X-ray-induced electronic structure change in CuIr2S4
X-ray-induced electronic structure change in CuIr2S4
The electronic structure of CuIr$_2$S$_4$ has been investigated using various bulk-sensitive x-ray spectroscopic methods near the Ir $L_3$-edge: resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS), x-ray absorption spectroscopy in the partial fluorescence yield (PFY-XAS) mode, and resonant x-ray emission spectroscopy (RXES). A strong RIXS signal (0.75 eV) resulting from a charge-density-wave gap …
