説明:
(abstract)The valence band electronic structures of the elemental solids of 4f rare-earths (REs: La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, and Lu) were studied by bulk-sensitive polarization-dependent hard X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (HAXPES). Owing to the localized 4f electrons in REs, the valence band (VB) region showed complicated multiplet structures reflecting the 4f photoemission final states, except for La and Ce. The profiles of the 4f multiplet structures did not depend on the X-ray polarization. In contrast, the VB spectra, which mainly consisted of the 5d and 6s states, near the Fermi-level (EF) weakly depended on the X-ray polarization. The polarization-dependent VB spectra near EF for La and Lu were reproduced by the 5d and 6s partial densities of states, which were obtained from the density functional theory calculations for La and Lu, multiplied by photoionization cross-sections. The complicated multiplet structures were also observed in the 3d and 4d core-level HAXPES spectra via the exchange interaction between the core-hole and 4f electrons.
