Chemical shift in Lα, Lβ1, Lβ3,4, Lβ2,15, Lγ1 and Lγ2,3 emission lines of 47Ag, 48Cd and 50Sn compounds
Abstract
Positive and negative shifts in L shell emission lines of 47Ag, 48Cd and 50Sn elements in different chemical compounds were determined from their recorded X-ray emission spectra in high resolution wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence (WDXRF) spectrometer. In 47Ag compounds, the measured energy shifts in Lα X-ray emission line were in the ranges from (0.12 to 0.40) eV, Lβ1 (0.27 to 0.36) eV, Lβ3,4 (1.10 to 4.89) eV, Lγ1 (-0.09 to 1.13) eV and Lγ2,3 (-2.08 to 0.59) eV. Likewise, for 48Cd compounds, the estimated shifts in Lα X-ray emission lines were in the range (-0.27 to 0.69) eV, Lβ1 (0.50 to 2.06) eV, Lβ2,15 (0.12 to 0.79), Lβ3,4 (-0.62 to 1.79) eV, Lγ1 (0.10 to 1.35) eV and Lγ2,3 (-0.73 to 1.75) eV, while for 50Sn compounds, the measured shifts in Lα X-ray emission lines were in the range of (0.02 to 1.81) eV, Lβ1 (0.11 to 0.78) eV, Lβ2,15 (0.15 to 1.40), Lβ3,4 (0.17 to 2.01) eV, Lγ1 (0.09 to 1.08) eV and Lγ2,3 (0.17 to 1.40) eV respectively. The effective charges (qP, qS, qL and qB) were calculated by four different theoretical methods (Pauling method, Suchet method, Levine method and Batsonav method) and found to be linear dependent with the chemical shift. Further, the measured chemical shifts were correlated with bond length, relative line-width (FWHM), effective charge, electronegativity, number of ligands and Coster-Kronig (CK) transition processes.
