====== RIXS $L_{2,3}M_{1}$ ======

###
Instead of looking at low energy excitations one can use RIXS to look at core-core excitations. A powerful technique comparable to other core level spectroscopies like x-ray absorption and core-level photoemission at once.
###

###
Here a script to calculate the Ni $2p$ to $3d$ excitation ($L_{2,3}$) and Ni $3s$ to $2p$ decay ($M_{1}$).
<code Quanty RIXS_L23M1.Quanty>
-- This example calculates core - core RIXS spectra. These type of spectra are
-- highly informative and contain similar information as core level absorption and
-- core level photoemission combined. With generally enhances sensitivity.

-- we focus here on 2p to 3d excitations (L23) and 3s to 2p decay (final hole in the 3s
-- state, the M1 edge)

-- we minimize the output by setting the verbosity to 0
Verbosity(0)

-- We need the 2p, 3s and 3d shell in the basis

-- next we define the dipole operator. The dipole operator is given as epsilon.r
-- with epsilon the polarization vector of the light and r the unit position vector
-- We can expand the position vector on (renormalized) spherical harmonics and use
-- the crystal-field operator to create the dipole operator. 

-- we both define the dipole operator between the 2p and 3d shell as well as the dipole

TXASr = sqrt(1/2)*(TXASx - I * TXASy)
TXASl =-sqrt(1/2)*(TXASx + I * TXASy)

-- we can remove zero's from the dipole operator by chopping it.
TXASr.Chop()

-- once all operators are defined we can set some parameter values.

-- the value of U drops out of a crystal-field calculation as the total number of electrons
-- is always the same
U       =  0.000 
-- F2 and F4 are often referred to in the literature as J_{Hund}. They represent the energy
-- differences between different multiplets. Numerical values can be found in the back of
-- my PhD. thesis for example. http://arxiv.org/abs/cond-mat/0505214 
F2dd    = 11.142

-- F0 is not the same as U, although they are related. Unimportant in crystal-field theory
-- the difference between U and F0 is so important that I do include it here. (U=0 so F0 is not)
F0dd    = U+(F2dd+F4dd)*2/63
-- in crystal field theory U drops out of the equation, also true for the interaction between the 
-- Ni 2p and Ni 3d electrons
Upd     =  0.000 
-- The Slater integrals between the 2p and 3d shell, again the numerical values can be found
-- in the back of my PhD. thesis. (http://arxiv.org/abs/cond-mat/0505214)

F0sd    =  Usd + G2sd/10
-- tenDq in NiO is 1.1 eV as can be seen in optics or using IXS to measure d-d excitations
tenDq   =  1.100
-- the Ni 3d spin-orbit is small but finite
zeta_3d =  0.081
-- the Ni 2p spin-orbit is very large and should not be scaled as theory is quite accurate here
zeta_2p = 11.498
-- we can add a small magnetic field, just to get nice expectation values. (units in eV... )
Bz      = 0.000001

-- the total Hamiltonian is the sum of the different operators multiplied with their prefactor
Hamiltonian = F0dd*OppF0 + F2dd*OppF2 + F4dd*OppF4 + tenDq*OpptenDq + zeta_3d*Oppldots + Bz*(2*OppSz+OppLz)

-- We normally do not include core-valence interactions between filed and partially filled 
-- shells as it drops out anyhow. For the XAS we thus need to define a "different" 
-- (more complete) Hamiltonian.
XASHamiltonian = Hamiltonian + zeta_2p * Oppcldots + F0pd * OppUpdF0 + F2pd * OppUpdF2 + G1pd * OppUpdG1 + G3pd * OppUpdG3

-- we now also need the Hamiltonian for the configuration with a core hole in the 3s state
-- here it is:
Hamiltonian3s = Hamiltonian + F0sd * OppUsdF0 + G2sd * OppUsdG2


-- We saw in the previous example that NiO has a ground-state doublet with occupation 
-- t2g^6 eg^2 and S=1 (S^2=S(S+1)=2). The next state is 1.1 eV higher in energy and thus
-- unimportant for the ground-state upto temperatures of 10 000 Kelvin. We thus restrict 
-- the calculation to the lowest 3 eigenstates.
Npsi=3
-- We need a filling of 6 electrons in the 2p shell
-- 2 electrons in the 3s shell
-- and 8 electrons in the 3d shell
StartRestrictions = {NF, NB, {"111111 11 0000000000",8,8}, {"000000 00 1111111111",8,8}}

-- And calculate the lowest 3 eigenfunctions
psiList = Eigensystem(Hamiltonian, StartRestrictions, Npsi)

-- In order to get some information on these eigenstates it is good to plot expectation values
-- We first define a list of all the operators we would like to calculate the expectation value of
oppList={Hamiltonian, OppSsqr, OppLsqr, OppJsqr, OppSz, OppLz, Oppldots, OppF2, OppF4, OppNeg, OppNt2g};

-- next we loop over all operators and all states and print the expectation value
print(" <E>    <S^2>  <L^2>  <J^2>  <S_z>  <L_z>  <l.s>  <F[2]> <F[4]> <Neg>  <Nt2g>");

Just like in the case of $L_{2,3}M_{4,5}$ edge RIXS we can make plots:

{{:documentation:tutorials:nio_crystal_field:rixsl23m1_spec.png?nolink |}}
 
The first shows on the left the XAS spectra in black and the integrated RIXS spectra (FY) in blue. The core-core RIXS is shown on the right. 

{{:documentation:tutorials:nio_crystal_field:rixsl23m1_map.png?nolink |}}

The second plot shows the same RIXS spectra, but now as an intensity map.
