A new resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) instrument has been constructed at beamline P01 of the PETRA III synchrotron. This instrument has been named IRIXS (intermediate X-ray energy RIXS) and is dedicated to X-rays in the tender-energy regime (2.5-3.5 keV). The range covers the L absorption edges of many of the 4d elements (Mo, Tc, Ru, Rh, Pd and Ag), offering a unique opportunity to study their low-energy magnetic and charge excitations. The IRIXS instrument is currently operating at the Ru L-edge (2840 eV) but can be extended to the other 4d elements using the existing concept. The incoming photons are monochromated with a four-bounce Si(111) monochromator, while the energy analysis of the outgoing photons is performed by a diced spherical crystal analyzer featuring (102) lattice planes of quartz (SiO). A total resolution of 100 meV (full width at half-maximum) has been achieved at the Ru L-edge, a number that is in excellent agreement with ray-tracing simulations.
一台新的共振非弹性X射线散射(RIXS)仪器已在佩特拉III同步加速器的P01光束线上建成。该仪器被命名为IRIXS(中能X射线能量RIXS),专门用于软X射线能区(2.5 - 3.5 keV)的研究。这个能量范围涵盖了许多4d元素(钼、锝、钌、铑、钯和银)的L吸收边,为研究它们的低能磁激发和电荷激发提供了独特的机会。IRIXS仪器目前在钌L边(2840 eV)运行,但利用现有的设计理念可扩展到其他4d元素。入射光子通过四反射Si(111)单色仪进行单色化,而出射光子的能量分析则由一块切割后的球形晶体分析仪完成,该分析仪采用石英(SiO)的(102)晶格平面。在钌L边已实现了100 meV(半高宽)的总分辨率,这一数值与光线追踪模拟结果高度吻合。
