The exciton-phonon coupling in highly oriented pyrolytic graphite is studied using resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) spectroscopy. With ~ 70 meV energy resolution, multiple low energy excitations associated with coupling to phonons can be clearly resolved in RIXS spectra. Using resonance dependence and the closed form for RIXS cross-section without considering the intermediate state mixing of phonon modes, the dimensionless coupling constant g is determined to be 5 and 0.4, corresponding to the coupling strength of 0.42 eV +/- 40 meV and 0.21 eV +/- 30 meV, for zone center and boundary phonons respectively. The reduced g value for zone-boundary phonon may be related to its double resonance nature.

  1. Ultrafast dynamics of vibronically dressed core-excitons in graphite: a femtosecond RIXS perspective

    cond-mat.mtrl-sci 2025-04 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Time-resolved RIXS at an X-ray free-electron laser shows that optical excitation of graphite reduces the apparent core-exciton-phonon coupling strength, with ultrafast dynamics that depend on the X-ray detuning.
