The electronic structures of the itinerant ferromagnets Cr_1-x_Te (x=0.05, 0.25, and 0.375) have been studied by photoemission spectroscopy. The valence-band spectra are compared with the density of states given by band structure calculations. In spite of the itinerant nature of the d electrons, disagreement between the photoemission spectra and the band-structure calculations exists in the magnitude of the d-band exchange splitting and the spectral weight at the Fermi level and 2–4 eV below it: The occupied d band for x=0.05 is shifted away from the Fermi level; the observed spectral weight at the Fermi level is significantly suppressed compared with the band structure calculations for x=0.05 and 0.375, where the nominal d-electron numbers are close to integers 4 and 3, respectively. Configuration-interaction cluster-model calculations have been made for x=0.05 and 0.375 to explain the spectral weight distribution in the high-binding-energy (2–4 eV) region in terms of electron-correlation effects. The d-d on-site Coulomb energy is estimated to be significant, U=2 eV, and nearly equal to or smaller than the charge-transfer energy Δ=2–3 eV.

We have extended the single-impurity cluster model to include the effects of charge transfer to the conduction band. It is found that these effects can have a considerable influence on the line shapes of core-level spectra of small-gap transition-metal compounds. Using a few additional, well-defined parameters to describe the interactions between the local cluster and the conduction band, and retaining the original intracluster parameters from previous single-impurity models, we find an improved agreement for the Ni 2p spectrum of NiS. The asymmetric line shape is well reproduced, keeping the correct satellite to main peak ratio, which is not possible using the three-peak structure of previous models. The new model is less successful in explaining effects beyond standard single-impurity models in more ionic compounds, such as the double-peak stucture of the main line of the core-level spectrum of NiO, where the interactions between the metal d site and the conduction band are expected to play a lesser role.

We report the following two remarks of the Rh impurity effect on the charge-transfer (CT) type nonmetallic state (below the nonmetal-metal transition temperature: T_t_) of 3d transition metal compound NiS. (1) Although the nearest neighbouring M-M (Ni or Rh) and S-S distances increase with increasing x, dT_t_/dx<0. The Rh substitution gives a broad peak with the Fermi edge. A positive sign of T-linear contribution of the thermoelectric power turns to negative one at the critical concentration (x_c_) in Ni_1-x_Rh_x_S. Below T_t_, a Curie constant is observed and increases with increasing x. It is suggested that an impurity band introduced by the Rh atoms leads a change of the electronic state of Ni atoms and the suppression of the CT gap. (2) An empirical relation (dT_t_/dC_N_ >0) is found on Ni_1-x_Rh_x_S, Ni_1-δ_S and NiS_1-y_Se_y_, where C_N_ is the phonon-drag coefficient. The slope dT_t_/dC_N_ becomes smaller in Ni_1-x_M_x_S with the early 3d transition metal impurities (M: Ti, V and Cr).

We have extended the single-impurity cluster model to include the effects of charge transfer to the conduction band for the interpretation of the core level photoemission spectra of highly correlated, small-gap semiconducting and metallic transition metal compounds. The model includes the charge fluctuations between the local transition metal site and the conduction band and has been successfully applied to reinterpret the spectra of some 3d transition metal chalcogenides, reproducing well the large asymmetry of the main peaks, as well as the other satellite structures.

We have measured high-resolution photoemission spectra of NiS, which undergoes a nonmetal-metal transition at Tt~260 K. Below Tt, a small band gap opens; the band edge is essentially a step function broadened only by ~ 15 meV. This observation is difficult to reconcile with one-electron band theory, which predicts a much broader band edge, implying a dramatic influence of electron correlation on quasiparticle excitations and on the opening of a band gap in 3D antiferromagnetic insulators.

Effect of Early Transition-Metal (M=Ti, V and Cr) Doping on the Electronic Structure of Charge-Transfer Type Compound NiS Studied by Thermoelectric Power and X-Ray Photoemission Measurements

The M 2p core-level XPS peaks of doped elements in Ni1-xMxS are observed at the binding energies of M in “M2S3” rather than those of “MS” below and above the nonmetal-metal transition temperature (T t), indicating that the M atom are ionized to M3+ and acts as shallow donor impuritites. Below T t the T1/2 contribution with negative sign to the thermoelectric power (S) is superimposed on the usual degenerate semiconductive contribution with positive sign. It overcomes the latter contribution above a concentration (x c). The value of x c increases in the order of M=Ti, V and Cr. These results indicate that the T1/2 contribution to S comes from variable range hopping through the localized states formed near E F within the narrow charge-transfer gap of the parent NiS. Above T t the sign of S is negative in the electron-doped Ni1-xMxS as well as in the hole-doped Ni1-xS, suggesting that they have the Fermi surface topology.

In order to reveal the microscopic origin of the metal-nonmetal transition in NiS, we have studied the Ni 2p x-ray-absorption spectra of substituted systems Ni_1-x_M_x_S (M=Fe,Co), whose transition temperature T_t_ varies from 500 K (Ni_0.5_Fe_0.5_S) to below 4 K (Ni_0.94_Co_0.06_S). Spectra taken at room temperature have been analyzed using a configuration-interaction cluster model to deduce changes in the electronic structure parameters, namely, the S-3p-to-Ni-3d charge-transfer energy Δ and the Ni3d –S3p transfer integral T. We find that Fe substitution does not increase the local Ni-S distance as would be expected from the lattice parameters but affects energy levels as is reflected in Δ. The changes in Δ and T derived from the cluster-model analysis explain the increase in the charge-transfer-type band gap in Ni_1-x_Fe_x_S and hence the increase in T_t_ within the cluster model, whereas they do not explain the decrease in T_t_ in Ni_1-x_Co_x_S. In order to explain the dramatic decrease in T_t_ with Co substitution, we propose that the Ni3d–Co3d hybridization increases the bandwidths leading to the closure of the band gap.

The effect of Rh substitution on the electronic structure of charge transfer type compound NiS is studied by XPS. We find the following results. (1) A narrow band is newly superimposed on the main peak (d^8^L) of NiS in the valence band region and its width increases with x. (2) The peak position and the line shape of Rh 3d core level spectra are very close to that of Rh metal. (3) The S 2s and the S 2p_3/2_ core level peaks shift toward higher binding energy (E_B_) with increasing x. (4) The Ni 2p_3/2_ core level main peak (d^9^L) shifts toward lower E_B_ with increasing x. (5) The E_B_ separation of the Ni 2p_3/2_ main and satellite peaks decreases as x increases, while the relative intensity of the latter peak to the former one increases. We suggest a tentative model that a Mott-Hubbard type metallic d-band is superimposed on charge transfer type host NiS, and that this contribution is one of the electronic origin for dT_t_/dx<0 reported previously. The origin of the metallic band is attributed to the Rh-Rh and/or Ni-Rh interactions in Ni_1-x_Rh_x_S.
