The resonant multiple Bragg x-ray diffraction is used to study the forbidden (104) reflection in LaMnO3. Using the interference between the three-beam scattering and resonant scattering we can determine the phase of the resonant scattering. This phase is shown to be consistent with a model in which the resonant scattering is caused by the influence of the Mn-O bond length distortion rather than directly by the orbital ordering on the Mn 4p band structure.
共振多布拉格X射线衍射被用于研究LaMnO₃中禁戒的(104)反射。利用三束散射与共振散射之间的干涉,我们可以确定共振散射的相位。结果表明,该相位与一个模型相符,在该模型中,共振散射是由Mn - O键长畸变的影响引起的,而不是直接由Mn 4p能带结构上的轨道有序化引起的。
