X-ray Fluorescence Holography: Principles, Apparatus, and Applications

摘要

X-ray fluorescence holography (XFH) is an atomic structure determination technique that combines the capabilities of X-ray diffraction and X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy It provides a unique means of gaining fully three-dimensional information about the local atomic structure and lattice site positions ol selected elements inside compound samples In this work, we discuss experimental and theoretical aspects that are essential for the efficient recording and analysis of X-ray fluorescence holograms and review the most recent advances in XFH. We describe experiments performed with brilliant synchrotron radiation as well as with tabletop setups that employ conventional X-ray tubes.
