Abstract

Photon-excited Ti L fluorescence spectra were measured for cubic barium strontium titanate (BSTO) using tunable synchrotron radiation near the Ti L-edge. Elastic (recombination) peaks were observed around Ti L₃ and L₂ resonances, especially strong at the L₃ resonance, while inelastic peaks were observed from well below the resonance and showed complex features at the excitation energies between the Ti L₃ and L₂ resonances. The measured spectra were explained based on radiative and non-radiative electronic processes near the Ti-L_2,3 edge in the titanate
