  • Descrição: Although actinide (An) L sub(3)-edge X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy has been very effective in determining An oxidation states in insulating, ionically bonded materials, such as in certain coordination compounds and mineral systems, the technique fails in systems featuring more delocalized 5f orbitals, especially in metals. Recently, actinide L sub(3)-edge resonant X-ray emission spectroscopy (RXES) has been shown to be an effective alternative. This technique is further demonstrated here using a parameterized partial unoccupied density of states method to quantify both occupancy and delocalization of the 5f orbital in alpha -Pu, delta -Pu, PuCoGa sub(5), PuCoIn sub(5), and PuSb sub(2). These new results, supported by FEFF calculations, highlight the effects of strong correlations on RXES spectra and the technique's ability to differentiate between f-orbital occupation and delocalization.
