1 Core Level Spectroscopies Spectroscopies involving core levels are element-sensitive, and that makes them very useful for understanding chemical bonding, as well as for the study of complex materials. The drawback is the interaction of the valence electrons/holes with the core hole. This leads to the formation of excitons and multiplets.

2 Spectroscopies involving Core Levels Core Level Photoemission Inverse Photoemission Tunneling Spectroscopy Core Level Emission 1 Hole 1 Electron 1 Electron/Hole 1 Hole 1 Core Level Absorption Electron Energy Loss RIXS Auger Resonant Inelastic X-ray Scattering Appearance Potential 1 Electron + 1 Hole 2 Holes 2 Electrons + 1 Hole 2 3

3 Core Level Photoemission (XPS, ESCA) E Fermi Core Hole Measures the binding energy of a core level by ionizing it Provides the energy reference for other core level spectroscopies Involves just a single quasiparticle, the core hole

4 X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS, NEXAFS, XANES) E Fermi Core Hole Probes an empty valence state by populating it from a core level Element sensitive, measures the local DOS at a specific atom Need to consider electron-hole interaction (2 quasiparticles)

5 Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy (EELS) E Fermi Core Hole Same process as absorption spectroscopy, but with a virtual photon transferred from an external electron. Same dipole transitions in forward scattering, but additional multipole transitions at finite momentum transfer.

6 X-ray Emission Spectroscopy E Fermi Core Level Starts with a core hole (produced by absorption or EELS) The core hole gets filled by a valence electron The end result is a valencehole (no electron-hole interaction), i.e. one probes an occupied state

7 Resonant Inelastic X-ray Scattering (RIXS, X-ray Raman) E Fermi Core Level Combines core level absorption and emission coherently The end result is the creation of a valence electron-hole pair Becomes element-specific by involving a core level resonance

8 Auger Spectroscopy (AES) E Fermi Core Level Measures pairs of occupied states by creating two holes Becomes element-specific by starting with a core hole Convolution of the DOS of two valence holes blurs the results

9 Appearance Potential Spectroscopy (APS) E Fermi Core Hole Measures a pair of unoccupied states by adding two electrons Becomes element-specific via the remaining core hole Convolution of the DOS of two valence electrons blurs the results

10 Core Level Photoemission Element selective Synchrotron radiation X-ray tube (Al K α ) hν = 1400eV Intermediate oxidation states of Si at the Si/SiO 2 interface (key to Si technology!).

11 Varying the Probing Depth Fast electrons get farther (A = 0.1 nm) Not enough energy to excite plasmons ( 15eV) Si Ge GaAs

12 Chemical Information from X-Ray Absorption Spectroscopy Core to Valence Transitions : 1s 2p (π*, σ*), 2p 3d, Sharp levels (<1keV) for bond orbitals Deep levels (>1keV) for dilute species Magnetism Catalysts Bio Environment

16 Information about Molecular Orientation Dipole selection rules: l l ±1, here s p Electric field vector E parallel to the orientation of the molecular orbital C-H C-C Alkanethiol selfassembled monolayer (SAM )

17 Chemistry of Bio-Interfaces Double-stranded DNA σ* π* π The N1s edge selects the π*-orbitals of the base pairs All π* orbitals are parallel to the axis of the double-helix

18 Breaking the Peptide Bond by Radiation: Photochemistry at the N Atom The peptide bond (= amide bond) form the backbone of proteins and polyamides (nylon, Kevlar, ) Observe the peptide bond directly at the N atom via N 1s spectroscopy. Both proteins and Kevlar are radiation sensitive. Find the microscopic mechanism. Which orbitals are eliminated, which are created?

19 The Peptide Bond N Two amino acids react. N forms the bridge. See the π* orbital of this double bond in X-ray absorption covalent + (zwitter)-ionic

20 Signature of the Peptide Bond at the N 1s Absorption Edge The π* of the peptide bond is the largest N 1s peak. Need a dimer to establish the π* peptide bond orbital. hν (ev) Xiaosong Liu et al., Langmuir 22, 7719 (2006) Gordon et al. 2003

21 Signature of the Broken Peptide Bond after Irradiation Peptide bond π* orbital weakens. New π* doublet grows. Universal: Small to large proteins, nylon,

22 Which Moiety Produces such a Characteristic Doublet? Model compounds for fingerprinting: Imine (top two panels) Nitroso (bottom two panels) Nitrile (not shown) An asymmetric imine has a doublet with the correct splitting. Symmetric imines have a single π*. The splitting is too large in nitroso and too small in nitrile groups.

23 Transition Metals: 2p 3d Absorption Edge Can detect the oxidation state, spin state, and the ligand field for one Fe atom inside a molecule. Fe 2+ Fe 3+

24 Time-Resolved X-Ray Absorption Spectroscopy Spin excitations in 100 picoseconds (Larmor frequency) Atomic motion in 100 femtoseconds (vibration period) Electronic motion in 1 femtosecond (Fermi velocity = nm/fs) Huse et al., J. Phys. Conf. Ser. 148, (2009) Pump-probe X-ray absorption spectra of a solvated Fe complex, from the low-spin ground state to a high-spin excited state.

25 Spatially Resolved X-Ray Absorption Spectroscopy for Catalysis Want this chemically resolved Chemically resolved, but still insufficient spatial resolution Fischer-Tropsch process for converting coal to liquid fuel. De Smit et al., Nature 456, 222 (2008)
