Resonant satellite photoemission of atomic Mn

High-resolution photoelectron spectrometry of atomic manganese from the region of the 3p→3dgiant resonance to 120 eV

“…In addition, there is also very strong evidence for the existence of at least four times as many satellites as previously observed [7,8,11], although many of these are of a very weak nature. Table I gives a complete listing of the features observed in this spectrum, including binding energies, relative intensities with respect to the 3d( D) main line, peak 11, and assignments based mostly on the optical data of Corliss and Sugar [39].…”

Photoelectron spectroscopy of manganese-based Heusler alloys

“…In the limit of no hybridization, resonances associated with Mn 3d derived states were assumed to be characterized by q values in the range 2.2-2.5, close to those obtained for atomic Mn. 33 Weaker resonances, associated with more strongly hybridized states, were found to have q values significantly lower than those for the atomic case. To investigate this aspect further, a Fano analysis was performed on the resonant line shapes of Fig.…”

“…The value of q obtained at 2.6 eV binding energy is comparable with that obtained for atomic Mn. 33 A possible explanation, therefore, for the change in q is that the Mn 3d states at the bottom of the band are more localized in nature than those states closer to E F . However, other factors apart from the degree of hybridization, such as the presence of multielectron resonant satellites, may affect the valence-band resonance.…”

Current Status and Future Directions of Atomic Studies by Electron Spectrometry with Synchrotron Radiation

“…A prime example is offered by Mn(3p 6 3d 5 4s2) in which the 3p -+ 3d resonance strongly modifies the total and partial cross sections and the {3 parameters from about 30 to 80 eV (Bruhn et al 1982;Kobrin et al 1984;Krause et al 1984;Schmidt et al 1985). The strong effects on cr(3d), cr(4s) , cr(satellites) and {3(3d) are displayed in Fig.…”
