Thèse de doctorat : Université de Fribourg, 2017 ; no. 2052.

The present PhD thesis includes three different projects which belong to the domain of inner-shell atomic physics and high energy resolution X-ray spectroscopy. The first project consists of a series of in-house measurements of the characteristic K and L X-ray absorption spectra (XAS) of several 3d, 4d and 5d transition metals. For this project the target chamber of the von Hamos curved crystal...

Investigation of surface nanostructures with grazing angle x-ray fluorescence techniques

Nowak, Stanisław H. ; Dousse, Jean-Claude (Dir.)

Thèse de doctorat : Université de Fribourg, 2012 ; no. 1768.

The present Ph.D. thesis was realized in the Atomic and X-Ray Physics (AXP) research group of Prof. Jean-Claude Dousse at the Physics Department of the University of Fribourg. It is devoted to the development of high-resolution X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) methods at grazing angles, namely the Grazing Emission (GEXRF) and Grazing Incidence (GIXRF) X-Ray Fluorescence methods. These grazing angle...
