Abstract
We present an extension of an ab initio numerical tool calculating X-ray absorption spectroscopies and crystal orbital overlap populations at the same time. Density functional theory is used to calculate the electronic structure in both occupied (valence to core X-ray emission spectroscopy) and nonoccupied states (i.e., X-ray absorption near the edge structure and X-ray magnetic circular dichroism) and to evaluate the orbital overlap typifying the covalency between neighboring atoms. We show how the different features in the experimental spectra can be correlated to the chemical bonds around the absorbing atoms in several examples including acrylonitrile molecules, rutile TiO2, Li2RuO3 high-energy density cathode, ZnO, and anti-ferromagnetic V2O3.
