Detailed resonant X-ray emission spectra (XES) and these polarization dependences of Ti2O3 were obtained by excitation at the Ti 2p absorption edge. About 100 XES spectra were observed in different polarization configurations. X-ray Raman scattering spectra showed two types of crystal field (dd) excitations as well as charge-transfer (CT) excitations. Bulk states of the powder sample were obtained by the XES measurement, which is the photon-in/photon-out method. Partial photon yields (PPYs) of some elementary excitations were extracted from the XES spectra. The CT excitations were hidden in total electron yield spectra, but these were revealed by PPY measurements. Symmetry information of these excitations was acquired on the basis of polarization dependences.
