Abstrakt: A study of the Mn K absorption pre-edges in oxides using resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) spectroscopy is presented. The energy transfer dimension enhances the separation of the pre-edge (predominantly 1s to 3d transitions) from the main K-edge and a detailed analysis is thus possible. The RIXS spectra are sensitive to the Mn spin state. The technique thus yields detailed information on the electronic structure that is not accessible in conventional K-edge absorption spectroscopy. The line splittings can be understood within a ligand field multiplet model, showing the importance of (2p,3d) two-electron interactions that give rise to the spin-sensitivity.
