Unraveling the nature of charge excitations in La2CuO4 with momentum-resolved Cu K-edge resonant inelastic X-ray scattering

PDF Version Also Available for Download.

Description

Results of model calculations using exact diagonalization reveal the orbital character of states associated with different Raman loss peaks in Cu K-edge resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) from La{sub 2}CuO{sub 4}. The model includes electronic orbitals necessary to highlight non-local Zhang-Rice singlet, charge transfer and d-d excitations, as well as states with apical oxygen 2p{sub z} character. The dispersion of these excitations is discussed with prospects for resonant final state wave-function mapping. A good agreement with experiments emphasizes the substantial multi-orbital character of RIXS profiles in the energy transfer range 1-6 eV.
