Photon energy dependent intensity variations observed in Auger spectra of free argon clusters
Author
Summary, in English
Photon energy dependent intensity variations are experimentally observed in the L2,3M2,3M2,3 Auger spectra of argon clusters. Two cluster sizes are examined in the present study. Extrinsic scattering effects, both elastic and inelastic, involving the photoelectron are discussed and suggested as the explanation of the variations in the Auger signal. The atoms in the first few coordination shells surrounding the core-ionized atom are proposed to be the main targets for the scattering processes.
