We will describe how resonant elastic and inelastic x-ray scattering (REXS and RIXS) yield comprehensive, energy- and momentum resolved information about the ground state and excitation spectra of quantum materials. The unprecedented sensitivity of RIXS now allows experiments on dispersive excitations in monolayers and microcrystals of complex quantum materials that were hard to imagine just a few years ago.
We will go through several examples where REXS and RIXS have yielded qualitatively new insight:
- three-dimensional charge order in cuprates under uniaxial and biaxial strain
- magnetic order and dynamics in nickel-oxide films and superlattices, and
- initial RIXS experiments on spin waves and spin-state transitions in ruthenates.
