Description
The electronic band structure of graphene was calculated using the full-potential linearized muffin-tin orbital (FP-LMTO) method. Its resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) spectra at various x-ray excitation energies were calculated based on Kramers-Heisenberg equation. It is found that the RIXS spectra show distinct dispersive features and are interpreted as being due to the conservation
of crystal momentum during the RIXS process. However, the shift between XAS and XES energy scales due to the presence or absence of the core hole in the final state of these two processes, respectively, has to be taken into account, in order to obtain an optimal agreement between the simulated and experimental RIXS spectral. This shift is consistent with the observed changes in
calculated PDOS induced by the presence of the core hole.
