Abstract
We present a resonant inelastic scattering (RIXS) study using of , which contains a lattice of plaquettes electronically isolated by ions. The observed -edge spectra show a small number of well-separated features, and the simple electronic structure of allows us to explore RIXS phenomenology. We find a low-energy feature that cannot be attributed to the same charge-transfer excitation discussed in other cuprates and is likely a transition thought to be forbidden under common considerations of -edge RIXS.
