Description

We have studied the charge carrier doping dependent changes in the valence band electronic structure of the Pr1-xSrxMnO3 system across the orbital ordered compositions using ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy. The dx2-y2 orbital ordering is found to be causing an enhancement of the Mn 3d-O 2p hybridization strength and thereby the Mn 3d contribution to the subbands in the valence region. Our photoemission studies using different photon energies help in elucidating the nature and composition of the valence band features
