Abstract

We find a strong dependence of the strength of the peak in the absorption coeficient at the Ta L3-absorption edge of 1T-TaS2 as a function of the orientation of the x-ray polarization with respect to the crystal layers. This variation can be related to the character of the unfilled d states just above the Fermi energy.
