We analyze the recent experiment [W. Neubeck {\em et al.}, Phys. Rev. B \vol(60,1999,R9912)] for the resonant x-ray magnetic scattering (RXMS) around the K edge of Co in the antiferromagnet CoO. We propose a mechanism of the RXMS to make…
We study noncentrosymmetric effects on resonant x-ray scattering (RXS) in magnetite. The noncentrosymmetry at A sites in spinel structure makes the 4p states strongly hybridize with the 3d states through neighboring oxygen 2p states, giving…
We investigate mixed-valence oxide Co$_3$O$_4$ using Co $2p3d$ resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS). By setting resonant edges at Co$^{2+}$ and Co$^{3+}$ ions, the $dd$ excitations on the two Co sites are probed selectively, providing…
