Abstract

We have studied the magnetic and orbital orderings in Cu 3d orbitals of KCuF₃ by using Cu K-edge resonant X-ray scattering. For the orbital reflection (1 0 5) at quadrupole transition, however, no cleartransition was observed about 40 K. This shows that the coupling between spins and orbitals in Cu 3d orbitalsis small in type-a orbital ordering of KCuF₃.
