Radiative recombination (RR) into the K shell and L subshells of U92+ ions interacting with cooling electrons has been studied in an x-ray RR experiment at the electron cooler of the Experimental Storage Ring at GSI. The measured radiative recombination rate coefficients for electron-ion relative energies in the range 0–1000 meV demonstrate the importance of relativistic effects. The...

The grazing emission X-ray fluorescence (GEXRF) technique was applied to the analysis of different Al films, with nominal thicknesses in the range of 1 nm to 150 nm, on Si wafers. In GEXRF the sample volume from which the fluorescence intensity is detected is restricted to a near-surface region whose thickness can be tuned by varying the observation angle. This is possible because of the...

Various 3-dimensional nano-scaled periodic structures with different configurations and periods deposited on the surface of silicon and silica substrates were investigated by means of the grazing incidence and grazing emission X-ray fluorescence techniques. Apart from the characteristics which are typical for particle- and layer-like samples, the measured angular intensity profiles show...

A detailed investigation of the Lα1,2 (L3→M4,5) and Lβ1 (L2→M4) x-ray satellite and hypersatellite structures in zirconium, molybdenum, and palladium atoms multiply ionized by impact with 278.6-MeV oxygen ions is reported. The x-ray spectra were measured with a high-resolution von Hamos bent crystal spectrometer. For the interpretation of the complex spectral features, relativistic...

Observed enhancement of K-shell radiative recombination (RR) of bare uranium ions with cooling electrons is interpreted in terms of of distant transverse collisions in magnetized electron-cooler plasma described within the semiclassical geometrical model (SGM), which was recently proposed. The Monte Carlo simulations based on the proposed approach explains the enhancement measured in RR of...

We report on the surface-sensitive grazing emission X-ray fluorescence technique combined with synchrotron radiation excitation and high-resolution detection to realize depth-profile measurements of Al-implanted Si wafers. The principles of grazing emission measurements as well as the benefits offered by synchrotron sources and wavelength-dispersive detection setups are presented. It is shown...

An observation of the internal structure of the L-shell hypersatellite x rays resulting from the one-photon decay of L⁻² double-vacancy states in palladium multiply ionized by oxygen ions is reported. The Pd L₃→M4,5 x-ray spectrum was measured with a von Hamos high-resolution crystal spectrometer. The complex shape of the observed spectrum could be interpreted in detail using...

The multiple ionization of the L- and M-shells of Pd by fast oxygen ions has been studied by measuring with high-resolution the satellite structures of the Lα1,2 X-ray transitions. Relativistic multi-configuration Dirac-Fock (MCDF) calculations were used to interpret the complex X-ray spectrum, allowing to derive the number of L- and M-shell spectator vacancies at the moment of the...

The synchrotron radiation based high-resolution grazing emission X-ray fluorescence (GEXRF) technique was used to extract the distribution of Al ions implanted with a dose of 10¹⁶ atoms/cm² in Si wafers with energies ranging between 1 and 100 keV. The depth distributions of the implanted ions were deduced from the measured angular profiles of the Al-Kα X-ray fluorescence line with...

The interpretation of L-shell satellites and hypersatellites for Lα1,2 (L₃→M4,5) and Lβ₁ (L₂→M₄) x-ray transitions in zirconium multiply ionized by oxygen and neon ions is reported. The x-ray spectra were measured with a high-resolution von Hamos spectrometer and interpreted in terms the relativistic...
