LaFe3/4Ni1/4O3 was subjected to oxygen near edge x-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy for 300 K < T < 773 K. The spectra show in the pre-edge a small hole doped peak originating from Ni substitution. The relative spectral weight of this transition to the weight of the hybridized O(2p) - Fe(3d) transitions scales with T and has a maximum at around 600 K. The characteristic energies of the thermal activated spectral intensity and conductivity suggest that the concentration of charge transferred electrons from O(2p) to Ni(3d) increases and that the pre-edges account in part for the polaron activated transport.

Iron resonant valance band photoemission spectra of Sr substituted LaFe0.75Ni0.25 O3-{delta} have been recorded across the Fe 2p - 3d absorption threshold to obtain Fe specific spectral information on the 3d projected partial density of states. Compa
rison with La1-xSrxFeO3 resonant VB PES literature data suggests that substitution of Fe by Ni forms electron holes which are mainly O 2p character. Substitution of La by Sr increases the hole concentration to an extent that the eg structure vanishes. The variation of the eg and t2g structures is paralleled by the changes in the electrical conductivity.
We present here quantitative diagnostic tools for cool giants that employ low-resolution near-infrared spectroscopy in the $K$-band for stellar population studies. In this study, a total of 260 cool giants (177 stars observed with X-shooter and 83 st
ars observed with NIFS) are used covering a wider metallicity range than in earlier works. We measure equivalent widths of some of the selected important $K$-band spectral features like Na I, Fe I, and $^{12}$CO after degrading the spectral resolution (R $sim$ 1200) to investigate the spectral behavior with fundamental parameters (e.g. effective temperature and metallicity). We derive empirical relations to measure effective temperature using the $^{12}$CO first-overtone band at 2.29 $mu$m and 2.32 $mu$m and show a detailed quantitative metallicity dependence of these correlations. We find that the empirical relations based on solar-neighborhood stars can incorporate large uncertainty in evaluating $T_{eff}$ for metal-poor or metal-rich stars. Furthermore, we explore all the spectral lines to establish the empirical relation with metallicity and find that the quadratic fit of the combination of Na I and $^{12}$CO at 2.29 $mu$m lines yields a reliable empirical relation at [$Fe/H$] $leq$ $-$0.4 dex, while a linear fit of any line offers a good metallicity scale for stars having [$Fe/H$] $geq$ 0.0 dex.
We present the results of measurements of the dc-magnetic susceptibility chi(T) and the 23Na-NMR response of Na_{0.70}CoO_{2} at temperatures between 50 and 340 K. The chi(T) data suggest that for T > 75 K, the Co ions adopt an effective configuratio
n of Co^{3.4+}. The 23Na-NMR response reveals pronounced anomalies near 250 and 295 K, but no evidence for magnetic phase transitions is found in chi(T). Our data suggest the onset of a dramatic change in the Co 3d-electron spin dynamics at 295 K. This process is completed at 230 K. Our results maybe interpreted as evidence for either a tendency to electron localization or an unconventional charge-density wave phenomenon within the cobalt oxide layer, CoO_2, 3d electron system near room temperature.
Electrochemical oxidation of hematite ({alpha}-Fe2O3) nano-particulate films at 600 mV vs. Ag+/AgCl reference in KOH electrolyte forms a species at the hematite surface which causes a new transition in the upper Hubbard band between the Fe(3d)-O(2p)
state region and the Fe(4sp)-O(2p) region, as evidenced by oxygen near edge x-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectra. The electrochemical origin of this transition suggests that it is related with a surface state. This transition, not known for pristine {alpha}-Fe2O3 is at about the same x-ray energy, where pristine 1% Si doped Si:Fe2O3 has such transition. Occurrence of this state coincides with the onset of an oxidative dark current wave at around 535 mV - a potential range, where the tunneling exchange current has been previously reported to increase by three orders of magnitude with the valence band and the transfer coefficient by a factor of 10. Oxidation to only 200 mV does not form such extra NEXAFS feature, supporting that a critical electrochemical potential between 200 and 600 mV is necessary to change the electronic structure of the iron oxide at the surface. Decrease of the surface roughness, as suggested by visual inspection, profilometry and x-ray reflectivity, points to faceting as potential structural origin of the surface state.
We have re-examined the valence-band (VB) and core-level electronic structure of NiO by means of hard and soft x-ray photoemission spectroscopy (PES). The spectral weight of the lowest energy state found to be enhanced in the bulk sensitive Ni 2p cor
e-level PES. A configuration-interaction model including the bound state screening has shown significant agreement with the core-level spectra, and the off and on-resonance VB spectra. These results identify the lowest energy state in core-level and VB-PES as the Zhang-Rice doublet bound state, consistent with the spin-fermion model and recent ab initio calculation with dynamical mean-field theory (LDA + DMFT).
