Anion And Cation-Yield Spectroscopy Of Core-Excited Sf6, Maria Novella Piancastelli, Wayne C. Stolte, Renaud Guillemin, A. Wolska, M. M. Sant'anna, Dennis W. Lindle

Chemistry and Biochemistry Faculty Research

We report an extensive study on total and partial-ion-yield spectroscopy around both the S 2p and F 1s thresholds in SF6. All positive and negative single-ion channels have been measured. Below the F 1s threshold we detect a large variation in relative intensity of the resonant structures according to the specific channel monitored, indicating selective fragmentation. Above threshold, at variance with previous cases described by us, we detect high-intensity structures related to shape resonances not only in the cation channels but also for the anions. We discuss the applicability and limits of a model we …


Fragmentation Dynamics Of H2s Following S 2p Photoexcitation, Renaud Guillemin, S-W Yu, Wayne C. Stolte, Dennis W. Lindle Jan 2005

Fragmentation Dynamics Of H2s Following S 2p Photoexcitation, Renaud Guillemin, S-W Yu, Wayne C. Stolte, Dennis W. Lindle

Chemistry and Biochemistry Faculty Research

The fragmentation dynamics of core-excited H2S has been studied by means of partial anion and cation yield measurements around the S L2,3-subshell ionization thresholds. All detectable ionic fragments are reported, and significant differences between partial ion yields are observed. Possible dissociation pathways are discussed by comparison to previous studies of electron spectra.


Near-Edge X-Ray Absorption Fine Structure Study Of Ion-Beam-Induced Phase Transformation In Gd2(Ti1-Yzry)2o7, Ponnusamy Nachimuthu, S. Thevuthasan, V. Shutthanandan, E. M. Adams, W. J. Weber, B. D. Begg, D. K. Shuh, Dennis W. Lindle, Eric M. Gullikson, Rupert C. Perera Jan 2005

Near-Edge X-Ray Absorption Fine Structure Study Of Ion-Beam-Induced Phase Transformation In Gd2(Ti1-Yzry)2o7, Ponnusamy Nachimuthu, S. Thevuthasan, V. Shutthanandan, E. M. Adams, W. J. Weber, B. D. Begg, D. K. Shuh, Dennis W. Lindle, Eric M. Gullikson, Rupert C. Perera

The structural and electronic properties of Gd2(Ti1−yZry)2O7 (y=0–1) pyrochlores following a 2.0-MeV Au2+ ion-beam irradiation (~5.0 X 1014 Au2+/cm2) have been investigated by Ti 2p and O 1s near-edge x-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS). The irradiation of Gd2(Ti1−yZry)2O7 leads to the phase transformation from the ordered pyrochlore structure (Fd3m) to the defect fluorite structure (Fm3m) regardless of Zr concentration. Irradiated Gd2(Ti1−y …
