class ScatteringFactor(**kwargs)[source]

Atomic scattering factors

Parameters:
atomic_number : int

Atomic number

energy : float

Energy in eV

f1 : float

Scattering factor f1

f2 : float

Scattering factor f2

\(f_1\) and \(f_2\) are the atomic (forward) scattering factors. There are 500+ points on a uniform logarithmic mesh with points added 0.1 eV above and below “sharp” absorption edges. (Note: below 29 eV \(f_1\) is set equal to -9999.) The tabulated values of \(f_1\) contain a relativistic, energy independent, correction given by, \(Z^{*} = Z - (Z/82.5)^{2.37}\).

The atomic photoabsorption cross section, \(\mu_a\), may be readily obtained from the values of \(f_2\) using the relation,

\[\mu_a = 2 \cdot r_0 \cdot \lambda \cdot f_2\]

where \(r_0\) is the classical electron radius, and \(\lambda\) is the wavelength.

The index of refraction for a material with N atoms per unit volume is calculated by,

\[n = 1 - N \cdot r_0 \cdot \lambda^2 \cdot (f_1 + i f_2)/(2\cdot\pi).\]

These (semi-empirical) atomic scattering factors are based upon photoabsorption measurements of elements in their elemental state. The basic assumption is that condensed matter may be modeled as a collection of non-interacting atoms. This assumption is in general a good one for energies sufficiently far from absorption thresholds. In the threshold regions, the specific chemical state is important and direct experimental measurements must be made.

These tables are based on a compilation of the available experimental measurements and theoretical calculations. For many elements there is little or no published data and in such cases it was necessary to rely on theoretical calculations and interpolations across Z. In order to improve the accuracy in the future considerably more experimental measurements are needed.
