Ls. Hsu, ELECTRONIC-STRUCTURE STUDY OF CO-GA INTERMETALLIC COMPOUNDS AND FE-GAALLOY USING X-RAY PHOTOEMISSION SPECTROSCOPY, Journal of physics and chemistry of solids, 59(5), 1998, pp. 651-657
Polycrystalline CoGa and Co0.58Ga0.42 intermetallic compounds and the
Fe-Ga ahoy have been studied by X-ray photoemission spectroscopy. The
two-hole bound state is absent in these materials, and the electron co
rrelation effect is rather weak in CoGa and Co0.58Ga0.42 The observed
valence band spectrum for CoGa agrees well with the band structure cal
culation of Whittle er al. (J. Phys. F, 1982, 12, 303). The electronic
specific heat coefficient for CoGa is estimated to be 3.5 mJ mol(-1)
