X-ray spectroscopy is an important tool for scientific analysis. While the earliest
demonstration experiments were realised in the laboratory, with the advent of synchrotron …

Resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) is a powerful technique that combines
spectroscopy and inelastic scattering to probe the electronic structure of materials. RIXS is …

Superconductivity in infinite-layer nickelates holds exciting analogies with that of cuprates,
with similar structures and 3 d-electron count. Using resonant inelastic x-ray scattering, we …

Charge density modulations have been observed in all families of high–critical temperature
(T c) superconducting cuprates. Although they are consistently found in the underdoped …

An overview of both experimental and theoretical results in the field of resonant scattering of
tunable soft and hard x-ray radiation is presented, with a main focus on the closely related …

The presence of different electronic orders other than superconductivity populating the
phase diagram of cuprates suggests that they might be the key to disclose the mysteries of …

The I21 beamline at Diamond Light Source is dedicated to advanced resonant inelastic X-
ray scattering (RIXS) for probing charge, orbital, spin and lattice excitations in materials …

In the last two decades, after the first light from the new Free Electron Lasers, either in the
UV (FLASH [1] and FERMI@ Elettra [2]) or X-ray (LCLS [3] and SACLA [4]), more and more …

The universality of the strange metal phase in many quantum materials is often attributed to
the presence of a quantum critical point (QCP), a zero-temperature phase transition ruled by …

Although charge density waves (CDWs) are omnipresent in cuprate high-temperature
superconductors, they occur at significantly different wave vectors, confounding efforts to …
