Trends in the Carbonyl Core (C 1S, O 1S) → π*<sub>C=O</sub> Transition in the Near-Edge X-ray Absorption Fine Structure Spectra of Organic Molecules
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Carbonyl core (C 1s, O 1s) → π* C O transitions are distinctive in the near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectra of species containing carbonyl groups. These features are used for the chemical microanalysis of organic materials using X-ray microscopy. We have explored the chemical sensitivity of these features in C 1s and O 1s NEXAFS spectra for a series of polymers containing the carbonyl group in a range of different bonding environments. Ab initio calculations are used to explain the origin of the observed trends and to explore the effect that orbital interactions have on the energy of these core (C 1s, O 1s) → π* C O features. The differences between the experimental and the calculated carbonyl core (C 1s, O 1s) → π* C O transition energies are systematic and can be used to develop a semiempirical method for predicting the absolute (experimental) transition energies from the calculated transition energies. This relationship is applied to a large body of calculated transition energy data to prepare correlation diagrams for the carbonyl (C 1s, O 1s) → π* C O transitions. These correlation diagrams will be useful for the analytical application of NEXAFS spectroscopy to organic materials.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
