S. Suga et al., LA 4D AND MN CORE ABSORPTION MAGNETIC CIRCULAR-DICHROISM, XPS AND INVERSE-PHOTOEMISSION SPECTROSCOPY OF LA1-XSRXMNO3, Journal of electron spectroscopy and related phenomena, 78, 1996, pp. 283-286
An appreciable magnetic circular dichroism is found for the La 4d -->
4f core absorption in a ferromagnetic La0.84Sr0.16MnO3. An ordered mom
ent of the La 4f state with its spin parallel to the Mn 3d majority sp
in is revealed. The x-ray photoemission spectra have shown satellite s
tructures of the La 3d, 4d and O 1s core states besides the Mn 2p and
3p states. Appreciable hybridization between the La 4f, La 5d, O 2p an
d Mn 3d states in the core hole excited states are clarified.
