Measurement method of inelastic X-ray spectroscopy that uses a hard or soft X-ray beam to excite transitions of core-level electrons into empty energy levels. The subsequent transition of an electron into the core state is accompanied by X-ray emission with characteristic momentum and energy.
Note:
The incident photon energy is selected for resonance with an X-ray absorption edge of the system, such that the observed shifts in momentum and energy provide element-specific chemical sensitivity, with the capacity to distinguish the same element located at inequivalent sites.
