X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) is usually
analyzed in the dipole approximation. This assumes
that the X-ray wavelength, λ, is much larger
than the radius, re, of the shell of the electron
which is being excited.
However, for high excitation energies and small binding energies,
the condition λ ≫ re is not necessarily
fulfilled.
Using an X-ray standing wave (XSW) field as the source
for excitation, we show how to determine both the
magnitude and the phase of the
lowest-order non-dipolar (quadrupole) contributions
to the XPS cross-section.
We find that these contributions can be significant
and that they have to be included in a quantitative
analysis in certain cases [1].
Specifically, we discuss the implications for the
analysis of XSW data.
