Cu L3, Ni L3, S L2,3, and Se M2,3 X-ray emission spectra (XES) were measured near thresholds at Beamline 8.0 of the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory's Advanced Light Source. XES measurements of the constituent atoms of these compounds, reduced to the same binding energy scale, are found to be in excellent agreement with XPS valence bands. The calculated XES spectra which include dipole matrix elements show that the partial density of states reproduce experimental spectra quite well. States near the Fermi level (EF) have strong Rh d and S(Se) p character in all compounds. In NiRh2S4 the Ni 3d states contribute strongly at EF, whereas in both Cu compounds the Cu 3d bands are only ~1 eV wide and centered ~2.5 eV below EF, leaving very little 3d character at EF. The density of states at the Fermi level is less in NiRh2S4 than in CuRh2S4. This difference may contribute to the observed decrease, as a function of Ni concentration, in the superconducting transition temperature in Cu1-xNixRh2S4. The density of states of the ordered alloy Cu0.5Ni0.5Rh2S4 shows behavior that is more “split-band”-like than “rigid-band”-like.}, pages = {4230--4237}, title = {Electronic structure of Cu1-xNixRh2S4 and CuRh2Se4 : Band-structure calculations, X-ray photoemission, and fluorescence measurements}, volume = {61}, year = {2000}, yomi = {ナガタ, ショウイチ} }
