Description

We have performed an x-ray photoemission (XPS) experiment using tunable x rays in the photon-energy range between 1500 and 3000 eV. The deep metal 3p core-level spectra of the tetravalent oxides MO2, M = Ce, Pr, Tb, and Hf have been measured. The results show that the configuration interaction between localized 4f/sup n/ and 4f/sup n//sup +1/L configuration in the initial state gives final-state peaks 3p4f/sup n/, 3p4f/sup n//sup +1/L, and 3p4f/sup n//sup +2/L2. The final states of Ce 3p core levels of CeO2 have been calculated by the many-body theory in the frame of the filled-band Anderson model
