Resonant L α x‐ray emission spectra (RXES) and resonant LMM Auger emission spectra (RAES) of Yttrium compounds were measured across YL III absorption threshold. When the incident photon energy is bellow the absorption threshold, only Raman scattering component is commonly observed in both spectra. Above the absorption threshold, Raman and normal L α (or normal LMM Auger) emission peaks are observed in insulator samples. These spectral features are almost same in both RXES and RAES processes, except for the relative intensity ratio between these Raman peaks and normal L α (or normal LMM Auger) emission peaks. Comparing these two spectra, useful information about the deexcitation of core hole can be obtained.
