一种新的技术敏感的分子取向和几何形状,并基于测量X射线发射的偏振,已被应用于含氯分子甲基氯(CH{sub 3}Cl)和氯氟甲烷(CF{sub 3}Cl,CF{sub 2}Cl{sub 2},和CFCl{sub 3})在气相中。选择性激发后,使用单色同步辐射在Cl {ital K}-边缘(Cl 1 s)近阈值区域,偏振选择性X射线发射研究揭示了高度偏振的分子{ital价}的X射线荧光的所有四个分子。偏振发射的取向度和取向度对Cl {italK}边附近的入射激发能敏感。在某些情况下,X射线发射的偏振方向会因入射激发能的微小变化(几eV)而反转。它表明,偏振X射线发射技术可以用来推断,直接从实验中,占据和未占据价分子轨道的对称性,在吸收和发射的各向异性,取向和几何信息。这表明,X射线偏振荧光现象,这里报道的简单分子,可以作为一种新的方法来研究更复杂的系统在各种环境中。
A new technique sensitive to molecular orientation and geometry, and based on measuring the polarization of x-ray emission, has been applied to the Cl-containing molecules methyl chloride (CH{sub 3}Cl) and the chlorofluoromethanes (CF{sub 3}Cl, CF{sub 2}Cl{sub 2}, and CFCl{sub 3}) in the gas phase. Upon selective excitation using monochromatic synchrotron radiation in the Cl {ital K}-edge (Cl 1s) near-threshold region, polarization-selective x-ray emission studies reveal highly polarized molecular {ital valence} x-ray fluorescence for all four molecules. The degree {ital and} the orientation of the polarized emission are observed to be sensitive to the incident excitation energy near the Cl {ital K} edge. In some cases, the polarization direction for x-ray emission reverses for small changes in incident excitation energy (a few eV). It is shown that the polarized x-ray emission technique can be used to infer, directly from experiment, symmetries of occupied and unoccupied valence molecular orbitals, an- isotropies in absorption and emission, and orientational and geometrical information. It is suggested that the x-ray polarized-fluorescence phenomenon, reported here for simple molecules, can be used as a new approach to study more complicated systems in a variety of environments.
