Soft x-ray absorption spectroscopy studies of (110) YBa2Cu3O6.9 thin film

Abstract

Evolution of ferromagnetic clustering in Pr0.5Ca0.5MnO3 and its effect on the critical temperature of YBa2Cu3O7 thin film

Doping evolution of Zhang-Rice singlet spectral weight: A comprehensive examination by x-ray absorption spectroscopy

“…Details of XAS experiments can be found elsewhere. 13,14 All thin films were about 300 nm thick to avoid the absorption contribution from the oxide substrates. The selfabsorption corrections were applied to these spectra to correct the saturation effects.…”

Spatially resolved relaxation dynamics of photoinduced quasiparticles in underdopedYBa2Cu3O7−δ

“…The detailed growth conditions and structure-property characterizations of the films were reported elsewhere [10][11][12]. The percentage of the in-plane alignment for both (100) and (110) films was larger than 97% as determined by the x-ray Φ-scanning.…”

“…The percentage of the in-plane alignment for both (100) and (110) films was larger than 97% as determined by the x-ray Φ-scanning. In order to distinguish the directions of the axes in the thin film plane, the polarized x-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy (XANES) of the O K-edge was carried out and successfully identified the a-, b-, and c-axes of YBCO thin films [10,11]. In addition, we used the encapsulated bulk annealing method [13] to manipulate the oxygen content of the YBCO films.…”
