Valence-to-core X-ray emission spectroscopy of titanium compounds using energy dispersive detectors.

ABSTRACT: X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) of transition metal compounds is a powerful tool for investigating the spin and oxidation state of the metal centers. Valence-to-core (vtc) XES is of special interest, as it contains information on the ligand nature, hybridization, and protonation. To date, most vtc-XES studies have been performed with high-brightness sources, such as synchrotrons, due to the weak fluorescence lines from vtc transitions. Here, we present a systematic study of the vtc-XES for different titanium compounds in a laboratory setting using an X-ray tube source and energy dispersive microcalorimeter sensors. With a full-width at half-maximum energy resolution of approximately 4 eV at the Ti Kβ lines, we measure the XES features of different titanium compounds and compare our resul
