NEW MANY-BODY THEORIES ON SOFT X-RAY SPECTROSCOPY OF INSULATING SOLIDS

by Norikazu Tomita & Keiichiro Nasu (Photon Factory, Institute of Materials Structure Science, KEK, Japan)

This book presents new, promising theories on soft X-ray spectroscopy. As third generation synchrotron light sources have started operating, more precise and sophisticated theories on X-ray spectroscopy are needed. In particular, many-body effects on optical spectroscopy are the hottest topic in solid state physics, since they seem to break conventional mean field pictures completely. Conceptual and instructive theories on X-ray scattering, photoemission, and light absorption spectroscopy for many-body systems are introduced in this book. In addition, many important and lasting experiments are referred to, and compared with the authors' theories.


Contents:

  • Formulation
  • Theory for the Angle-Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy
  • Theory for the Light Absorption Spectrum of the Strongly Correlated Electron System
  • Light Absorption Spectrum of the Insulating System Driven by the Strong Coulomb Repulsion
  • Angle-Resolved Phtoemission Spectrum of the Insulating System Driven by the Strong Coulomb Repulsion
  • Electron Correlation Effects on the Non-Resonant Inelastic X-Ray Scattering Spectroscopy
  • Electron Correlation Effects on Characteristic X-Ray Radiation Spectroscopy of Wide-Gap Insulators
  • Fluctuation Effects Due to Phonons on Resonant Soft X-Ray Radiation Spectroscopy of Wide-Gap Insulators


Readership: Graduates students and researchers in condensed matter physics and materials engineering.
