Selenium Valence-to-Core X-ray Emission Spectroscopy and Kβ HERFD X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy as Complementary Probes of Chemical and Electronic Structure
[Image: see text] Selenium X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) has found widespread use in investigations of Se-containing materials, geochemical processes, and biologically active sites. In contrast to sulfur Kβ X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES), which has been found to contain electronic and struc...

description | [Image: see text] Selenium X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) has found widespread use in investigations of Se-containing materials, geochemical processes, and biologically active sites. In contrast to sulfur Kβ X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES), which has been found to contain electronic and structural information complementary to S XAS, Se Kβ XES remains comparatively underexplored. Herein, we present the first Se Valence-to-Core (VtC) XES studies of reduced Se-containing compounds and FeSe dimers. Se VtC XES is found to be sensitive to changes in covalent Se bonding interactions (Se–Se/Se–C/Se–H bonding) while being relatively insensitive to changes in Fe oxidation states as selenide bridges in FeSe dimers ([Fe(2)Se(2)](2+) vs [Fe(2)Se(2)](+)). In contrast, Se Kβ HERFD XAS is demonstrated to be quite sensitive to changes in the Fe oxidation state with Se Kβ HERFD XAS demonstrating experimental resolution equivalent to Kα HERFD XAS. Additionally, computational studies reveal both Se VtC XES and XAS to be sensitive to selenium protonation in FeSe complexes. |
