high-powered line-focused x-ray tube or rotating anode x-ray generator would result in monochromatized fluxes of order 10^6 to 10^7 photons/s with no loss in energy resolution. This work establishes core technical capabilities for a rejuvenation of laboratory-based x-ray spectroscopies that could have special relevance for contemporary research on catalytic or electrical energy storage systems using transition-metal, lanthanide, or noble-metal active species.
Pre-edge features in X-ray absorption spectroscopy contain key information about the lowest excited states and thus on the most interesting physical properties of the system. In transition metal oxides they are particularly structured but extracting
physical parameters by comparison with a calculation is not easy due to several computational challenges. By combining core-hole attraction and correlation effects in first principles approach, we calculate Ni K-edge X-ray absorption spectra in NiO. We obtain a striking, parameter-free agreement with experimental data and show that dipolar pre-edge features above the correlation gap are due to non-local excitations largely unaffected by the core-hole. We show that in charge transfer insulators, this property can be used to measure the correlation gap and probe the intrinsic position of the upper-Hubbard band.
The structural, electronic and optical properties of cubic double perovskite BaCoWO6 have been studied. Neutron powder diffraction data is collected on this sample from 6K to 300K. The crystal structure is face centered cubic, space group being Fm3m
(No. 225). We did not find evidence for long range magnetic ordering in this system in this temperature range. The band-gap is estimated using Uv-vis spectroscopy. The Co-K edge X-ray absorption (XAFS) spectra of Ba2CoWO6 was analysed together with those Co-foil, which was used as reference compounds. X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) studies give the insight of the electronic and structural information on the Co local environment for Ba2CoWO6.
The present manuscript considers the application of the method of the near-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy (NEXAFS) for the investigation of the graphene-based systems (from free-standing graphene to the metal-intercalation-like systems). The NEXA
FS spectra for the selected systems are calculated in the framework of the approach, which includes the effects of the dynamic core-hole screening. The presented spectral changes from system to system are analysed with the help of the corresponding band-structure calculations. The obtained results are compared with available experimental data demonstrating the excellent agreement between theory and experiment. The direct correlation between the strength of the graphene interaction with the metallic substrate and the spectral distributions (shape and intensities of pi* and sigma* features in the C K NEXAFS spectra) is found that can be taken as a fingerprint for the description of interaction at the graphene/metal interface.
