A method to calibrate and stabilize the incident X-ray energy for anomalous diffraction data collection is provided and has been successfully used at the single-crystal diffraction beamline 1W2B at the Beijing Synchrotron Radiation Facilities. Employing a feedback loop to control the movement of the double-crystal monochromator, this new method enables the incident X-ray energy to be kept within a 0.2 eV range at the inflection point of the absorption edge.

X-ray microscopy is a field that has developed rapidly in recent years. Two different approaches have been used. Zone plates have been employed to produce focussed beams with sizes as low as 0.07 pm for x-ray energies below 1 keV. Images of biological materials and elemental maps for major and minor low Z have been produced using above and below absorption edge differences. At higher energies collimators and focussing mirrors have been used to make small diameter beams for excitation of characteristic K— or L-x rays of all elements in the periodic table.

The use of synchrotron radiation sources for X-ray spectroscopy is a well known and developed field. The majority of applications, however, have been limited to studies of materials containing only a single phase of the element of interest. Owing to limited availability of suitable instrumentation, the study of materials comprising intergrowths of different phases has presented difficulties in analysis. The majority of natural materials, including mineralogical samples, fall into this category. However, by applying the technique of photoemission electron microscopy (PEEM) to view the X-ray stimulated photoemission generated at an absorption edge, micro-area-selectable spectroscopy becomes possible. An instrument for X-ray PEEM (X-PEEM) is being developed at the Daresbury SRS and this paper shows how it can be used to obtain characteristic L-edge XANES spectra from finely intergrown iron oxide minerals.

L shell fluorescence and Coster–Kronig yields for W and Re were deduced from synchrotron radiation induced X-ray line intensities measured at different incident energies across the Li absorption edge energies of both elements based on HFS and DHF models.

A diffraction system has been constructed at the Synchrotron Radiation Centre at Ritsumeikan University, in which a wide-band parallel X-ray beam is produced by reflection from the depth-graded multilayer monochromator. The band width is 600 eV and the monochromator is useful in the photon energy range from 6500 to 7700 eV. In diffraction patterns of an oscillating single crystal recorded using the beam, Bragg reflections appear in an elongated form on an imaging-plate detector and, if the absorption edge of an atom in the crystal is included in the band, a characteristic intensity profile is seen due to anomalous dispersion. As an application of the system, the absolute configuration was determined for a newly synthesized compound, 4-(1-hydroxyethyl)phenylferrocene, C18H18FeO, with an enantiomorphic structure, choosing the Fe atoms as anomalous scatterers. In the intensity profiles of the Friedel pairs of reflections, clear contrast between the pair was observed at the absorption edge, leading unequivocally to theSform. Further possible application of the wide-bandpass parallel beam is discussed.

AbstractUsing Synchrotron radiation, the dependence of resonant phenomena (absorption, fluorescence and Raman scattering) on the angle between the polarisation plane of the incident radiation and the polar c-axis in ferroelectric Lithium-niobate, LiNbO3, was studied in the vicinity of the Nb K-absorption edge. Applying the "optical theorem", the observed dipolar anisotropics can be explained in terms of the projection of the dipole momentum operator on the polarisation vector of the X-ray photons.
