Definition
An absorption edge is a sharp discontinuity in the absorption spectrum of X-rays by an element that occurs when the energy of the photon corresponds to the energy of a shell of the atom (K, LI, LII, LIII, etc.).
Examples
For gallium: [math]\lambda_{K}[/math] = 1.1958 Ǻ; [math]\lambda_{L_{I}}[/math] = 9.5446 Ǻ; [math]\lambda_{L_{II}}[/math] = 10.8414 Ǻ; [math]\lambda_{L_{III}}[/math]= 11.1038 Ǻ;
For arsenic: [math]\lambda_{K}[/math] = 1.0448 Ǻ; [math]\lambda_{L_{I}}[/math] = 8.1195 Ǻ; [math]\lambda_{L_{II}}[/math] = 9.1187 Ǻ; [math]\lambda_{L_{III}}[/math]= 9.3617 Ǻ;
