Abstract: | The valence band density of states (VBDOS) of the insulating oxides SrTiO3, TiO2, SrO, MgO and Al2O3 obtained by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), are reported. Qualitatively, the VBDOS of these oxides are similar to one another. The XPS results are compared with results from soft X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES), ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy (UPS), and theoretical calculations. There are some differences (in particular for TiO2) between the XES and XPS results, which are probably due to matrix element effects enhancing different features of the VBDOS in the two techniques. The XPS results definitively establish the position of the O 2s level, which had been erroneously assigned in previous low-energy UPS measurements. Cluster-type calculations are demonstrated to give a reasonable representation of the VBDOS for the oxides. |
