Abstract

We introduce a new experiment method by which site-specific valence-electronic structure may be obtained. It utilizes the x-ray standing-wave interference field that results from the superposition of the incident and reflected x-ray beams within the vicinity of a crystal x-ray Bragg reflection. Resolution of the anion and cation contributions to the GaAs valence-band density of states is demonstrated.
