X-ray photoelectron 3s spectra of transition metal oxides

Abstract

Description

We present metal 3s x-ray photoelectron spectra of different transition metal oxides. The values of the 3s exchange splitting for the 3d metal oxides are given as a function of the 3d electron number in the ground state. The spectra were analysed using the simple two-configuration model of the interatomic configuration mixing. The change of the 3s spectra is ascribed to the change of the charge-transfer energy.
