Abstract

Thermoreflectance measurements on LiF and KCl were made from 10 to 30 eV using synchrotron radiation. Analysis of the differential dielectric and electron-energy-loss functions shows that the energy-loss peak generally attributed to the valence plasmon actually arises from the plasmon and overlapping longitudinal-exciton-like peak(s).
