Electronic structure of highly ordered Sr2FeMoO6: XPS and XES studies

We have investigated the partial densities of states of Sr2FeMoO6 by applying soft x-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) to the Fe L, the Mo M and the O K edges. We discuss the results in the light of complementary measurements of the valence band by means of x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and first-principles generalized gradient approximation (GGA) and LDA +U band structure calculations.
