Resonant inelastic soft x-ray scattering on LaPt2Si2
Journal article, 2022

X-ray absorption and resonant inelastic x-ray scattering spectra of LaPt2Si2single crystal at the Si 2pand La 4dedges are presented. The data are interpreted in terms of density functional theory, showing that the Si spectra can be described in terms of Sisanddlocal partial density of states (LPDOS), and the La spectra are due to quasi-atomic local 4fexcitations. Calculations show that Ptd-LPDOS dominates the occupied states, and a sharp localized Lafstate is found in the unoccupied states, in line with the observations.
