Polarized time-resolved X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) is used to characterize the sequential ballistic excited state dynamics of two B12 vitamers: cyanocobalamin and adenosylcobalamin. Excitation at 550 nm and 365 nm is used to resolve axial and equatorial contributions to the excited state dynamics.

ABSTRACTWe report time-resolved X-ray absorption and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) measurements on amorphous silicon under nanosecond pulsed-laser irradiation. Each measurement was performed with one laser shot in the X-ray energy range from 90 to 300 eV. An X-ray absorption spectrum for induced liquid Si (liq*Si) was first observed above an energy density of 0.17 J/cm2. It differs significantly from the spectrum for amorphous Si and characteristically shows the disappearance of the Si-L(II,III) edge structure at around 100 eV. This phenomenon is interpreted in terms of a significant reduction in the 3s-like character of the unfilled part of the conduction band of liq*Si compared to that of amorphous Si. This is the first direct evidence that liq*Si has a metallic-like electronic structure. Timeresolved EXAFS results are also discussed briefly.

A new quick-scanning X-ray absorption fine-structure (QXAFS) system has been established on beamline 1W1B at the Beijing Synchrotron Radiation Facility. As an independent device, the QXAFS system can be employed by other beamlines equipped with a double-crystal monochromator to carry out quick energy scans and data acquisition. Both continuous-scan and trapezoidal-scan modes are available in this system to satisfy the time scale from subsecond (in the X-ray absorption near-edge structure region) to 1 min. Here, the trapezoidal-scan method is presented as being complementary to the continuous-scan method, in order to maintain high energy resolution and good signal-to-noise ratio. The system is demonstrated to be very reliable and has been combined with in situ cells to carry out time-resolved XAFS studies.

We have analyzed Tb L3-edge x-ray absorption near-edge structure spectra of Tb-doped phosphor compounds for plasma display panel applications. Intensity and lifetime of the green emission from the Tb3+:5D4→7F5 transition were measured with respect to nominal terbium concentration in the host compounds, i.e., YBO3, YPO4,and Y4Al2O9, all of which were made through the solid-state reaction. Typical concentration quenching was evident on the fluorescence intensity and the fluorescing level lifetime in our samples. From the analyses of white line absorption peaks at TbL3-edge, it was verified that terbium is essentially trivalent in all the samples, even invery highly concentrated ones. Thus, this implies that the concentration quenching was not caused by presence of mixed-valent states of terbium. Instead, it is believed that anonradiative energy transfer route among Tb3+ ions might be responsible for thebehavior.

In this study, we show that colour centres can be produced by irradiating calcium oxide with soft X-rays from a synchrotron radiation source. Using the X-ray excited optical luminescence (XEOL) technique, two colour centres, F-centre, and F+-centre can be identified. These colour centres emit photons at characteristic wavelengths. In addition, by performing time-resolved XEOL (TRXEOL), we are able to reveal timing and decay characteristics of the colour centres. We also present X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectra collected across oxygen K-edge, calcium L3,2-edge, and calcium K-edge. Experimental results are compared with density functional theory (DFT) calculations.Key words: calcium oxide, colour centre, synchrotron, X-ray excited optical luminescence, X-ray absorption near-edge structure.

The need to visualize molecular structure in the course of a chemical reaction, a phase transformation or a biological function has been a dream of scientists for decades. The development of time-resolved X-ray and electron-based methods is making this true. X-ray absorption spectroscopy is ideal for the study of structural dynamics in liquids, because it can be implemented in amorphous media. Furthermore, it is chemically selective. Using X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) in laser pump/X-ray probe experiments allows the retrieval of the local geometric structure of the system under study, but also the underlying photoinduced electronic structure changes that drive the structural dynamics. Recent developments in picosecond and femtosecond X-ray absorption spectroscopy applied to molecular systems in solution are reviewed: examples on ultrafast photoinduced processes such as intramolecular electron transfer, low-to-high spin change, and bond formation are presented.
