Abstract

High-resolution measurements of the molybdenum L heavy-ion-induced X-ray satellite emission (HIXSE) spectra of a series of Mo alloys and compounds have been obtained with a new, high-efficiency, high-resolution Bragg crystal spectrometer in the von Hamos geometry. The improved resolution (5 eV at 2.3 keV) is sufficient to reveal the LnMm configuration lines in the Lα and Lβ hypersatellite bands. Both sets of lines exhibit the same trend in the variation of the relative yield distribution with the chemical environment as was observed for KLn lines of lower Z targets. Difference spectra, using elemental molybdenum as a subtrahend, enhance the systematic variation. These results confirm the analysis and conclusions of lower resolution studies. They also indicate a potential for even greater sensitivity to the chemical environment.
